Help with timing with IKE

[BrawlLover]

Ike's pretty much my character when I play against other people, sometimes I do well but a lot of times all of my moves miss. Am I missing something? Thanks for your help guys.

Well, don't use high laggy moves... So then, even if you miss, you're not as vulnerable at least... xD

And autocancel his aerials.... His nair cancels if you land before he swings it all the way around him... And so does his bair if you do a rising short hopped bair.... xD

Also, you cant spot dodge the entire jab combo, they can shield it however....

It'd be easier if we had a video of you playing so we can see what you're doing... =P

 

[BrawlLover]

i don't understand what a nair is...sorry

N-air= Neutral air attack.

You jump and press the a-button in the air. The same is for all the other airs except you can use the c-stick.

You probably need to use your tilts and aerials more often...

 

[Kinzer]

You have to use Ike's slow moves when you KNOW you will hit, otherwise it's not worth the risk because it has too much lag, other than that it's all about his few quick moves.

 

[BrawlLover]

mmm, i see, i'll try it as soon as possible, it's just so frustrating when you keep missing over and over!!!! argh!!!!

 

[Kinzer]

It's all about trial and error my good chum, none of us were born to play a good Ike at first, you just have to keep working on it.

The key is practice.

One thing you can do is go into Training Mode and fool around against the dummy. Learn his attacks (how far the reach, how fast they come out, how much time it takes for you to recover...). Then you can try and make him run away from you or dodge or w/e it is. The move onto CPUs that attack back to get more viable experience.

From what you say, you need to work on the fundamentals. You may say that CPUs aren't good practice, but if you are missing or w/e like you say you are, you need to take a step back and get some basic, downright practice in.

Basically what Kinzer said, everyone starts somewhere. Practice is key to get better at anything.

Stop spamming charged fsmash and eruption. If you want to hit with your moves use the faster ones like jab. If you keep spamming slow moves your opponents will catch on and wait outside of the range.
