Cause Ganon and Bowser are the most beast characters in this game.

I know they were sandbagging but **** I wasn't. I just got owned plain and simple. lol. I don't really care if they were sandbagging if I still lost. It just means I was doing something very very wrong. Thanks for pointing it out steel.

I lol'd a little. <3 Junk.

There were people recording every bloody match at the tournament but nobody is speaking up about any of the recordings. I'll try and get a hold of my singles matches so I won't have any more lame johns for losing. Instead I just lose cause I was being ******** >> My own fault. =b

No, I wrote out a long *** critique, then it somehow got deleted all the way at the end. Then I cut myself and am now in the hospital. I'll rewrite it when I get out (later tonight or tomorrow).

I got an EasyCap, so I wanted to try it out. These are all videos from around the same time as the others I've posted; I'll try to suck less and get some better ones up soon.

You lean WAYYYY too far into your fairs. Same problem as me >>
So ya, learn to space yourself more in your fairs or you'll continuously fail epicly as Marth....just like me! =D

But ya, I recommend reading the stickies. Too much counter, you kept using like two moves(fair and DB....that was like it =[ ), almost no short hops(full hop is alright against DK but I don't think I saw a single SH in the entire match...).

Read the stickies.

As fear said, the lack of short hops was kind of painful. They really make approaching a lot less predictable, or at least harder to punish. I also find it easier to retreat with them in short hops, since in full hops, you need to put more time into going forward, but that's just personal preference.

In the DK one, you hit his shield with DB when he was near the edge a couple times. Once, you pushed him off with it. When he's that close, I like to use the down ending, since it's more likely to push them off, keeping them from punishing. Plus, it'll hit them once they're off, more likely.

And yeah, the stickies are really helpful. Most of the advice I could offer is said better there, and they're pretty comprehensive.

Sword, your Marth is most likely better than mine anyways, so I can't critique too much. But anyways, all I can say is stop getting edgehogged ;] In other words, stall in the air using a db or two, until your opponent's invincibilty frames are over, then you can DS to make it back up.

I'll post a few videos of myself on here and will gladly take any advice. I have a lot of room for improvement, considering how my spacing's not the greatest; and that's half of what Marth's all about ;].
