Hey guys. So everyone at the Olimar Skype chat (which you should join) has agreed that this thread is a good idea so im just gonna go along with it. We have decided on an idea that will let Olimar players get instant review on their play on a bi-weekly basis. We're going to collect youtube videos of Olimar play and critique it. Anyone can submit videos, all can critique. Here's how we're gonna do it.

To have your video critiqued just submit up to 3 videos below if you playing with Olimar. Note: the best way to improve is to learn from your mistakes. so send in matches where you lost/you think you did something wrong. Then, every other week on WEDNESDAY AT 4:00 PM EST we will start the lobby. The lobby will be using sync-youtube.com and we will post the chat in this thread.

So post videos of you playing Olimar and lets get this started!

This is a really good idea. My computer gets pretty stuttery trying to run OBS with dolphin so is there any problem if I just record it on my phone or something?

Since you're using sync-youtube I'm assuming it needs to be youtube videos? Cause I have most of my replays as twitch VoDs and I can def use some critique.

  • 16:28:51@steelgutteyimo pink fresh's olimar is better than his lucas
  • 16:28:39@steelgutteythat was nice
  • 16:28:36@steelgutteypurple side-b to usmash
  • 16:28:29@steelgutteythat was a ****ing amazing setup
  • 16:28:25@steelgutteydamn

