Smash Fest and DP

I played with munkus and anomaly the other day, and i feel like i'm getting a lot better. I'm way more confident with my Captain Falcon. I've been practicing with him the most out of every character i think. i've been practicing my sheik as well.

I think I mentioned DP in my last post. I played him first round of reflex's tournament..any way he put vids up of our set.

he raped me of course, pretty badly.

i'm actually not too ashamed of how I played with roy. Yoshi's Story isn't one of my best roy stages, and i did have a few button slips, but i did alright. I think I need to use neutral-airs more. I noticed that in this match roy's shffld n-airs were effective at pre-empting aerial attacks.

i played pretty shitty with Falcon though. I just was making all the wrong choices. I kept going for knees when I should have just went for up-airs.

but I think the biggest lesson I learned from watching these videos is that I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO FUCKING D.I.

I have a bad habit of D.I. ing toward the opponent, which basically leads to endless combos, as you can see. I need to work on that. I can't work on it too tought with anomaly and munkus because I dont think they've picked up on it as well as higher level players, but we'll see.
