PP is special among top-level Smashers. If you have ever been to his dream he honestly loves to and puts in great effort to help guide and educate players. If you ask him a question he won't actually give you an answer. " hey I am a marked player struggling in this matchup what can I do" and he will tell you he will tell you to use this move more often to watch for spacing on this specific move to look out for this move and with punish that specifically. He truly cares and wants to educate and that is incredible

Your "trifecta" is a great way of adapting learning to melee. I'm a chess coach of over 10 years now, and the 3 components we use are solo practice (tactics, combinations, openings/endgames, etc.), coaching, and serious tournament play (although over the past year that has had to be substituted for serious competition, preferably with someone you know IRL). I'm sure that's similar for many other sports/competitive games and they have their own methodology that's incredibly similar too. Really good advice and cool to see someone who clearly knows about improvement talking on the subject! Keep up the great Marth play too, can't wait to see you keep taking some more big heads in bracket!

You need to be critical of why you put out a certain move, especially if you got punished for it and ask yourself, why did it get beat, or what could I have done in the situation differently, and how could I have prevent that from happening in the future and apply it to your training.

loved the tier list topic, the logo/symbol choices, and the level of detail and insight you went into each methodology. if you're open to yt comment suggestions, have your script on your monitor so it looks like you're relatively looking at your camera rather than looking down throughout the whole video. Also would have loved a little more concrete examples (i.e. bringing up how Armada had to train his YL and fox for years before bringing them to tournament in the main switching/multi-main sections) Overall loved this different take on melee tier lists, especially as a newer player. looking forward to more of this content!

Must-have for anyone serious about improvement: Having a coach), the trifecta: solo practice (tech skill), analysis (see what you did wrong), friendlies (cycle), watching/reading guides, mindset training (mentality, choking, cognitive exercises), using tools (ikneedata, uncle punch, slippi analysis) Will probably help you improve: discussion groups (discord), entering tournaments, health (eating, sleeping, etc...), Might help you improve: unfocused practice session (unranked), only doing one or two of the trifecta, copying top players, learning obscure tech (multishines), having concrete goals (get PR) Unlikely to help you improve: Casual friendlies (items, hyrule temple, etc...) , dual maining/secondairies, switching mains,

pretty good, only problem i had was with the "setting concrete goals" part. When I was on the come up in SoCal, I would frequently set other competitors as "goals" to beat. It started off small with beating the best in my little city, then beating the best in my county, and then slowly taking off sets from the socal pr players. I don't think settings goals like this is bad unless you have a weak mindset. But you should be working on that anyway. Other than that though, this is a great list on how to improve. I'm glad you mentioned the mango thing, the better you get, the more you realize "top players" aren't nearly playing the same game as us.

setting goals is not necessarily a bad thing, as it can help with some motivators, but imo it should not be the main motivator since it's more of an extrinsic than an intrinsic motivation.

I've been playing competitive Melee since late 2006 and I've improved more in the last 2 years than all the rest combined. The biggest difference was mentality, but not in the way most people talk about it. I heard so much about not choking in tournament. Not letting anger/frustration ruin your play. Learning from your mistakes instead of blaming the game. "Playing to learn" rather than "playing to win". Not getting hung up on certain match-up and play styles. All of that's good to know, but that wasn't my problem. No, my problem was that I felt like my life was hopeless and there was nothing I could do to improve anything (smash or otherwise). I put tons of hours into practice, not because I thought it would make me better, I just wanted to be able to say I had tried. Which is both true and false. I did put in a lot of effort and I made the best choices I could with my limited understanding, but I certainly wasn't paying attention and practicing efficiently. It's very hard to give something 100% of your energy and taking in all that's happening if you don't believe, deep down in your heart, that you effort makes a difference. The most tragic part about the whole thing is that I never worked on my mental issues because I didn't think that it would have helped.

I disagree with the placement of the goal setting, mostly because I just took a sport psychology class and a lot of the concepts apply to smash. If you really are aiming for the top, having a concrete goal such as pr or top in your region is absolutely necessary. It’s definitely more important to have a love for the game and be intrinsically motivated, but that shouldn’t put the goal setting process at a lower tier. Part of making the outcome goal effective is also making other goals that are smaller, and more in your control. Performance goals, like individual tournament records get a little closer, or performing a tech you practiced in a game. What’s incredibly helpful though is small process goals. Small mental or physical strategies that are fully in ones control. Practicing breathing, proper and positive self talk, understanding how you think about the game itself; these are goals that improve your improvement process, and many top athletes and coaches in physical sports use this goal framing strategy to map out an athletes “road to success,” so to speak. I think this will apply to video games as well, especially cognitively intensive ones such as melee. Finishing the video, I bet the healthy gamer coach would also help with the micro goals. Having that overarching goal is also an important ingredient in the goal mapping formula, and does need to be used responsibly to be effective. Since I don’t know the extent to which it’s mandatory at high level play, I’ll put it one or two tiers higher.
@KoDoRiN

I agree with your take. To clarify, the reason why it ranked low is because often it's smasher's ONLY source of motivation, which in my opinion makes it pretty bad. Thus, why it only might help you.

If you want to reach out to a bigger audience then maybe consider changing the title to “Smash improvement tier list” instead of Melee and edit the description, but that’s your call.

Great video, only have a tiny nit pick. I think of concrete goals as a tool. Like you said, if you only focus on it, it can absolutely demotivate you but I think that if you don't look at the concrete results of what and how you're doing (either with gameplay or mentality) you might find it difficult to improve. I think that you tie bit into analysis but I wanted to leave a comment to help the algorithm.

It's definitely a process. My character main process went from puff --> falco --> fox --> Marth myself, and what really made me fall in love with Marth was his wavedash feeling, and knowing he's a top tier that I know won't hold me back at top level. You can definitely just play any characters you want on the side, but you should choose 1 to invest in long-term, and really see which one of those characters you have a good connection with. Feel free to ask more questions for clarification regarding this.

Hello, I am a sheik main (you played me a few days ago in viewer games) who used to main fox. in the short term, even with 0 practice, my fox likely out performs my sheik vs ice climbers. Is it worth it to go fox just to get the win but practice sheik ics with the intent to go sheik eventually, since i am investing 0 hours of practice into fox? Thank you

I recommend you stick it out with Sheik. Sheik has the tools to overcome Icies, and when you run into a competent Icies player, they will eat up your limited fox. Might as well ride it out with Sheik with valuable lessons you may learn long-term.
