That wasnt a condescending comment, I thought your Fox looked on its way to great things. All you need to do is keep playing and you'll get better :)

The most important thing to remember when you record a match is to play it as seriously as possible. Don't try to show off. Also, don't worry about winning, make sure you try to do all the things you have a hard time with.

What I noticed is that your approaches are almost entirely vertical.

There are segments where you do display skills, it just seems like you haven't completely grasped how to use them yet. Which is why I say keep playing, and keep practicing. Playing (more people than your brother will help a lot) the game is really all it takes.

Are they playing for money? Nah, so why should winning matter? I guess it's just a mind set I've developed from playing in tournaments.

When I play friendly matches my primary concern is practicing certain things like wave/drill shining, certain edge guards, experimenting with weak nairs/bairs Up and forward B usage, or I may focus on beating a certain aspect of the other players game.

That's why I say good **** for losing the match, since he went for the shine spike. Speaking of which, Buster, you realize falco's charging animation isn't an attack which makes falco particularly vulnerable? Also, on the topic of edge guarding, when you throw or hit someone off the stage you don't need to jump after them, trust me, they'll come to you.

Which is why I say keep playing. Watch vids of pc/kdj/m2k if you want to develop a competitive fox style. If you want to stick to flashy/fun go with silent wolf and whoever else thinks they're technical. Practive your l canceling, waveshining, grab set ups, and general movement (I couldn't stress that enough)

Don't forget to practice the basics, such as running, different walking speeds, fast falling, jumping (double jumping and short hopping included), and don't forget that fox's moveset is basically fantastic from his jabs and tilts all the way to his forward b. It's really best to develop your own style.

But, if you're not that into melee then, well, whatever.

Anyway, enough bull****, time to take care of business.

actually it was a 25 cent mm.;). i like and understand what youre saying here though.
buster try integrating lasers or SHL in your game even though falcos SHL are better you can still get extra damage if hes farther away. also practice shine spiking you can shine spike falco when hes "charging" his up b. also all approaches shouldnt be from above. your fox has potential, just practice.
