I watched the Pikachu videos. Don't charge your F-smash like that. It makes you way too vulnerable, and also makes you predictable. In the first video, you kept trying to Magnet Pull even though your friend was right next to you. If they're stopping it, stop trying it.

learn to tech the ground. in the link video you got locked multiple times. stop using PKT2 as an attack. it sucks and it's nowhere near as good as ness' PKT2 (attack-wise).

Ya. Now that i think of it, i do use PKT2 too much as an attack.

And i will definitely work on teching.

Thanks

Against Pikachu, you might want to time your PK fire a little later after you shorthop because Pikachu while dashing is basically ducking and a normal shorthopped PK fire won't hit him. Another thing, use your tether more when you are near the edge because sometimes, you were right next to it and you used PK thunder to recover and left yourself vulnerable.

Also, when versing Link, you might want to be more cautious at approaching instead of just approaching head on. Link, unlike you, has range from his sword making approaches a little harder to pull of without getting hit. Another thing, don't use short hop Down air, do it fullhopped. The landing lag afterward is terrible... You do know you can catch bombs with aerial dodge and and aerial right?

You shouldn't Downsmash them if they already grabbed the edge cause the person still has invincibility frames and would just need to do a ledge attack to get through it and deal some damage to you. Also, when you you use grab, you shouldn't keep using it if you miss. Lucas's grab is terrible when missed and missing it again and again just leave you very open for a Kill move.

In the second Pika video, you seemed to almost suicide in an attempt to edge hog. Basically when you are at the edge, tap the control stick away from the stage when you are at the ledge and then when the character starts falling, tap the control stick toward the ledge. This should result in you grabbing the ledge. Also, when you are getting up from the ledge, you can mix up jumping from the ledge and doing a Down air/ nair or fast falling out of it and do a forward air if the opponent is sitting there waiting for you.

umm well my 2cents...(No listens to noraa anyways so)

1. Shield grab and pummel..seems dumb but racks up damage. Both pickachu videos the pikachu did alot of dsmash and you could have easly punished.

2. If your gonna b-stick make sure you know your spacing. Your spacing was all over the place making you go off the stage or it would let the other person get close.

3. when your losing and in panic you throw up random usmashs and they almost never hit. Be calm and wait.

4. JAB JAB JAB lol, best thing ever and also pick up how to jab cancle.

5. Dont randomly do pkt2......link was ***!n you up with that boomerang when you did it on yoshis lol


On the good side, im happy to see you tether grab alot, tether=safer recovery.

*Like i said no one listens to me so just keep practicing =[

[soccerdude7200]

lol

but ya could someone tell me how to jab cancel?
It would be very helpful.

 

[Noraa]

theres a thread some where around here on it just search it real quick

 

[ChaosTheoryX]

the easiest way to jab cancel is you use the first two hits of the jab. Then you crouch which cancels it and allows you to use another move

Go MK.

 

[soccerdude7200]
