  3. Aerodrome's Guidance - Smash Tutoring from Beginner to Intermediate Levels!
I've been thinking about doing something like this for a while. Basically what I'm offering is a way for newcomers to the competitive scene to learn the ins and outs of their respective characters and Smash 4 in general.

For the moment I'm focusing mostly on newer players, to help them with:

- Basic to intermediate gameplay advice
- Basic character specific advice

Although this is directed at newer players, more experienced players are more than welcome to play with me, although I think there will be less of a chance that I will be either willing or even able to point out holes in your gameplay.

So basically how this works is that you tell me who you main, and we organize a time to play some Wi-Fi. If you play a character I can play effectively, then I will play that character against you if you want, to which I highly recommend that you save replays and watch how I play the character and pick tips up from that.

After the Wi-Fi session, I'll let you know of the biggest flaws in your gameplay that I saw for you to work on. Fixing these will improve your gameplay immensely.

So, let's go!

There has been improvement, notably that you actually shield now and also that you don't just run at me throwing hitboxes out.

Oops, I wasn't meant to post that just yet
Anyway I can't think of anything specific but your on stage game is fine, but your ledge game is 90% get up and get up attack so it's like, imma just sit here and jab.

It's alright, I'm joining.
That's probably a full second of input delay there.
Alright buddy, 3 MAJOR flaws in your gameplay that need to be addressed, and they are as follows:

1) Ledge Options - Oh my. Your ledge options are very lacking, you only choose 1 or 2 options ever and this is very punishable. I think I would have gotten most of my damage simply by getting you offstage and making sure you never came back. I read your ledge options about as easily as one would read a third grade text book, so please work on this, I cannot stress this enough.

2) Spacing & Landing in Front of me - Another big one, you're playing Shulk, one of the furthest reaching characters in the game but you kept getting shield grabbed because you simply did nothing but land directly in front of me. In my Pac-Man game, I grabbed and forward threw you 5 times in a row because you repeatedly landed in front of me. By learning to space properly, this habit should go away by itself.

3) Rolling - It's really not a good option, you keep rolling behind or into my attacks. Once you even managed to roll into a b-reversed Warlock Punch! This isn't as bad as the two problems above, but one I recommend you fix sooner than later.

Other small things:

Don't overshoot the ledge with up B. See: Peanut Popgun kill
Don't move in a way that's predictable or people will just out prioritize you
Try to mix up your edgeguards, fsmash isn't your only move
Don't fish for fsmash kills so hard

I won't be here at 6:30.

Now that I think about it, I'm probably going to struggle to play all these people in one day.

Does tomorrow post 9:30pm suit?