  • 16:27:39@steelgutteydamn
  • ~Vladz0r has joined the room

  • ~Vladz0r has left the room
  • 16:27:10~Vladz0rwhoa the stream changed to a video
  • 16:27:07@steelgutteynow we're watching pink fresh vs chudat
  • ~Anonymous102 has left the room
  • 16:26:57~JordanToo much Pikmin Toss
  • 16:26:55~Vladz0rI wanted a 3rd match, but gj to Aero
  • 16:26:54@steelgutteyso
  • 16:26:43~Vladz0rah mman
  • 16:26:42@steelgutteythats ucks
  • 16:26:41@steelgutteydamn
  • 16:26:36@steelgutteyhit
  • 16:26:35@steelgutteyhes throwing so hard by just letting himself get him
  • ~Anonymous902 has left the room
  • 16:26:24@steelgutteywhen he got a white on him he shouldve just punished when tink tried to smack it off of him
  • ~Anonymous902 has joined the room
  • 16:26:01@steelguttey****ing comebacks
  • 16:25:51@steelgutteyyea
  • 16:25:37~Vladz0ridk, I guess I'll cite M2K and say that characters haven't been explored well enough. I don't know enough about all the characters, but this Tink is looking good, and that recovery is pretty strong
  • 16:25:36@steelgutteyyea at least twice
  • 16:25:23~Jordanwhen you get a flowered white, you should pummel every time
  • 16:24:53@steelgutteyinfinite recovery is stupid lol
  • 16:24:47@steelgutteytink is such a pain to edguard
  • 16:24:37@steelgutteythat was a nice fair
  • 16:24:30@steelgutteyyea dsmash should be faster imo
  • ~BobbyTheBrokeMonarch has joined the room
  • 16:24:27@steelgutteydamn that comback
  • 16:24:23~Jordan\it feels weird that Dsmash doensn't feel like a good punish move
  • 16:23:07@steelgutteyfull jump with dual aerials like fair to fair is hella strong tho
  • 16:22:54~JordanHe should be trying to get a 4th when he hits him off. 2Y and a B is not healthy
  • 16:22:33@steelgutteyif someone good knows the matchup then there isnt any point of using that as a strat
  • 16:22:22@steelgutteythats kind of a ****ty excuse tho
  • 16:22:11~Vladz0rpeople aren't used to the matchups and aware of their enemy's combo setups
  • 16:21:57@steelgutteyhes getting wayy too many
  • 16:21:53@steelgutteyhes getting so unlucky with these yellows
  • ~Anonymous883 has left the room
  • 16:21:46~Vladz0rwell, there's always the advantage of playing less popular characters, ones that aren't considered consistently top tier
  • ~Anonymous883 has joined the room
  • 16:20:57@steelgutteyi sure as hell dont think tink is bad
  • ~Anonymous468 has left the room
  • 16:20:52@steelgutteybut
  • 16:20:51@steelgutteywell considering its a whole subreddit idk
  • ~Anonymous468 has joined the room
  • 16:20:38~Anonymous102does r/ssbpm still think tink is bad?
  • 16:19:54@steelgutteythat **** is deadly
  • 16:19:49@steelgutteyso he lost the first round to a dthrow-up b combo
  • 16:18:50@steelgutteyimo hes using side b too much his pikmin are getting stuffed
  • 16:17:59@steelgutteyhe needs to throw out those yellows
  • 16:17:50@steelgutteyback
  • 16:17:45~Jordanlol, he lost a purple
  • 16:16:54~Anonymous102oh, I get it now
  • ~Vladz0r has joined the room
  • 16:16:41@steelgutteybrb
  • 16:16:24@steelgutteyand tink has so many projectiles
  • 16:16:17@steelgutteyolimar g ets zoned out hard by swords in general
  • 16:16:09@steelgutteythis matchup sucks tho
  • 16:15:54@steelgutteyss is regarded as the best pm olimar rn
  • 16:15:32@steelguttey?
  • 16:15:27@steelgutteythis is ss vs aero on tink
  • 16:15:25~Anonymous102can you tell those guys in the back to shut up please
  • 16:15:14@steelgutteyaight next video
  • 16:15:04@steelgutteyhes changing to lucas
  • 16:15:01@steelguttey****
  • 16:15:01@steelgutteyoh
  • 16:14:56@steelgutteyif mario isnt spamming fireballs you can get asically a free throw
  • 16:14:43@steelgutteypurple side b is really r eally really good in this matchup
  • 16:13:54@steelgutteybut there is so much tech olimar can use
  • 16:13:50@steelgutteymario already has a pretty fleshed out gameplan
  • 16:13:42@steelgutteyyea i agree
  • 16:13:26~Jordanone thing to remember about these matchups is that people know what Mario is capable of, but not Olimar. I think it says something when Mario can waste an Olimar when they know little about how to fight him.
  • 16:13:08@steelgutteyolimar can make great use of these ledges
  • ~Anonymous377 has joined the room
  • 16:12:50@steelgutteywarioware is a good stage for oli tho
  • 16:12:40@steelgutteyimo that isnt really good
  • 16:12:33@steelgutteyhes using dsmash when hes coming down on top of them
  • ~sdds has left the room
  • ~Anonymous930 has left the room
  • ~Anonymous930 has joined the room
  • 16:11:48@steelgutteycause it goes under most of marios stuff
  • 16:11:43@steelgutteydtilt is a really good thing here
  • 16:11:38@steelgutteynow that im thinking about it
  • ~Anonymous102 has joined the room
  • 16:11:20@steelgutteythat was a nice conversion
  • 16:11:17@steelgutteyohh
  • 16:10:49@steelgutteybut olimar must have trouble against fireballs
  • ~sdds has joined the room
  • 16:10:33@steelgutteyi dont play against enough good marios tho
  • 16:10:20~JordanI think Mario has the advantage over Olimar
  • 16:09:27@steelgutteyhandwarmers rn
  • 16:09:20@steelgutteydsmash is a blessing here
  • 16:09:12@steelgutteythis matchup is even imo
  • 16:08:52@steelgutteystata is playing mario
  • 16:08:52~Jordanhe did it like 3 times
  • 16:08:50@steelgutteyheres robosteven vs stata
  • 16:08:44@steelgutteyanyway
  • 16:08:43@steelgutteythat was a mistake
  • 16:08:40@steelgutteyyea
  • 16:08:33~JordanBW gets ahead of himself on the respawn. he pulls 2 pikmin then runs away from them and tries to do Usmashes and has no pikmin
  • 16:08:16@steelgutteyin the marth matchup you have to let him approach you and punish his moves
  • 16:08:07@steelgutteyyea he lost because he got zoned out
  • 16:07:56@steelgutteyuh
  • 16:07:55@steelgutteyaight
  • 16:07:55@steelgutteynope?
  • 16:07:45@steelgutteylet me see if there is more olimar
  • 16:07:42@steelgutteyhe moved to tink
  • 16:07:05@steelgutteyhes losing this game cause hes trying to rush him down then not sticking to what hes doing
  • 16:06:28@steelgutteythis is such a terrible matchup jesus christ
  • 16:05:59@steelgutteyhes getting zoned out really hard and getting bopped by fsmashs
  • 16:05:38@steelgutteynice uair
  • ~bingbong has left the room
  • 16:05:29@steelgutteynice fair
  • 16:05:20@steelgutteybad idea
  • 16:05:19@steelgutteyhe spawned then didnt immediately pluck, he just whistled
  • ~bingbong has joined the room
