I don't "main" link but I play everybody. GG's though.

For your Pika your dash dancing was nice but you only used it when you were going for up smashes. You went for up smashes when you were down or when I just killed you. You did good cross ups but you could do up air after a SHFFL nair or a jolt. Don't be too predictable with your recovery, you pretty much only did: DJ Jolt -> QA to the middle of the stage. When I was playing M2 I was able to air spike you some of the times and then punish your landings other times (other times I just can't do stuff on wifi :l ).

For your Sheik the grab commons were nice but your edge guarding was lacking. Take a more aggressive approach and sit on the ledge and Bair them out (if they have a bad recovery so you can do this). You also Up Smash spammed with Sheik too, if you're going to go greedy then SHFFL fair or go for grabs so you can fair them offstage. You seemed unsure of what to do against pushdown (my CF). When you're in shield you can nair OoS, Bair OoS, grab, WD OoS, just try to get them off so you can get back to neutral. When you're in neutral wall characters out with Bair and needle, you can do other stuff too but that's a small breakdown.
thank i know i get really predictable at times with pika i need to work on that ggs
and thanks for the tips

Ggs dude, even with the frustration from the lag
True. I even SD'd myself over it and got so irritated. Went to ledgejump that one time and nope, halfway down to the blastzone. >> That last match was the worst with those inconsistent spikes.
But still. Your Snake is really fun to fight, and admirable Yoshi there. ^^ Great games!

Holy ****ing **** ****. We've been playing for nearly four hours, my god. I was supposed to call m'lady tonight, but I don't know if she's still up at this point.

Those were the funnest games I've played in a very long time, haha. The Pika v. Samus matches were really ****ing intense. <3 You know your characters really well, and your Falcon looks to have improved since I last played it. Had a hard time keeping up against u-air. That DK was getting work done. I haven't gotten any DK experience like that since the last time I played PolarBear. Damn str8 m8.

I left for the reason I mentioned above, but it'd be great to play again some other time.

Teching online is no joke. I swear my heart skips a beat sometimes whenever I manage to do it. It looked like you actually had the hang of it too, but I don't usually go for stage spikes anyhow.
You said I actually had the hang of it but compared to how many stage spikes you survive I feel like I didn't get the hang of it lol. I can pretty much play for days when I am wanting to do better. Recently, learned how to BDACUS on wiimote+nunchuck woot!(actually WAY easier than on GCC).
Ah man I have to figure out how to play pika at a neutral game and maybe less predictable. O yea the DK was like tough to use because I am still having trouble figuring out what the jump and grab buttons would best be. Every time I stayed grounded, I wondered if I could just bair then I thought about my Reverse Aerial Rush success rate and determined that bair was near unusable. The non legit grab button also doesn't help with pika's amazing buffered chain grabs.

So would anyone like to play at this time?

I suppose I could do my best to try and give you some games, lol. If you learned from last time though... don't expect much out of me. ;P

Good games! someonerandom. Sorry towards the end. After Ice climbers I realized that if I am at a disadvantage I can't go aggro with falcon without losing horribly or facepalming myself for all my mistakes so I tried to perfect my defensive game. I was working on that during falcon vs kirby/snake and succeeded during falcon vs luigi. I managed to basically space perfectly and delete most of your options...but I generally still let myself make trades I thought were worth it.

I can't dash jump with this controller which gets rid of all my major uair strings and the majority of my frame traps. It also takes away from my dair usage and spacing when playing aggressively.

Good games, PZ. I wanted a Falcon ditto at the end, the manliest match of all time... :p

We had some pretty close games in there. This guy is not clutch though. D: I missed all of those techs, I swear I hit the button every single time. >.< I don't need to say anything about your Falcon... lol

Edit: Everyone does that to me, lol. Even people I've never met online... We'll be playing, and sooner or later they realize that waiting for me to approach always works since I usually don't have a projectile. .-.

O sorry I kinda stopped playing because during the last match I had to get doorbell and it was one of my friends. Not that it stopped me from playing but I realized I still gotta review my homework for tomorrow and iron clothes. Teching online is so hard lol. I don't see how some people do it except when I was teching mr game and watch's throw but thats a different story.

Ah, I see. Not a problem. I'm done all my exams for this term so I get the rest of the week off. ;P +1 to teching online. You almost have to predict whether your opponent is going to go for something, then you also have to guess when to tech since it input isn't immediate, lol.

Anyway, good games; I hope I didn't disappoint. ;)

Yea good games and nah man you did great. I completely learned the luigi and snake matchup as falcon although I am still salty about losing the kirby and ice climbers but that will come another day. :D

Okay, okay, okay, so, after leaving my copy of Brawl at a tournament out of state and never getting it back after a month of waiting, I finally bought a new game, and I can try to get back into the swing of things! So, on that note, does anyone want to Brawl? :D

Not comfortable with where the connection is going. Good games, though. Try not to play so recklessly aggressively with Marth. Use your attacks more for spacing rather than rushing forward with aerials and smash attacks, especially attacking my shield and putting yourself in easy grab range.

OH MY GAWD, what happened to me in the past month? Dx
Well, good games anyway, I guess. Although I know that I was beyond horrible today, I still noticed a few things:
As for your Yoshi, you seem to have a habit of rolling toward your opponent. Never do that. Just running up or even approaching with a move is fine, but never approach with a roll - it has too much lag.
Also, with all of your characters, half the time you seem to be playing, but then the other half, you seem to just button mash. Do you? (I know I was during those matches, since I forgot so much. xP) Well, all I can say is try not to button mash.
Then, as for ZSS, her FSmash is not really a good option. B Side beats it by a lot, especially when your spacing and timing is good. Just never use FSmash. Also, USmash isn't that practical. (Trust me, I used to main ZSS.) Then, make sure to keep your armor pieces on the stage! I can't stress that enough. That's what makes ZSS SSS Tier, as long as she has those pieces. ;3
Well, hopefully we can play again once I've warmed up enough~

Not at all, Sonsa. You're not bad, just focus on better spacing your attacks and using less ground dodges. Those left you most open for punishment. Use more grabs and take note of character tendencies/options, since those will really help you in the long run. I like your Ness. c: Have a good night.
