Whats up Smashboards. This will be my first post, so I'm testing the waters a little bit. I'm JTWild, a Chicago Smash 4 Mario who's in his first year of competitive Smash. I've gt the combo follow ups, its what I lab the most. Zenyou and I now are friends, and we've been discussing Mario combos and shenanigans once he's in control. But my issue is playing footsies and getting spaced out. Does anyone have advice to a new-ish player on these two subjects? And I'll post videos of my play if that will help.

Welcome to Smashboards!

It depends a lot on the matchup. Mario isn't really much oriented around spacing as far as I know, but stepping back and throwing out a pivot F-Smash works as a mixup against certain characters. I suggest that you go to the Mario boards and ask them instead as they know a lot more about Mario's matchups. Be sure to look in already existing threads in that subforum and maybe ask in their Q&A thread instead of making your own thread. Hope this helps i little! :)
