Well, just 15 minutes in training mode and I think I diagnosed why I've been messing up bomb recovery on #SmashBox over the past two weeks. was just down to lack of coordination in my left hand. Was hitting B slightly before down. #ssbu

Woohoo, I beat **Hi-Fi Rush** on **Rhythm Master** difficulty with **stage S ranks** and then completed the 60 levels of the **Rhythm Tower** sadly with an **A rank**. Oh well.

I am done. I can move on from this great game. To acknowledge its faults, the platforming is mediocre, the story is just okay, the level pacing could be better in the early parts.

Two games to prepare for next: **Sifu** and **Celeste: Strawberry Jam**.

I can actually hit this now?!? Twice in a week is at least something! #SmashBox #ssbu #ssbuLink

#SmashBox update; Well, I'm giving up on having my one shield button be on my left pinky. That probably wasn't too smart lol. But now, I need to think about one other action that will be harder if I give a shield to my right hand also. 🤔🤔🤔 #ssbu

@VentureSmash That was so sick! I’ve never wrapped my head around how people actually use the #smashbox Seems so difficult to me.

#ssbu #ssbulink hit the footstool combo in elite smash for the first time on #smashbox! its definitely a lot easier >_>

Also, on controller with link, I would always let go of shield before inputting grounded up B to avoid getting rolls. HOWEVER, with tilt modifiers on #smashbox thats no longer necessary. Can just hold onto shield!

Things I'm working on with the BOX now: spaced FH, FF fair-2 into muscle memory... missing the second hit too often when I try to incorporate it into strings! #ssbu #linkmain #SmashBox

#smashbox progress: week 7! Spacing is starting to feel a bit more natural, but I can tell its not as good yet. Also realized my disadvantage on Box is actually garbage vs some characters compared to controller. Hard to practice the reaction DI + directional air Dodges... or smash DI + a defensive option to get out of some combos. I just need to play more games against characters that can combo me I guess. #ssbu

In my experience, box-controllers for smash and much less taxing on your thumb/hands if A and c-stick - the most used buttons - are mapped to multiple fingers. A lot less movement for the thumb

My setup maps them to index/middle/ring finger
