Are you watching videos? Playing dittos with other Ike mains?

I'm just pretty much playing people in friendlies at my level or higher. That seems to be what's been working for me. Between that and the kind people in the Match-Up thread filling me in on different weaknesses or approach options, I feel like I've picked up a good bit in the last month.

I've been playing with Boss and his crew to get better. When practicing on my own I've been watching San's vids and just working on the combos and other stuff in training mode. I feel like I've improved quite a bit.

Been playing mostly with sort-of serious friends in order to get a feel for what I gotta do, then I plan to hang around these boards, certain streams and Smashladder to challenge people. As for videos, I've mostly been watching Ryo go to town.

Still have to work on some better movements.

I haven't been using Ike that much as I was supposed to mainly because I've been having a lot of fun with Rosalina. I'll work on my Ike skills eventually.

Watching a lot of tournament players and watching what they do. Also been testing other techniques on the easier competitors in for glory. I've come to a pretty good place though, I think now I just need to work on dash grabs, spacing, and better autocanceling.
