Leveling out with Ganon

[Devil7]

Ok iv'e mained Ganon since well..... um well since melee was released. Anyway its not any different in brawl and i love him because he is bad***. Anyway I seemed to be hitting a skill cap that i can't just seem to get over and beyond. I don't lose regularly I just win like i would want. I surfed every thread in this forum and tactile discussion for advance tacticts and techniques, but still can't seem to get increasingly better.

Can you mindgame out of flame choke?

Flame Choke is his neutralizer, so if you can gain control from that point (eg, do flame choke out of shield- in the right direction), you can at least punish your opponent really well. -__-' I can't do it well myself, but I've seen what some good Ganondorf players do out of it, and it's pretty impressive.

Can you do semi-spikes out of u-air, juggle, etc.?

IMO most of Ganondorf is mindgame and punishment, not so much speed as the L-cancellers were in Melee.

Ganondorf is a defensive & punishment character. Your peak is going to be when you can predict/avoid, and punish every attack your opponent makes.

If you know the techniques, you're only going to get better by fighting as many different people as possible. Keep your eyes on the other character and not Ganondorf. See where their lag is, and what you can do to take advantage of it.

The area i need improvement on is chasing his flamechoke well. I got thunder storming down, and shutter stepping, and well as spacing and timing. Is there a way to get really good at chasing.

Or, try a more achievable approach and try to notice their tenancies after flame choke. Your opponent may tend to wake-up attack or something and you punish appropriately.
