It's difficult to give an honest critique when the Metaknight you faced was awful.

Your Ike looks good - however - against a good opponent - especially a good Metaknight - you will be punished for some of the moves you did against this poorly played Metaknight.

Overall your game seems pretty good. I'll think that your f-airing is a bit excessive - your opponents seem to have picked up on it and know when it is coming. Is there a reason you don't use sideb's at all vs meta? It seems like a good alternative approach since meta has no projectiles, especially if you short hop it.

I think you try to utilt a little too much as well. The move seems largely overrated, and a lot of the time in the videos you missed and got punished for it. It seems like usually you should instead either be usm-ashing or short hopping into a n-air/f-air.

Finally, have your opponents learned to DI out of up throw into aether? If not, you should teach them. :chuckle:
