My Jigglypuff

Okay so lately I've been thinking about dropping Puff as my main. I still enjoy playing as her, considering a lot of the locals for some reason have mad respect for me because I use puff. But now my slumping hardcore, when i win, at best its a 2 stock. I had never lost before really as puff, but now its happening more often then i'd like. So what should I do? Drop Puff and persue some other character(continue Mario,Luigi, Spacies) or keep at Puff?

Im only posting this here because I know i can get some good insight from smashers with some real intelligence.

For anyone who says stick with it, I've gotten into a nasty habit lately of going for pound - rest combos, and there not working out, but now I constantly pounds as to my airs. anyone ideas on how to correct this, and please dont say "dont use pound, use airs"
Thanks <3

Play a low tier of your choice as a handicap so you can learn more about how important spacing, control and outsmarting your opponent is.

Perhaps Young Link?

I've been using Kirby lately... I figured yeah low-tier = spacing and quick/effective thinking, plus there both floating...puff balls

What Hungrybox said.

You, Idea, and RestInPeace are the only Jigglypuff mains I can recall in Ontario. Get advice from either of them, particularly Idea because he's more active.

Jigglypuff is primarily about spacing and reads, work on those. If you find her fun, don't let a slump get you down.

If you like puff then keep it. Rest isn't exactly accurate so you shouldn't be using non-stop. When I am jigglypuff, I find that the good ole wall of pain is the best route.

Thanks for the advice guys, yeah I know Idea mains Jiggs,and im going to playing him sometime mid december, so Im gunna get some advice then... its been coming back around... but like, I've been training hardcore Fox, so when I go to Jiggs my timings off, but im getting better at adjusting, im only using a few rests per match, trying to get better with sing-canceling to rests, works meh. My spacings back to norm(YAY)

Idea isn't good at Jigglypuff just watch Mango / Hungrybox videos for strategies. And watch King / Mango videos for combos.

Okay thanks KK, I do see a lot of Mango and Hbox videos.. I mean Mango's OMFG HE WENT PUFF era faded, and Hbox is kind of still a big thing, so videos of them come up frequently. I've been watching a lot of Mango's and Darc's videos... Only because emulating Hbox's style may be quite difficult... spamming bairs

respect for playing puff? where are you from. ha just kidding but you should stick with puff and pick up any other characters that look for for you. i started as link, then went sheik (cause she was good but is still a zelda character), then marth (i thought he was good, which he is) then Puff (i saw mango use her) then falco (i like how he plays). try different people because you never know who youll just have a natural talent for using, but dont just drop characters because your losing a few games

it has nothing to do with the character itself, it has to do with being a wack-*** stereotypical falcon board character johner

which mach dash isn't, lol

besides, why just puff? why not sheik? what about someone who could only beat you with sheik or something *shrug* that's a worse matchup for falcon anyway

you just have a horrible mentality for tournaments. jigglypuff isn't some kind of unbeatable force in the character roster, shes just slow and stupid LOL.
