So I'm just recently trying out Marth as a new main and am having a lot of difficulty with double retreating fair (ie: run one direction, jump while facing the same direction but moving the opposite, fair and then fair again before hitting the ground). I can get the jump and the fair out of a dash dance but I can't get the second fair before hitting the ground. Normally I use x or the control stick to short-hop, but since I have to use the control stick to get the retreating jump I'm forced into using buttons for the jump (otherwise I'd just use the control stick to short-hop, in which context I can always get the double fair, or fair -> waveland since it's not retreating). I have managed to get this working when dashing to the left since it's one motion to go from x to a left fair, but when moving to the right I'm completely stumped because getting two motions down in that number of frames seems impossible.
So.. yeah. Has anyone managed to do this without a claw grip? I really don't want to develop an entirely different grip just for one tech..
