I'M CRITIQUING ONE GAME OF EVERYTHING FOR NOW TO CATCH UP
lol
DARKRAIN
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rN0ENOpLd6A&feature=feedu
if you only have time to critique one, i'd prefer game 2.(both should be fun to watch). thanks!
0:16- Running straight at Falcon too much. Darkrain is already aggro so trying to go at him without appropriate laser cover is a big no no.
0:18- All of that jumping in place and shielding just encourages Falcon to attack. Remember your Bair and CC still **** among other things.
0:26- no reason to run under Falcon if you're just going to lose any advantage for doing so. Try to scare Falcon into staying still then ****** him or ****** him for doing stuff into staying still then ****** him....lol.
0:30- Got grabbed because you expected Darkrain to mindlessly follow you as you ran offstage. Should have DJ double lasered.
0:44- AC Bair to shine won't connect on a Falcon who jumps OOS because that's too slow.
0:52- Should have held him in place with a laser at least(maybe with an ftilt/fsmash followup) so he couldn't get out of the pressure/combo so easily.
1:01- Just Fsmash/Dsmash the roll. Even if he goes the other way he'll still be flying off very far/dying.
then you always teched....probably should've missed a tech or something(maybe spun the stick?) around this point lol.
1:31- You were just too slow for both of those executions. I feel like that Dair you did was impossible though so just learn to fall with a laser and maintain control instead of look for a combo to get ahead sometimes. Control leads to combos.
1:36- a ton of flubs which I believe could have given you a grab or at least some solid shield pressure opportunities.
1:41- Don't space Bair if you're going to shine afterward.
1:51- Once you saw Darkrain that close to the stage you should have DJ Bair'd(could have dsmashe'd the airdodge recovery too)....or if you saw the airdodge you could have wavelanded onstage and punished too most likely.
2:10- Dair wouldn't have done much at that point anyway lol. Should have wavelanded to some kind of punish or shine wavelanded to keep the combo going.
2:24- Ran right at Falcon again lol.

I beat him in pools, and got RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPED in bracket, any feed back is appreciated.
0:15- Fall down with him when you Dair.
0:17- Dair was too early.
0:28- Don't Fsmash. React with Bairs or uptilts/dsmashes.
0:38- If you had watched his side b you could have jumped over to him and hit him before he could have moved.
0:42- You just kinda let him fall. Challenge his fall with Bairs or by staying close to where he would land to pressure him.
then that dash attack you did is the one you never do after a roll XD
1:16- You come back and throw out a lot of Bairs. Make sure they're at the right angles(hitting with the backside is much easier obviously), and that you're giving the opponent enough time to run into your bairs in between attempts.
1:37- You were way too far away for shine to connect.
1:54- Try not to roll into Fox if you can help it. That usually creates problems for Falco.
2:18- Good bait attempt but sometimes it's better to just control Fox with lasers(especially if he's farther away) than to trick him into attacking you(better if he's closer).
2:41- Fox's expect side B into them a lot so try not to do that too often. side b to the edge or up b anywhere ***** lol.

Critique it please.
I want to find out what I should work most on and what I should do differently
Also, some general advice would be appreciated =)
These are just a few friendlies with a buddy of mine.
0:18- Tech skill.
0:23- Marth isn't stunned long enough for that unfortunately.
0:52- jab dtilt doesn't work lol.
1:00- Don't force the Dair if you didn't DJ to get it the first time. Just recoup and look for a way to get a Bair or another way to surprise Marth.
1:09- DJ'ing beside Marth doesn't kill him. Bait the up B with a SH or something but in the end you want to edgehog or dsmash him or something. Bair would've worked there.
1:21- Shine was way too far away, and losing the DJ vs Marth as a spacie sucks so don't fall into him if you do.
1:31- You're not approaching with those aerials when that's clearly what you're trying to do. Go into Marth if you're wanting to aerial and he's shielding.
2:22- Did the Dair too early so Marth recovered from lag/stun first.
Yeah you just don't have a solid flow yet but keep at the tech and movement/combo practice and you'll get there.
Sorry didn't know the links were bad.
Videos are old as hell but meh, why not.
Can you guys critique these for me? I'd appreciate it. I know i was playing around in these matches for the most part but i know I still made mistakes that could be pointed out. I think my falco was overall a lot more technical back then, trying to return to that base.

vid 1:
0:15- Jumping high above anyone is a bad idea, but not spacing the Dair was just as bad. Also you had ICs in a good position(afraid of you) and you ran away and DJ'd. Just keep pushing at that point.
0:25- Dash attack almost never works on someone shielding.
0:44- Get away instead of spotdodging unless you actually see the attack coming.
0:53- Make sure you have your spacing right on the Dair or just DJ away and reassess the situation.
1:00- Work on the sweetspot.
1:10- Do the Dair later but tech skill I think too for that and the earlier Dair.
2:30- Trying to directly shine ICs isn't worth it because you won't hit them with it. Better to space moves ot retreat after shining vs them.
2:50- Don't shine if your move is even kind of spaced.
3:07- A lot of attacks but none of them placed well. Think your opponent's moves through more.
3:47- Need to make a better effort to stay moving/away from danger zones. Take a breather on a platform if you need to.
The first two are for falco. Umm, some background - I've just started introducing myself to the community. I've played smash for quite awhile, not to the degree of intensity you guys do. Just a warning, I suck. But my goal is to be one of the best names. I'm still young and I have potential if I get some help.

Well, if you could get some videos vs actual humans that would help. =)
Try to get your tech skill down a little more, and to combo cleanly into an efficient edgeguard for now.
Looking for any advice, specific or general. At the very least, enjoy the second vid with me scrambling to not get JV4ed by my idol, the Penis Professor himself. LOL All of these were live streamed at like 6 AM on the last day of Pound by Vectorman and Redd.

vid 1:
0:44- Did the SH for the Dair too early.
0:46- Make sure you're verrry close to Falcon when you do that shine or it won't work.
1:00- edgehop bair
1:10- Way too far away for that Fsmash to work. Stay close when tech chasing.
1:25- Falcon landed with an aeiral, be ready for more. Space to avoid it and punish or just chill for a second to see what he does.
1:42- I bet if you DI'd away you might have been able to edgecancel.
1:48- empty hopping inside of falcon with no laser coverage? not a good idea.
2:05- Getting hard punished for those empty hops.
2:09- Always take a second to see if you're gonna get attacked before doing that roll.
then you just kinda started throwing out moves......get a flow going.
2:59- too many patterned things....don't commit to one set of moves once you use one. be flexible.
stop running into falcon when he's about to do a move/doing a move and that'll help too lol
whew
