You'll have to watch them in opposite order. PnT Ocala video was my first tournament, just a locals gig, but the rest are from a semi-big tournament in Orlando. I had big tourney jitters and I went in cold (dumb move on my part), but I'm planning on heading down to another tourney on the 27th.

Tips to help the noob improve?

And sorry for the sucky quality and bad sound. They were done by digital camera cause I promised videos =(

 

[asob4]

i only watched the one vs CO18's D3

uhhh you fell into his grabs quite often, and when he was hopping around like that, you should've been uair'ing him and pivot grabbing his falling bairs.
also, camp moar! it destroys dedede

 

[Rust]

Yeah, I learned all that near the end of the match. Believe it or not, he was the first D3 I've played that wasn't a computer <<"

I need to get out more -_-

 

[Awex]

You look pretty rusty

 

[Cook]

Recommend three videos and I'll watch them.

I have to say the video quality made these hard to watch, but here goes:

I'm not too qualified to give Falco advice, but I think maybe your spacing could use a little work (I have the same problem). It always seems like once Falco gets close to me he has a big advantage because I think his attacks come out faster (but this could be internet lag playing tricks on me). If he grabs you, you're probably letting him in too close. Also, SDI out of the jab combo as fast as you can; you can often catch them with a f-smash right after. I think you can chaingrab him at low percents (not sure, though) so it's probably best to do that when you grab him at 0%, rather than just doing a f-smash out of d-throw. I'm being nit-picky, though, I thought it wasn't bad overall. By the way, did your u-tilt outprioritize his d-air? That would be a good thing for me to know if it does.

I have almost zero Diddy experience, so I can't say too much there. You just kind of let him get too much momentum at the end at tripped over all sorts of nannerz. I'd say too much rolling, not enough pivot grabbing. Bait him into approaching, then pivot grab.

I'm definitely not qualified to critique your MK fight because I suck *** against him. You got whorenadoed like I always do. Once again, I think more pivot grabs would have helped. He was really good at teching, so that didn't help you much. I think you did pikmin toss too much. MK kills pikmin easily and is fast, so pikmin toss usually ends up doing little damage and often ends with you getting hit because MK got to you during the lag (or at least this has been my experience), so pikmin toss is not that great against him.

Again (meaning I need it. Your help not your D='s )

New vids, I have improved but I want to know what I further need to improve on.

Those are it for the moment. With all the "critique my Olimar" threads coming around, I figured I'd throw this back out there.

 

[KillerSOS]

Dont use dash attack

Its terrible

Edit: Watched the first falco video

Stop using f-air. I didn't see you use a single pikmin toss either. You are not using his BEST MOVE

 

[iPikmin]

you need to camp more....

pikmin spaming is the best way to rack up damage

 

[ElemMasterZeph92]

Hmm, two things you really need to work on is paying attention to your line and knowing the best use for each pikmin. This link should help you more>>http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=179602

I suggest you pick up a new character... Meta Knight.

I suggest you pick up a new character... Meta Knight.

I suggest you leave these forums with that mentality...

This is a place to help people with olimar, not discourage them

I don't remember seeing a single pivotgrab. (run backwards and press z and the opposite direction. Or run backwards and z+c-stick the opposite direction. the latter won't make you slide) Instead, you would roll away and grab. Pivotgrabbing is significantly safer and quicker. It allows you to space well, while throwing out a grabbox.

Also, your upair is really good. Against DDD in particular when he's floating above you, use it more! Jump up underneath him and upair, land on the front side of him so he can't bair you, and then pivotgrab away from him in case he tries to follow up with a grab.

 

[Hai Im Fearless]

I played against co18 a few times...

Pivot grab more and when he backairs you while ur shielding you can let go of shield fsmash or fair

also that guy is an amazing gimp artist....
