I seen too many videos and its all the same when it comes to how Peach is played. Mindgames is the least amount used from what I see in videos. What I see the most is Combos and Fancy stuff. And The people they are fighting just aint having that, so when they shut all that down, then what does the player have since that all they depend on.
Here is something about me that most don't know. I am not a combo type of player. I dont really go after them so much. Nor do I tend to use alot of tricks, or even gimp the player if I could ( example, F-B someone off the stage FTW ). And as for advance stuff, I only Glide toss and use reverse air attacks. And I will even admit I am not really a stratigic person. I can give the advice on matches and etc, because I study Peach alot and her match ups as well. So I can get into deep details with advice. But I don't really use it.
The way I use my Peach is all mindgames. And my mindgames links to how the person plays. if you are agressive, I am just gonna bait your attacks (since mostly you will just attack me most of the time first and come to me) then punish. And I'll just toy with your head to get you to attack, make you flinch, roll, side step and take it from there. If you wanna be on the defense so will I, But I will just be baiting you to attack, to drop you defense. I will not rush you at all till I see an opening I can take and abuse. And if the player is mixed and just wants to look fancy with combos and etc., I am just gonna abuse w/e habit you have. And if you dont have much, I'll just try to bait the player and use w/e mindgame that comes to my head.
I play her creative and in my own way. I am now trying to look at all these fancy tricks, combos or w/e there is out there right now. Cause all of this is new to me. I been looking in the brawl advance techs area. And there are things I can do with Peach that I never do and seem cool. Like the pivot. For this I feel my Peach is an idiot, but smart at the same time. I say this because:
Good- My mindgames does take me far and up till this point I have done a good job with Peach in tournaments and have beating good players. Depending on how the opponent plays, I create a way to play them. And it can work to get me the win or close to it, ether way I put up a good fight. I know how to mess with people and bait them to flinch, bait them or roll. and good at abusing habits.
Idiot- I feel if I was to use some of the stuff I don't use with Peach, I do much better than I do now. Maybe add a few tricks, hell even some combos. Take the risk to gimp the player if I have the chance. Use some more advance techs like the pivot and that turnip cancel thing off the edge. And not always playing it safe all the time, cause that's what I mostly do, my Peach is a coward when t comes to taking a risk that could just work but I would not know cause I did not try.
I guess I am kinda complicated but thats about it. But Edresse I agree with and he is correct.
Oh and pardon me for being so bold, but wouldn't it be a good idea to back away from the snake when you see him shielding you diar and thenmove back in with another dair or trying to land and grab giving you hitboxes as you land and super armor frames so you at worst take the damage and not the knockback.
If you move back in Snake can just Uptilt you and you will ether cancel his attack with yours or you will eat his utilt. I hope you know the range of that move, the speed and how much power it has, thats all snake has to do and he can shut your dair down. And if he wanted to he can just run away, or aim the shield UP so you can't shield stap him, then you will eat an uptilt.
See, how that works all about thinking from a smart snake. I don't play snake. But I always put myself on the enemies position. and think ' Ok, I am gonna do this * insert w/e it is here* Now, what can snake do to stop this and turn it around." And I learn about what the character can do. Then think of a way to punish what I would do, in this case, Peach's Dair. Now that I know, this, I am not more aware of what can happen and have to be extra careful. I may get away with it. I may not. Its all situation. I will NEVER think one thing will always work against smart people. I put myself in thier shoes and see it from thier side. Thats another way you get better with your character and learn match ups.
