Hai Im Fearless
Smash Lord
2 months into yoshi now, and I'm progressing insanely fast taking consistent top4ish players (hozart, 3, darksonic, plup etc) to last hit in tourney sets, etc. I've discovered many mindgames\trixies\zoning strategies\comboes that I feel all other yoshi's could learn from. I'm currently in the works of making a large post containing all my collected yoshi knowledge which will be mostly my attempt at explaining the advantages of yoshi's movement that aren't being capitalized (notebooks are really helpful for getting better btw). One thing that keeps me going is the fact that I keep finding more and more things out each time I play, and haven't stopped improving since the main switch.
I feel that I'm probably tied for 3rd best yoshi with mind trick at the moment unless there are random **** yoshis out there that I don't know about. This is only based off of vids I've seen of each yoshi and they are mostly old IIRC. This is not to say I don't have SO much to learn about general yoshi play that you guys have already mastered. Things in particular I'm working on recently: setting up grabs with eggs, controlling eggs properly, how to land d-tilt gimps, etc, I'm recording vids today, I'll have them uploaded by tonight.
Have to say though, shoutout to leffen for being my favorite yoshi BY FAR to watch. Everytime I go back and watch one of your handful of vids after training hard I feel that I'm gearing more towards your playstyle. You move faster than any other yoshis I've seen, you're pretty much my idol lol. Super motivating to see how top level yoshi can be, even when not warmed up ha.
I feel like there's a lot the top yoshi players need to learn about nair and movement in general. Top 32 in a national is solid and very respectable, but yoshi could place so much higher if completely mastered without a doubt.
TL;DR - should have vids uploaded by tonight showing why I'm basically top 4 yoshis in the usa\world, and I have a huge boner for leffens yoshi :D
