Masashi (Japan's Best Pit) Videos

[Tikun]

Yap, nice videos.
I'll try to get my spacing better with this guy ;]
Thanks though

Spacing dair is crucial. But to be completely honest, he's playing against scrubs. Japan really isn't good at this game. Gnes would destroy him, quite frankly. They aren't playing right against Pit.

You can't judge skill based on a video. Adaptability is near impossible to judge from a video. Masashi isn't # 1 for no reason.

Masashi's air camp is top notch, very good at baiting the opponent with his jumps. I don't think he even camps with arrows that much either, but just the right amount. It's amazing how well he does in Japan though, while he's obviously amazing, it's hard to believe he's 2nd best in Japan.

Did you see his matches against Snake?
His ledgecamping is real impressive ;D

Ya I'm pretty sure why he does so well is the fact that he's amzing at harassing from the ledge, while not being punished for it.

Esca's jealous of Masashi!

 

[Valuno]

Yeah he's good at ledgecamping, but basically every pit player is now. He just happens to gauge his opponent's actions better and react better than others. I guess that's why he's so good lol...

Well, I'm decent at ledgecamping. I still need to practice it.

I'm not really sure wether to avoid it or not.
It seems like a form of planking, and I don't want to be hated on for "planking"
even though I'm technically ledgecamping.

 

[Valuno]

I guess it depends on the matchup, like against Snake it's almost necessary to do some ledgecamping.

if anyone else has any vids of masashi, i'll put them in the OP

 

[Admiral Pit]

Not every Pit is good at ledgecamping. I have played many Pit players and some don't even ledge camp. Some of them tbh are just poorly developed atm, and I'm slowly losing my will to help them.

Masashi is a great Pit to me. Even though this isn't Pit's true potential, but he has many of the BASICS down, and is great with spacing.
All we gotta do is build up from there, CG some chars that Pit could CG (Donkey Kong, Snake, etc.), or that F-throw to stutterstep Fsmash against some other chars (Metaknight is one) if granted, learn the matchups, and just improve. That's all we need. No fanciness at all.

 

[321BOOM]

Masashi also has a well-developed hit-and-run technique.
I find that pretty important to know, since it stacks upon pit's pressuring gameplay.

I'm wondering how we got these videos, someone that speaks both Japanese and English? O_o

 

[Admiral Pit]

Oh yea, I forgot to mention to add some Pivot grabs to our style. As long as we can predict where the opponent will end up before they land (this is one situational example), we can grab them, and continue pressure. It varies with the situation.

 

[321BOOM]

Right ahead of you ;D

I went to practice at my friend's house friday, and I was pulling off some pivot grabs.
You were right about the extended grab range, but it's still a little hard to do.

Does Masashi use pivot grabs? I havn't seen any.

 

[Admiral Pit]

I don't think he does in those particular matchups, but regardless, we should not completely act like him. We can learn from him, and build off some styles to our liking, but I would still not go on them fancy styles, for it ruins us.

 

[321BOOM]

Agreed.
I just asked, since this IS a thread about Masashi :3

We should follow his example, somewhat, though.

so...any other masashi vids...lol

Those were in the video archive.
But otherwise, nope. I don't live in Japan T-T

 

[Valuno]

The URL contained a malformed video ID.

Ack. x_x

 

[Admiral Pit]

Val's right, I can't see the vids.

 

[321BOOM]

My apologies

I fixed it ^_^

EDIT: The 1st vid against Ganbaranai, it says the game is Masashi Vs. Nagahari(in the description box).
So, I'm not really sure which Diddy player it is.

 

[stingers]

is it good now? OP is updated with everything

 

[321BOOM]

You know what,
the first Ganbaranai vid exactly matches the Nagahari vid you posted.

The video archive lies.

 

[stingers]

aight deleted the nagahari vid

 

[nightmar3]
