Hey Fox boards, I'm looking for people to critique my Fox. I played a few matches on anther's ladder with a decent peach player and I saved some of the matches. Half of which, I won, the other half I lost. And here they are

Might as well give you an update.
Hey fellaws, I know I haven't been updating this thread as of the past 4 months, and I'm changing that, this weekend I'll start adding a bunch of videos, and you're all welcome to add in videos that I may have missed after Sunday.

edit:

Sorry, projects. Make that next week when I go on my reading break

I believe this set is an amazing set that shows just how dynamic Fox can be. It also shows what the Bayo/Fox MU is like at a high level. Megafox ended up taking TGC7 with a 3-0 over MVD in this tournament, as well:

SCREW the double posting rule right now.

Hey Guys, Foster here, after having graduated college and paid rent I've decided to be smash active again, for a while.
So Update is going to be happening AGAIN

I promised a bunch of MF videos last time which I didn't put in, and hear my out, that will still happen, eventually, but probably not before the end of July.

As for EVO and CEO, I'll be adding those videos this week, and if you see any of those videos, feel free to post them in here, or PM me then, so I can add them.

Regards.
MOI

I went to a local monthly tournament recently. After not playing for 3 months, I was very rusted. I still ended in 5th; I wouldn't call London Ontario a difficult region, but I was surprised by some players who had improved.

I'd appreciate some critique of these last 2 matches:
vs Sugar https://youtu.be/jJhyRMjrws0?t=6m42s (I picked Cloud game 1 & 2, went Fox game 3 & 4)

Notes:
- I went Cloud because I knew Sugar to be a Mario player 3 months ago. I was not expecting the Villager. I will ask for critique of that in the Cloud boards (though feel free to inbox me if you have anything to offer).
- I was very nervous evidently. Did not line up my Shines by the ledge properly to reflect his jumping F-airs, and messed up trump opportunities and trumps. Also shielded a lot and did barely punished anything OoS.

I'd appreciate if anyone familiar with the Villager MU commented as well, and if anyone would point out any other mistakes I was making or mistakes Sugar made that I could capitalize on.

Now I'm not a high level Fox, so my viewpoint could be completely wrong.

- You were bit unsafe on shield, Nair can be quite safe on shield if you delay using it until almost landing, letting you buffer a jab or fast option, generally struggling to finish him off. In general, a bit too passive? You did almost time him out.
- As... there is some interaction with skid frames and shield from a run (I believe, not sure) walking more with Fox to apply pressure with getting close isn't a bad idea, allows you to get closer for that Nair OoS or Utilt punish in case he keeps throwing out attacks
- If you've watched Xzax vs. Ranai you'll see the MU being played out quite well, and also the importance of reading his Fair / bair pattern, as it allows you to Usmash.
- You didn't really get a lot off your ledge trumping (until the 1st stock on BF), generally you'd retreat away from the ledge when doing it to avoid the shield damage of the turnips, and in general should try fishing with a bit more ledge pressure imo, le 2 frame utilts, and generally there's never any need to charge Dsmash if he's above 100, since it can cause you to miss your kill in case they stall.
- If you're going to space the distance from the ledge, you might as well try using Dtilt more, if tippered it does knock them perfectelly up and combos into aerials


I just feel like you could apply more pressure just by closing the distance, but you played really safe.

Thanks dude.

You pointed out my lack of d-tilt. I need to apply that move more in Fox in general, it's so good and I always get too worried that I won't space it properly. Time to hit training mode and practice it.

Walking is something that I don't use enough either, which should be used in order to make slight adjustments. Fox's walking speed is pretty good, I don't know why I don't use it enough, thanks for pointing that out.

The charged D-smash was nerves. I will not charge it next time though, it should be KOing by that point.
