The Marth needs to learn that fsmash isn't the only move Marth has.

The Falco needs to learn that he can't make a direct approach like that without lasers (Full jumped/DJ'd dairs, dash attacks, etc.), because he's underclassed in range here (For the love of God, especially when he's under a platform in Battlefield). Don't horde over + B at any opportunity that you're off the edge, and you can hit them with it. Chances are, you won't. Roll less. Roll less. Roll less. Roll less. Roll less. Learn to sweetspot. Learn to DI.

You killed him and wavedashed. That means nothing if all you do is roll back and forth in combat.. Implement it in battle. And I'd suggest reading a sticky or watching some videos, there is a lot you need to pickup if you want to be a serious player.

sweetspot on recovery, don't phantasm straight into his blade every time. Be less predictable, you seem to be infatuated with the dash attack as your approach.

learn to shffl the nair and pull out the laser -- marth has no projectile and you have one of the best in the game.

Wow lots of mistakes... First of all, don't roll so friggin' much. Rolling sucks for the most part, side dodge is better. STOP DASH-ATTACKING!!! It's useful, at times, but did close to jack squat most of the time. Practice SHFFLing, SHBing, and sweetspot the edge when you recover. Don't phantasm onto the edge cuz any decent player will own you. Approach the enemy with SHB's. Marth out-ranges you so laser the mo'fo' and follow with a dair, nair, or a grab at higher damages. It's hard to believe but Falco's jab is a miraculous move, IMO, use it do your advantage. Learn to do shine to dair combo's, they rack up damage fast and can be a little hard to escape. Don't use smashes so much, they have a lot of lag so only use them if your opponent is recovering or if they're recovering from a laggy movement.
