Smash Hero
Hey everyone! Well, to begin, I main the awesomeness that is R.O.B. and my roommate mains Kirby and Pikachu. I usually don't have too many problems with his Pikachu, but his Kirby is a *****.
Every time I try to approach from the air, I get shield grabbed. Every time I try to approach with D-tilt or F-tilt, he spotdodges, and I get an F-Smash to the face. The second he gets me off the ledge, he B-airs the hell out of me, either racking up a bunch of damage leading into an F-smash once I get back to the stage, or I run out of fuel, although this is rare.
When I get more defensive and camp more than usual, I laser and gyro to keep him away, but usually my laser is weak, with little knockback, and shields my gyro almost every time. I can usually shield grab his approaching B-airs, but he usually ducks under my F-tilt when he approaches, and shields my D-tilt, leading to his F-tilt. He is also really good at shield pressuring me, to the point where his D-tilt can trip me, leading to yet another F-smash. On top of all of this, he resorts to air camping when I can finally get past everything, leading me to have even more problems.
Overall, he is ridiculously annoying to me, and I have no idea what to do to stop him. I can usually get him down to one stock, but he shield pressures me to the point where he can F-smash through my shield.
tl;dr: I kinda suck against my roommate's Kirby, what can I do to improve against him?
Here's actually a pretty good representation of what happens when I play against him, when he does his combos and stuff, but there's more shield grabbing, and I usually lose. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqUXRVN3r3E
