I really liked Ryo's play against that R.O.B, but the first one against TINK felt rather lacking.

 

[Reizilla]

Here are a couple of videos of Megafox's Corrin from Thursday. There are a couple of other players using Corrin ont he channel, including some doubles vids.

 

[M@v]

Updated. Put my 2 tournament videos in as well. I had a couple other sets where I went Corrin one game of the set, but lost. So you aren't missing much on those lol.

 

[Nu~]

Excellent showing of Ryo's aggressive style of Corrin.

 

[Funkermonster]

My first & so far only time using Corrin in a tournament set on day 2, made sure I won with at least twice before attempting so because I didn't feel confident enough to bring Corrin in for most of the tourney yet. Its nothing much, but I also managed to get a cool semi-jab lock with MM that I was proud of at around the 1:54 mark.

Another tournament is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, hopefully then I can get another video or more to showcase. And please do let me know what to work on, anything helps and I'm working my best to improve.

DAMN those matches were insane! He used instant Pinning a lot in all of those matches, I love it!

Damn.

Can we get him to do some things around the boards? This guy could be a huge deal.

Well seeing as how he dropped Pikachu for this character, you can expect to see more of his Corrin soon.

 

[Deleted member 189823]

As good as the guy seems, I think Mew2 went dumbass mode and kept falling into Side B's.

 

[Reizilla]

More Megafox! Won another LoS. Lots of styling in some of these vids!

 

[Deleted member 189823]

I actually enjoyed watching Megafox's Corrin the most.

 

[Nu~]

More showing of Ryo's innovative Corrin

 

[teddystalin]

Earth (world's best Pit, 13th at Genesis 3) used solo Kamui to take the B bracket of Sumabato 7. So far as I know, they're only uploading GFs, but I'll keep an eye out for more.

 

[Deleted member 189823]

I've got to say, so far, Earth's Corrin is pretty much my favorite. Right when I first saw him play, I really like how he's super simple and "polished". As in, you don't really see him throw out more than what's necessary. He concentrates on keeping it simple, he doesn't overextend and uses moves with the least amount of cooldown. Completely unlike others I've seen so far that spam B, Side-B and just throw out F-Smashes (which is pretty safe, but still). Really interested on seeing more.

 

[Funkermonster]

A local I had last Thursday, only used Kamui twice but managed to get Top 8 at least without using my actual main.

Do let me know what to improve on, wanna hit it hard next time.

I enjoy that his Corrin isn't as button mashy as others I've seen (cosmos and Megafox), but I think he's a little too conservative.
Ryo has the best Corrin I've seen imo. Excellent reads and creative setups without being too patient and conservative like Earth.

 

[Deleted member 189823]

Saw the match again, and I saw what you meant. Same with Ryo.

 

[Ryo_Guikido]

Hello everyone! Finally have time to say hello to all the Corrins!

 

[Sovereign]

Here's a tournament set of myself against one of our top player's Cloud. I've reviewed this set and realized a LOT of things I can do better and a lot of habits I should avoid. I don't think Corrin should lose this mu, honestly. Next time I post a video, I will improve upon any good things you guys noticed about my playstyle.

 

[WispBae]

I'd like some critique on some vods. I can't get them into video form yet, I'm trying to ask an amigo if he can record it for me soon before the vods vanish.

http://www.twitch.tv/brave_raikrom/v/47801818

Small house tournament, around 12 entered. I use the tag "Bae?" and "Layne~" on stream, since there was another Corrin there who also used the pink alt.

First set is 2:41:00 (All Corrin)
Second set is 2:51:40 (First game only)
Third set is on 3:19:00 (All Corrin)

Any and all comments would be appreciated. =]

I think the biggest thing that I saw here was impatience. You're always in a hurry to convert more damage when you're at an advantage, but it seems to me as though you're autopiloting those moments. It's all fine to convert combos into further damage, but as soon as it becomes a string you need to be taking into consideration the counter options they have. For example, Cloud thrives off string battles, in almost any string situation he can win as long as he doesn't make a mistake. You either need to force an error after a combo to get the followup or simply take a step back and then continue after he attempts to break your string.

