Critique Wanted

[Swash]

I've been playing Smash for quite a while, but haven't learned wavedashing, shffling, and all that stuff until earlier this year. That got me re-interested in the game, so I recorded a couple of matches with my friend. Any comments/criticisms are appreciated.

not bad, you need to counter a lot less, i feel if you get a better feel for your ledge hoping and what u can do with still recovering, like Bairs, use ur second jump after/ before etc, i think it would make your edge guarding much better, also try to cancle out rolling, and not to side step so much. i think this is your next step in improvment.

Ok well I might have no credibility here as it's my first post, but I've been playing for awhile and using advanced techs for quite some time.

Anyway on to the critique.

I'll start with the Marth ditto vid

You dodge roll to much, though it can be useful repetitively changing between 2 spots with the roll will get you grabbed or fs eventually.

Shield Breaker... you CAN use this move to ledge guard, though I wouldn't recommend it... especially against Marth, his recovery will hit you from the bottom first. Also never use it as an attack unless someone just missed rest or when you know you can charge it up for a worthwhile hit. The only real use I've found for this move is getting out of some combos (takes a lot of practice to do). Because it augments flight time and range from dancing blade, sometimes it becomes the better choice.

L-canceling... I remember at least 3 times where you missed it on dair. Work on hitting this more often as if you miss most players will punish it

Taunting... yes its great and pisses a lot of players off... but never taunt 3 times in a row... you're lucky he stood there and watching instead of tiping you.

dfair... use it more often... or learn to if you don't know how... you were defiantly preforming your fair's early enough to do them.

wavedash? Same first two sentences as dfair. Again very very useful



Now we get to the part where I look like an idiot... Well it's just wonderful that I critiqued the wrong player. I went back to check and saw your tag was on second player... not first which I just assumed you were... And if it wasn't 3 am I'd go back and give you tips too... Sorry...

One thing that I remember is to try edge hop dair. There were at least 2 instances in which a kill could have been conceived.

You really ought to make sure that you hit against a sheik when trying to nok them off the stage like you did around 1:30. It really can wreck the match

Well thats fine because now I get the critique =D. I'll take any criticism too, I'm the guy that keeps losing.
