How I played as Samus

I always played as Samus in Melee. I would attack by jumping into the air, then coming down with the Down+A attack. I would bank my target into the air, then I would slam them down again with the same attack. Then I would throw in a little trick where I jumped, then pressed A and fast-fell my foot onto my targets' heads. I also did a thing where I would jump and shoot a power missile as I was landing. I didn't spend much time on the ground, in retrospect.

Have you ever fought a good Falcon player? If you have, he would teach you real quick to stay on the ground.

When I played Samus as a kid, alllll I did was down air, forward smash, and shoot projectiles.

Now all I do is down air.
