Not a bad video at all, but I can't help but feel that your opponents are either NPC's or completely ********. I like your combo's though, definitely sexy combo's.

Im with Sailboat on this one, nice., flashy combos (meaning its a good combo video ) and stupid opponents.

less spikes would be nice because we all know marth can spike, but at least it has less than Kadaj's =P

Lol, it's really funny that your opponents NEVER airdodge. Makes Marth a badass.

Try to find players that play more defensively (and smarter), and it will be more interesting.

Many times, you wern't reading the opponent, you just kept throwing out attacks while your opponent just took it.

Combo videos always seem unrealistic. That said, they're about showing the flashiest stuff a character can do. And Marth is capable of some darn flashy stuff. Lots of sexy moves here. My favorite combo here is probably shield breaker to up taunt. So good. Also, I was glad to see that it wasn't just spikes, spikes, spikes, though there were a lot. There were other unrealistic moves here too. Not gonna lie, the offstage shield breaker was pretty sweet too.

Nice combo vid Ramin. =P
And anyone saying that his opponents suck. Trust me they're good. And the whole point of a combo vid is too make you look godly and make them look like noobs. Look at ANY combo video. I think you will find that this happens a lot.

Most of the people in this combo vid are good players. It's hard to airdodge when you are being hit by him he's going too fast.
It's like "Don't get grabbed Marth edition" The side b combo's in this vid are unescapable if they are escapable someone has to show me how. But you did a hell of a job Nice combo vid ramin

I'll wait for Steel or one of the other elitist kids to say you suck and can't space well and your opponents can't DI or dodge and all that other jazz that gets flamed onto every combo vid.

I thought it was entertaining.

Well, how much of the video was wifi? Cause I saw a ton of wifi stuff. But the editing and music was nice. Some stuff was good, but too much dair for my taste.

Simply check Marth's Fram Data:

The first hit of dancing blade has 21-22 frames of stun. And at least 23 frames of cooldown. So if Marth hits with the first strike and does not continue, his opponent wil come out of hitstun before marth's cooldown ends. Marth's fastest attack is 4 frames. Shields come up in 2 frames. The math says that just by holding down a shield button, any dancing blade -> other attack combo is blockable on the ground and airdodgable in the air.

The combos in the video are not inescapable, they are chains of attacks that link together because the victim is making a predictable choice and getting ***** for it. Case in point: Opening sequence Dancing Blade -> Shieldbreaker. Marth hits the first swing and shields, snake could have: Spot dodged, Rolled/ran away, attacked, Shielded. Snake chose to shield, and gets said shield broken. Not a combo, its punishment for making a predictable choice. In other words it was a mindgame.

Combo videos are not meant to accurately portray what is consistently possible with a character at a high level of play. Its meant to show off long flashy sequences which this video does quite nicely. Now if you expect someone like M2K, or even a button masher, to constantly eat combos like this; you are sadly mistaken.

If any of these were actually inescapable other than "don't get hit," Marth would be Akuma tier.

That aside, entertaining video and well put together but the graphic effects distract from the awesomeness of repeated sword slashes. Oh, LOL at the broken shield plummet of doom on zelda.

Really not a bad video. Shieldbreaker to up taunt was awesome. A bit heavy on the spikes but overall not bad at all.

entertaining vid however unrealistic, one editting beef, the intro is too long, it's like 1:30 before you see any actual gameplay

taunting immediately after shield break is too good

Dont trip about the sucky opponents. In a combo vid, you are SUPPOSED to pwn your opponents. I mean c'mon this is brawl were talking about, BRAWL! COMBOS DON EXITS!!! I enjoyed the video but that long intro was "wtfizz did i just get rick rolled?"

Lol, not to be a ****, but it looks like some of those who posted on this thread and on the youtube reply's made their accounts just to comment on how godly you are. I like seeing Marth shltrocking people as much as the next guy, I just can't help but notice that all of these people apparently started playing today. Don't give me that about all combo video's are supposed to be "flashy"; that's true, but it's supposed to be flashy stuff that you've done to real people. For example, during such and such competition I facerolled this guy who is likely one of the best blabla's in Nevada.. or something. Not, 'oh I got my sister to help me make this video; we started the game and she went afk'.

On another note, again, it's a nice video. If I didn't already play Marth, you'd have sold me.

I have to agree with the person that said your opponents are ********. Had you been playing me or the friend I typically play this game with, half that crap wouldn't have worked. Play people with more skill.

Your skill wasn't that bad, you just need to get rid of using Neutral B every second, because that won't work at all against someone who has skill and you'll just end up getting hit every time you use it.

None of your edge guarding techniques I can remember off the top of my head would have worked against someone will skill. All you have to do is DI past that. The person playing donkey kong who kept getting owned by your down A as an edge guard was an idiot. He could have easily avoided your attack.

Honestly, I don't like combo videos that much because all they do us show spiking. Personally I don't like spiking that much because in a real match it works about as much as CPR does in a rescue situation and it gets harder every single time you do it. Typically, If I can't spike someone in under 50%, I just give up on it and use my other moves. They have a much higher chance of working.

Seriously, combo vids/montages are ment to be entertaining, not a skillfest. If you guys are commenting on someones skill by watching a combo video, you are idiots. I'm pretty sure that if one of you guys made a combo video, the result wouldn't be much different. Go watch his matches on his profile if you want to see his skill.

End.

What i dont like about Combo Vids is that most Opponents in those vids are bad as hell.
Those here were even worse xP

But cool "Combos" I guess ;)

Well I suppose everything else is fine then. But it is a nice touch if the person making the vid is also really good.
