The Four Fundamentals of Melee

[@thingamagiga2]

The four fundamentals of melee: 1 up smash. 2 Knowing how to combo. 3 knowing where you're at. 4 knowing who falco is.

[@gentlekef8653]

O MY GODDDDD WOMBO COMBOOOOOOO

[@thenoseguy]

You forgot the secret fifth fundamental: happy feet

[@raidsrc]

This is probably the single most helpful video on learning Melee out there

[@beauhendershot7911]

This is great, but look up “Lloyd’s guide to melee”, if you haven’t already seen it. It’s got a lot of really amazing material in it

[@whatarewaves]

Absolutely, after years of playing I’m so happy I found this gem.

[@SFAT17]

Blood, sweat and tears went into this video. Hope you guys enjoy! #FreeMelee

[@Zemmu]

As a Marth main: 1. Pick the Controller 2. Use the "Z" button 3. Then repeat 4. Say ggs

[@6secondsremain]

Also maybe down tilt

[@tin0809]

"Wavedash out-of-shield is an option available to ALL characters"... Poor Yoshi... not even a real character :'(

[@deejay4139]

16:55 except yoshi. Yoshi can't wd oos. Awesome video btw. So well put together.

[@happyk7512]

This just confirms my long-held belief that Yoshi isn’t a real character.

#FreeMelee What an insanely good vid, shoutouts to the 5 days of melee

[@normalrachael]

loved the inclusion of the buffered jump out of shield land cancels at 17:17 that’s that good shit 😌 #freemelee

[@Nagstersept109868]

this is a quality, concise, and understandable video. All the things an educational video should be. Bonus points for the good editing that follows the narration well and keeps the visuals from getting boring.

[@bullydungeon9631]

This might be the best intro to melee video ive ever seen

[@tannernowicki9798]

This video is so good, absolutely must watch material for newer players

[@Mauisnake]

Lot of concepts in this that can be applied to other competitive games. Great video, well written.

[@teamhersheychocolate]

[@n0lain]

16:54 except yoshi :P seriously though, very nice video, and super informative

[@Fynmorphover]

15:12 for slide off and the roll tech, isnt the Control Stick in the opposite direction it should be?

[@SuperSiegeBros]

0:20 is it just me or does it sound like the 4th fundamental is Ethan

[@ChrisDiazVideos]

Great vid supporting 5 days of Melee #FreeMelee

[@ANewPseudonym]

Great vid, good for all skill levels

[@ChiefKamaji]

Great fundamentals video. GJ guys.

[@linkluver_izn]

take my like and comment for the interactions

[@chilidili]

awesome, awesome vid. always appreciate the more abstract, all encompassing views.

[@llachlann]

Really good vid but some parts are kinda hard to watch at 30fps

[@Rael0505]

Great video! Can someone please explain to me what is happening at 17:17 when they're holding up while in shield? That buffers jump, right? I don't understand how they're using it though - I don't see a jump.

[@SuperSiegeBros]

Sure! Getting hit by shine or dair while in an aerial state will reduce the hit stun to that of landing lag (as long as it doesn't cause knockdown), allowing you to act out of it faster than if you were hit grounded.

[@austinarcher90]

hey SFAT, what about all of the neutral interactions that take place before the announcer says, “GO!” ??

[@vj7248]

The rock paper scissors match done prior to "GO!" to decide port priority of course ✌️✊

#LongLiveMelee

[@peter42466]

I would argue edge guarding is just a part of punish

[@keb7066]

Kindve. Imo punish = your opponent is in hitstun and everything you’re doing is )(mostly) true, and advantage = your opponent is out of hit stun but is in a severely disadvantageous position. You’re opponent can play mixups in punish bc this is melee but they’re significantly more limited than the mixups they can do in disadvantage state. I’d say edge guarding is more of an advantage state than punish personally

[@peter42466]

@@keb7066 I guess but punish and advantage are used kinda interchangeably and them their are loads of moments which don’t fall into these three categories
