I've only been to a few tourneys, but what I've been noticing as I move further into the brackets is that people play a lot more zone-y against my Falco. For example:
-Peaches would float above my lasers, take center stage, and try to get me to trade with their aerials.
-Puffs would either go high and try to punish me when I make a mistake, or they'd shield near the edge and zone with bairs from time to time.
-Marths would use platforms or dash to get me in a position where they can hit or grab me.
-Falcons would waveland onto platforms and come in with knees, nairs, and uairs.
The problem is, I'm horrible on both offense and defense. I don't know any advanced approaches, so I just try to do some zoning of my own with lasers. It feels like, if I didn't zone like that, they'd just take center stage and I'd have even less ground. And a lot of times, I'd just make a mistake, get hit, then get punished. And it's like their defensive play nullifies whatever offense I have and lets them get in some offense of their own with their punish game. It feels like an NBA game where the whole opposing team is full of Scottie Pippens and each person on my whole team is the furthest thing from a Jordan or a Kobe.
Anyone got tips or advice? Thanks.
