Hi, everyone I've been lazy and haven't been on in awhile. But I'm gonna start recording matches against one of my friends so I had to clear up some space on my dvd.
So the vids are currently uploading on youtube, its on 9 out of 12.

Check them out at:

So constructive criticism is welcome. And I guess I should point out that these matches were right before I played n00b. And I'll have a few more coming up of matches after I played n00b. I think I've learned my limits X(... maybe.

Oh and there are some people I said I'll play before, I"ll send you guys pm's later. If anyone else wants a match just pm me or something.

You know, I don't consider Wi-Fi the real deal, since you are unable to perform better online. Still, I have been waiting to brawl with you, VirisKnite, even though I have quit Wi-Fi. (Yes, I know, Hive and Ravin, if you ever happen to read this.) A few Samus dittos would be interesting, especially if they could be posted on YouTube! (Yeah, I only have like four videos, three of which are my Samus, but no battles between me and someone else.) I'll add constructive criticism after I watch the videos. It's you and Life, right? Oh, and it's good to see you again, by the way. You have popped up here for quite some time.

I noticed in your matches that whenever you grabbed your opponent, you never used the Chozo Chop (tapping "A" while your opponent is grabbed by you). You could get in additional damage on your opponent, even though it's only 1% for each hit. Still, Samus chops very fast. You also used Bombs when it was unnecessary, though you did well to use them when you were coming back down to the stage. Now, it may have been your connection or your friend's connection, but I noticed that you'd jump a bit high and attempt to use d-air or z-air. Hopefully it was the connection. If not, try to practice a bit more on short hopping. I found that if you did a short hop backwards and then used your z-air, you could use it more effectively. This way, while you move backwards, you can move forward a bit once you're about to use your z-air.

Yeah, I think I was just starting to work grabs into my game in general at the time. I use the Chozo Chop now :). And I noticed that was going a bit crazy with the bombs. Some of them gave me pretty good setups, but then I'd... just plant another bombs and waste the opportunity. And while my short hops offline could use some work the lag/delay online doesn't help. Either I'd full hop or not jump at all and go straight into a grab. Kinda frustrating, but yeah thanks for the advice.
