Fox needs to win evo/genesis 3

#freeunknown

What if Armada was there?

 

[Geez]

So who was the highest place ing fox player at apex ?

 

[Ziodyne]

Silent Wulf

Fox's matchups are hurt every time he does not place even top 9 at a national. In reality, Fox only loses 1 MU, so he is like Superman on paper (one kryptonite).

Fox's metagame is hurt every time he does not place even top 9 at a national. In reality, Fox only loses 1 MU, so he is like Superman on paper (one kryptonite).

Do you know what "metagame" even means?

Sorry, meant to say matchups. Metagame is a strategy used for a character in order to win.

When I played I aways top 8 with fox so that's not true

I meant at Apex.

 

[Geez]

O ok just sayin

But fox is the hardest character to play consistent with all the time thats a sure fact

 

[voorhese]

^ I think falcon/ic's are a close second though tbh

 

[PK Webb]

That would still make fox the hardest to play consistently lol

 

[KirbyKaze]

Fox boards are the old Falco boards.

Meh. It was gonna happen eventually.

 

[Geez]

What so u mean by that KK cause you play the easiest char to play good with all the time

I take that back the second jiggs is the first

 

[voorhese]

I wasn't disagreeing. Just pointing out that IC's and falcon follow him. And they have a hard time placing top 8 as well (minus a few specific people)

I also ate too much bad food for my sensitive stomach... after barely losing to hbox I just crashed. I sat on a chair with my eyes closed for more than an hour and just tried to make my stomach pain go away ( I really shouldve been getting comfy with my new controller during this time), and I had to go straight to playing Javi.

Hey before you said you didn't respect people with bad health. Or maybe it's organ-specific?

Nah, Peach is definitely the easiest.

Alright, this is probably a stupid question that has been answered already (or is well known) but I don't have enough days to look through the past 1905 pages.

Anyways, I was wondering if you had a name for -and any info on- the technique that turns fox's over B into a sort of dodge or a weaker attack when you press B a second time. I just discovered this an hour or so ago when I was mashing B, and I've been trying to nail down the timing.

 

[Voltz]

Yes, but he is solid in some MUs. Too bad tech skill is hard to keep on point.

 

[Geez]

For real that's y when I did play I aways try to stick to the must simple **** so that I don't mess up so much

Cause in top game play 1 Mistake = a stock

yea you can cancel the illusion at 5 different lengths if you press B at the right time

marth tips?
I don't really know what to do when he's patient.

 

[rjgbadger]

be more patient

 

[~Twitch~]

dd bait to get him to swing

then beat the **** out of him

if he's patient then you probly just have to wait a little longer than usual for him to swing

so basically

be more patient

 

[Geez]

I don't have any Webb lol

I liked this set with SW. The Neutral position while pewpewu holds his shield and then grab in game 2.

 

[Goodin]

I have been playing melee in tournaments for about 9 months or so, and I feel like I have achieved a pretty good technical level on my fox. I am still unclear on a few of his more advanced techniques. How the hell can I get fox to moonwalk? I can moonwalk fine with captain falcon, but I cannot seem to do it with fox. What separates his moonwalk from falcons in terms of button input. Is it a speed thing and im not doing it fast enough?, or is it that you move the analog differently? Another technique i would like to get down pat is turnaround waveshines. I can turnaround waveshine edgehog, but i cannot turnaround waveshine > turnaround waveshine. I know both of these techniques are mostly for flashiness, but i feel like that if i can get a feel for everything difficult and flashy, it would look good as well as giving me a confidence boost. I want to take a few characters to a high level of play, fox being one of them, and to me that also includes being able to do all/most advanced techs with him. If any of you can share with me how you do these techniques, i would greatly appreciate it.

I'm not sure which moment you are referring to, but that was a great set. Good work Silent Wolf!

 

[Lovage]

SW is the best Fox in the USA & canada


gucci-san and toph and me were going HAMburgers during that set live

If you know he's gonna swing for sure you can just run up and shield it.

 

[unknown522]

Goodin's post is too good!

Maybe someone will give a good answer

 

[PB&J]
