Omw

---

Lol dying at zero to Falcon Dive...twice

---

It's amazing how far apart Isabelle and Snake are as overall characters and zoners.

---

Lmao the fucking Inkling pick. How do you like the character?

---

Hard to use, especially since there's a slight input delay. I only noticed it when I started using Puff

---

Lol at dying to reflected splatter bomb

---

Fox is pretty sick. Think I'm gonna keep practicing him for a squad strike tourney in two weeks.

Your squid is pretty nice too.it stings a little losing to your character with your preferred costume lmao Your juggling game is pretty nice and so is the bomb usage. You do whiff grabs sometimes but I do that too all the time. You should play the character more. Also I love the fact that you actually edgeguard. Almost all the local Inkling players here let you recover for free since they don't do it. A while back I almost beat one such player when he would let Cloud recover for free, that's sad.

I was gonna try the ditto once even thought I hate it but it's cool. Very fun games all around, now I get to feel Inkling's bs

---

Wanted to see if it said anything after 200 KOs. It doesn't say anything, though.

Ggs. Inkling is a fun character. Seems like an effective game plan is mixing up spacing bairs and going for dash dance grabs, using jab and nair as get-off-me moves. Inkling is probably the best in the game at capitalizing on knockdowns with either dash grabs or jablock fsmash since they have the best dash dance, and lots of their kit knocks you down. I couldn't figure out how to use roller effectively so I mostly gave up on it, seems gimmicky anyways though it's a good mixup now and then. Backthrow kills unreasonably early at ledge imo.

You seemed to catch on toward the end by mixing it up, but the style of ledge trapping you were doing is countered by get up attack off ledge. It was effective at first because it took me awhile to realize this, but once I did it was probably the main reason I started winning. If you had just held shield by ledge I couldn't get up attack and I'd be limited to the other options. Not that you should always do that either as that has its own counter

---

Your right that's why I was timing my jumps but I screwed up the timing more than once. Also i don't know how I did that fair drag down into jablock downsmash. I'm terrible at jab locks lmao

Also backthrow was killing earlyish because Fox is one of the lightest characters in game. Usually you can kill midweights around 150%ish at the very tip of the ledge. Plus I don't know if the blast zone is different for smashville.

---

I didn't think of it at the time, but I should have tried using splat bomb to ledge trap by placing it near the ledge. My local Inkling does that, it's really good because it forces the opponent to get off the ledge as it explodes making it easier to react and punish.

---

Oh and roller is best used to catch landings or during tech chases. Usually if you see me roll away and you're not too far you can net yourself a bury. Also useful for recovery since you get an extra jump and horizontal distance.

---

Also some other observations I forgot to type. As I said Fox is pretty sick. He's a glass cannon type of character, he's only 3 units heavier than Puff IIRC and has a pretty exploitable and linear recovery. On the plus side he's a very explosive character able to rack up damage in one interaction.

Now playing Fox for the 2nd time went a lot smoother than the first time using him, that's when viewmaster got fed up with Puff. But I have some bad habits like dash attacking your shield too much. This cost me a lot of stocks because I ended up getting up smashed or back thrown a lot of times because I wasn't respecting the shield, being too predictable sometimes recovering off stage and I ate plenty of fsmashes at the ledge because of it, bad use of side b and the reflector, and generally not landing Fox's kill moves and that led to 170%+ situations. On the flip side I've noticed your parry game got a lot better since last time. 99% i parry it wasn't intentional lol

Anyhow I'm open all day today if anyone wants to play. I want to practice Fox some more with Inkling and a bit of Isabelle too.

---

I should be able to play some today too. Unless I go out with this chick lol

---
