Well recently I have been playing a few really good people, but I seem to have a big problem with my friends Sheik. He destroys me sometimes even 3 stocking me. Once the day was over I asked him how in the world he could always counter every approach I threw at him. He said I was too predictable, and that he always knew what was coming next. At first I didn't know what he meant but after thinking about it during a match I realized maybe I was being too predictable in most of my approaches.

I was wondering as a Jiggs main, how do you guys constantly change your approach up keeping your opponent guessing? Because I know in order to get better I need to learn to be less predictable.

Also when I vs. my friends Fox or Falco, I U-Throw to Rest him and when he doesn't DI I Rest him. He says it's cheap, but I'm punishing him for his mistake. Should I always punish a bad DI at low % with a Rest kill? Or should I change it up even though my Success rate on failed DI U-Throw is like 95% against Fox and Falco?

do upthrow rest until he learns.

as for the sheik player, if you are doing a boring bair bair wop then he can easily slip a fair in between so dont just do the same thing over and over. combine fairs, short hops, nairs, and other attacks.

I tend to switch between comboing with aerials and trying rest combos to confuse my opponents.

About the uthrow to rest.....punish the hell out of him until he learns XD

well what i usually do isnt the usual I just do SH bair since you dont have any landing lag. So when you land you can immediatly jump again and bair. And for the person who mains fox what I usually do if its a noob is I wait close to edge and if I get the chance grab back throw. If Im right he will be forced to use his up+b to recover so then go down and hit him with a light fair to have him drop

CHEAP IN SSBM: No such thing, your friends a loser. When he doesn't DI cause he's a noob punish him everytime! If he wants to be good he will learn. Plus it's funny resting people. Lol you should want to do it, don't feel for your friend. :laugh:

For the Shiek problem. Idk, same here. My brother pick Shiek and he beats me all the time. Shiek > Jigglypuff.
