no other team combination has the same raw killing power, gimping power (a rest is basically a gimp), survivability/team saves, and death combos as fox/puff.

When i look at the other "good" teams, they all are weaker in one or more areas significantly than fox/puff.

i seriously dont see an argument in favor of any other team.

arent most peoples fairs gimps? and besides that when i played ganon i used bair and uair as gimps (mainly uair) not often fair, i used fair offstage only when it was set up perfectly, on all other occasions it was a uair or bair.

lemme think. heres a list of fairs i think would most likely kill people offstage (assuming they are at most even with the edge) weegee, bowser, peach, falcon, ganon, zelda, shiek, puff, G&W, marth, roy, most of the other characters fairs could 'kill' them offstage like mario/doc/dk (lol)/ i guess if ness does his fair twice it could gimp fast fallers at a certain place/ link and young link's fair if hit right could kill off the side/ yoshi's could kill if they dont meteor cancel it....w.e you get my point?

mm, before i get further into this, what do you consider a 'gimp'? because from how you're explaining this stuff, your making it out like any move that has knockback can be considered a gimp [which can be true] but i assumed we meant moves with the MOST gimp potential. Because I don't see how all those characters you listed which all have quite different fairs fit.

Do people not understand that GOD! meant that Ganon's fair kills at low enough percentages to be considered a gimp? It's similar to calling Falco's doubleshine off the top a gimp.

However, I don't think Ganon's fair really kills soon enough to be called that. Maybe on Yoshi's.

there are infinite mindgames in this game, you can't really list mindgames off, that would be defeating the purpose of a mindgame.

not sure what you mean by defensive tactic..as in shield pressure? or just not being the one to be on the offense?
if the 2nd, then lasers. lasers and more lasers. learn SH double laser.

then some nairs into usmashes ;3

try to bait peach to d smash or pull out a turnip..after the d smash u should know what to do and while she is pulling out a turnip, it is easier for you to approach since she cant d smash..baiting..

how to bait - you have to figure out on your own or study vids and see how others bait

Yo, heres Chexr vs Tink at this Wisconsin tourney that just happened... basically i wanna know what he did wrong vs tinks marth, cuz it's a matchup i struggle with as well. its just so hard for me to stay zoned away from marths attacks and find holes in his move set to get a grab.

No he just plays really old school like one of the commenters on yt said.

And he got punished really hard for every mistake he made.

In neutral position he was getting read consistently in terms of his spacing and movements.
(He never sh naired though)

He played really aggressively, especially after he got the first hit in, and from there he would try to create combos that didn't exist --> then he gets utilted or something similar, death.
