[@iamram5446]

For those wondering on stream Leo said he is going to be playing a lot more Marth because his set against void inspired him since as we all know sheik isn’t exactly the best but seeing how void was still playing her just cause that’s his character Leo felt inspired to play Marth again

[@vertsang5424]

that's pretty cool:)

[@winschlati8033]

That's exactly what I thought. Void's an amazing player who doesn't care much about the tier lists but rather the match ups to his character. I'm glad Sheik and Marth are getting recognition from amazing players.

[@farouklopez7242]

Is there a clip of that ?

[@stilactic4667]

Sammy LA this has actually inspired me to start playing Corrin again

[@StealthFoxx_]

I know Lucina is better overall, but I feel like Marth has much more potential than people give him credit for. He can definitely be stressful to play when you aren't landing at least 50% of your tippers or slightly mess up your spacing, but he's not bad by any means. While Lucina has more consistent results and doesn't have to worry about the same things you do when playing Marth, he's definitely hype to watch when he's played effectively

[@CastafioreOnYoutube]

7:32 turn around cancel f-tlit* Leo uses that so much, seems like a really good option the way he's weaving them in

[@emanonomoi]

Mark Chee It's a very good option,as it's essentially a better dash attack,and ftilt kills well when it tippers. The extra distance the slide gives from cancelling the pivot in addition to Marths already long range is a great combo.

[@nani_tf]

Mark Chee what’s the input to do this cancel?

[@DeadJuicebox]

@@nani_tf Dash, Backward + C-stick forward (with tilt stick)

[@ZWarrior89]

I personally don't think Marth should use a dash attack ever. Especially if you can cancel the dash into a tilt.

[@CameramanI88]

This also applies to Lucina. Dash attack is too laggy while f-tilt does the same damage. Dash attack does do ,ore knock back though, so in some situations where you can get a guaranteed hit in, dash attack is better

[@laundry1799]

Just wait for everyone start to claim Marth is top 10 all of a sudden.

Stop this, people just don't want to believe in Marth but we all know he has potential

[@cooldes4593]

Mk leo and MewTwoKing already have a video together where they explain why marth is better than lucina. They explained that he has better damage output and combo potential as long as you can space using tippers to finish and sour spots to start combos.

[@cooldes4593]

Lucina is just the safer pick because you dont have to be as good at spacing

[@Thebrokenrobot273]

[@agentglowstick8704]

Brenda Goncalves Do you have a link to where Falchion makes Marth invincible? Regardless, even if Marth can’t be damaged, he can still be transmutated into a slime, sealed in an alternate universe, or wished out of existence. Link is invincible too. With Nayru’s Love, Link is unable to take damage as long as he has magic, and with chateau Romani or the Triforce of Power, Link has an unlimited magic meter, so he remains invincible forever. There’s also magic armor which replaces all damage taken with rupee loss.

Man. I’ve been playing Marty since Melee. Always knew that he’s the best.

[@IAm-zo1bo]

Lol no

[@moocowp4970]

Since the commentators asked: For Link's bomb recovery there are multiple ways to do it: -simple z drop: this will drop it in the direction link is facing which will therefore send him in the opposite direction when blown up (so, if you are facing the stage like Link91 was, you have to drop it then move forward THEN detonate it or you will get sent to the blastzone) -double jump then z drop: ( I think this is what Link91 did): when double jumping with the bomb there is a period when the bomb is on the opposite side to the direction link is facing. So if you detonate it during that period you get sent towards the stage, but I think Link91 just stuffed up the timing. There are two other less used methods too: -throwing the bomb down, quick falling while moving slightly forward and then detonating. Harder to do but can be used as a mixup if your opponent is pressuring you off stage -1 framing the zdrop: when pulling out the bomb there is a single frame at the start of the animation which will allow you to drop it while it's still above links head (rather than held out in front of him), if you buffer the z drop you won't get this frame so it's incredibly tight timing and incredibly hard to pull off. The advantage being that you can detonate the bomb quicker and don't need to move forward nearly as much, so it can be used when the other methods would take too long and cause you to fall to death (or can be used to surprise an opponent pressuring you, but again, it's super hard to pull off).

When I got Smash Ultimate back when it released, Marth was the character I wanted to put time in because he was just so enjoyable and satisfying. But i could find little success with him. Seeing this makes me so happy to be honest. It just is a beautiful sight and feeling

[@DeadpoolX9]

You just have to throw out less moves but make your moves count. Stay zoning on the ground. Marth has strong aerials but high landing lag so stay on the ground throwing out ftilts to bait out their air options then punish accordingly. Also learn to perfectly space out dancing blade ffdf for early kill confirms. As you can see from this match marth is good at racking up damage but really struggles to end stocks reliably. Hence why MK had to fall back on his best move which is ftilt.

[@xSilverWolfx15]

@@DeadpoolX9 Thank you for the advice, seriously. I am going to be trying to put that into practice and learn to be more tactical with what moves I make.

[@DeadpoolX9]

@@xSilverWolfx15 truly the most tense moment is when the opponent is at a high percentage because then you're basically playing a game of figuring out which tipper move to use. Dont quote me on this but I think they nerfed the shit out of fair and fsmash tipper range but ftilt might actually have the largest tipper hitbox. SideB is just fast so that's why I recommended using it. Like I said before I think they nerfed his aerials or just fair So I just tend to throw our nairs as a keepout/approach tool then use ftilt on the ground. I've gotten pretty good at nairs so sometimes it's a kill confirm but like I said. You cant really kill with marth anymore. Also sideB gives you enough wiggle room to time a tipper. I also think they nerfed dair's spike range so you're better off countering active hitboxes or just ledge guarding. So basically you cant be as aggressive anymore. Dont be afraid to camp out and wait for them to approach you. I know how you feel because I was frustrated too. I got over it once I decided to just play keepaway on the ground. Uptilt is a really great anti air option as well. Yeah so tldr my advice is stay grounded and let them come to you.

@@SouL-RaZor Actually I already found out. It was actually a pivot cancel F-tilt. It looks like a dash attack because an F-tilt looks like one, and with the pivot cancel, you still have a forward momentum.
