Being Aggressive without being reckless?

[GravyJigster]

So I play a very Baity Squirtle. I tend to weave in and out of my opponent's range, wait for a mistake, then punish with a SS, grab, combo starter, ect. It has worked pretty well against my buddies (We're decent, but far from good), but it does get criticized as being "Campy". I blow it off with general "No excuses" replies, but I kinda agree. If they're not having fun, I'm not having fun.

So I want to learn to be more aggressive. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to do it without being reckless. Any tips to aggressive play without just panicking and withdrawing into their grab?

Reckless would you going in, and not really thinking about it at all. Always be thinking and play smart and you will easily stray from reckless play in general.
