Hi, I'm just coming back from a regionals in which I was eliminated by a Fox. I'm very bad at this match-up overall, but I've been trying to think about it a lot during the match. Basically, the first round of this BO5 is like : fox approaches with a well-spaced Nair, can't trade back, grabs...

Lol, that's an awesome interpretation :D Abstract Paint art is definitely abstract. Thanks a lot, I thought for some reasons that an Up-B like this will have the priority over the needles or a dropzone fair.

Matchs-up are about players on the top of the metagame, in fact. I was wondering, about the match-up spacie vs Sheik, how can we edgeguard when the Fox/Falco is Up-B ing like that : (yeah awesome Paint skills...)

Armada also said he wasn't thinking actively while playing - on the Scar's "Lean Melee" thread if I remember well... I don't think that this is the main goal of your progression ; you should, on the contrary, integrate some game's mechanics to your gameplay.

Just some piece of advices : try to avoid as possible missing hits. I think that you are sometimes playing a smooth Sheik, who does only attack on opportunity, and sometimes, you just run and dash attack. The problem is that you only dash attack when the Fox is absolutely out of reach - when...

Didn't had the chance to play against Leffen - somewhat afraid of him :embarrass: - but yeah, I played against a lot of average Foxes, and Armada's one is very special in terms of edgeguarding. I also played a couple of freeplays against Doraki's Fox and he absolutely didn't edgeguard me that...

Is it better to look over our character or the opponent's character ? 4 years ago (xD) one of the best French player told me that almost always looking over my opponent's character is one of the keys to reach the pantheon... Even nowadays, I have some troubles looking at the opponent...

Thanks a lot :D I have a bad habit which is trying to Amsah Tech every kill move, it is awesome when it works but... Terrible when it fails. I wonder if there is a "move data" where we could see what moves are Double-Stick techable and at what kind of %... Again, thanks a lot, I will work on...

I have a general tip : you have to learn how to waveshield, it would really expand your number of answers to a certain problem. You roll way too much, and sometimes, a simple waveshield allows you to adjust your spacing without too much lag ! Good luck, man :)

I figurated later that I had a hard time countering Falco's pillar in general. Should I just roll away after the shine ? I also worked out on my powershields in friendlies, I just hope this will also be ~75% accurate in seriouslies.... I'll work on being calm & relax while playing, thanks a...

Hello everyone, I'm an average Sheik player from France that had the chance to be in Armada's pool during the ESA5. This is the only set that was recording, and I must admit that he pretty much dominated me, but I guess that I could get some advices out of this set. Sometimes, I feel like I...

Shoutouts : Fays => Even if you never remember my nickname, our freeplays were awesome, you have a great pair of spacies :). We played a lot and it was really fun, I just hope that you was not sandbagging >_< Android => I was the guy that asked if you were sad at friday's dusk. It was very...

Thanks for these answer, I'll improve a lot. I tested these AC fairs and Nair OOS throughout Bowser Training & Friendlies, and I have to say that... These are way harder than common Fox advanced technics o_o' I can chain AC fairs easily but I sometimes fail on the timing ; the movement goes...

I'll try this AC stuff tonight :) Do you still press L lightly to cover a AC Error, or was it when you began training at AC Fairs ? Yeah I use Y, but I think that the main difference between Y and X is the difference X/Y => B and not X/Y => A. It that case, it is more or less the same thing...

Now that you say that, I have some questions about being smooth ; 1) Sometimes, when I try to Shffl-fair, my shield comes on instead of a L-cancel ; that is because I auto-canceled my Fair ? Is there a way to be consistent at doing this ? A way to recognize when it'll be auto-canceled and when...
