i got some sonic vids :>

[Browny]

so i finally got around to recording a few of my matches against my brother. Im not exactly great at brawl so dont be expecting anything amazing, but i think i do alright :>

i compiled the 3 matches i played today into the one video. looking for critique etc as usual.
refer to the description of the video for things i think are worth mentioning.

i know i should have used more tilts and stutter stepped more, but i just love grabbing too much the u-throw the n-air combo works pretty well at low % too i found out. and i could have edgehogged my brother as luigi at least 4 times in the one match but i didnt want him to throw the wavebird at me again lol

-----
some things i think i should mention here
WTF is up with the power of the sonic punch. does it have a sweetspot or something I dont know about? 1:28 and 5:45, it hits harder than ive ever seen it before, ive i used it enough such that there probably were diminishing returns acting on it. I mean a fresh fsmash from centre of FD KO's mario at 117 with no DI. wolf is heavier, he was at 103% and by the looks of it, that punch would have KO'd him from another half of FD across.

Your not bad, you just need to not use fsmashh so much. D-tilt and F-tilt should be your common moves. I play differently so yeah. We should brawl sumtime, I would love to fight your sonic.

Ike's MUCH slower than you seem to be giving him credit for.

- You shorthop the combo too much. Shorthopping is fine at like.. 0-10%, but after that, do full hops. At one point, the SH took too long to reach where he was/would have been and he ended up escaping. You can use any aerial except D-air for that combo, I think.
@wavebird comment, turn off items, duh.

it could be weird DI, like maybe downward DI making him launch lower/more horizontal.

weird things happen with the f-air too, because of DI- sometimes it semispikes or has launch power like a smash x.x;

overall tips
- looks like you spring in the wrong direction sometimes XD
- spring could have saved you some damage in the wolf fight (recovery)

 

[TwinkleToes]

He DI'd down for some reason and it flattened out his trajectory meaning he hit the blast line sooner. I doubt there's a sweet spot to f-smash given how small it is anyways.

Gimp Ike using a spring, it's much easier.

what do you mean terios? i never gave said ike wasnt slow :/

on another note, the 37% 'combo' (don exits, i know) at 8:50 was pretty awesome imo
