How do I get better at Smash?

t. Noob

Play against people who are better than you.
Play against more than a small selection of people.
Play against people IN PERSON. Playing online exclusively may help you get a bit better, but you'll reach a cap in what you can learn and execute much more quickly due to latency. If you only ever plan to play online then it doesn't really matter, though.
Actually figure out what your character can do, there are plenty of resources.
When you lose, actually think about why you lost and try to correct it. Look at footage/replays. Blaming the other person or character for playing like a bitch or how there was nothing you could do won't help you.

Play the most over powered character according to tier list.
Run away for 5 minutes if your percentage is ever higher than your opponents.
Run away for 5 minutes if your percentage is ever lower than your opponents because you can just win by tie default.

Oh and if you're talking about melee, pick Fox, falco, captain falcon, marth, sheik, jigglypuff, ice climbers, and peach. Then perform broken techs from the internet until you can't mess them up.
If you're taking about proj m, then follow the ultimate guide except learn project m shit.

The most important thing is just to play the game. A lot. I think it also benefits your skill at the game as a whole to play different characters. Picking just one or a few and trying to get good with those without ever playing others will only hurt you. The better you know the character you are fighting against, the better you can respond to their kit. Practicing combos is useful but a crutch if you rely on it too much.

Holy fuck was that a real crab? That elevates this incident to legendary status.

Main one character. Watch streams. Play online.

get trained by/advice from people who are WAY better than you
play people who are better than you, but ideally not so much better that it's like trying to break through a brick wall with your face

stop showering and wearing deodorant

Idc what anyone says, if he went to the gym and got /fit/ with a face like that he’d be extremely fuckable. Please sir i’m only a hole

To add to the other anons
1. Don't play too much against CPUs. Even at level 9 you won't learn much after a certain point, cause you're just trying to trick the AI behind it and develop certain behaviours that are bad against humans. Even some compfags rather play against level 3s, cause movement is the only thing you'll learn from fighting CPUs

2. Avoid playing online if you can. Even a little latency will make certain moves harder to punish and you might develop bad habits. If it noticably lags, then you're fucked anyway, since then you have to pay attention to your own character which you don't want after a certain point.

3. Learn your moves. Whatever character you use, learn the ins and outs of them. How much ending lag or landing lag does this or that move have? How much reach? How does it clash with others? Only a few moves are completely useless, learn all the others.

4. If you have a good feel for your own character, try to predict your opponent.

5. Ask others about your bad habits since you WILL have some.

What happened with crabs now?

>friend gets angrier and angrier when I beat him
>I use different characters
>he harps on things being too easy for me
>he hasn't changed his strategies for the one character he plays for months now, still plays the same way

>asking for advice on Yea Forums
>asking for advice on Yea Forums for a game that they don't even play

if you didn't start playing smash with Smash 64 you will never be good as the people who have been playing smash games their whole lives

Most people are like this, that's one of the reasons why fighters are such a niche genre at this point.

Dont have sex

he has got fucked. says so right here.

Is melee that expensive now? must be in high demand since it has never been topped. good thing I'm not an underage loser so I already have it from when I was a kid. feels good not having to desperately cope and delude myself into playing absolute garbage like an ultincel.

I'm so glad he can't play ultimate and I don't have to see him anymore.

modern melee fans are either netplay babies or stream monsters so they dont need a physical disc

i'm dead lol

But why a crab?

Just keep playing until you get so comfortable with a character that you start doing crazy shit just to fight the boredom of playing said character for a large amount of time.
