I only watched the one against Peach, but I definitely saw one glaring flaw: random aerials. You were just charging at her without any sort of mindgame or setup. You can't randomly SHFFL some attacks and hope to beat the Peach; you've got to play smart. Also, what was with all the moonwalking? Not really a crit, I've just never seen so many in one match.

 

[Rage.]

I only saw a few things
you flubed a lot of techs that should have been easy
you couldent really connect more than 2 moves

I like how much you wavedash though
and you moonwalk a lot

 

[MikeMoney]

I hope you dont do falcon punch in tourny matches

 

[Sinz]

Dude that is so mucb bs. Falcon Punch FTW.

 

[Pyrostormer]

Lol. Falcon Punch.

 

[Rage.]

I hope you dont do falcon punch in tourny matches

Whats wrong with Falcon Punch
if you want to win you hit them with it
not only does it do a lot of damage and knock back
but its humiliating and destroys your opponets confidence
and once there confidence is gone then you win

 

[Zombie Lucille Ball]

you obviously have tech skill, but yeah. you need to play smarter. randoms SHFFLs don't get you wins.
space your Nairs better so that you can combo out of them and not just fly past the opponent crazily.
Try to be more precise. I saw a lot of short hops when you should have full jumped, and vice versa. You should have been comboing that Marth to hell and back, learn what moves work well into others.

-_- @ end of that sheik vid.

New vid guys! I would suggest watching this one!

 

[Wilhelmsan]

I can't even stress this enough. You're playing too aggressive, and not nearly smart enough.

In that last video you posted, you and marth had roughly the same number of opportunities for combo setups. What won you the match was marth's inability to punish.

Here's some things to work on.

-Fastfalling. Lots of times I would see you hit Marth with a uair, and you would drift back down with him...then you would wait for the next opportunity. NO! Fastfall the uair and jump right back up for another one. Repeat this as necessary until you want to give him a knee.

-Grab game. CF has one of the best grab games and I don't remember seeing you DD camping for grabs, or comboing out of them for that matter. Grabs will win you matches. Check out G-reg's combo thread.

-Spacing. Most of the time, it looked like you flung yourself at marth hoping to land hits. You need to stay out of range of his forward smash, air & tilt. Work some on controlling Captain Falcon. It looks like you have a good grasp of how to play him, but if you were to make him a little tighter with better spacing and some varied approaches, he would definitely be a force to be reckoned with.

 

[halfDemon]

You need to DD camp. 'Nuff said. Oh, and that Marth was really predictable and couldn't punish you AT ALL. He hardly fastfell any of his aerials, and same goes to you. In order to link combos together, you need to fastfall. Don't forget the grab to knee combos either. A grab at 65% should spell death for the Marth... which leads back to DD camping. Use it.

well, i only saw one decent combo (spike, tech chase forwardB to a full jump double upair, that was pretty nice) everything else was really blah. you missed many opportunities to knee to finish your combos, and you missed many combo opportunities.

your moonwalks are pretty weak. sorry to say it, but beign a moonwalker myself, i just wasnt impressed.

your edgeguarding seemed to vary. sometimes it was quite weak, other times you edge guarded quite nicely. i think a bit more practice will solidify it.

as other people said, run around more.

overshoot your attacks less, DI back when you are attacking if you think you will overshoot.

i def. see a possibility for a decent falcon here, but there is work to be done. you have a great jerky and unpredictable movement, use it more. yoru tech skill seems to be alright, im almost positive i saw a gentleman in there, and just the fact that you CAN moonwalk is a good sign.

 

[technomancer]

Needs better combos, faster reactions, movement mindgames, style, out of shield work, spacing practice. Your technical is not down, but you have good accuracy if a bit random, but there are alot of things you can do to refine your game. Everything needs a little more speed IMO as well, and you're getting hit by alot of junk attacks which should be creating opportunities to punish.

 

[Wreckless]

Extenderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

Too agressive, check out AngeloBangelo's guide...it includes the different styles for falcon, this could help.
