“FiveMoves” reads the cheeky handle that Press Button Win uses to play online. Perhaps “FiveishMoves” was already taken, but that’s alright — it’s still perfect for his brand new tutorial series “Think, Don’t Mash!”, which tackles the concept of simplifying move-lists in order to learn a new character or game. While the example provided here is performed in Street Fighter V, it’s a broad concept that applies across all fighters.

The concept is as simple as the effort required to make it work — by forming a gameplan around a few moves, you learn to use those moves better. It also helps commit that information into your long-term memory, and gradually, you can build a nuanced understanding of a character’s entire repertoire through this simple chunking exercise.

Are you a Smash player that’s been on the fence about Hit Box‘s new Smash Box controller? The company has put a new demonstration video just for you:

Featuring programmable variables for tilt values and angles, the Smash Box’s functionality is centered largely around “modifier” buttons. As demonstrated in this out-of-the-box beginner’s guide, the modifier button allows you to toggle between full and half-held presses — this gives you control that is more difficult to achieve with an analog stick.
