If your fair is getting shield grabbed you aren't spacing properly.
sorry for late response.Lirok:
How do you not play a spacing game? He outranges you. You have to poke D3 with well spaced fairs and tilts.
i agree with this. but you may as well explain what spacing is since you have already judged an assumed definition to be false. only if you feel its necessary of course, not for me though, i believe i lack little awareness to the meaning of spacing.Spacing is essence of fighting games.
If you know nothing else, know this.
Spacing is more then just staying staying away and whoring your attacks with the most range.
if it were only this easy. i question the skill level of the D3s you fight.I play a good amont of 3Ds and basicly alot of them the grab once Dash in with the shield to see if you UB or not if you do they follow up if not grab again.
but for the match up it seem really even or bit more for Marth.
In what matchup do you not have to approach? LolYes this is a horrible Matchup, you have to approach.
SH Fair gets Ftilted by DDD.
SH Fair > retreating Fair gets Ftilted.
DB gets grabbed if the DDD is smart enough to hold his shield up.
Run Shield gets you grabbed as well.
While getting chain grabbed, you can UPB out of it. But if the DDD knows he will wait and then charge a Smash to catch your landing.
DDD has no safe approach to you so he'll just wait and throw Waddle Ds.
You have to get in close and Mix up your attacks so he'll keep guessing.
If the DDD doens't know what to do or how to react, he'll most likely roll and try to grab or Utilt you.
On the positive side, once you start ledging DDD you should have his stock.
Fairing his jumps so he has to UPB and then punishing his landing or going for the ledge everytime.
He only has superarmor going up, on the way down you could even charge a smash if you know where he's going to land.
Getting ledged by continual Bairs is a pain, but if you don't panic and UPB at the right time you should always make it back.
DDD can't jump that high, that fast. So I like to waste my jump early to try and get over him, or at least to keep from getting hit by all the Bairs.
This could result in you getting hit by Uairs though.
Discovering a safe way to fight this character is difficult, simply spacing isn't good enough.
He will just shield and then wait it out, and when your far enough back he'll start Ftilting and throwing Waddle Ds again.
Alot of DDDs are shameless with their shield grabs though, so try not to be predictable and you should be able to avoid getting grabbed too much.
Meta Knight for one. And you don't HAVE to approach a non-projectile user.In what matchup do you not have to approach? Lol
Ya, but Marth dittoes are annoying because neither wants to approach...Meta Knight for one. And you don't HAVE to approach a non-projectile user.
