Please give me feedback on my Dedede. :)

So I've been maining the king ever since the beginning of the year, and I've learned quite a few things but I still feel like he's not 100% tourney ready. Some feedback on him would be nice.

Try d-throw > bair at early percentage so you don't catch any flak from fair's landing lag. Pay more attention to the edge for the regrab, especially with that link. Don't throw out short hop dairs and watch your rolls. Also think more about how you can use gordo setups for frame traps.

Pretty solid though.


Oh also you're not wearing purple.

Sounds like a plan!
Thanks for the feedback, and I do use the purple skin occasionally, and I call it pimp-D

Only watched the second match. I would not say you have a bad rolling habit. You did whiff a lot of grabs where you could not have possibly grabbed him, and he didn't punish you for it. You threw an aerial every time you landed, usually nair, and that got you Fsmashed. Try landing with inhale as a mixup, you can b-reverse it too to fake them out. The biggest things you didn't do was shield grab, jab into grab, or use gordo.

All that said, you played pretty well. Aptly named video mate!

I was surprised you got in between links up smash in the first video. Very impressive. Are these friends you play against online or at home? Online, lag can cause miss imputs and wrong moves all the time so I wouldn't penalize anybody for that. However, Dedede gets very penalized from landing lag so he suffers online a lot.
Anyway, the only advice I can give is more gordos. Especially when someone is in the air or against captain screw up. Link is tricky though, his projectiles reflect a lot of what we can do. But gordo has a lot of utility. Take my video against captain falcon for example...

I use the gordo in several ways, a distraction from a dash attack, to protect me from aerials while I do an inhale, and to combo into more attacks. On his last stock, if I had remembered to turn around and face the ledge so that I'd grab it instead of landing on the stage, I would have ended it much sooner I'm sure, but I lost the opportunity to edge guard. Oh well.
