I would disagree with some of that, not all smashes are kill moves for example look at ZSS none of her smashes can kill, also some smashes are good for low percent combos such as Pika's, Luigi's, and Falco's usmashes.

Edit: @Ben: I know the feeling I went to a Melee tourney a few nights ago and my hand is still sore from wavedashing so much.
Well... I was assuming everyone knew what I meant by spamming smashes. ZSS F-smash or Olimar's white pikmin almost never kills under 150%. And smashes that can combo, like the ones you mentioned, dont really count. When I talk about spamming smashes, Im talking about using them(any smashes) at the wrong times, just to hit your opponent.

GGs Courage you seem to be using more eggs now and keeping your distance. That's good when fighting against Peach plenty since its actually a mostly defensive matchup really. Came pretty close in some of those.

I got to showcase Zelda lol. I don't really play her, but I was in the mood to try someone different this time.

Enjoyed the matches lol

I do have to fight fire with fire lol. Throwing the eggs are good lol at certain distances of course, but much harder against speedy characters like ZSS.

I do have to admit you're definitely being one of harder Yoshi players I've fought.

Edit: Surprised you didn't use Fox this time lol.

@Gohan/Deadjames: Very interesting points. Gohan, I didn't know some people would consider that spamming! I mean, I always thought that spamming was just using the same move mindlessly a bunch of times. I only used it twice in a row, I really don't think that should be counted as spamming. But I'll keep that in mind with the stale thing you mentioned!

GGs kester. Your good! I dont know why you kinda talk yourself down to think your not as good as you are. The only suggestion I would have would be not to roll so much, try to keep it under 15 per match (thats my mindset) but its up to you. I just cant punish rolls, but if you fought DAS...

But yeah, those were fun. It was exciting getting to use all of those characters again after so long.

Well I usually believe not putting yourself where she wants you be and reacting fast really.

Edit: Hit the reply before I even finish lol. Anyway ZSS players have to be precise with her moves and setups. She shouldn't really just throw out attacks since it kind of leaves her open to counters.

For example, Front B its a bad idea if I don't either hit you with the tip from the right range or if you're right on me and you didn't react to it.

Any other range not at the tip can leave ZSS open if you react fast enough. You gotta really stay on her, but be smart about it though. That's why ZSS players tend to move around a lot, so she can try to get you where she wants you to be.

Its also best for you to be under her if you are attacking in the air. Other positions she can at least trade with you or stun you, or uair you.

Yoshi vs ZSS I honestly believe you should focus most on edgeguarding her. She just seems to quick for him to camp properly and her front b mess with his ledge camping to.

Just be careful with how you approach though.

The Fox thing sounds like I am with Mario.

Meteor:

GGS guys.

Thanks... I try to stick to marth, sometimes I can use Shelda great... It's a mood thing... Right now I am just tired... I want to get better at Toon Link, but his spike is WAY to tempting for me... I used to be a solid fox back in my items days. My biggest fox problem is that I no longer understand what he SHOULD be doing... Also I'm convinced his dair is a spike... I think the hitbox is on the back of his head... Marth is the only character I've ever looked up tech for, heck I looked up Marth tech when I played casual. I just love Marth the most...
