    Brawl+ request: Character Video tutorials

    A major request - can someone make a video with commentary (or a series) going through the brawl+ characters that they like to play as with their properties/differences/combos etc (for the most recent version of brawlplussery out?) Captain Falcon would be a good start, since most people seem...

    Pika Q&A/FAQ Thread: Ask a Quick Question, Get a Quick Answer!

    Samus... is a very gimped character. If you play right against her, you should have no problems. She's got a decent approach but no ability to deal with a shield AT ALL. Her grab is slow and all her good attacks have lag at the end. If you shield her attacks she has to mix it up with her grab...

    QAC Lag.

    if you do a thunderjolt, it usually cancels it out. Delay the thunderjolt a bit and you'll be fine. fair is the second best alternative, but I've had no problems spamming thunderjolt out of QAC.

    How do I stop being up-close?

    shield helps spacing. Its great to know the minimum dash distance you can dash shield. Otherwise, keep conscious in matches and practice landing your aerials behind the opponent. Spacing has a lot to do with your DI in the air, and this will get you used to it. Thunderjolt is a mid range tactic...

    RATE! rare footage: 4 ft rat spotted, fighting birds and robots

    Good pika. Only thing I would say is you whiff way too many moves in mid range, especially when you're trying to punish. This should improve naturally over time. Try getting a mid range counter into muscle memory (either dash grab or sh fair) in addition to your short range ones (grabs, dtilt)

    Pika Q&A/FAQ Thread: Ask a Quick Question, Get a Quick Answer!

    try playing a game with him where you only go for grabs. Especially go for defensive shield grabs. Alright, you can upsmash for the kill, but that's all. nothing else. I think you'll find it pleasantly doable.

    "The Triforce of Knowledge" Ganon's Match-Up Guide: Character Review, Kirby.

    yeah to be honest I think Pikachu will be getting early kills due to the thunder, which nullifies one of Ganon's strengths. So I'd put the matchup on 80:20 Pika.

    Zelda Matchup Thread // OUTDATED

    Anther, just add +30 to all of your matchups. This would be 80/20 for you, and 50/50 for the rest of us. Seriously though, Anther has a point. Pika has a great defensive/counter game. If the opponent is in the air, you can practically run under the opponent, shield, and have the upper hand in...

    Qac Help!!

    How worse? Are you being punished too much? Missing your QAC attacks? Messing up in game? I would start adding in QAC only as a positioning reset tool before going offensive with it. For offense, try to avoid direct QAC and do more the double QA - its more confusing to the opponent. Also, upair...

    OMG Anther is so GAY

    personally I think this match is much more GAY. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1uItchjMKw&feature=related Good job Anther.

    I'd like to contribute a few sections on how to vary Pikachu's approach. Now, Anther is the king of varied approaches, and all of this is stuff that he does regularly, so none of the credit really goes to me. Pikachu, IMO, has the best, most versatile approach in the game. One thing that...
