what can i say...your pretty good but i dont think you use your charge beam very correctly i mean...you dont fire it at the right time!!!!

its good to smash him away first and then a super missile and exactly after that super misiile the charge beam.! he wouldnt really be thinking about the charge beam anymore and would concentrate on the super missile.

and dont forget to Crouch cancel counter alot!!!!

its really good with samus!

but you are pretty good!

I'm not a Samus main, boss, but I can easily tell that you play her well. If there's anything you need to work on that I can see, it's fluidity. Samus's combos are pretty awesome; the bombs are excellent links in a nice combo chain for example, especially if you snag them as they're DI-ing. She can also tech chase very, very well. If you can maintain a steady flow from one move to the next, Samus can be a juggernaut.

I didn't quite understand why you WDed off of the edge at like, 1:00 or something. I know it can be a laudible part of strategy in some instances, but (in my humble opinion) you shouldn't do that against a Sheik unless you have some kind of ace up that sleeve. I can honestly say that if I was that Sheik, I would've been rushing the whole time and I probably would've dropped off the edge after you with an f-air ready to knock you away. Then it would've been a simple matter of edgeguarding---Samus's recovery is sick, but a couple of b-airs, n-airs, or maybe an f-air would've kept you away.

Again, good stuff. What I said is merely an observation. I main Sheik, so I'm not one hundred percent sure if I what I say holds water. I'd personally wait for somebody like Phanna to come rolling along in here to give his two cents. *shrugs.* He mains Samus, so he can probably give you a better outlook.

Edit:

needs work on mindgames, you do too much empty movement, and the sheik you played sucked
There is that, too. Wow. It is too early for me. Yeah, your mindgames do need a bit of polish. But I (kind of) stand by what I say.

Recovery needs work. You should use bomb jumps for horizontal distance, and only use double jump and ub as a last resort. You looked alright on the stage, but you did the same things over and over again and that would get punished against a better player

@Super Mari0: Whats your nick @ 3765? Anyway I think I don´t need hints by someone from Germany since I am offically the best german samus player.

I think it´s pretty stupid to post videos here. The character specific thread is better since there aren´t that much noobs who have no idea of the game and leave stupid comments like "you need to work on your mindgames". Smooth Criminal, I know that you are a pretty good samus player and I respect your opnion. But most people are impressed by flashiness and techskill, but they don´t see good mindgames etc. For them being good is the same like having techskill. For example, if Hugs would be a noname and he would post a video, most people said that his samus is slow and camps all the time. I hope you know what I mean.
