Okay a few things.

1. I know this is vs. a computer and shows no real talent, don't make a post saying just that, because I already know, and you will be posting useless information.

2. I do better when I'm not on camera :p So I'll try making another where I'm not nervous.

3. Serious critiques please..no ''OMG YOU SUKZORZ" or even ''D00D Y00 RoCk''. Although I would never expect the latter ;).

Anyways, sorry for sounding so..serious I guess. Here is the link.

Not much to say, I mean, it's vs. a computer =P.

Although I will say this, if you are getting nervous vs. a computer on camera, you will really need to work on that if you plan to go to tournaments.

So, honestly I know where you are coming from.

The only good competition I get is from tournaments at my local GS. My younger brother and his neighboor friends play me a lot but I wipe the floor with them so it isn't really fun.

If you HAVE to play a computer at least play a level 9.

Technically though you seem alright not that much can be said when you fight a 1 dimensional foe. Not in a literal sense of course. Oh well, good luck have fun.

I have to disagree on fighting level 9s..fighting them gives you a totally unrealistic style due to their inhuman reflexes.

you can practice your tech skill on cpu;s(i prefer a lv1 or 5...)

and check regional zones for ppl that smash near or around you.

The tech skill was very decent, but during the video I saw you going out of your way to do some flashy stuff that was redundant and the stock could've been finished with a simple KO move.

Fight a level 1 computer. Playing Level 9's makes you worse vs humans. Just practicing comboing on popular characters, like Fox, Falco, Marth (Level 1)

Can you give examples? I don't usually try to be flashy if I know I can get the kill o.0

That's what I do.

wow... i like i like....
umm first thing... we are probably very equal in skill, so i cannot rate... i think your doing awesome...
i have a couple of questions tho...
how did you record that like with a video recorder cause its good quality... but a little jumpy... and i did one of these computer matches... thingies, so can you rate mine... its not as good either in quality or length, and i like some of your combos i really gotta start thinking about nairing into shine more often...
oh wait i can criticise.... you tried wavedash edgehogg and killed yourself... dont do that lol

I used to think beating lvl 1s was cool.

Its really not.

You have skill, clearly...but you'll never get a decent critique unless you go out there and play other people. Record those matches and then maybe they'll be more to comment on.

Also, don't dair to dtilt. If you see you're too far to shine and want to dtilt, just stop yourself.

Grab after the dair (which stuns them), then SH shine and JC dair followed by more combos. Just a suggestion. Dtilt, if d.i.ed correctly, doesn't really give many follow-up options.

im sorry man but i have to disagree... i love the d tilt... i think its a godly move, sure its not great for comboability... but its a down tilt... and it can kill at relatively low percents especially on characters that are easy to vertically ko...
but i wouldnt dair downtilt.... i useually shl downtilt... but just cause it says in the guides that downtilt isnt very good doesnt mean that you cant use it lol
oh and grabs after dair arent a good option in my opinion cause the lag of the dair and the startup animation of the grab is too slow and your opponant is out of stun lag by then and can react.... and if its a marth you will be forward smashed
EDIT: oh and fighting level ones is cool... they are the ultimate killing machines... lol
