Hey everyone!!! I was able to get some sets recorded and figured I'd share em. These are open to critique or just for anyone interested. Here are some sets where I actually win and don't look like a total scrublord. These were all friendlies sets and I know I have a lot to improve on. Enjoy. :)

Good stuff overall. Kinda wish you had more games of you losing it's easier to critique lol.

You never sweet spot the edge with your quick attack, probably just because you don't feel comfortable with it. It doesn't hurt you much in these games but you should have that in your arsenal to mix up recovery.

You don't use down tilt much in neutral, it's a good spacing tool. Although I'm not sure where you needed it, just experiment with it in neutral.

One last little thing, you predicted fox's up b sweet spot at the edge but didn't angle your ftilt downward so it didn't catch him. It could have been you were a tad slow on it too idk.

These are just little things really. If you get more vids post those too!

There's more videos on the same channel. These were just some of the more recent with more matchup variety. Lately I've just mainly been focusing on movement and my neutral game in general the past couple weeks. Kinda hard lately balancing time between melee and my college classes.

Not sweet spotting is just a bad habit from not getting punished for too often, but you're right I definitely need to use it more. Lately I've been trying to implement tilts more in neutral. I'm bad about using downsmash in places I should dtilt instead.

Thanks for the input though man!! If I get any new stuff I'll be sure to post it in this thread.

@ Wreck_94 Wreck_94

maybe some thunderjolts

more Uair --> Nair / Bair / Dair instead of just juggling your opponent with Uair

definitely more D-tilt

like The Jets said, angle your f-tilts

try and get more damage after an Uair OoS on spacies (e.g Uair --> nair or Uair --> Usmash or something)

work on your low percent gimps becuase theyre essential with Pika :)

also when 'coming down' after foxes Usmash at about 50/60% try airdodging or using up-b. Dair is good, but can be beaten by alot of moves. So mix up what you do in that situation

Nice job Wreck :) (btw please post more vids :p)
