My edge guard was... meh not good that day. I know I lack speed, but with practice I can work on that. I just want comments. There's no audio (I didn't uploaded the vids). Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy.

From what I've seen of your Marth, it's pretty good. You are on a good road. I want to point out that I noticed once or twice that you where trying to uair a Fox when a nair would have been better, because you would have send him outside the stage and putting him in a uncormfortable position. But it's very nice keep it up nigg'.

Good marth, sorry I'm too tired to critique it. Just a side note though: from what I now, only the first 3 side B's actually help marth in his recovery, then if you jump you get 3 more. I'm not 100% certain it's true but I'm pretty sure I heard it somewhere a month ago. Sorry I couldn't critique you though.

No, this is untrue. Actually, only the FIRST overB really has an impact on recovery (the "floaty" overB), and jumping will not give it back to you. To get it back, you have to land on the ground, in a neutral landing animation (IE: shffling won't give back your recovery, since you're in the aerial landing animation. Neither will landing during your neutralB animation. A wavedash, however, WILL give you the overB recovery back).

Elran's point remains though, there is no point in repeatedly using your overB while recovering. Use it 3 times at most. The first actually halts your vertical decent completely and adds to your horizontal momentum. The next 2 slow down your falling speed somewhat, but due to diminishing returns, there's no point in doing it any more then that.
