Now Disappear
Smash Rookie
I went to a local and this player completely destroyed me. (Keep in mind this was the first Yoshi I've ever fought) any tips for the matchup? Typing this on mobile so expect grammar and spelling mistakes.

What the hell are you talking about? yoshi doesnt have OoS options besides shield dropping from plats and rolling.... you can pressure the **** out of yoshi and break their shield from just jabbing if they dont roll out in which case you can read into a wd dsmash or dtilt to start a combo. only smart yoshi players will light shield you can never really pressure them, but then the dynamic of the match changes. You honestly have no clue wtf you are talking about Mervis, don't give advice when you are not experienced or knowledgeable in what you talk about.In DFW there is a very skilled Yoshi player. He stopped playing Yoshi, but I've learned a decent amount about the MU. Samus wins the match up pretty hard. Getting grabbed is a serious issue for Samus, but if you have even an OK reaction time you should be able to avoid getting grabbed by Yoshi. Yoshi's OOS options are still very dangerous, so avoid going hard on the pressure. If you space out Yoshi, he's pretty bad. Basically playing standard Samus will take you far. Stay grounded, space and missile, and approach for a punish.
I've played a few yoshis, amsa and v3man at apex last year, and there is actually a semi decent one on netplay named jos. If you want to discuss the match up in more detail, just shoot me a PM and I can give you my experience from both sides of the MU.I went to a local and this player completely destroyed me.

Oh i know he is a real ass, i consistently beat him (not lost to him) and tell him to shut up because of how much swearing transpires, however with yoshi mains being hard to come by for experience, he is one of the better options out there for accessibility@ Litt
Jos is a student at NJIT, I live like 10 minutes from there and I've played him quite a bit.
He's really good and he and I have looked into the MU a little bit, but I don't think I know enough to really say anything with weight in this thread. Just thought I'd let the world know that Jos is real as ****.
