2 weeks? Not bad, not bad. I watched a few matches, here's a few things I noticed:

Your game vs. Marth is decent for the most part. Your approach could use work, though. Practice moving around into perfectly shffl'd nairs, get comfortable with doing in-place nairs, and nairs with backwards momentum. Nair is really good against Marth (be careful of CC though). The combos were also pretty good, but I noticed a habit that was ruining some of your combos and edgeguarding. You were overshooting your aerials a lot. I remember one instance where you were comboing him to the edge, then you overshot a knee and he went the other direction. This should tell you something.

Overall, just work on aerial timing + spacing, edgeguarding, and you should see improvement.

Yeah you are pretty solid for only two weeks. However, that Marth wasn't too hot (no offense dude, peeps at the Marth forums can help) so he wasn't able to punish a lot of your reckless mistakes. Just be careful when doing dairs close to the edge. It caused you to slip off the stage, which is something you never want to do when up against a decent Marth. Just tidy up your spacing a bit and you'll be even better. Nice edge guarding too.

Wow thanks, I've been practicing Nairs after reading this. I've gotten slightly better with it, and with my combos also. And yea sometimes I think I get a little too excited when I see a combo opportunity and end up just ruining it haha. Again, thanks for all your help, hope you enjoyed watching the vids.

haha thanks again miggz. You're like one of the few people who actually post and help others in most,if not all, of the rate my (character) threads.

Btw I have new vids up, and also some team matches.
