    great video - I don't play melee anymore, just spectate, but a lot of stuff you discuss can be applied to all kinds of practice. if you're looking for video ideas, i'd be interested in learning how you practice/prepare mentally for high pressure tournaments, since you've gotten really good at that over the years. i'd also like to see your approach to dealing with bad habits/bad muscle memory. loved watching you at goml even if you weren't playing your best, your attitude and self-discipline are inspiring, hope to see you in grand finals again soon!

    Things like this (how to train videos) are SO important. Learning how to break things down, control your practice, and especially time/analyze your practice is truly the way to get good at any skill. I'm a professional trombonist and didn't start really progressing until I learned to be as deliberate/consistent as possible.

    just to note, ucf can be used in 20xx
    steps:
    1. go to 20xx.me/ucf and download the codeset
    2. in your dolphin folder (or faster melee), go to game settings and search for your game ID. i would recommend downloading the game code www.mediafire.com/file/qnjgfcitilf9bcu/Game+Code.zip
    3. unzip the file and place your 20xx file in there
    4. the ID should be GALEXX
    5. so now in gamesettings, search for GALEXX
    6. copy and paste the ucf codeset
    7. go to gecko codes and enable ucf
    8. enjoy 20xx with ucf!
    great tutorial leffen!

    5:00 I always tell people I don't "gain exp" until the next day or until after the training/sparring is over which was weird for smash club at my school. I'd get bodied, replay the moments I messed up in my head, typically when I lost neutral, and see if I can exploit a theoretical strategy against it later. this lead to a Dedede mirror in Smash 4 where I won with n-air, up-tilt, shield, up-tilt, shield, up tilt, shield, up tilt, up smash. Unfortunately, casuals never learn. Against good players I'd slow down the match to find their patterns. I always relate this to the training Trunks did in DBSuper where he imagined every way he lost to Freiza over the pond.

      I do it for characters with drift and don't have to shuffle quite as fast like peach and jiggly. Peach float z nair seems way more consistent for me and jiggly turnaround bair with z seems better for me.
      (When I play those characters)

    I wish ultimate had all of these training mechanics!! I always though wave dashing and L-cancelling were tech skills discovered by players, not actual mechanics in the game so that’s pretty cool lol

      Wave dashing and L cancelling are mechanics in the game AND they were discovered by players. Those things arent mutually exclusive. Im not sure exactly what you meant but i think seeing L cancel and Wave dash mentioned in the game itself may have thrown you off, but those are only listed in Event Mode because he is on Uncle Punch's amazing training mod which modifies the events
