Moonwalking is fun right? :p

Yoshi's really different than other characters, but i think the best thing you can do is get familiar with how he moves. It will open up more options to combo with.

Don't get so use to mw -> sh up+b, its very punishable. By the looks of the video, it looks like its pretty much automatic lol. maybe mix it up with some nairs or something.

in most cases its usually not such a good idea to use egg toss as an approach because of the ending animation lag.

Right now your yoshi pretty much looks like its just waiting for cc -> dtilt. There's more to it than dtilt! :p Especially against characters like pikachu and peach, I'm amazed he didn't punish your cc inclination by using more dsmashes.

But the main thing I'd concentrate on this time would be move faster and more fluidly. Take advantage of those platforms with more platform dashes -> (djc) nairs.

fudgin moon walk are teh pwnage but as the other dude said mw egges are not a good idea.try replacing them with bairs. when you on the ledge i find it better than just doing the attack get up, ledge hop wave dash on the platform and when you fall off the other side turn around djc nair. doing all this may sound long but its pretty fast if you are teh pwnage (bad spellin phor teh wen).it should hit them off and provide a gimp opurtunitty against people such as falcon, ganon,and some other people im to lazy to name. YOU MUST USE LOTS OF THE WAVE STUFF BACAUSE THEY ARE TRICKY AND CAN PROVIDEQUICK ARIAL HITS WITCH CAN LEAD IN TO COMBOS EASALY. oh and against samus ( not relating to you vid) when thery are bomb recovering try throwing eggs ate the bomb and when they die you can laugh like lolzor omg roflcopter pwnage

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER............BACON TASTES VERY GOOD

Epic moon walk man. Like they said though be careful with your egg toss timing. N air or back air would be a much safer approach. And another thing u should do is maybe switch up what u do close range wise. I saw some time how u would go to a down tilt. Sure down tilt is a good move. But you should use it to effectively punish, space, and kill your opponent. You didn't really take advantage of pikachu after you got him off of you. You a very creative yoshi player. and your yoshi has good speed. Overall i'd say just pay more attention in your spacing, and what you do with your combos.

Yeah so I wen't to North California and played some smash with people I didn't know and my BFF at his Univ./school.

Also I'm very tired from my trip but this guy wants to play with me right away and I just want to so I can work on my G&W COMBO video! G&W combos are hard to make so I need all the time I can.

I will read the advice later; thank you very much! PS:One more will be uploaded soon to critique; thanks again.