After this - Stop panicking. No matter what happens choosing an unsafe option because you're taking a lot of damage in an attempt to surprise your opponent is rarely ever a good idea. Vs Luigi you panicked and daired, leading to your death. Don't panic, taking damage is better than dying, stick to the safe options plan.

In terms of the matchups. Don't worry too much about Cloud getting LB. You don't need to rush against him because he's charging it, his charged LB actually makes the matchup slightly better for us as he becomes better juggle fodder. Shield more, then punish with IP, Cloud struggles to punish IP kick away. Try out shooting at Cloud a few times, if you can bait him into shooting back because his projectile is better than DFS you can get an easy punish. Powershielding through bladebeam gives Corrin IP during Cloud's lag.

Learn to walk or slow run when juggling, your anti air is failing because you're getting stuck in turnaround or stopping slides from running at full speed on occasion.

STOP using roll to turnaround if your opponent is behind you. You don't need to do it. It's a terrible habit a lot of people have that nobody seemed to punish you for in these matches, but a stronger opponent will notice and will cause you a lot of pain for doing it. Eliminate this habit. It's particularly bad for Corrin as she doesn't really have any options after the roll if an opponent just chases it down with an aggressive read against it.

Thanks! I'll keep in mind to stay calm and slow down.

For turning around, should I just turn? Or maybe pivot and f-tilt?

Just turn, pivot, jump and use the stick gently for microspacing the back hit box of nair, use IP. Lots of methods. You can even continue using the roll, but don't use it every time because it's going to turn into something you get punished hard for. I've seen this as a sticking point some people have against Cloud because they don't realise they're doing it and his dash attack is exceptional at punishing it.

 

[False Sense]

Incredible edge-guarding and use of tippers here.

 

[AfroShinobii]

My games start at
2:02:22 - 2:11:54 Bayo/Robin
2:37:00 - 2:43:14 vs Cloud
3:03:18 - 3:12:18 vs Greninja
3:12:18 - 3:21:00 vs pikachu
3:21:00-3:45:33 vs Cloud

Just looking for general advice this is my first tournament using corrin

 

[teddystalin]

Kinda shocked no one has posted anything from Ryuga's Corrin yet. 2nd at Landlocked is definitely the best result this character has so far.

 

[Fex13]

that just makes me think even more, that corrin vs mario is slightly in corrins favor and that cloud is about even.
diddy however....diddy is tough as expected. even though he played very solid, once diddys figure out how to fight corrin and just play lame it is going to be very very hard and definitely in diddys favor,imo.
nonetheless, great performence and definitely showing that corrin is indeed a viable character!

 

[Skitrel]

I find the difference between Ryuga's Corrin and Ryo's Corrin really interesting.

Ryo makes Corrin look faster than she usually is. Ryuga looks a lot slower and more methodical.

 

[Skitrel]

Couple of locals. They're a bit older now (3 weeks) and I can already see how much my approach to the MUs and vast general movement and spacing improvement I've had with her, but it's still worth hearing thoughts. For one you can see frequent attempts to get the ledgesnaps with tilted fsmash, definitely don't do that any more as it doesn't work.

This is back when I'd have called Mario a hard matchup, the Sonic main counterpicked to him. I don't think that's the case any more. The Mario main gave me real trouble in friendlies, he choked in serious matches.

I still think we Sonic is at a chunky disadvantage to Corrin.

Also, that last kill on James' Mario is the only time I've seen pin bug out so much that an opponent is nowhere near the lance but still pinned. Has anyone seen that before or know what causes it? Strange one.

My first tourney going all corrin getting 9th out of 55. At 28:00 you can find my match with my Crew member. Any critique would be appreciated.

 

[M@v]

Ill be updating the OP this weekend hopefully; most likely Sunday.

 

[Zephil]

I have some videos of a tourney I went a week ago. I finished 13th out of 33 which I am actually a little disappointing as I am pretty sure I can do better.

All of the matches are from the winner bracket and I will like your feedback guys to see which things I can improve.

An excellent showing from SmashG0D, vs a player of Ranai's caliber, no less.
I have yet to see a player use Corrin the same way as any other. This character is just beautiful.
