Tips for Marth

  • Marth deals extra damage when he hits opponents with the tip of his sword.
  • Marth's back aerial turns him around, to allow for mix-ups and such.
  • Sour spots can combo into sweetspots. learning these are key to winning games
  • Spam tf out of f-tilt that move bussssstteeeed. Also dancing blade is really strong so get good at getting the tipper
  • Try using tilts more their very effective when spaced, Id say imagine a platform between you and your opponent about a half of that platform would be marth tipper range.
  • Marth excels at out spacing his opponent and keeping stage. You must stay patient in order to gain the most benefits out of his tilts and ariels. Always remain calm and choose you attacks wisely
  • Spacing is key! You need to be able to space away from your opponent to get tippers and to keep them away
  • When you get the Boots, give them to Marth, since he is the only one who can seize and visit villages, he will be the one who needs to be the most mobile.
  • Noob level = Marth < Lucina. Pro level = Marth >>>>> Lucina. Master his tipper, he immediately becomes better than Lucina.
  • Upb is a kill move if you hit the sweetspot at the base of the move (useful for parry -> out of shield option), but use it sparingly
  • Marth's Dancing Blade is very good for spacing against dash dancing, but be careful against opponents that jump a lot.
  • Saying just switch to lucina isn't helpful, this is supposed to be an area for tips on how to play MARTH.
  • Tipper
  • Marth's Counter is very effective on aggresive players. You should use it more often if you don't use it much already.
  • Just change to Lucina, she is honestly a lot better in the new meta game that Ultimate has.
  • Marth v palutena is not the best for marth you just become one with the oof
  • Play lucina instead.
  • Marth is hard against the diddy. The ******* diddy will grab you and throw you so ******* many times and it ******* sucks, and Jake likes men.
  • Connor is bad at King dedede too, so make sure to call him a **** after every match.
  • Just play Lucina u bots.
  • Marth is a ******* ******, watch out for this.
  • Marth deals extra damage when he hits opponents with the tip of his sword.
