Hello, I am new to SmashBoards but am really looking to improve my gameplay. I've been watching a lot of pro player vods (mainly Zero, Mew2king, and what I could find of Hungrybox on Smash 4) but my play doesn't seem to get much better. I was hoping I might be able to get some advice here. My main character is Jigglypuff (she is my waifu) and though I've played many many games with her (over 1000 in a row, I don't own the game and only play with my friends bit Jigglypuff is all I will play) I don't seem to improve much at all and I'm getting tired of getting smashed by my friends all the time. I feel like if I list my problems that might help with the advice I am asking for, so bare with me if some of this makes me sound incredibly bad. Here is what I have a lot of trouble with.
First off, I feel like every other character has a longer reach of attack than Jigglypuff, and more impactful abilities. I attempt to do short hop back airs and forward airs which do high damage but I can't ht them often because to me it feels like their characters have a longer reach and can do much more than just jab airs like I do. (I do realize this is probably just my reaction ability though)
Secondly I have a problem with combos. When my friends get one attack off on me, they make it hurt and keep following it up. But I just can't seem to land combos at all. I hit them with and air attack and they fly to the other side of the stage and before I can chase after them they have already recovered. The best combo I can seem to land is one were a do a running jab and just keep hitting them over and over and till they reach the edge. I would really like help in this area I think if I could combo better I would be a much better player.
The next thing I want to improve is my edge guarding. In Melee I could did this fairly well but in Smash 4 it feels like people can recover a lot better and just teleport back onto the stage or have a lot better up B's or something. It's hard for me to just stay a float and keep air attacking them off the stage.
Lastly is my kill moves. Sadly I almost always have to rest to get my kills. I try to kill with my back airs but they don't seem to work unless I get them to about 150% or so.
Other than that I am trying to work on my sheilding,grabs, and predictions. If you have any general advice that could help me that would be great or I would love some more advanced advice too. Thank you for reading ^.^
