Sup, i'm a predominantly Greninja main but I dabble with Mac heavily so i'm new around these parts. I figured maybe you guys would enjoy this clip though, nothing really special about it other than some silly occurrences.

Hey, Solreth/Blue Here, I've been maining mac since the release of the 3ds. I work hard in the competitive community. I Thought I'd bring a recent piece of my lab tech out for you guys, in my opinion mac has to be evolve for offstage gimps or will remain trash tier. This is of course very time and character sensitive.

First, Classic forward air gimps weaker recoveries like ganons. Second: Running fastfall down-air kills vertical recovery from characters like robin and shulk. (It goes without saying this gameplay is not without its risks, prepare to tech potential stage spikes). Third: On regrabs, or intercepting a returning fox, dashing off stage and side-b'ing as a return will stage spike them to death. Fourth" There's the old school neutral A to dead combo, and as a matter of fact you can fifth: forward air to footstool at low percentages. The most prized gimp however is sixth: Back air is of course a natural option, but I prefer to use it tandem with footstools for greater effect:

Never forget your lag-cancelled forward airs will strip opponents from the sky for free smash combos. Mac must find air game to stay relevant, even if its merely incredibly opportunistic.

Pawclaw's Little Mac vs. Bolt's Pikachu: [Part 1], [Part 2], and [Part 3]. These were from Pawclaw's stream - they're online matches -, so it might be off and both players could have been doing things differently offline.

Yo, here's some matches you all can mock/enjoy. Two weeks worth of videos across three threads, fun times ahead!

20150307

vs. :4sheik:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQnJy3qaWfE&t=1m10s

I hadn't actually fought a Sheik before in bracket, so this was interesting. Never knew she had a windbox on her up B on landing. I'd attribute a lot of the screwups here to lack of experience.

vs. :4kirby:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZzcf2EykE8&t=3m5s

How do I matchup, guys? I've talked to others, and utilt seems to be a viable option against Kirby. I think I just got too impatient, and that ended up putting me in trouble. The 62% death didn't really help my mentality, but I barely pulled it back.

vs. :4fox: (WF)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyZPRPb9bxI&t=4m10s

My opponent apparently really hates Little Mac, so I think he got flustered this game. Not really much to comment on here.

vs. :4sonic: (GF)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSt3v6T9eqI&t=4m10s

Gotta go fast? Also, no stocks dropped this entire set. Bracket was... weird this week. Felt these matches went super smoothly.

20150314

vs. :4ganondorf:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6EsdNlw_V0&t=1h28m20s

Man, that flame choke takes time to remember how to tech it. I made a lot of silly mistakes here. Don't remember what I was doing when that last hit happened. Also, haymaker is a bad trade move, but both times I used it, I thought I'd win out. More smashes and shielding required. This was the first round I'd lost in three weeks, and I made it up the next round.

vs. :4robinf: (GF)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkyQgwEKYzk&t=1m50s

I straight up told him either he could pick first or we could do double blinds. I was hesitant to go back to Mac if he was going to pick Dorf. He said he'd stick it out with Robin, and I feel that wasn't the best call. This match went really well. I even armored through a levin fair that surely could've meant an easy game.

So there you have it, all the games I haven't had a chance to upload. If you can, give one or two a shot. I promise that there's at least one successful KO punch somewhere in these videos!

One tournament game from last Saturday.

Deepseadiva :4littlemac: vs Mexican Force :4shulk:
http://www.twitch.tv/cosmash/b/639762788?t=69m32s

I used Mac all day! I really love him as a game one choice usually, but I used Rosalina/Peach/Palutena as well in some other matches. Pivot walking with him feels so powerful, not sure why.

This thread will be used for posting videos of Little Mac gameplay for others to view. I will be compiling the videos here on the OP for easy viewing/navigation, and I will try to keep it up to date with video's posted in the thread. However, please specify if the video is before or after patch 1.0.4.
Feel free to critique or analyze the gameplay video's and discuss it in this thread.

As a rule, though, do not embed videos. This is quite harmful to many people's browsers, and can cause browser crashes. Simply put the URL instead.

i agree, no one has really been exploring mac's air game. its not non-existent, its just hiding under a rock. a rock the size of jupiter.

there is no such thing nair to dead though. sadly, nair cannot connect with anything. your opponent is probably just trying mash jump only

you can actually combo the fair multiple times. wall of pain style. dtilt > full hop fair > fair > double jump fair > fair or fastfall jolt haymaker. (amount of fairs is char dependant ofc) i posted a gif of dtilt > fair > jolthaymaker guaranteed kill.

Video of my friend Blue playing against a Diddy Kong. More to come, all of his really competitive matches in tournament and such was deleted with the update. :(

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qPE1cCSVaVg

Any thoughts on his gameplay specifically? Also don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe. I just started the channel and will be pumping out videos in no time.

Who's ready for the bomb drop of all bomb drops of videos? I've got 2 weeks of footage, and this past Saturday was a lot of Mac. As always, critique is welcome. We've got a variety of matches in here.

04112015 - These were a while back, so I can't really comment what I was thinking at the time.

04182015 - I like to call this "Mac feeling himself" week.

Best moment from the past two weeks:

So yes, anything you all would like to say/watch, have at it. I always enjoy having discussion about my characters!

Yo this is a good friend of mine who has come a long way with Mac. The best I've seen and played! His tag is Blue but he goes by Solreth on the forums. He has contributed a lot of time and tech that I have never seen a Mac use as greatly as he has. He is the reason I believe Mac is very much viable. So look out for him. Thanks you guys for your time. And keep up the good Mac work.

-Love Ryo

Hey Ryo, my video I posted was of Blue as well. Jon has talked a lot about you and how you've helped him improve tenfold. I hope I'll have the pleasure of meeting you one day when I hit up Gainesville or if I can make it out to CEO. :)

Edit: That's the video I posted a couple posts up. I told Jon to send me more so I can upload more haha.

Neat video, but nothing's particularly new as far as tech goes. Just solid play.
Needs more dtilt though. :applejack:
