    Fox's Perfect Pivot

    It's because the game is still new. As the years go on, more and more people will start to implement Perfect Pivot into their playstyle.

    Fox patch 1.10 changes

    This right here. They have crippled the play style of Fox for what reason, exactly? Somebody tell me, because it doesn't make sense. Smash Bros. Wii U has been out for 11 months; until now he'd remained mostly untouched - why the big change? He wasn't broken or imbalanced; he was a very...

    What to do in the neutral game with Fox?

    Ok, I agree with what you're saying. If you're right on top of them and they're shielding, then doing any attack would be fruitless. However, like we both have said in this thread; you cake poke their shield with nair if you space yourself well - and yea, hopefully this solves the confusion :)...

    What to do in the neutral game with Fox?

    No, you can Nair on top of them and Jab them before they can shield if you're quick enough - please don't say you can't do this because this is how I play the game and I have numerous recording to serve as proof if necessary. And no, it's not a frame trap if they shield - if they do anything...

    What to do in the neutral game with Fox?

    Ah, okay, I can see why there is confusion; I messed up the example :p You need to Jab Lock first. If they're at a lower percentage then you want to start with 3 sets of Jab Locks (A>A, A>A, A>A) and then n-air > ect. It doesn't have to be three, but to guarantee the n-air will hit you want to...

    What to do in the neutral game with Fox?

    short hop nair fast fall jab works on the opponent when? at any percentage. not while they are shielding? If they are shielding, you can't start the combo, of course. Before you do anything, you need to hit confirm with the start of said combo, which is the Jab. How to: A,A(Quickly) > did they...

    What to do in the neutral game with Fox?

    B-Airs and empty hops are a great way to passive aggressively play the game, especially when used correctly. Fox's strongest neutral moves are his Nair and Jabs. Did you know that, if you're quick enough, you can: Jab x 2 > short hop > n-air > fast fall > Jab x 2 ect - and they won't be able to...

    Pivot FTilt combo video

    Fair enough, but what I was saying is that after he landed on the ground from your F-Air, you should have "Jab locked" him - Jab lock = jabbing him twice rapidly, waiting like .5 seconds and then jabbing him twice again; continue this for however long you want (for a more detailed guide search...

    Fox - Stuck in a Rut

    Learn how to jab lock combo opponents; throw in some up-tilts and nairs, then continue jab locking them. If they're at up-smash killing % then you want to jab lock them and then up-smash. Timing this perfectly allows you to safely up-smash with no risk of your opponent hitting you. Note: This...

    Pivot FTilt combo video

    Your Fox is coming along nicely @BradLeeTee - nice combos. A few bits of advice; while the combos are nice, you drop them for seemingly no reason or at least don't follow up - this might be because you were just showing the Pivot combos, though. When you drop them with F-Air, instead of doing a...

    How can i deal with cripplingly low self-esteem?

    The reality is, GhostUrsa, that he could do all those things by internally analyzing, noticing when those feelings occur, ect. Realsies, all you need to do is be more aware of yourself and meditate - keep those two things up for at least a month and you'll start to notice a significant increase...

    How can i deal with cripplingly low self-esteem?

    I used to be the same way - not to be that guy, but what helped me through it was a daily routine of ten minute meditation sessions. Now, whenever, and if ever, I feel the anxiety come on, I just take ten slow, deep breaths; focusing on the sensation of the breath as it passes through my...
