I started playing SSBM back in feburary of this year, I picked up samus full time about a month ago, i think ive come a long way since i first started playing the game, im hoping to improve and become even better, so i have some vids uploaded, and i would like some advice on my gameplay, and how to improve it.

your samus vs marth is pretty good, better then your average player. If you want to imrpove stop playing like a responsive samus (one where only does a certain if the oponent does a certain thing). I think you need to improve on just going into the offensive when you get them into the air. Your edgehoging skills could use some work too. Spot dodging spam doesn't work if you spam it lol, let the marth hit your shield when he decides to forward smash, then wavedashout of it and do whatever move you like. When you're doing your bomb recover don't double jump first. save your double jump to when you get closer to the ledge so it doesn't become a waste, and you can save it to do a nair out of it or a fair to attack them. USE MORE FTILTS! ftilts are the most destructive move that samus has haha. well it racks up good damage and is alot faster then alot of moves. if Marth tries to forward smash you a simple kick beats him. its just that simple. USE AIRDODGE THEN GRAPPLEHOOK into the wall, it gives you a good distance and it can save you from being spiked. Plus if you are going to use UP+B and you see that your oponent has rolled a bit early go for the edge instead of landing where they want you to and eating a forward smash. You should also charge up a shot when coming back, you can use it on people who charge smashes and make them eat it to make sure you have a safe recover. but good job btw your samu
