Not bad. I can't give that much advice, since I don't main Marth or Link, but I'd say: roll less. You don't roll that much, but when you fight against someone else you might get punished for that. With Marth, try to wavedash into a rightsmash sometimes. And look which DI is best against Link's throws. Now for more advice you should ask someone who mains Marth or Link.

you guys rush into attacks way too often. try to look what your opponent does and adapt your playing style to that. this is the first thing you need to work on. for example at 0:37 the marth just jumps in with a neutral b attack. he misses and link hits him with a front smash. at 0: 47 link is hanging at the edge and comes up with an up b attack while marth isn't even in front of him. marth hits him in his lag with a tippered forward smash.

I don't play link so here's some advice to the marth:

- try to shield more, I didn't see a single shieldgrab in the whole match. grabs are your friend ^^, especially since you're playing marth. for example at 0:11 , the link rolls right in your face and you uptilt. you should have grabbed and try to start a combo. also, after the uptilt link is on the ground and you just stand there. link gets up with an attack and you get hit. if you had shielded you wouldn't get hit and get a free grab in. another option is to dash dance and techchase him into a grab.

- nice edgeguard with downtilt on link's third stock. use this more often against link.

- try to short hop, fastfall, l-cancel more attacks.

- you need some work on your wavedashing, once you get down the timing it's really easy. right now your shield comes out all the time you wavedash ( wich isn't always a bad thing though ).

- don't use the dash attack so much. try dashdancing more into a jump canceled grab.



so in short:

- GRAB MORE!!
- work on your techskill, wavedashing, shffl'ing etc.
- work on your mindgames, adapt your playing style to what the opponent does.


nice fair combo's on link's 2nd stock btw.


why don't you guys come to a tournament?


oh and i want to see more vids
