I cannot critique Aarosmashguy.

I may be struck with lightning for questioning anything done by my lord and saviour.

Hey sorry I took so long to get back to ya. My bad. Ok so I watched your match on Pokemon Stadium. You do a lot of nairs as an approach. I'd recommend switching it up and use some SHFFL dairs as well. Dairs can't be crouch canceled so its important move to use. At 00:27 you made an extremely risky recovering move. I guarantee that if you were against a Falco with better edge guarding you would have been dead. Remember to always sweet spot. Using your second jump close to the edge at high percents isn't a good idea. If you find your self in a situation like that again...simply fall towards the edge, come down with a nair (more priority) instead of dair, or simply air dodge.

Ok now for your final match on Dreamland. Using forward smash isn't really your best option when edge guarding. Get into the habit of using forward tilts. For one, forward tilt is pretty quick, meaning if you do it too early you have a much higher chance of doing a second forward tilt then another forward smash. You have to stop double jumping so close to the edge when you're at high percents. Its going to get you killed. Again, just fall to the edge, or air dodge. For mindgames sake...you could simply just land on the ground. Any of those options are safer then double jumping.

Overall you aren't too bad. Just work on your edge game. You made a lot of silly recovery choices but you survived because that Falco's edge guarding isn't that strong yet. Remember to use SHFFL dair more.

Keep it up. XD

your fox is really good



the only advice I can think of is to make it faster.
A lot of times I see you backing off when you should be following up, but you make it for it with smart play, good move choice, and a weird style (you still main falco, right?). Focus on being more precise, not letting up during combos, and playing aggressive when you should be instead of trying to read your opponent THEN follow up.

Fox is a fast character, remember that, and he can do lots of moves when other characters (like falco?? lol) can't. Make it work for you!

thank you for your tips. I appreciate it.

I do have reasons for what I do though. I shield and wait for an opening when i fight falco's with fox. I know fox is fast you weirdo ask someone who knows me how fast I can shine like Raynex or Silentwolf.

personally I don't really like sitting in shield vs falco

I used to a lot and then shine out of shield after they did something, but basically
you're still in your shield vs a falco, and that's generally a bad thing =/

if they realize what you're doing and start to limit your options accordingly (instead of going straight at your shield with shine > dair, etc) then the matchup gets pretty difficult

You are too blatant with your approaches. You run in and grab without trying to mix it up or trick him usually. Because of this, you missed alot of grabs and got hit instead. Also, jab less and shine more. If you intend to use Fox at top level, you'll get CC shined by most pro Falcos. When you knock Falco down with shine, chase him down and do big damage. Overall, good **** Aaro.

your waveshines are the ****! lol

But I think that falco wasn't that good, or it wasn't a good day for him perhaps.
