Decent enough, not like my older stuff (during an embarrassing funk). Even though vy likes to play keep away and doesn't let me do anything flashy, I like the vid overall.

My offical john for my second stock (his last), I was looking for a shoryuken so I could yell it. Instead of actually fighting.

Please and thankyou tell me what I did all wrong. Sliq and OS ****ed my **** up at a tourny this weekend and I want to change that. (I did ok vs kel though :chuckle:(even though he's still way ****ing better than I am))

Wishing Apex 2012 happened again.
:47 why did you spam fireballs at something so pointlessly? you can have just run and go for a Bair.

:56 don't DJ and use GM, you'll get punished 95% of the time

1:08 after nair, upairs and spaced bairs are always free

1:12 you should keep yourself moving just as the mario was.

3:13 mario could have stutter stepped fsmash and take you out

3:20 I tell this to every luigi player, don't use DJ/nado recovery unless you truly need to and better yet, it's better to mash just using tornado to lessen the chances of getting punished.

3:26 See because ^^ you got killed.

3:53, the ****? the Mario used 3 bthrows making it stale, he should have used dthrows instead.

4:08, mario was a camping platform, you could have run in and did reverse upairs from under. Reverse upair covers whole platform

Overall: You played too safe. Abit too much on the SH double aerials. You had alot of oppunities to atttack and punish but you didn't. Pretty much your ol' average luigi <3.

Thanks for the reply! I'll try to let you know what I was thinking. Whether or not it was the right thing to do.

47: This one I know is right. It's brinstar, spamming fireballs=free stale moves list.

1:08 I figured he'd airdodge an aerial, and I wanted to see what he was going to do. What do you suggest after an airdodged uair?

1:12 I was trying to bait him on to the platform, since at 112 I have alot more options to kill from that spot than the rest of the map.

3:13-3:20 Truth! Mistakes on my part.

4:08 Vy doesn't like it when he cant fireball camp you. I wanted to make him move, since his approach game isn't as good as his camp.

I have to say you're absolutely right about the SH double aerials. Mixups are required.

This was all from the 40 man I took 7th at (spec tries to say 7th was his, but I say otherwise =P) Behind equi, tactical (crazy lucario around here), OS, Jiano, DraikRoan, and Light (in that order). More vids from the same tourny are coming sooner or later.

Do you have any vids of you vs. Sliq/OS/Kel??? That would be sick.

Edit after watching the vid:
I like your use of Dair (like when he rolled at you and you short hopped it). It was efficient and worked. Now one thing I noticed, that I do myself more than I like, was using the move that feels comfortable rather than efficient. I noticed at one point he was standing right next to you on a platform and you short hopped a Dair at him rather than just turn around and grab/Fsmash/whatever him. You had all kinds of options but you played it safe and got into the air when you could have done some serious damage. I don't know the player, so it might have been the right choice against that particular mario, but thats just my two cents. Good to see you getting more into the tournament scene Cr4sh, with some more work you could be great. You definitely have enough good players to practice against around there. Keep it up dude.

I think we should make a thread for all vids like this (Stikied). What do you think, I'll make it and ask for stikie.

Thanks for the encouragement bro. Good advice too.

Can't make the tourny tomorrow, but I might be able to make it in time for some friendlies afterwards, and I'll try to implement all your advice. It seems the overwhelming sentiment is to get in people's faces some more, which will definetly be happening.

As for vids vs top players, yeah, there should be my vids up of our crew battle (we got horse ****ed, cincinnati>louisville as far as smash is concerned) I took kel's last stock and he took 7 of ours total (ouch), then I get rizzidy rizzidy ***** by OS and his meta. I did put 110 damage on him before he took my two stocks though, better than I thought I'd get. (better player+GODAWFUL matchup= instant death). Look for those soon. I just wish I could have screamed shoryuken at someone on the tape :urg:
