Help With Marth!

[Supa_Sonic]

I am probably the second best of my friends but there is one marth user i can not beat. Do you guys have any strategy for beating marth with CF?

P.S. I know that Marth should be pretty easy for CF

 

[xelad1]

Marth isn't "easy" for cf, its a pretty even matchup. I don't know how you play at all but you should probably learn how to combo marth well since that is what cf is good at doing... oh yeah tech chasing.. yeah that's good too. I dunno go and watch some videos or something and don't get ledge gimped. Don't you love my awesomely vague advice?

grab combos, chain grab

Good luck chain grabbing falcon

At low percents, try uthrow, rising uair, falling uair, re-grab. THen you can uthrow again to a full hopped FFed nair, and improvise from there.

From 0 to 20-30ish, is a good percentage to uthrow sh nair. You can get him before he hits the ground if you're fast enough. Plus, you can re-grab and do it again if you do practice enough.

The saving grace for Falcon though, is that he has a really easy way of killing Marth.

Uthrow Knee at like 60-90. Its insane how easy this connects. They either eat it, or Double jump THEN eat it. Try it on a cpu or something, and you'll get what I'm sayin. Hope I helped man.

Or they counter it. Avoid this by faking/delaying your knee. Marth is a fun matchup it's not too tough compared to other high teirs.

^ agreed.

though I've never been countered while attempting uthrow knee at the 'right' percent...

Thanks guys i'll try it

if you evr grab them near the edge, try a d-throw into up tilt...doesn't always hit but if it does it sends em pretty far if it connects, its either get hit ot DI away (away from the stage).

also, abuse the light-shield edgegaurd

and dont forget to taunt, ALOT

 

[RaynEX]

& to add to that:

Roll towards the edge so your back is facing Marth, when his up+b hits your shield you'll drop off. If he is in between about 50-70, ledge-hop and dair and knee/reverse knee him. If the Marth's percent is any higher, just jump up and knee.

You could also try wavedashing onto the stage and fsmashing. The point I'm trying to get across is that, as Shin Virus stated - light-shielding Marth's recovery is the way to go on the edgeguard.
