Appreciate this guide. Theres a couple things here that I actually didnt know about, even being into competitive Melee for as long as I have. I don't necessarily feel the desire to learn how to do all the advanced stuff, but it does motivate me a little more to know better how. I just love playing the game regardless, the competition, and the communities🥰

Thank you so much I’ve been wanting to play melee for a long time because of how much i enjoyed your videos. Now that you’ve finally made the tutorial, I can now have a shot at playing the game and learn how to play the game and hopefully become as good as you. Thank you ludvix, you have no idea how much this tutorial means to me.

@thecatastrophe132 Год назад

12:40 light shielding can also be done by holding z after doing an action w/ endlag, so it's not limited to analog however, you can't freely control the shield's size the way you can with an analog, so if you're using keyboard you'll only either be doing maximum (hardshield) or minimum (lightshields)

@cyfer115 Год назад

This is an amazing guide! For new players: L-Cancel is an essential technique, but it has a lockout function. In other words, if you mash L/R as you are about to land, the game will only allow the first inputted L/R button press rather than allowing all presses within a certain time frame. This applies to teching as well, so you’ll hear “tech lockout” sometimes because someone tried to input L-Cancel, got hit immediately, tried to tech, but because of inputting for L-Cancel will always fail to tech if this entire interaction happens within a certain amount of frames. TL;DR Melee will punish you for mashing L/R to L-Cancel and tech so try to get used to pressing the shield button once rather than mashing it.

@Ludvix Год назад

Correction: L-cancel does not have a lockout function actually. And ontop of that, tech / break fall lockout is 20 frames and only applies if u full press L or R down fully (Hard pressing) . So if u want to L-cancel without being in tech lockout u can actually soft press L or R, or use Z, in fact u can spam those and it won’t tech lock u out. Yet it still applies multiple L-cancel inputs (which last 7 frames long). Very nuiance and kina complicated, didn’t wanna go into it for a beginner guide but if anyone reads this here’s the info. Edit: more about the lockout of tech thing. When u hard press L or R. The game does a 40 frame counter. The first 20 frames, if u hit the stage within that first 20 frames, u do a successful tech. If u did not hit the stage in those first 20, The next 20 frames u are locked out and cannot tech anything.

@zachariemelanson485 Год назад

I've been a competitive player for a while so I didn't learn anything, but I love the game so much it was still fun to watch lol. A while back I was actually looking for a super basic movement tutorial I could use to explain to someone the very basics of movement in Melee, and to my surprise I couldn't find anything. This is perfect.

@Chair-Son Год назад

This is an amazing resource for new players! The only issue I have is that you didnt clarify smash vs tilt inputs, specifically you never talked about using the left stick for smash attacks. Accidentally smashing or tap jumping is a super common mistake when new players try to do tilts, and its really frustrating if you don't understand what youre doing wrong. Also for shield dropping you only want to go to the corner notch not a full quarter circle

@PilotGSPL 8 месяцев назад

@Nigglai Год назад

To anyone who wants to learn how to shield drop, don't do the quarter circle down after you shield cause that is hard and you will often roll or sidestep. Hold left or right, then shield, then roll the stick quarter circle down from there and it will automatically shield drop.

@Ludvix Год назад

yeah its also dependent on controller, i got some where i barley needed go down and it drops

@simanolastname2399 Год назад

Cool video! Personally, I feel like there are certain things that should have been discussed earlier, and certain things that weren't gone over at all. DI is a very basic technique and is almost instinctual - It definitely shouldn't be one of the last things discussed. It could've also been mentioned that DI has to be inputted while you're getting hit or pre-emptively and DI doesn't affect you while you're already being launched. Some of the more difficult techniques - Ledge Dash, Shield Dropping, Edge Cancelling seem haphazardly spread throughout the video with no indication of the fact that they are more difficult than the rest of the techniques (with the exception of stating a good ledgedash is hard) Probably should have warned about overuse of rolls and airdodges No mention of slight-up to prevent tap jumping while up-tilting iirc No boost grabbing Warning against maining multiple characters Some other stuff probably IN GENERAL, I feel like advanced techniques are better conveyed in documents or dedicated videos. I personally am making a google doc that covers a bunch of important techniques and a separate document that helps with choosing your main. Regardless, this is definitely a helpful guide for new players.

@Ludvix Год назад

Good points, mostly wanted it to be more on where to start and the idea of the movements, so at least they can watch a pro match and decipher what’s happening. That way this video isn’t like one hour long. All great points mentioned

A good guide, marred only slightly by having DI after so much more advanced stuff, imo.
