Greetings brothers and sisters of the Yoshi Army:
This is my first post on SB, and I'm happy to be part of the community. I had a nice round of matches against a Sonic in arena and he gave me a sound whooping with his Side-B (the roll attack) into air combos until I was able to take a breathe and change up tactics. Here are a few tactics that gave me some space:
1. Our new up-B thrown close up so that it rolls on the floor. This move was able to cancel Sonic's Side-B every time. Although it didn't hurt him, it stopped him completely in his tracks. It's amazing how useful this move can be, as it basically gives us a completely horizontal projectile when we need it.
2. After some tinkering, it also seems we can grab and command grab (neutral B) when sonic is rolling at us with various attacks. After doing the above two several times, Sonic's game completely changed and I was able to take two sets.
I know this may be old news for some, but I thought it would be nice if anyone else had trouble with this match-up. Does anyone else have insights on how to beat sonic?
