Samus vs. Wolf/Snake/Falco

[VforVinDiesel]

Hey guys, I've been using Samus for quite some time now. Everytime I play a snake, wolf, or falco I have the hardest time and usually end up losing. Falco's short hop double laser tech makes me barely be able to move, as well as his chain grab. Snake ftilt and running downsmash tech murder me. Wolf seems to just sit and spam his laser, and when i try to get close, uses fsmash. For some reason, its really only these 3 characters I find impossible to beat. Mind you, this is online so it's super hard to consistently short hop zair (usually recognizes it as a full jump -.-). Any tips with these 3 characters? Also, if samus wants to 1v1 me, I'd love to learn some stuff ( I'd like to think I'm pretty good ).

Thanks!!!

Online is tricky. I play on it lots, so to pull things off you need to input commands before they appear on screen (bad habit to get into though).

For Falco, focus on keeping him off the stage and fish for that up+b of his, which then = gimp.
Campy Falcos and Wolfs, I find full hopping and shooting homing missiles causes them to react in some defensive way (thus stopping the laser spam), which allows you to get in close enough for a zair or something.

If this Wolf likes to fsmash when you approach close enough, approach from the air using homing missiles and zair (or shoot a missile on the ground then approach behind it) it's good if he uses his reflector because homing missiles lose their momentum shortly after, thus not getting in your way allowing a zair. Falco's reflector is annoying though, but kinda follows the same idea.

As for Snake, I read that uncharged shots do wonders on him since they stop him in his tracks (and also stop his dash attack)

I find wolf to be a real challenge, I get caught up in his lazer fire and he has those lunging moves which slide across at you if you are not careful , also his up a is powerful with a large hitbox, so yea I feel your pain with that matchup.
Snake on the other hand can be dealt with fairly easily I think, uncharged shots homing missle spam and z air are quite easy to land on him cause of his size. The z air stops his grenades, uncharged shots stop him from running and diving at you (as so many snake players like to do). And a useful combo for me is: sh d air into a sweep (dunno why but this seems to work alot against alot of ppl). Also try a triple missle full jump at a distance to piss him off. Overall he's a good match up for samus I think.
