Nice. =)
I'm just gonna critique the matches even though you didn't really ask. >_>
But I'd guess youd want advise. Everyone does. =P
Sorta keep in mind you should use Zair while falling. So instead of using it while your going up, use it while going down.
It'll be much more effective. =P
Try doing Zair -> grab Then you don't have to make those risky grabs.
A little less Dair would be good.

Other then that good work. ^_^

I've gotten Zair-> Grab down for the most part, I just did extremely bad in at it in this match =p
and thanks for the advice ^^

My advices ...
I think you had better use Utilt istead of F tilt, it's hte best way to "combote" your adversary ...
Then I think every TL user should Atilt Atilt + every thing esle (AND NOT atilt AGAIN !), it's very good, when you master it, to Atilt atilt Fsmash , or utilt , or usmash ... best way to kill/combote
And against olimar, try to more Zair and boomrang !

I love yours songs ... I've posted 6 vid with music and we have the same zic for some of them xD

Good vids

EDIT/ Try to work on your SHDA

Wouuh ? xD
Not D tilt, neutral tilt
I mean, some time when you can, after a shield for exemple, try to A combo but stop him after the second A ... wait, do Fsmash or utilt or usmash very useful.


Little french parenthesis : Oui Sasuke je sais que tu aimes quand je parle comme cela mais n'oublie pas que je n'apprend l'anglais que depuis 4 ans (j'en ai 16 ...)
Et aussi va voir mes vidéos, la First Vidéo c'est le mieux ... je vous jure ~~

Updated with a match vs A Marth user, it was best 2/3 but I forgot to record the other 2 :p
Long story short, I 2 stocked his peach, his Marth 2 stocked me, then this was the last match.

I only watched that last vid. Bad zairs.. I suggest not worrying about that and focusing on something else, then coming back to it. Since its better to practice one thing at a time. I also saw a bit of smash attacks used when your opponent had low percents. Try to save those, or at least one for when you need the kill. I suggest either the up smash your forward smash. I save my upsmash, and I try to save my forward smash when I can.

Lol. If i recall, there were 3 missed grabs total, and the other 2 were punished, pretty easy to spot when you watch the entire vid. :)

Also, I love the Toon Link boards.

Except not really.

Good job owning MK though.

The second vid is messed up...

But on the frist...
Lets tell you what you shouldn't do.
SHDA why?
Because MK can punish the face off of you.
Dont try and stand still spamming MK.
A good MK will zone in and nado you or punish you some other way.
Most MKs abuse TL's weak spot olimars upb direction in front of him.
So try not to stay still.
Dont spam zair like that lolz.
Bair chains MK good damage racker as always.
Try to stay grounded as much as possible unless hes behind you or you are useing nair.
TL's air game dont got nothing on MK...
ummm...Use projectiles while moving.
Run away and bomb him.
If he catches it so...just hit him with another or run some more.
But this is just some common so try to apply it.

Dont always SHAD to Z-air, it become very predictable in tournament play
needs moar bombs, you did very well, but there is always room for improvement
but my biggest issue is the SHAD to Z-air, I knew when you were gonna Z-air. just try to become unreadable

Yeah, the link for the second vid is messed up.

Pretty good job overall, just a few things:
*You don't always have to air dodge before you zair, it became pretty predictable
*Whenever you had a bomb in the air, you always threw it down. I seriously don't remember you throwing it in any other direction (you actually hit yourself quite a few times). remember you have your z-drop as well
*He was air dodging your uairs pretty easily. maybe try to draw out the airdodge and hit him as he's leaving the air dodge animation
*Whenever he got into killing percentage you went usmash crazy. You got a 95% kill in the first match i believe, but on the last stock second match you seriously used like 20 of them. remember utilt is a pretty reliable kill move (it kills only about 10 or so % higher than usmash)
*speaking of utilts, you could probably use a little more. this is something i don't do very well myself
*finally, I thought your SHDA usage was alright. you probably used it a little more than I'd recommend but I don't see a problem with it. he was tornadoing so much in the first match that I probably would have switched to more bombs

And you arrow canceled most of your aerials, I thought that was pretty nice

Toon link mains are like family
anything to help you out :)

Dont Up-smash so much
mix it up with your bombs, what I like to do sometimes is to throw my bomb up, then catch it and Zdrop it or throw it at my opponent, makes for some good mind games
just what i said for the first one, don't always SHAD to Z-air
