I hate peach. Mostly because I hate being in yoshi's shield (EVER!), other than that I play against her like I do kirby (or anyone with a better airgame than yoshi) alot of eggs, pivot grabs, and Bair mostly. Save my smashes for kills and Uair/egg throw juggle as often as I can since she's so floaty. Truly one of my player weakness matchups since I generally like being agressive. I'd think peach advantage just for that.

sorry i meant on the yoshi boards lately.... =\ haven't even thought of, nor looked at, the fox match-up since there isn't a single good space animal in kentucky.... i wish i had a good falco...... *sigh* i still love yoshi more though, but falco will always be next...
Come to GA, and you won't like Falcos anymore.

I think I'm the only one that finds wolf's laser more annoying than falco's
Pretty much.

I can go entire matches without failing to powershield a single wolf laser. That thing is so slow. Yoshi's Eggs are way better.

Falco's laser on the other hand makes me cry myself to sleep.

Do we have anything else to discuss on this? Have any major Yoshi's fought any notable Peach's in tournament ever?

I figured Egg lay ***** this matchup. 7% free damage whenever peach floats. I haven't really played any peaches in a while, but when i did. I used egg lay a lot and it helped make my bair approach much better. SO EGG LAY GUYS. I used to be a hater, but now i love this move (ESP in 2v2 :p)

I beat bone, who is prolly 2nd best peach on WC, in tournament(iunno how you, bone, and sky match up, but i think bone is a little better than sky from playin them), praxis, like 3 weeks ago.
Im 2-1 with him.

Egg lay is really bad in this matchup imo. Great move but not here.

Peach's Fair outranges Egg lay. Since she isn't mainly grounded, when we won't have to use egg lay unless you just wanna place her higher up in the air, where you'll be right under her Dair.

yeah I'm ignoring the generic wannabe match-up thread and necro'ing this one, whatchugon' do about it

played snakeee's peach today in friendlies with relatively even results minus some terrible mistakes on my part. From this and other experience I'm convinced that it's even, no worse.

ps snakeee has experience against pride, thus her ****** me with zamus, so there's no unknown match-up johns here.

How do you get ***** by ZSS? Someone around here told me that they tell people to go ZSS to **** Yoshi. I don't get it, it's an even MU and I'm good at it now. I love it. :D

Anyways, from my experience with Dark Peach (inb4Meta) I'd say it's even. Though I bet Meta has some theories that say Yoshi gets *****.

Just play stupidly safe and defensive. Not necessarily throwing eggs, just waiting. Peach can punish eggs, after all.

Looking at the old posts in this thread makes me laugh uncontrollably. Bone footage was nice, great player but didn't know the matchup :(

I'll do a tl;dr version and go into detail if anyone wants

-Peach's camp game beats out yoshi's camp game and actually punishes all his approaches/camp game/grab game unless he's able to consistently grab turnips in the air

-Peach's Fair and Dair both>Yoshi, she can space them correctly in med-close range where he can't punish (Fair is better but harder to learn the spacing for)

-Yoshi cannot recovery from below safely against peach, below leads to a stage spike without an airdodge, with an airdodge means yoshi might get up smashed/stage spiked if peach grabs the ledge

-Egg Lay is super **** if peach isn't holding a turnip, she can beat you out with Fair but spacing the Fair is a lot harder than for you to just DJC in with an egg lay

-Peach can actually beat your Uair with Bair if spaced correctly

-Peach can Up smash OoS yoshi's up smash, so don't get greedy lol

I think if played correctly the matchup is 65:35

Making it that is hard though, peach has to play the MU really well to get it to that kind of extreme, and the less experience against yoshi you have/the more mistakes you make, the more even the MU becomes.

It's even on wifi if anyone is curious, me and stocky went even on wifi and then I ***** him at AG <3 (we were even at first until I learned the matchup, then I couldn't stop 2 stocking him)

Unfortunately our footage is when we were both exhausted, so we both played pretty terribly XD
