but that doesnt help me get around the fact that she can just platform camp me and **** me if i get within ftilt range and theres nowhere safe for me to retreat to and i always miss my rests x.x

by his sheik
The way I take stocks off of alex's sheik is to condition him and then bait the needles, then start a string of aerials and either combo into uair>rest or get him offstage, whichever is more practical.

Tech chase rests are the easiest to set up on sheik, utilt is the most reliable but its hard to land a utilt unless you shffl uair into utilt.

i thought shiek was supposed to be easy to rest

or at least you should go for it a lot

because shieks best punish isn't that great

Just because you dont have to be scared of missing doesn't mean you have an easy way to land it. All the matches I win against alex's sheik are the ones where i get 2 or more rests though i guess.

so i guess omni is taking melee seriously?

word up bro
Basically the only 'john' ive had for not starting sooner was that no one near me could teach me/play regularly with me. Now Foxy is at NCSU so im good to go, plus as long as i get good he said he'll team with me and since he is good enough for us to place at small tournaments thats incentive enough for me.

foxy is too good...

i really need spacie practice...

nobody is sp can pressure with those guys like other people can...
I mean obviously the most important part of that matchup is tope chasing so just watch M2K and see what he tech chases out of dthrow with and practice that stuff.

when the dudes have a frame 1 move that starts their own op combos it is pretty difficult...

m2k says to guess early, as opposed to react, and up smash
