Help, Vs. Samus

[Epsilonis]

I always play Smash over my friend's house, and his main and best character happens to be Samus, IMO the most annoying character. I really need tips and info on the best way to approach Samus on a good foot to lead in to combo's, or anything that doesn't involve missiles exploding in my face. I'm fine with punishing and edge guarding but just starting off on a good foot is hell. Sometimes I shffl into missiles or energy blasts ending up in death or death from Samus' nair. I've played him for about 2 years now, both of us starting from nubz to actually utilizing advanced techniques. We both know eachother mindgames, so I could use some marth mindgame ideas. The thing is he gets more practice than me since I don't own melee, and rely on goin to his house and playing him and other friends. On a side note, I suck at trying to deflect projectiles with shield. Something I need to practice for sure. Help is appreciated, thanks!


P.S. Can Samus be chain grabbed by Marth? if so what grab and rough percentages, thanks.

A pretty knowledgeable player we on the marth boards call UMBC describes pretty good strats and techniques on beating Samus.

There ya go dude, but next time you have a question or something, you don't need to make a new thread. We have a thread called Q&A thread, and you can pretty much ask anything in there. Enjoy

Yay for lack of clutter. BTW we should bump the Q&A thread every once in a while in case people don't post for a while. Or better yet, we can have it stickied

No, NEVER have it stickied. Its odd, but people seem to view stickies which have been posted on a lot, less than threads with a high post count O.o. Oddly, making it a sticky would reduce the number of viewers, hehe.
