Vids of my Peach in friendlies, DOUBLES INCLUDED

[Gea]

Nothing terribly spectacular, but since I never posted up any you get to see it in action. I play wildly different than most Peach players, especially East Coast peaches. I'm not really looking for advice- these were for fun and I'm pretty happy with how things go. I'd be more than willing to discuss doubles with anyone who has comments/questions, but these are mainly for entertainment.

There might be more with someone who I don't play with 100% of the time (RT, lol) but we'll see.

Peach/DK is probably my favorite team.


Gea (Peach) vs RocketTrainer (Lucario):

Nice Peach, I just suggest more turnips against the Lucario matchup. He has too much range and lingering hitboxes to poke around up close against.

Good matches, I enjoyed watching the first two. I'll get to the rest later.

 

[Gea]

I don't really have problems with RT or any Lucario (cept maybe Lee Martin if I have to play him, LOL) but I am trying to increase my turnip game.

Thanks for watching.

 

[RT]

I'll have to destroy you next time! Yeah, I dunno, I do weird stuff in friendlies sometimes, lol.

 

[hiROI]

I like your peach ;D
You should momentum cancel more.
But other than that,

 

[tonyrulz92]

Yeah what hiRoi said. I was about to ask you do you ever momentum cancel.

 

[Razmakazi]

but yea, use uair + fastfall for your momentum cancel. i saw ur youtube comment. using float kinda hurts u a bit and liek u can keep ur DJ and Float w/ the uair + fastfall or uair to bomber if u wanna recover high.

but yea duuuuude turnip oos is raape and like ur peach, hated the texture though. i was kinda rooting for rockettrainer b/c those lucario textures are so ****. omg umbreon texture ftw. i gotta get my **** hacked man. >_<

 

[Gea]

lol I was trying out that texture, I don't care too much for it either, her dress makes it too shiny. Mario that way looks pimped out.

And the umbreon was egyptian Lucario.

Yeah I know I should momentum cancel more, I'm just so lazy. There was one match where I SDI'd a fsmash at 50-60% up onto a platform instead of flying away. I may be lazy bout momentum cancelling but at least I have good DI.

I'll get some more without me playing RT. There was some of me vs Jog but they got deleted. I molested him pretty badly in those. Hobo 16 is this weekend. My goal is to place higher than Praxis. We'll see how that goes with seeding and whatnot. (Hope he gets Razer just so he can see what he's like to play)

 

[KOS-MOS]

<3 your Peach Gea!

Also I agree with more turnips against lucario. Playing Lee Martin taught me that LOL.

 

[Gea]

Thanks KOS-MOS. :D

 

[RT]

Lies, Turnips are useless! Except when he gets like a Bomb and Stitch Faces. You always get good pulls against me.

 

[Deleted member]

you jump into lucario's **** a lot. attack more, try to combo less and I think you'll do better.

 

[Praxis]

lol poor guy I three stocked him twice I think in tournament, felt bad xD Was he playing Olimar on you, or G&W?

My goal is to place higher than Praxis. We'll see how that goes with seeding and whatnot. (Hope he gets Razer just so he can see what he's like to play)

You @#$%ing jinxed me. #@!$%^@$# Dojo.

xD I wanted to comment on your Peach; nice stuff! TBH I dunno about the "more turnips vs Lucario" advice, I find that he can do some good things with them out of glide toss and more importantly, his hitboxes kind of eat them. The key to that matchup is powershielding though, and conserving jump and float because you can't airdodge through his attacks like a fully charged Aura Sphere. Plus, he punishes turnip pulls badly if predicted, so you have to pay attention and be cautious.

I used to handle the matchup just like you, but in the last two months I totally overhauled my playstyle in an attempt to overcome Dedede and a few other matchups and now my playstyle is entirely based around camping with turnips and forcing approaches- and I'm finding now that I rely on turnips so much, while several of my worst matchups got WAAAAY easier, I'm having trouble with Lucario again, and I need to rebuild my aggressive game.


Which brings me to my biggest piece of advice. When you're in the spinning animation from getting hit by Lucario, you escape it with a jump and a float for a fraction of a second to catch your bearing, then stop. See:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyLAnUWfILk

0:55 - 1:05, I see you waste second jump and float twice.

I bring this up because this was my biggest mistake in this matchup too. If you waste your second jump, when Lucario is at high percentages, her airdodge isn't good enough to make it through his aura sphere, and you're screwed. You have to save the second jump to jump over his aura sphere and fsmash.

Also, you REALLY need to start momentum cancelling. Uair when launched away, you'll live a lot longer- you've already got good DI. Uairing as a habit instead of using your second jump will also help resolve your second-jump-wasting problem.

Otherwise, very solid and nothing else I can really point out

 

[Gea]

Uairing sometimes eats my float for no reason since I control stick aerials. My biggest issue is not going for the ledge while coming down.

 

[Praxis]

Do you B-stick?
If not, just make it a habit of flicking up on C-stick when being launched.

 

[Gea]

Uuuugh I hate C sticking aerials. We'll see.

Man I am a whiner. I appreciate the comments, by the way.
