It'll depend on the person you're playing, but typically speaking I wouldn't comment much, if at all during a match, and I certainly wouldn't shout. When you're in a match, you need every bit of concentration you can get, and for some people their opponent trying to talk to them (ESPECIALLY...

All of the blast zones are equal. The only difference is if they have walls on them or not. Well, that, and lighting issues make Greninja's shadow rush more powerful than it normally is on some stages such as pictochat and pac maze, but that's just a character specific thing.

Eh, Little Mac is, AT PRESENT METAGAME KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL LEVELS, not fantastic as a character. Mostly because any stage with any sort of platform or gaps leaves him instantly at a huge disadvantage. Mac's air game is just that bad frankly. He also has an incredibly disappointing grab range...

Smooth lander can't even go that low, as far as I'm aware. All the ones I've seen, even the brawn badge ones (which have the lowest possible attack boost) are all well above 10 (and granted, I've only seen like 3, because they're so goddamn rare) - which tells me that Smooth Lander does not...

Captain falcon is really, really satisfying to use atm. Can't say I have much experience with melee or its supercaptain, but Smash 4's falcon has been doing serious work for me. Falcon Punch also can't kill until 50-70%, and that's O.K. It's a lot faster than it was in brawl, with a just low...

Shulk's counter lasts for freaking ever too, such a pain. I've found the best way is to just predict when the counter is coming, and approach accordingly, instead of trying to reflexively avoid it. Pause with your approaches, and attack only after he starts to lower his arms again - that's when...

Meh, who cares? They aren't paying you to fight them, it's all for fun and for the sake of having a good time anyways, so long as you aren't hacking or anything just do what you find fun. If 'this' is considered uncouth, god forbid anyone ever uses taunts, or kirbycides, etc.

Rolling a lot, in and of itself, is not bad. Being predictable with your rolls is bad. Rolling for the sake of rolling is bad. Mix it up, keep your opponent guessing, if they start to consistently punish you for rolling in a certain way, change how you approach your rolls. The only bad...

"Special MasterCore Mii" That's just a mii with a werid face in the samurai helmet + royal (or w/e its called it makes you look like dracula) brawler outfit who got named MasterCore. This is legitimately the dumbest 'rumor' I have heard in decades, and I freaking remember the sonic in melee one.

Yeah, the captain has an incredibly good mixup game on the ground. One thing I've liked to do is just throw in random jabs or backdashes in my approaches - they land a surprising amount of the time, and help to keep your opponent guessing. Just remember, don't go full aggro. Full aggro = they...

Let me show you my moves.

your friend has forgotten the fundamental rule of smash

Pick pink captain falcon skin. Spam "SHOW ME YAH MOVES" as many times in your fights as humanly possible. Smash him. Smash him over and over until he gets it. Until all he can think of is the magnificence that is captain falcon. Until every waking moment leaves nothing but an obsession for...

Somewhat hilariously, it's actually in your best interest to stay within certain ranges even when using equipment. Preliminary testing (and number crunching besides) has shown that equipment suffers from diminishing returns (and to the point where it's actually a good idea to have +everything...

Patience is the key to this matchup, from what limited bowser experience I have. While his flame breath sucks, and his attacks hurt, he's slow(ish), big, fat, and bulky. Abuse that, force him to come to you, break holes in his approaches, smash the hell out of him with your lightning fast...
