fine fine i hadnt tried any of this out before i just wanted a handy reference for quick decision making. good marths have traditionally been very creative, so this little "guide" was meant just to be sort of a "let me try to outprioritize what hes going for with this this one time," which can of course get predictable and not always work.

but by proper spacing i didnt mean tipper/non-tipper, i meant simply baiting the DA, as in staying far enough away from the DA to be hit by it, but of course everything i described can be read.

w/e forget it

DI fthrows down and away if you're not at 0%. You will be able to tech before the fsmash hits you.
Do this even if you're at 0%, you'll be able to land and shield/spotdodge/roll before Marth can regrab/f-smash. If he's not timing his followup pretty much frame perfectly...you can even grab him out of his followup attempt :p

i greatly apologize for my poor choice in audioswapping

but yeah, that should be a pretty good match

taj does pretty well maneuvering the match against M2k, but m2k's combos and edgeguards are just too ridiculous.

eh, audio swapping is a hit or miss thing it's no biggie as far as I'm concerned lol.

But it's true; Azen vs Ken is good, but if you want to see Marth dittos at their current meta-game it's Tec0 M2K Taj and a few more.

As for you Tai, your Marth is pretty dam legit too. :)

As for me, i love Marth dittos, but it's an awkward match-up. I either **** or get ***** lol.

I didn't make it to Pound, things got in the way. :ohwell: I watch a bit of you vs Darkrain though (gotta watch the rest i've been busy /johns)

I would've played Mewtwo against you at some point so you'll remeber me if we ever do get to play... ;)

But yeah, Marth dittos. Love/hate relationship with the match-up.

just putting this out there.

and posting like MaNg0.

That it would be a different style of M2 (Inferior sure, but different)

and I might surprise yOu.

Not saying I'd **** you, and I detest the Marth M2 match-up

but you vs my M2 would still be ON!

it's always fun unless your M2 gets *****. /MaNg0 posting.

Yeah lol I forgot about those (The Forward vs Taj matches), you or I should dig them up eh? I love Marth dittos because they're fun, but I hate them when random *** stuff happens. they can be just plain weird.

For a marth ditto, is trying to grab your opponent a good thing?
I played a marth ditto, and sometimes we try to grab each other, but other times we just try to fair each other.

M2K vs I.B was actually a pretty good set
Meh, I guess so. I'll get him next time. :mad:

Yes.

If your opponent is spamming early non tipped fairs or nairs at low-mid percents, stay grounded and CC grab them or f-smash them if it'll get them close to/off the edge.

I like to f-throw tech chase at any percent that isn't 0%-12% ish (uthrow -> followup usually yields better results). If you can't start a juggle for some reason, get the grab and when you go for the tech chase, try to push them to the edge. Whether it be a d-throw, or a f-smash tech chase or dash attack to fairs, etc.
