I should mention that these matches ^^^^ do not represent the skill level in Scotland :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Kieran-you try too hard to move quickly and either your hands arent keeping up or your head isnt.

TY. I feel like somethings not right, I keep doing stupid things with my hand movement, and I'm not thinking right, I keep trying to tech chase whenever I can, though against Fox, I'm not sure what else I can do besides dair, knee's, dair to nair, forward b to knee and throws it's weird. I'll hopefully get A LOT better this weekend with WOC though.

Ty for the advice though Paul.

He's right you did alot of nairs, uairs and knees way too fast the hitboxes barey had time to move x__x
Zeppo's falcons fast, but that's cause the way he plays utilizes it. You got ****ed for it imo

ps i wana falcon ditto ^___^

EDIT: P.V try some different ways of coming back from the edge, also up tilts and drillshine-wd-grabs are pretty much a given. another fox ditto at CHJ?

I'm actually semi impressed, you guys got a lot better since i last saw you both. OAP 4 Lyfe

Z is right. Kieran you make a lot of technical errors and its because you are trying to be too quick and because of it you also have a lot of bad habits like forward Bing at awful occasions. You should do what zeppo does more and just dash dance around whilst watching your opponent, sometimes its good to wait for the mistake.

Thanks Euan, :).
I can't wait to play you again personally, I need alot of peach practice and I haven't played you since PFest. =(
But yeah thanks for the advice, I'll try fix the forward B. I'm just going to be really observant of Z's falcon from now on. And I'll slow down and think what I'm doing, if I feel like I need to be doing something when I'm thinking I'll dash dance but not stupidly.

You are both just generally messy,Matt I think you are quite a naturally smart player but you never play to your own pace,you need to slow down.Getting faster should come naturally.David has barely practiced his tech skill and hes 10x more in control than either of you.
I think I only saw combos that went up to 30% and thats because you both have poor spacing.You need to learn to be more careful in how you move,you'd probably be surprised at what sort of combos you can do if you just have good spacing.

Anyway I hope you guys are realising some of this stuff for yourself,thats the most important thing.

yeah i noticed that iswell about the tech skill, it seemed like you were trying to be too fast.
Maybe should try to pratice your shffl and fast movements in training with fox to get the overall feel with the character. A bit too much dash attacks on FoD which lead to getting shield grabbed, you should try to approach him different with a grab or Dair or Nair to grab because he grabbed you alot when you did a Nair to shine. if you do shine then wavedash away or behind him so you dont get shield grabbed. but overall it was decent:)

P.S Do you main fox now because i thought you mained mario
