Me two i fight almost the best marths in my area and they kick my *** all the the time but now looking at this forms i learned to beat the marths! Also thx for starting with this form i relly needed this!!!Hello Smashboards. It's me. Chocobo.
I guess most of you don't know me. Anyways, lately I've discovered something. I play some of the best Marths in my area (Cactuar, who is undoubtedly finding my thread because he searches for his own name, and Lord Knight), and yet I still can't come up with a decent counter-strategy to the tipper-happy swordsman.
So, any of you wiser Sami out there, care to shed some light on this subject?
I don't have any recent videos of my vs Marth game, so I'll attempt to discribe it... I try to keep MArth at bay with ftilt, but it's an ordeal at times. Also, I can spam like any Samus (though if any of you know me, you know I'm notoriously fast and close-ranged for a Samus), but Marth simply slashes his way towards me.
I'm having trouble against SCRUBBY Marths now. PLEASE. Someone give me a clue about the finer points of the match-up, the more specific, the better.
Thanks. Chocobo loves you.
I... but... how... what are... hmmmm... English?Me two i fight almost the best marths in my area and they kick my *** all the the time but now looking at this forms i learned to beat the marths! Also thx for starting with this form i relly needed this!!!
I guess it's that time of the month? ^.^Regardless of the advice any of you worthless Samus players can give... I will still be able to beat him. And all of you.

Wow aids, way to spam like ever single thread.
Alright I looked. I'm pretty sure this hasn't been said.This is what's happening in this thread.
People are saying things, I'm replying, and then spammers show up and repeat what's already been said without contributing anything original/intelligent.
Please read the posts already in this thread. If you don't have anything new to say, keep quiet.
Thank ya. Baibai.
Right.... I'm not sure that I even said that but anyways: I also forgot to mention that attempting to jump away from his attacks just gets you closer to the tip of his sword so the easiest way to put distance between you and him in a tight situation is to use the lightest shield possible which will recoil you away at which point you can use the grapple before his attack ends.I was going to make a snide remark... but that is basically all that post said.
Yaaaaaaaay.young cactuar i shall mm yee at pound sir 5 dollars plz and thank you oh so much

This isn't 4chan.Image deleted for being irrelevant to anything. Ever. I get that the joke is you're watching them argue or something.
1. No, but it's still the internet.This isn't 4chan.
1. That's not an adequately intelligent counter-argument.1. No, but it's still the internet.
2. That wouldn't even work on 4chan, as gifs aren't animated when they appear in threads.
3. Looking at your sig, you have no room to complain.
-Ahem? No Samus mains have complementary secondaries? Have we met before?-none of us have secondaries that compliment our main well in singles play
-marth may have priority over samus in the air, but not if he isn't doing any attack...
-with proper spacing and mindgames upB camping can work, quite well actually
That's what she said. Happy?The square block doesn't go into the circular hole.
-your secondary is ok for complimenting samus, but not that well. ur complaining about ur marth matchup right now. and against a good marth, fox is worse on marth than fox is. if u want the perfect compliment to samus, its sheik.-Ahem? No Samus mains have complementary secondaries? Have we met before?
-Point taken. Still, you KNOW that missiles are going to do crapola to LK and Cactoid.
-Here's the thing with upB out of shield. You can't really space it. You have to rely on the Marth in question being silly enough to frequently get close to your shield. If he makes the mistake, hell yeah, upB his arse...
P.S.- I love that you're in my thread now.

Ohh, ok, I can respect that; I thought you were just trying to be an ***. I apologize for image macro'ing it up in your thread.Look, I don't care if people are idiots outside of a thread I'm trying to make into something helpful. Spam somewhere else, please. I didn't make this to help people's post counts. I've had issues with Marth and I think it's a rather common problem among many Samus players.

-Fox is an excellent complement, because if you have a good Fox, the match-up with Marth is even. Fox also handles Shiek very well (and Sheik isn't A Shiek counter, last I checked, making her an imperfect secondary as well). There's a reason Fox is top tier. There are ways to avoid Marth's ability to chain fuzzies. However, that is for another thread. I was just correcting a blanket statement you made that no Sami have good secondaries.-your secondary is ok for complimenting samus, but not that well. ur complaining about ur marth matchup right now. and against a good marth, fox is worse on marth than fox is. if u want the perfect compliment to samus, its sheik.
-i use missiles for more than hitting the opponent lol. i know it sounds stupid, but im not kidding. think about it
-they dont always have to be next to u for u to use it. there could be some space between u, if that space is vertical. its ok to travel a lil distance b4 the upB make contact. any damage is damage and helps towards the end goal.
First and last points are very true but I don't think it's entirely true to say that NONE of us have secondaries that compliment our main, it's definitely true for me at least that I'd prefer never to have to use other characters but I think that it's also important to develop your skills with other characters in order to counter the ones that have priority over your main. I (like most people) use Fox but I can also play well with Mewtwo, Roy, Captain falcon, Kirby, Zelda and Sheik. For a good way of fighting Marth I find that any of those last 3 are good choices (personally) because I can use them to either get around his attacks or counter them. I've also heard from some good Mario players that his cape is a godsend against Marth's Fsmash.-us samus players are intelligent, we are just a light-hearted folk who joke around at times
-none of us have secondaries that compliment our main well in singles play
-marth may have priority over samus in the air, but not if he isn't doing any attack...
Wow, just... Wow.Mewtwo, Roy, Captain falcon, Kirby, Zelda and Sheik.

Seems you left that part out... weird to have to quote myself but anyway it wasn't a suggestion it was an example.Mewtwo, Roy, Captain falcon, Kirby, Zelda and Sheik. For a good way of fighting Marth I find that any of those last 3 are good choices (personally)
If there is a needle in a hay stack, do you burn down the barn to find it?If you don't like my attitude with this thread, simply remove it from your subscriptions, stop posting here, and move on.
Is there any other way?If there is a needle in a hay stack, do you burn down the barn to find it?
Kirby winsI'm laughing that you think Kirby is a match for a half-decent Marth...
