I can't beat them ARGH!!!!! spam thunder bolt everywhere, which usually means lots of damage before i can get close. My proximity mines suck since a small thunder bolt kills easily. I can't recover well with thunder (down b spec) spam, and basically am owned all game.

ANY TIPS GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Thunderbolts a problem?

Learn the perfect shielding timing its pretty easy to do now. Don't use the not so secretive mine against pika. Just punish with the knunch.

I train BJJ 5 times a week in Panama (not the US).

Yea, thanks guys, I'm killing pikachu as it is now. I also find it very usefull to forward tilt all his thunder shocks (neutral b's), and just approach with that. Pika's ground game can't compare with snake's.

Yea, nice to see other BJJ guys also.

It's good to know you can beat up the majority of people in brawl (people who play very lightly), and also knowing you can beat up the majority of keyboard warriors as well in a fight.
