when edgeguarding, a simple utilt will work instead of going for a shine. either than, or a ledgehopped bair will do wonders as well.

also, you wavedashes could be a bit smoother and longer as well. you look good though, just those couple things

edguarding and movement game

well, your fox is probably better than mine, but one thing I noticed is when you were near the edge and ended a combo with a shine, you seemed to instinctively back in towards the stage, when continuing to pressure the sheiks by going onto the ledge or off the stage was possible. Each time they were then able to grab the ledge.

Maybe something to think about in future matches?

Seeing as you put up a fairly large quantity of vids, I'm basing this largely off the select few I watched. Too much rolling. Too obvious in your approaches. Fast fall your SHFFLs, it makes up almost a half of the name. Especially vs. Fox...

It's incredible to me how much of the other more advanced aspects you've built up, yet you still lack a few fundamentals. A lot of your problems are just awkward choices in judgment (like OVER prediction, where you took the edge, had the Sheik, then when it was evident that she was going toward the edge, instead of basing your reaction off of logic, and what occurred, you just assumed that he would go toward the stage. But it happens to everyone, so, blech), and some other weird things that need to be improved from character specific match-ups (like trying to answer Falco's laser call with... lasers).

The biggest improvement that needs to be made is common sense. Stop playing so instinctively, and start thinking. Like, rofl, when you were waveshining after the C. Falcon RUNNING away from you in the opposite direction. You weren't going to catch him, why try to cross your fingers and hope he'll walk into it?

Think. Watch some P.C. Chris Fox videos, I love his Fox. :3

re: edge-guarding sheiks...just edge-hog, forcing them to land on the ledge. Then punish them in the landing lag (ledge-hopped aerial, up-smash, whatever <_<)
