You had me at new venue. Now I don't have any reason to have to go to MTG Deals! :D Definitely going to this one with a set-up.

Thanks for the advice Axe! I have a lot of problems with the mental part of the game, despite having played for so long. When I'm playing against a good/ranked player, and get them down to the last stock or near there, I start thinking I could actually win and I get really nervous. I'm going to...

Always look forward to watching you play Axe! Your play at EVO was mind-blowing, I was so hoping you would beat Armada, you did so well though! Is there anything outside of Smash you do to either physically or mentally prepare yourself for a tournament?

I haven't read a lot of this, but I personally have no problems with the act of coaching at all. The problem, in my opinion, comes from fairness and equality. If only a few people in a tournament have dedicated coaches, then it creates an unfair environment where those players have an advantage...

Both the bair and dair ground hitboxes have saved me from shieldgrabs a few times. :D If they try to shield grab the first chance they get, you'll disrupt their rhythm. Also, it seems like more people might start picking up Pika because of Axe, I hope I don't have to do too many Pika dittos :/

PalmerFan: My main practice partner is Falco, and I know what you mean about the dairs. It seems like every time I go to the ledge, he runs off stage, DJ's back and sends out a dair and it magically hits me. -_- I realized this was because my quick attack rhythm was too predictable, and I would...

That uair -> thunder kill on Hungrybox...that's the dream man. Axe played so amazingly well this tournament. I hope we get to see a lot more of him this summer! He's killing it!

N64: Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely try to be more patient, it's something I've always struggled with. I think I need to go to my next tournament and try to be patient in every situation and actually think about my options more. After watching the video again, I do see a lot of random...

So I played at a tournament this past Saturday, was wondering if anybody could offer any advice on my play (my match starts at around 01:43:00) http://www.twitch.tv/clashtournaments/b/536449118 I was pretty nervous playing on stream against such a good player, so some of the quick attack SD's...

I think Fox is a great partner for Pikachu. You can save him easily with uair (just be sure not to spike him by accident, lol!) and he can save you from a lot of situations with his shine. Your forward uair hitbox also easily gets him out of trouble, especially chaingrabs or tech chases. I'm not...

I saw the list for that tournament, Axe, PikaChad, AND Anther? Oh man I wish I could've gone. I can't wait for the videos!! And yes I agree, I hate DL64 and almost always get rid of it. Oh my usmash didn't kill you where it would have on literally any other stage? Well I'll just jump and use...

Does anybody have a gif or information on Pikachu's dair hitbox when he hits the ground? Does it stay out even if the move is edge-cancelled?

That really helps a lot! I had no idea rotating the analog stick did anything, I was just mashing the face buttons as fast as I could. Edit with another question: At what percents/DI is uthrow to usmash guaranteed and on what chars? I'm referring specifically to characters other than...

Specifically, how do you get out of grabs so quickly? Chad, I was just watching your grandfinals and noticed you escaped sheik's grab at 50% really fast, when I have trouble escaping grabs that fast at 0%. What am I doing wrong?

Good stuff Chad! I really like how well you utilize wavelands, your style is very cool. I really thought you had him >_<
