As someone getting back into Melee, I feel most comfortable with Mario since that is who I played as a kid. However, I can't really get anything going until later percents because my approach options aren't stunning the opponent long enough or putting them in a position to get comboed. I'm getting grabbed even after successful hits. I have basically resorted to grabs at low percents, and against human opponents they usually catch on pretty quick. I know Mario as issues approaching, but there has to be some way to mix it up with something other than grabs. I'm not a huge fan of aerials either because for some reason I never land behind the opponent's shield like I intend to, although that's just a technical flaw on my end. Please drop all the knowledge you know!
