So i finally got around to getting some vids up for some tips from peach boards. I've been going mostly peach lately(only using diddy for mk and snake) and even so i use peach on snake depending on the stage. I still have to upload some matches vs snake.

Anyway i already realize that i am WAY to aggressive with peach(especially against the top tiers) And i need to cut down on that. I just hate standing around throwing turnips all day but im learning that is what needs to be done to win in most cases.) I even stopped playing her in brawl+ for a while just so i wouldn't get her playstyles mixed up between the games. So besides that plz give me any tips i can approve on or tell me what im doing wrong.

Here.
I saw my name mentioned here and I was about to be HIGHLY upset, but I realized these weren't me for once. I'll watch the Dedede vid, but that's it.

I watched the Marth vid.

You need to work on your DI. You were KO'd by his Bair and that should not happen when you are on the middle of the stage -_-

~Punish better! You seem to roll away every time you get a chance to punish! Look @ 4:23! Marth used up-b & then you spot-dodged, then rolled away!! You could have punished w/ an Up-smash for the KO but you rolled away!! Work on that.

~Space your Fairs- You got shield grabbed a couple times. Peach should not be shield-grabbed by anyone if you space correctly.

Philly, i added you, when you sent me a PM; but you never added me. I'm VERY limited on FC space. Let me know if you're gonna add me. I'm trying to hold out before i have to delete you from my FC list, bud. :)

I don't ever write on the boards, but since everyone gave me feedback on my own Peach critique thread, I'll put in my 2 cents, so I hope it helps. I watched the first Diddy vid. Diddy is my secondary (who I use against Marth and MK!) so I can only help you with him.

Most noticeably, you need to gimp Diddy. When he is offstage, he's pretty vulnerable. At least edgehog him and force him to recover other places than the ledge. You can Z drop turnips, just throw turnips, or throw bananas if you've got them. Which brings me to my next point.

Peach can handle bananas almost as well as Diddy. Whenever he gets them out, you want to go after them (within reason). You don't want to have too many turnips out, because this makes you unable to have bananas (which are better items). Diddy will be throwing bananas at you, so airdodge and catch them. When I'm playing Diddy, I HATE when my opponent has my bananas, it's frustrating and annoying. If there's a nanner on the ground, float over it, do an aerial, and drop. You'll pick it up. This is useful. Also, dash attacking at Diddy isn't terrible, as your dash attack will not only hit him, but catch the banana he's throwing as well (providing you are close enough to him to hit him).

Don't float too much. I know being off the ground is typically a good thing against Diddy, and it is, but his Fair can wreck you if he's smart. If he doesn't have a banana in hand, he probably wants to hit you out of your float. Diddy is more aerially mobile than Peach is.

Jab and Nair are good for getting out of Diddy combos. Also, when Diddy's above you (way above you, like if you just hit him with an Uair), throw a turnip/banana. Force him to airdodge. You might be able to hit him with something else as he's coming down, Nair, Bair, Fair. You say that you are too aggressive, but you aren't aggressive enough for fighting Diddy. You can't leave him alone. He will get out bananas. If he ignores his banana game and tries to outspace you with aerials (which he CAN do), then you can start turnip camping him. As soon as bananas come out, you want to go on the offense.

Hope that was helpful and wasn't too long...

Wow I can't handle Peach without a dress on lol. I think glidetossing your turnips (and using a few more turnips) would help you out a bit if you think that you're being too aggressive. Glidetossing is great for retreating and approaching, so it's always helpful in my opinion.

Edit: Oh in the DDD video you used turnips a lot more. I always end up using them in matches that I'm bad at such as snake and marth
