Help for a new Marth player

[Metroid475]

Can anyone and everyone post a list of Marth's combo or any other things helpful for a newcomer. I'm trying to make Marth my second and hopefully my main instead of Samus. It's kind of hard to be Marth for me without knowing his combos.

Rather than learning combos know when to use what. This is where the Marth Video compendium comes in (or FE Lord's video corner), watch when and why they use f-air, n-air, u-tilt, etc.
Some things to ask yourself: Why did he choose Nair over Fair?, how high was the opponent's health?, how close were they from the edge?, What was done immediately after the attack, How did he approach?, What was the opponent doing?, Where was the opponent?

...and stuff like that...


Other than that, you need be able to SHFFLC your F-airs really good. Also you should know how to follow up a F-air with something.


Basically, you need to be more spontaneous I suppose...

Good to know you are making the transformation to a piece of ___ character, to a good one. Samus is garbage. Marths combos are insane...once you get used to his spacing and how to do it well.

yeeeea... but samus' extended grab is cool. anyway combos...

my fav one would be
grab upthrow (repeatrepeatrepeat)
at 30%:
if escaped by DI, use dash
if not, u-tilt
uair
bair or fair depending which edge is closer
alternate between fairs and nairs
at the edge, dair

anyone see a problem in this combo?

Always wave dash and trick your opponent you want to be controlling the field. Faster chars like fox and falco will be in your face so watch out. Play falco players so you can get a better marth player. If some one is floaty just them in the air and keep using combos on them. Fox and falco can be chain grabbed like stated above. His F smash takes over ledge real good. Alot of the combos are f airs.

Thanks for this thread, I've been trying to figure out how to improve myself as Marth as well. I don't consider myself good yet.
