Yooooo
is there a match-up thread? Tried looking for one but the answers to which I seek have not been solved.

Look, I'm just struggling with the
Peach
Falco
Samus
Marth
mu's respectively.

Any tips, videos, suggestions, anything...
I just want to beat these characters.

i wouldn't put too much credibility into that mu chart because a lot of it just feels wrong. there's zero way sheik-marth is a 7-3 matchup: i've spent time playing both characters, and that's absolutely absurd. at worst it's 55-45. anyways, i think the best way is to just go to https://vods.co/melee and look up people who play the matchups you struggle with.

i'm not going to give you all the things you should look at (mostly because i can't, but also because i think it's better if you look for some things yourself) but here are some:

VS PEACH:
MLG Anaheim 2014 – Mango vs Armada – Grand Finals
The Big House 4 – Mango vs Armada – Losers Semis
B.E.A.S.T 5 – Leffen vs Armada – Grand Finals (note: this is the PAL version; a stronger usmash and a better up-b differentiate NTSC [“American”] Fox from PAL Fox, so if you're going to watch this set, take note of that)
The Big House 4 – Leffen vs Armada – Winners Semis

VS FALCO:
Paragon 2015 – Leffen vs Westballz – Losers Semis
MLG Anaheim 2014 – PPMD vs Mango – Winners Semis
EVO 2013 – Mango vs PPMD – Losers Quarters
The Big House 4 – Westballz vs Lucky – Losers Top 8

also watch sets where foxes get whooped and try to see or maybe even ask someone on r/ssbm or something what went wrong in that set or, if you really need tips, just ask people. studying videos was always more effective for me, though.
take notes.
