Hey guys, there is this one trick that I think people should implement a little more since imo Mario in particular has noticeable reasons for doing this. Walkaway F-smash is pretty useful, but if they are a little too close, you'll sourspot the F-smash for like 14%. You could instead do a turnaround D-smash for 15% by Smashing the control stick the opposite direction you are facing right as you C stick Down.

Allows easy instant turnaround D-smashes.

Vato is gonna use that ****ty Dtilt. Next thing you know, its gonna be our most useful move.

Nah..... Dtilt sucks

Hey, I can't watch youtube videos anymore because it says Javascript is disabled or I don't have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I just downloaded Adobe Flash Player and Javascript is enabled...so I'm not sure what to do now because it still displays the same message.

Anyone know what could be wrong?

Until the time we finally meet again...

Everyone hide the women and children when that day comes. =)

I'm also getting seriously good with Mario. I know everything I could ever want to know about this character, and I almost have Mario's technical tricks down perfectly. And my mindgames are SICK. I'm so eager to see how your playstyle differs from mine.

I just need to start placing really well in tournament...if I can find a way to beat DSF and Larry...I'm pretty confident that if I ever find another low tier tourney I could very feasibly win money.

Rofl, Dtilt seriously sucks.

I finally got a new copy of melee! Dr.Mario is soo fun. I might play melee full time.
hmm...guys i dunno whether you all know this already but dtilt has an hitbox which sends your enemy actually higher than uptilt
i'm totally searious, it happened to me twice.
as far as i can remember this hitbox is infront of his head and over his leg
the opponent has to be very close to mario
if you do it currectly you will hear a different hitsound than usal which seems to be quiet..powerful^^
anyway i don't know whether this is already known and i make a fool of myself right know or i discovered somethin' new^^
but this thing is to situational and uptilt is much more reliable^^
can any1 check this?

@ Veggi, I have no clue what's happening. Your best bet is asking that in the Computer Cafe forum.

@Judge, yea d-tilt has a sour spot, and a sweet spot (which is the one your talking about.) I didn't even know it had a sweet spot for a while lol.

I thought it just plain sucked. I'm wondering something, who here punishes with Dsmash? I've been doing it a bit and it really helps.
I punish quite a bit with dsmash. I dsmash out of shield and spot-dodge. It's really helpful and seems to catch opponents off-guard. It's great for punishing rolling!

I've probably gotten into a bit of a bad habit with it, actually. I spam d-smash when when something else like jabbing, tilting, or shield-grabbing would be more appropriate. I'm working on mixing it up, though.

D-smash is one of my least used moves for some reason. I do combo into it from Jabs and aerials and sporadically use it as a punish option from spotdodge and shield.

It's an awesome attack though, and it's pretty safe on block. One thing I should point out is that it has the exact same range as Jab.

Oh random thing I just realized, you can punish Wolf's getup attack (or any getup attack for that matter) out of shield with reverse F-smash. Really useful against Wolf players who like spamming the long range of that move.

I main Mario/Luigi/G&W for tournament. I second Ganon, ROB, Marth, Bowser, MK, Lucas. I think I'm quite legit with my secondaries too.

I have multiple mains since one of my biggest problems in competitive play is maintaining fresh mindgames for a single character.

Ugh... My Mario is getting worse.... I was working on a new playstyle, and almost immediately after left for France... Until the 5th I am getting pretty much no Smash... The little smash I have had has been against my brother, who's not too great and has moveset hacks so half of those games involved me thinking Fair was good from using Pheonix Mario. Ugh....

I need to find some French players...
