Since it was pretty much the first time I managed to get multiple videos of tournament sets recorded, I figured I'd post these here since not everyone peruses the video threads.

If anyone sees anything that I should or should not be doing I'd appreciate the input. In general I get flustered at the end of some games when I think they might make a come back, and I miss everything and make dumb decisions. More specific things I noticed were that I roll a lot when coming back onto the stage, accidentally fsmash, and probably overuse down-air. I also just ran/jumped/fell into a lot of KDJ's dumb peach things, especially in the beginning.

anywho, there you go bros

I really like your Sheik, Banks. And the one thing I really noticed from your matches from KDJ is you have a tendency to roll out of shield a lot.

Thanks and yea, I actually mess up waveshielding more often then I would like so sometimes I roll by accident, or just don't even try it and roll instead.

Were you referring to the falco or peach matches? Against falco I do it on purpose a lot when i think it's safe to get out of pressure, perhaps there are better things to do in different situations. I used to try to time nairs out of shield pressure a lot more. but versus peach I noticed I was rolling so much during the set that I was consciously trying to not do it, particularly when I came back on stage and he was in the vicinity of the ledge.
