Hey samus players. I have, for the third time, picked up samus, and this time i intend to stick with her. Here are some vids of me vs my brother. Comment, critique, and enjoy. :colorful:
I know i need to camp more...it's just more fun to be aggressive. I will learn soon enough

Good stuff against Zero suit.

EDIT: LOL at vs. Bowser on Castle Siege! I'm sure the match would have gone differently if the stage hadn't saved him from the edge hog.

Hmm looks good so far. I do have some recommendations though:

At low % try not to use fsmash, use ftilt instead. Fsmash has terrible knockback so making it weak won't help if you try to kill with it later. It also is slower and has a smaller hitbox than ftilt.

Vs Zelda you got back on the stage a few times when she was recovering. You should use your grapple to regain invulnerability and hog.

Probably just personal preference, I'd say work on setting up more kills with your dtilt and bair.

Yeah i know all of that. It's just...i like bajounking (the sound the zair makes) I also know that one of my main problems is the use of my F-smash at low %...but i can't make the switch from playing melee samus to brawl samus...something is gonna carry over. Especially since i still play melee. Thx for the tip about f-tilt, i had no idea it had longer range. I also need to use fair and uair more >_>

Angled f-tilt is recommended as low and up angled f-tilt have higher damage outputs. 10% (angled) to like 7-8% (which is non-angled). Does angling your f-tilt have any move property changes? Like ZSS if you tilt her f-tilt you can trip with a higher % or something like that.

And yes you use zair too much, might want to follow up with something else. But still very entertaining to watch and since it friendlies it don't matter too much.
