I've been practicing melee more, trying to get to a decent competitive status with it lately.

I still like brawl more :D

that's a good thing. what character were you using?
Marth. Apprently it's an underused character around here.

Actually, brawl is pretty much hated around here lol I think I am the only one who actually has the patience for it. Speaking of which, I think I have found that playing both brawl, and melee are both really important to becoming better at either game really.

I am not sure what qualities I get from either, but it seems whenever I drop brawl, pickup melee or smash64, I just get a little bit better whenever I come back to brawl. More so than if I had spent like 5-6 hours facing various people in brawl. I am not sure how true it might be for melee, but I suppose the various scenarios you place yourself in are so alien that you when you learn them, you learn to adapt more readily/quickly.

and i'm sure the marths you have played aren't good yume...jus sayin. Only good marths can give snake trouble, once they know the mu
almo is decent IN GENERAL, but he's bad against snake

beyond that NE doesn't have much for marth's now, darc was one of the best a long *** time ago before he quit. if MK were banned I'd probably main marth I think but that will never happen so I don't put that much time into him and only use him in tournament in sets where the outcome isn't in question

marth beats snake IMO but it does have to be a very precise marth that knows the MU well, I think at the highest level marth beats snake by about the same margin that MK does, but less consistently(marth's biggest weakness as a character IMO is NOT his potential, but that it's very difficult to hit the ceiling of what he can do as consistently as other characters). either way snake can do ok, I think his only really horrible MU is olimar and most olimar players are terrible scrubs so that helps.

what I said before, marth isn't a consistency character. it's not that he can't be good, it's that he can't be good all the time

hey i am new here and i need some advice with snake

what is his fastest smash attack?

is it alright to camp with snake?

how do u up smash while sliding?
Usmash is his fastest, but use his tilts more often. They are 10x better than his smash attacks.

Camping with Snake is pretty much the key to making him so good. Use a lot of grenades, but you will have to learn them correctly.

You have to start a dash attack, then really quickly do an Usmash. Try this:
>dash forward
>push down on the c-stick really quickly after dashing
>push up on the control stick up
>press the Z button

Each step has to follow up really close to the last step in very fast succession.

how to b reversal the other way >_>
Coming from you fatal, that makes no sense.

teach me at the smashfests yume ^_^
provided you aren't joking to do the b reversal the other way, the way where you have momentum and your back is going forward you hit B then tap it to the direction your back is going real quick, its alot more strict than the normal b reversal, you might do a nikita if you do it too early or hold the stick out too long, its kinda weird

if you mean B reversing while keeping your forward momentum, back return to center B+back

instant throwing is so easy lol, i just wish it had more applications

anyone found use of it?

:009:
I use it sometimes to get nades away from me when I dont need them, or to just do random stupid ****, cuz I try to mix up my nade game as much as possible and do dumb **** that might catch people off guard, ya never know

Instant throwing makes the battle for fast paced but you shouldn't make the pace of the fight fast.

After I throw 1 grenade, I instant throw the second grenade whenever it seems like the most proper time to do it. Sometimes, I just shied drop it wait for 2 seconds or what so ever and I keep the enemy away from me. I'm not fond of the technique but I still use it in some random situation.

I find the insta-throw thing really useful for snake dittos. It evades the problems of grenade stripping, and is easily the fastest method for getting rid of nades on the field. However, relying upon a short hop to get rid of a grounded grenade is a bit risky as snake hates the air.

Insta-throw is equally useable in the diddy match-up and really any match-up involving throwing projectiles (that snake can grab) at your feet as you land.

Welcome DownPour. It's all good. You'll learn a lot about Snake, his play style, his pros and cons, and about the community in general around here.

I forgot about that, I love it in snake dittos it gives you a good upper hand if they cant do it as well...lol

I used to play diddy seriously alot too so I have all the instant throw **** down...like when alot of ppl think they can throw something back at me safely (its always obvious) I instant throw back
