Vids from recent LA tourney

[Battousai780]

Yesterday, I placed 7th at a statewide LA tourney. Pretty much all of LA was there, and I have a view vids that you guys can critique and whatnot. I missed a few dairs, so yeah there's that (as in you don't need to tell me lol)

Anyways, here they are:

Batto(Black Marth) vs Ricky B(Marth)

I feel that during your Pit match you were getting overly stressed and were making a lot of mistakes because of it.
Your style changed a lot suddenly when it was both two stock each.
Both you and the Pit were spamming forward smashes at some points during this. It just looked like you lost your cool.

Vsing Pit, like many characters is all about spacing. luckily enough Pit isn't so concise with spacing like you require with MK. Pit's attacks are good and fast, but his range is unsatisfactory. Besides his shooting arrows (you really need to work on your timing for evading and perfect shielding that btw), if you run he can't really catch up, and when he tries to you have an opportune moment for punishment.

Also I didn't see, or didn't see many use of tilts at all. No dtilt? I did see some standing at the edge and spamming fsmash without being in the required range but no dtilt?

Don't approach THIS pit from the above, he is very well prepared for such attacks.

But yeah examples of you losing your cool:
Spamming Fsmash
While hanging on the edge jumping back on with DS, getting shielded nearly everytime.
You stopped using Dancing Blade.

Yeah, I tend to lose my cool sometimes and do ******** ****. I could also work on evading/perfect shielding the arrows. As for dtilt, I usually use it alot, but iunno what I was doing in these vids (excluding 1:55 on the first vid xD). Anyways, thanks for the advice.

Also Pit is one of the characters you can use counter with. Any boyish yell of attack is a sure sign way of knowing when to counter. Many points of this match I saw perfect times for a counter which would of really put the guy off his game. This Pit put you off your game; it should be the other way around, Marth is GOD in this area.

This Pit liked to approach you from below with attacks that don't give him much option if you are able to move. Also you would be most happy to keep Pit in the sky and above you in general. Even though his dair has good range and damage, oh boy does it put him in a tight spot.

I was kinda off because the guy who played this Pit (named Sudai) is really good and basically owned me several times earlier with his main, ROB. I almost had it in mind that I was going to lose. xD

 

[Shaya]

oh god... ROB.

I personally have nothing on a good ROB player. Luckily I havn't found one. ROB to me is the new MK.

 

[Battousai780]

I refuse to play ROB with Marth now, so I usually switch over to DDD.
