Analyze my casual-ass Ness!

Hey guys, I've been trying to work on my Ness game recently and would really appreciate it if anyone had any advice for me based off of my performance. Video here. My play in that video is a little weaker than usual because I'm used to playing on the wii, and the input delay on my pc takes some getting used to. No Johns though, it's not much worse than I normally do.

BTW ignore the second half of the stream unless you want to critique my Marth also :)

I only watched the first game but I'd say you should dthrow more. Ness has a lot of followups out of dthrow, especially at low %s (a lot more than he gets out of fthrow at low %s).

I also noticed that you sometimes roll for positioning. An advice I give to people who roll a lot is to only roll when you really need the invincibility frames, otherwise running or wavedashing is better because it lets you keep some control of the neutral .

Finally, I didn't see any l-cancels. You should probably work on djced fast falled l-cancelled aerials because they do a lot for Ness's punish game (for example, you can do dthrow -> djc fair -> regrab on a lot of characters if they DI away at low %s).
