Sounds good. I have no idea how to play the Yoshi match up. Some games i did pretty good, others were so awful.
The main thing I noticed was that you would put up your shield whenever I started approaching aggressively. The second game you fixed this by doing more short hop approaches as well as being more aggressive. When I was pressuring your shield with egg thorws that your cue to roll out of there and reset the position to neutral so I couldn't grab you out of shield.

Overall you had a good sense of which art to use and when to counter, that's always worth its weight in gold

Is anyone down for some 2v2s? I have a friend over at my place. I used to play 2v2s ranked on allisbrawl so i'd say same rules.

Sparring sounds nice. I'd like to find out what are Jigglypuff's matchups in this game. Jigglypuffs slowness is just no match for little mac though

... My spar partner had to go I am assuming. Offline on both. Anyone looking for some toughening? Any Character match-up practice? Customs? Etc. etc.

Does anyone want to 2v2? I Have my partner? I'm ZSS, Samus, Ike and JIggly main. He's kind of a casual.
May I? I don't have a partner though. If you want or feel super tough, 2 v.1. As I am not casual, but just am prone to losing. I don't have a main.reason

If I turn my jump tap back on, I have a fairly good mega man.
^^; Sorry if that was a little unclear. I play Mega Man and was looking for some less commonly played characters. I'd love to see your Mega Man sometime though. It's always great to see how other people play the character I play most.

Add me for now. 0989-1742-6791

Also does anyone know how to change your screen name? Haha I swore it was asking for my 'official name' not a screen name.
You may need Mods help. I double checked the settings, and I did not find options that lead to screen name settings.

@ Locke 06 Locke 06 GGs mate, excellent Megaman you have there, never thought of using him that way. I got pwned but i learned a lot xD. I would like to fight you again but I'm out for now, have a slight headache and im hungry.

What do you think of my Shulk and Mac, what do you think i need to improve?

I'll give it a go
:) Lots of fun games. Shulk poses some interesting threats to Mega man that I'm not used to (mostly his sword canceling out lemons) and you're probably the first decent Shulk I've played. Also, I tried to change my playstyle to fight mac and get him off stage. You space with his ftilt really well to avoid grabs and I feel like you play against the "grab mac and throw him off stage" style as mac a lot. Once I got back to my own game of lemons, I felt a lot more comfortable even though the "safe space" between your range and the edge of my lemons is significantly shorter.

You know Mega Man pretty well, so it was fun to see how someone who knows the character plays against him. You threw out a little too many high-risk moves with Shulk and when you're at KO% for the mega upper, it can really hurt you (I'm looking at you, counter). Also, dealing with shield grabbing as Shulk seems like a little bit of an issue for you. You combo well with him and can really rack up % quickly... but I could tell when you really wanted the KO and you were fishing for it a little too much. My big advice for your Shulk (and your Mega Man) is to keep within yourself and the KO will come.

I hope you enjoyed my down throw mind games as much as I did. (Also, the crash bomb --> stage spike --> hard knuckle was the coolest thing I have ever done)

As for Mac... Like I said, you space with him well and deal with grabs much better than I'm used to. Something that I don't see in a lot of macs that could help is that your dash/pivot is just as fast as a roll and somewhat more effective. Instead of rolling, just run through people. Likewise, instead of rolling away from an attack, run right out of the range of it and then back in range for your attacks. You space well with the ftilt, so doing that should come relatively easy for you.

Really enjoyed the matches. Go get some well deserved food. :D
