best practive is in matches (once you get the tech skill down - make sure you can easily djc right after you shield)

i completely agree
it just reminded me of those old matches of sossie and prince hitting 10+ parries per game
it's breath taking

Sorry clubba but your prediction was a little off.
Gators play a 15 seed round 2 lol...
And that lol is because it's weird. If they play like they did vs Mizzou they could beat us too.

Yea, that's what I meant. Parry practice for people who don't already have the timing/techskill down (most people)...or red shell? lol
Obv practicing reaction in match is needed >___>

1. I hate the gators
2. Is there anyone else that doesn't like to duck when parrying
3. Hope you all had a great St Patrick's Day

i find duck parrying a bit harder to time and when players see you ducking, it usually only means one thing, so they whip out a drill. it's more unexpected if you're standing normally
but duck parry is more practical because of the reduced knockback if you miss-time it, so i still stick with it

Crouching doesn't necessarily telegraph parries. It's pretty easy to bait/mindgame people with yoshi's crouch.
I like to walk crouch approach people (like walk a couple feet then crouch for a second then walk a couple more feet). If they know you're good at parrying they immediately think parry so you can bait the parry and rush them with a dash attack or a djc.
Eh what I'm trying to say is that crouching parries doesn't have to make you predictable.

@tyhiggz,
1) Me too :D
2) I prefer standing! I just started crouch parrying by default not too long ago since it really is better, but you should def know how to parry while standing also.
3) You too. I, on the other hand, couldn't drink >___>

1) Ducking is better
2) Parrying approaches is a bit overrated anyways
3) Sheer should bait me more often because he lets me drill him way too much
4) There is no way duck parrying is "harder to time" (@pete). The purpose of ducking in the first place is to make it easier to time.
5) (@TANK) Not a good way to get tech skill down because you'll get to used too parrying without a follow up. I remember seeing a vid of ballin's Yoshi where he would successfully parry but fail to do a djc counterattack or anything - that's what happens. Also wouldn't recommend for timing because it's just pressing shield to a beat. So if you got rhythm it'll be way easy. I personally used red shells (or get-up attacks from CPUs) before moving on to real matches.

1. I slightly regret starting this whole numbering thing, though the organization within posts is nice
2. I learned parrying by doing just the parry first then adding in the jump and other stuff. Adding the other stuff wasn't very hard after getting the initial timing. I like that red shell idea and wish I thought of that; I resorted to practicing with projectile spamming CPUs (pika, mario, samus, fox).

Been drinking way too much Guinness these past few days. Thinking of picking up a few of those nitro-cans for a different experience.
Anybody had Foreign Extra Stout? By far the best Guinness has to offer. Like Extra Stout, but more dark fruity and flavorful.
