Learn to Analyze Your Match Replays in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U with This Lengthy Guide from KillerJawz

Recognizing your own bad habits and taking steps to break them can be the hardest part of improving in any fighting game. Watching your own replays can certainly help, but knowing how to find those places where you can improve is key to getting better as a player. In his ongoing Trainer Tips series, the UK’s resident Smash 4 teacher and Mewtwo main KillerJawz has provided a lengthy guide on how to analyze your past matches and extract the most important details to help you improve.

Using the example of the grand finals set between Abadango’s Mewtwo and Mr-R’s Sheik at Melbourne Battle Arena, KillerJawz not only points out certain important moments and interactions during the set, but analyzes why a trade or mistake may be important to the match as a whole. This granular analysis should help in instructing you on what things to look out for in your own replays, as well as showing the thought process of a top player during the course of a match. While this video is useful for all Smashers who are wanting to improve, it’s incredibly useful for both commentators who are looking to work on their play by play skills, as well as Mewtwo mains trying to crack the Sheik matchup.
