So anything happening in Ny Otg? I'm pretty bored here in Philly and don't really know where to go for some local smash, ugh.

You just need better control over your character.
I noticed you full-hopping a lot when you shouldn't have, and your WD a lot when you don't need to and they look kind of short. Also, D-air is the one aerial that's better to full-hop. Also don't come in from so high with Nair, and try to pass through Marth with it, not in front of him.
Also you should pill and jab more.
Also, you need to tech out of Marth's throws.

You're using bairs and pills correctly, for the most part. You're also getting ample grabs. Need to learn the combo percents, though. Below 60, you shouldn't even attempt dthrow -> fair. It should be dthrow usmash/utilt/uair and follow up from there, comboing if you can.

You shouldn't be running in with nair so much. Throw pills and make him approach you. Learn to wavedance (using wavedashes to space around attacks) and dash dance to grab when Marth lands. Also, try not to full jump so much. Marth's utilt, uair and fsmash will always beat anything you do from above, and it's easy for him to grab you when you land.

You're doing okay. It's a tough match-up. Work on your spacing and tech, and you should be good.

Thanks. I do well against everyone but Marth. I feel very intimidated any time I play against Marth. I get scared that I'll get touched by his eight foot pole.

Man where's your F-Tilt? It rocks against marth.

I went to my first torney last weekend and I lost every match I played in singles and even in teames. :laugh: At least now I know I shouldn't be fooling around with icies or captain. I was surpised how I could fight back against one of the top players with Mario and in teames Doc is a beast.

E: I kept counter picking Final Destination against every character and player. xD

Pills are good but don't forget that capfal is immune to your medicine, he takes crack man. So, you are simply gonna have to beat the **** out of him.

Now if this was brawl, he'd already have checked out of rehab, but meh.

Um... no.

you can definitely catch capfal coming through pills. It's called throw the pill at the right ****ing time so you can do something.

or a usable pill game.

whichever you prefer.

My advice for Falcon is don't try to be hero. You can get off on him, but the chances of you catching him are pretty low. Make him chase you because at the end of the day, he has to actually touch you to do damage. If you can run away while pilling correctly, you'll be alright. Then you just gotta get him off the stage. After that, it's gravy.

My only real annoyance with Falcons is that they always seem to hit the most random knees so my DI is ****ed and I end up losing a cheap stock at like 70.

Yeah, pilling vs capfal and marth is more useful than people think. If you space the pill properly, by the time they are trying to n-air/f-air through it, you can be out of lag and ready to punish them for throwing a move out.

I dunno Ricky, I've been ****** these Tri-state marths for the last month or two now, and I'm talking like MAD good people too.
Man, where are your youtube vids. of you "****** these Tri-state marths"?! I must see.

Man where's your F-Tilt? It rocks against marth.
You mean the same f-tilt that Marth can just flat out shieldgrab NO MATTER HOW WELL YOU SPACE THE HIT. Sucks too, that's like Doc's longest reaching attack in his entire arsenal.

On my 5th 4 Loko and still ****** you.

Well;

A.) I was just trolling you.
B.) You can check out me vs. G$ and me vs. Niko on Youtube. The only other Tri-state Marth is hbk and we've never been recorded (there are other people who use Marth but either don't main him or are not as good as the people I listed, so I didn't bother cause I **** them unconditionally, just ask Swift, his Marth's *** was hurt after the last time he played my Doc.)

Also, if you're using Ftilt against marth's shield of course he is going to shield grab it. No one has ever said Doc's ftilt is safe on block, and any thought otherwise is just wrong. Ftilt is pretty amazing vs. Marth overall, but if you're planning on attacking his shield with (why would you ever do that in the first place?) then you got that shieldgrab coming to you.

Welp, 3rd at FRXIII lost to greenmario and fmm. Awesome. -punches wall-

and melee is (unofficially) gone from FR.

So like, my chances of getting a pimpcup have plummeted to like, 5%. :( I can't even think of another game where I could get close. :( :(

Ah well. I had fun.

****in, u.air juggling greenmario and fmm up and down FD was hilarious. THERE'S NOTHING LIKE U.AIR JUGGLING "THE MAN WITH THE MOST U.AIRS IN A SINGLE SEASON" LIKE A BOSS.

kinda makes me wonder why we've been on this "doc cant juggle" ****. Hell, i've been questioning alooooooooooooooooooot of **** that "dont work".

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It does if you space it right, tho Mario's utilt is unquestionably better.
I did not know this. Though I do like sending peeps off stage with utilt. Like Marths as a lategame finisher at high %, but Doc doesn't really need it for that. >_>

People who say they main anyone not-fox in reality still main fox.

seriously, you start out playing him for fun, then you realize you win more with him. then you wonder why u bothered playing anyone but fox for so long.

A.) I knew that :laugh:
B.) I'll look into that stuff, thanx.

And of course I'll try to grab a shielding opponent if I think he or she is gonna shield.
But Marth's still gay for being able to outspace everything, EVEN BY SIMPLY PUTTING UP A SHIELD DOC'S ATTACKS. I mean Marth already has those awkward attack/dash animations that makes him lean really low to the ground, allowing him to dodge Doc's grab even though Doc's only like a few pixels next to him.

Anyway, don't mind me guys, I'm the Doc main who semi-flames Marth. :laugh:
