Hey there, i was wondering if i could get some feedback on my matches since i got a few on stream last night.
Here is a pretty serious MM, against a Ganon of equal skill" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ywe...CWiRVo2Wsa_Ifkc-UzbHaXz78&index=15#time=9m00s
time stamp is 9min if it doesn't work.

Here is a way less serious MM with Pooch. This was mostly just for fun, but there are some decent gameplay moments in here too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COny6sCvmSk&list=PLdmNvCSwCWiRVo2Wsa_Ifkc-UzbHaXz78&index=14

1) Keep Practicing
2) Learn to play neutral
3) Kinda upset you lost go that Ganon because I think you're waaaaay better than he is.
3a) You applied very good pressure on him, just because he allowed it. This is good. Where you messed up it seems is that either you began to auto pilot or you were being too aggressive.
3b)(See points 1 & 2) and play a bit sharper. Learn when to stop for a moment and bait approaches you can take advantage of. Again, it was good that you were on top of him but that also lead to some pretty bad blunders and positioning.

Vs Pooch

Thanks for the feedback, but could you be more specific about "learn to play the neutral" . That phrase in itself isnt that helpful.

Sure thing. Learning neutral is always a work in progress and takes a long time to master.
I always refer to a handful articles for this.

Footsie's Handbook

I'm aware these are centered around Street Fighter, but it applies to a multitude of fighting games.
