Idk in my opinion O didnt like his jr.Seagull pops out our boy (game 2 & 3) vs Boss' Wario
https://youtu.be/kIlvLk5iN4A
What I did was generally safe and bait heavy.Idk in my opinion O didnt like his jr.
I think he did way too many unsafe options
What would you do if someone Bairs in place over and over again? I've been doing this same strategy for 7 years and have yet to find someone with a reliable answer...Boss had no idea what he was doing and seagull just used bair a million times while boss kept walking into it.
that first vid, at 7:07, Should be in the smash dictionary when you look up spacing. verry nice.Video dump!!!!! This is from a tournament I won recently, beating the rank 16 Olimar and rank 9 sheik of SoCal. Sadly Grand Finals was not recorded due to unlucky file corruption.
here's the challonge for that one: http://challonge.com/S4P7
1. Me vs Pitbull (Lucario, winners finals)

I only watched the first round of this set, but here's my critique of things you should work on/be more aware of for the future:Video dump!!!!!

2. Me vs LeePuff (extremely good Yoshi, formerly ranked SoCal)

Lmfao this might be the worst advice you could possibly give. Vicegrip's biggest strength is his mechakoopa control; it's the reason he's the only bjr to consistently beat good Olimar players while everyone else changes to a different character for the mu.This is especially bad advice considering the set you watched was vs a Yoshi and Yoshi's DA is great for beating out cannonball without even trying + the way his body moves the placement of the mk while in hand means the cannonball will often not even hit it during a DA.You threw the mech way too much and did not give it time to walk around and instill pressure. I've noticed that if people have a tendency to pick up the mech with jab or DA then you have the opportunity to shoot a mid/long range cannonball, which will go through the mech when thrown.
I only watched the first round of this set, but here's my critique of things you should work on/be more aware of for the future:
- You moved in way too much while releasing mechkoopa. You put yourself in too close a proximity to be punished. You should work on using grounded b reversals while retreating to have the safest way to get mechs out besides on platforms.
- You threw the mech way too much and did not give it time to walk around and instill pressure. I've noticed that if people have a tendency to pick up the mech with jab or DA then you have the opportunity to shoot a mid/long range cannonball, which will go through the mech when thrown.
- You jumped above TOO much. He's a character that relies on getting you airborne. You do not want to be above him and doesn't have the best options coming down. The reward (Nair/Dair) is not worth the risk aka getting Uair'd repeatedly/juggled.
Sidenote: I never thought of spinning out when an opponent is chasing me from the side. Will add that to my arsenal for my .

Lots of your advice is predicated on the fact that your region has no experience in the matchup.
you did good considering you had to fight Nakat, who got all the way to Grand finals and 3-0'd nairo in winners finals.Ok, so I swear im not bad guys, Nakat was the only one who beat me in my pool, but would appreciate critique:

Also, I know I chose a few unsafe approaches and I tend to get way too agro, I feel as if my nuetral was not too bad, but nakat just had great evasion and MU ex, but please, let me know what you think I should work on
Why tf would yo go for fsmash if you know they aren't going to drop shield?At 6:45 you could also z-drop mechakoopa into grab instead of going for f-smash if they wont drop shield.
Lol if only his f-smash broke shields like in the trailer.Why tf would yo go for fsmash if you know they aren't going to drop shield?
EDIT: Lmao totally misread this, carry on my wayward son.
Its just some things ive been testing, i meant to down smash because it might break shieldsLol if only his f-smash broke shields like in the trailer.
Dude! I love your junior! we needed a good lemmy main. Go to tournament and get results! cuz you are doing greatI've been maining Bowser Jr. (Lemmy to be specific) for quite some time, attending some tournaments on and off..
I'm also working on a longer video for the kart combos and instant explosion tricks.. Need some more clips for those first though. Also shoutouts to AcestarThe3rd getting me into bowser jr.
Eh, quite a few people do it. lol that one is pretty situational but if they roll away you can try fast falling and getting them with the hammer. It's also a surprising amount of shield damage so definitely can catch people off guardLol why is everyone sitting in shield after getting hit with the explosion?
I think it would help to be more defensive against TL and have him come to you, but that's the only kind of critique I can think ofIt's been quite some time since I went here, so a little update.
Last week there was in Paris an Invitational tourney where 16 of the best french players were invited. I thankfully managed to get out of pools and get a 7th place in bracket.
VS Denti / Trax (Falcon / Luigi)
VS Elexiao (Pac-Man / Greninja)
VS Yass (Fox)
VS Mana (Toon Link)
I'm prob going to study these mechakoopa edgeguards Vicegrip does, might be more useful and less suicide-intending than fastfall bair stage spikes. Still, hope you enjoy the watch!
ViceGrip if I were to post a few matches of my Ludwig, would you mind doing a write-up for me? I've pretty much hit a dead end when it comes to my gameplay and I don't know what I need to do to improve.
I also have another problem. What do I friggin do against ZSS? I've had two of my friends who never ever play ZSS 3 stock me because of u-air -> up-b strings. I was originally gunna record that match but it's just a **** show so I didn't bother
It really depends on the character and where you are. As long as I'm not on the outsides of the stage I really don't mind using up b. Only quick moves will beat the hammer and you can just move behind your explosion to prevent them chasing.Yeah that's a super good way to get punished vs someone competent though.
I mean I guess? But again, it relies of your opponent to be really bad and have no experience in the mu. Every character is fast enough to shield the up b and then chase your landing since the endlag once you hit the ground is so immense. And the hammer isn't actually that quick. It comes out on frame 8, meaning almost every character has something that can challenge it.It really depends on the character and where you are.
