Kind of hard to judge, because at times you all played really well, then at times really bad... Especially that Kirby player. He could have played much better. I mean he could have effectively ledge hogged you and Gao a couple of times, and while you kind of mind gamed him into the Fsmash, he literally hops into a glide attack on his first stock against you.

As for your MK, well, at first you were being unpredictable, but after you lost a stock it got kind of sloppy (though the Kirby got even sloppier, so I guess it worked out...) and really predictable. Also, I don't know if I'm missing out on something, but if you're not even trying to hit anything with the glide attack, isn't easier/faster to just jump cancel it?

All in all, you're pretty good, but don't lose focus, even if it is clear you're going to win.

That's my 2 cents.

Bump; I replaced the vids with better quality ones with **** talking :)

The sheik is the 2nd best Sheik in Vegas and is very good, something to definitely check out. I spent the whole match avoiding grabs.

That one against Sheik is much, much better IMO. The only tip I can give is that there were a couple of times where grabs would have been a more effective option. baiting with the tornado to a D-smash was cool though.

Also, kind of off topic, but the first match with Gao and the fox player who's name I've already forgotten: Amazing.

Work on your ground game. You were doing fine with your aerial spacing, but you need to work on getting an efficient grab game and spacing with your tilts.

Only saw the video against the kirby player, and even so, I only saw like half of it, because I was too busy lol'ing at his SD.

Overall, not too bad, but yeah definitely work on the spacing. I'd like to see more SHFF fairs to be honest. And ftilt. But then again, I didn't watch the whole thing...

I'm kinda doing work now at the moment too =/

Watch the Sheik one. It shows him in a better light.

From Sheik since there's A LOT less to correct, you should try not to use bair so much, and everything everyone else said. Oh, and don't use DR unless you're going to end on the ledge. Also, unless they're at low %, don't use dash attack primarily as an attack, but to space while threatening an attack.

That side B at the end was a ****up :o

Watching these vids actually makes me see what I'm doing wrong and where I'm not playing correctly or simply just waiting and not really playing.

Also, kind of off topic, but the first match with Gao and the fox player who's name I've already forgotten: Amazing.
Gao has the best Diddy in Vegas :) barring a sudden attack of Bob the Builder (old best Diddy from back in the day, retired???)

My crew consists of Gao (#1 diddy), Mi (#1 Snake, power ranked #3), Skat (#2 Marth after DannyKat, several top 4 finishes), Forth (#3 metaknight), Press22 (#1 sickest Pikachu ever), Miniboss (#1 counterpicker, with a few top 8s), Myself (worst Metaknight, haha!), Billy (best recording, most spam), and Peapo (Best Peach, power ranked #9?, 7th at BIO, 5th teams AZOne, 4th teams BIO). If Gao and Skat both attended tournaments regularly, they'd both be top 8 power ranked, and both can compete with (but not often beat) top Vegas names like SK92, LeoFTW and DannyKat. Represent!
