If that is the case, you're getting too close.

You answered your own question in the post: You can't challenge lasers in the way I usually interpret the word 'challenge,' so your goal is to stop him from lasering in the first place. In your example, you crouched under them and (I assume) got close enough to make him nervous, so he stops...

You both are misinterpreting what I'm saying. "I don't go for grabs vs. spacies at 0%." DOES NOT MEAN "I choose to not press A when a spacie is in landlag/cooldown/whatever in front of my shield if they are at 0%." I was talking specifically about grabs as a strategy in a neutral-game...

I have found new tech to practice: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HghTnO5VXts

I'd say it depends on what exactly you mean by "so good." If you mean good relative to players in general, well, there's no one thing that makes a player one of the big 5 (or big 6). Even if I could tighten up and perfect everything I think is lacking in my game, I still probably wouldn't be at...

You can try holding R and C-up which will buffer jump on the first available frame, but honestly, I recommend just practicing your timing. EDIT: Now that I think about it, you could probably use R + C-up to help learn the timing for jump.

Even if you have to approach, you don't have to approach immediately and you can also back out partway through an approach. The point is, if you approach on their terms you're probably gonna get wrecked. It's still a baiting game. You need to have the patience and spacing to create an opening...

Mang0: Before I start all of this.. I got one thing to say..Once there was a great man named Gimpyfish who told me something..That Changed my life =). He said "u dont have to go to him if u dont want him". Which means is like when someone is camping u dont have to go to them all the time. JUST...

I just tested it again in slo-mo and I'll have to amend my statement. It works for dthrow but not the other throws for whatever reason. I used to buffer dthrow back when I played Falcon, so I just assumed it worked for the other throws as well. I guess my timing on C-up for the uthrow is just...

I said I don't go for grabs on spacies at 0%. I do go for grabs at other %'s and on non-spacies. Try reading what I say before responding, please. Not even gonna bother responding to the rest; you're clearly more interested in disagreement for the sake of disagreement. I use my strategy because...

I play a pretty ground-focused, grab-heavy Puff game. How good you are at getting grabs is a direct consequence of how good you are at generating grab opportunities. When you play Super Smash Bros.: Melee, you are playing against a player vs. player battle. You must always be wiling to put in...

...Because grabs can lead to Rest setups? Space animal slayer or platform techchase Rest spring to mind. The only times I've gotten space animal slayer on non-scrubs is with a grab into a buffered uthrow when they were expecting something else. If they're expecting a grab they'll just DI the...

I'm pretty sure they can shine out of it, possibly jump. Nobody's ever escaped it on me either, but it just doesn't seem like a true combo. I actually tend not to go for grabs when they're at 0% because I can't Rest off of them. I'd rather take the chance of getting a Rest setup later on than...

Grabs, my bro-lloon type Pokemon. Empty-land grab is amazing against shield and CC-spammers. You can mix that up with dair and Pound if they catch on and start dropping the CC early. (tbh, my favorite part of the stock is when they are between 10% and 40%, but I'm biased because I go for too...
