When I get the rest of my vids up you will see a lot better play style. That was more of an experiment match because that guys marth is ridiculously good and I had struggled with him in a earlier match a few days ago. Also against marth you have to keep your space and bait him into your attacks. Because of his speed there just isn't much time for tilts. I figured before I started posting the vids of me on fire I'd post the vids of me making all my mistakes and struggling get thoughts from some of you others =p
Definitely. I tried posting something like that in an edited post, but Smashboards was being itself, it seems...
Anyway, I for one think that was a fine match. I understand why you would resort to the disjointed hitbox of Zelda's fsmash to outrange Marth, or at least fight fire with fire. Also, the tilts do come out slow, exept for downtilt, which doesn't have enough range. Now for some hints/constructive criticism.
Please, PLEASE grab. PLEASE. That Marth had his shield up for at least two seconds before you ROLLED.
Farore's wind: not your greatest weakness. Well, right now it is, but fix that. You seem to think that you can only go two distances on the ground (straight down, or to the side), when Zelda can go 5. There are times you could have nailed that Marth with a teleport, but flew right past him. Press diagonally down to teleport less distance. I wanna see you kill him with this move later; learn to control it. Oh, and the amount you were using it was okay.
Dins Fire: SPACE. Almost every time you could have tricked that Marth into airdodgeing straight into a Usmash, if you had jumped forward before casting the spell. Also, you ought to consider retreating with the move as well; it buys you some time, and if you miss, it gives you a second chance to try something different.
GRAB. I'm gonna mention it again, because it bugged me that much.
Downsmash: use it. If it's speed you're looking for, this is your move. It ***** his vertical recovery with the angle it sends him flying. You'll find this to be a common KO move.
GRAB.
That's about it. Also, post the rest of your videos in the Zelda Video thread please. We only need one of those, and with Brawl's growing popularity, we don't need two dozen "Rate my Zelda" threads flooding the forum.
