You will never beat Snake.I've been getting knocked out of tourneys cuz of snake, how can i beat snake?? whats the best way to play against him?
So true and this really does apply to all characters so I strongly recommend maining random until you know how to play most of the characters well. Knowing your opponents ups, downs, limitations, and timing can help you formulate anti- Snake plans. I always beat my rival in serious matches because I know the character he uses (Rob, T. Link, Olimar) even though I'm not as good with as my rival is I learned enough about their recoveries (essential to Meta Knight's edge game) their attack speed (essential to calculate and balance an attack's priority and strength, and weight since as a Meta Knight you must strongly consider how far it is necessary to push back a foe so you know they can recover.Be honest, the best way to beat snake is you semi main snake. If you use snake enough, you actually see him moves coming. For instance, sticking C4 on players, the timing is so precise that it is obvious for knowledgeable snake players to see it coming. Snakes also have limited ways recovering to stage using up B move. Sure, we can use C4 or even use nikita to protect us recovering to stage, but C4 is very predictable and nikita has delay. Of course, as .D0c mentioned don't bother to catch grenade. A.) we time it already. B.) even you caught a grenade that still have 2 secs, the first grenade automatic drops on the floor once the snake player pull out the second grenade.
No need fancy move, and use you sword wisely and patiently.
I only started using meta knight a week so there should be better methods:Hey, guys. I'm picking up Meta and I'm having trouble against Snake's f-tilt and n-air. The f-tilt is the biggest problem for me when he's properly spaced away. He will often f-tilt twice and the second will seem to always beat out anything I do; and I'd like to attack back or punish it. Any tips appreciated.
