So I've been thinking about maining Zamus, but I want to know where her strengths lie so that I can actually be decent with her. I've got a couple of questions and really hope you guys can help me with them.
Most importantly , I would really like new ways to approach with her. As of now, the only approach I ever use is a dash attack followed up by a utilt. I read that this was great because it stopped shieldgrabbers, ( which it has), but I feel that I am being too predictable. It's been a fairly good approach, but I need other options so my opponent doesn't always know what's coming.
My next question is about her pistol. Should I use it a lot or not at all? In some matchups, I find myself spamming it, but in others I never touch it. Is it good to keep out a constant stun threat or should I be worrying myself with other techniques?
Also, after a I use either a dthrow/uthrow, what should I do? I know that the uair is good, but I know that won't work forever, it's far too predictable. UpB is nice too but it's hard to get others to fall for it. If you have any really effective ways of getting opponentsin the air, please share them with me.
Lastly, how do you deal with Ness? It seems like all of his moves have priority over everything else, so I never really know how I should be fighting him. I have to be more careful when I fight him than anyone else because his bthrow kills easily.
TL;DR version: How do you approach with ZSS, Is her pistol important to use, how do you follow up a Dthrow/Uthrow, Tips for fighting Ness?
I really would love to main Zamus, but there are a few other characters I do better with and may have to use them if I can't get Zamus' playstyle down.
All help is appreciated, thanks.
