Well after the combo vid I've been anxious to post some more recent vids of my Mario so here they go. I apologize now for the bad quality and commentary as they were recorded on digital camera and sometimes me and my friends get alittle goofy but I hope you can still enjoy them. Here they go:

Shogun Vs. Baseline (Captain Falcon)

Round 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndihFDLLtGI

Round 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shDyakHg8go

Round 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F28J7EI_5Lo

Shogun Vs. Eradicator (Link)

Round 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PfDA6gtffA

Round 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx7CF6xfxAA

If you are going to critique (which I don't mind) please watch all the matches or at least 3 of the 5 please cause critique from only watching one match isn't very helpful to my game, thank you and once again hope you enjoy.

You Mario is still sexy. You have these weird combo tatics that depend on doing different things so your opponent doesn't know how to DI. This is a good thing, but you seem to favor this type of combo style instead of guarenteed stuff. Like you would do a downthrow to jab to downthrow. I have to repeat, this is not necessarily a bad thing and in fact I should do more stuff like that especially the reset jab to another down throw. However, you use uptilt against Falcon sometimes. . . well, alot of the time. lol If Leory knew how to DI it each time he would escape with less damage then let's say if you use the upthrow to upsmash. He does, seem to not DI it exactly right as he gets hit with something like fsmash and dsmash when you usually do it. I guess whatever works since it seems to combo for you.

Yeah, and the upair spam is sexy. lol Usually, things like nair and dair should be used to apporach since the hitboxes stay out for awhile but I guess if you are careful and time the upair so that its huge priority protects you, go ahead. It defintely leads to more combos than nair.

I guess my qualms are all style issues. Good work. :) Darn your Mario still being better than mine (which still isn't good btw).

I'll have a miniclip of what happens when he DI's like you say. Also I can recall a certain match where a certain someone *cough* NES n00b *cough* used the same method of DI. I just didn't know the combos back then and now I know them now so i'm pretty sure they can work in those given situations.

Dude, I was about to start making suggestions and everything till I watched the second and third Falcon vids. You adapted to his strategy well and had excellent mindgames. No problems with ur style here, keep it up.

Lol, thanks that's why I wanted people to watch at least 3 of the vids cause it's really hard to judge or critique matches watching one vid only. Appriciate the comments.

LOL, k. I do remember trying to DI the uptilts don't remember what happens. Maybe it is percentage specific thing.

Yeah, good spacing and mindgames. You are adaptive and blah blah blah. XD
