1 : 1 Live Coaching Session (60 Minutes)

Real time coaching in an arena with me for 60 minutes. We will do a quick consultation prior to your session (completely free of charge) to establish some of your goals, characters and personal preferences. This is so we both get to know each other and establish aims prior to a session to make sure it is both enjoyable and productive. You will be given real-time feedback between games relating to your main points of strength and key areas for development. I will also offer other pointers that will further your development. For these sessions, you can use up to 2 characters in a session. This is to make sure that your written development plan is focused and that feedback given is able to be acted upon reliably. All coaching sessions come with an extensive written development plan (between 1500-2500 words on average) to assist and guide you as you train. The development plan will include the parts of your play that you should continue to execute well, the areas of your play that would benefit from closer attention, areas of your play that improved during the session and specific points to focus on to assist with your training and development. Sessions also come with an optional recording that will record both the game and any audio from VC chat together. This video will be uploaded to my YouTube channel as an unlisted video and given to you personally to view. Nobody else will have access to the link for the video except you. You can use this video to go over parts of the session again and refer notes back to moments from the session where applicable. If you wish to ask questions about smash or my services, feel free to join my discord - free of charge.

VOD Analysis and Review

Send over your replays of games you would like to be analysed in-depth. Critiques can be directed to specific areas of your play per your request (e.g. "Please look at my ledgetrapping and offstage disadvantage in particular"). I have done countless VOD Reviews for players for a vast array characters and abilities. I can teach you how to play certain matchups or identify areas for improvement for your play with suggestions to improve them. I have confidence that I can identify areas of your play that can be improved and recommend alternatives to make you the player you want to be. VOD review content often contains lots of written information to properly explain the theory that goes into what will help you improve. If you would like to request a copy of the VOD Review content, please contact me on discord (linked in profile). Furthermore, if you have any questions about VOD Reviews, please feel free to message me on discord. $15 per game / set of 3 games for $40 - All VOD reviews come with written notes, timestamps and recommended targets for your development.

Focused Matchup Practice Session

This session is for players looking to develop their ability to fight specific matchups. I am able to teach you how to play matchups for any character in the game that I use. The following characters are ones I am the most practiced and knowledgeable with (all of which have been used in a tournament setting): - Marth - Lucina - Roy - Chrom - Ike - Robin - Corrin - Byleth - Pyra/Mythra - Pit/Dark Pit - Mewtwo There are other characters I am proficient in, but these are the ones I am most proficient with and have used in tournament settings successfully. It doesn't matter what character you use, as I will take time to prepare and study prior to our session, however it may take a few days to practice and study the character of your choosing to ensure that you get the matchup practice desired. A matchup practice session will use 1 character from me and (ideally) 1 character from you for the entire session. The session will come with written content to help you with the matchup and assist your develop whilst training. Such content will often include: - Optimal combos and alternative routes based on percentage and rage - Mixups and 50/50s for an optimal advantage state - Ledgetrapping and edgeguarding techniques - Onstage disadvantage including landing and avoiding kill setups - Offstage disadvantage including recovery and getting off ledge - Neutral play including spacing, options, movement and conditioning - Understanding what each move does and when/where to use them optimally Concepts such as these will be covered in order to set you up for success against any particular characters giving you trouble. No matter who I'm up against, I can teach you how to beat your demons. If you have any questions regarding this session, including which characters I can best teach you to fight against, feel free to contact me on Discord (link in profile).

Comprehensive Written Character Guide

This session will teach you everything you need to know about a character that I specialise in. I will provide a full written guide about one of the following characters: - Marth - Lucina - Roy - Chrom - Ike - Robin - Corrin - Byleth - Mewtwo - Pyra/Mythra - Pit/Dark Pit Since these characters are the ones I have had the most competitive success with and the most experience using over a period of several years, they are the characters I feel most comfortable writing about. Currently, I only offer written character guides for these characters. This written guides will cover the following topics to give you as much information as possible about how to use these characters properly and efficiently: - A general overview of the character alongside their strengths, weaknesses, key matchups and archetype - Optimal combos and alternative routes, including setups from grabs, grounded moves and aerial attacks - What moves to use in every state of play, including neutral, advantage, disadvantage, on-stage and offstage, and how to use them properly - The purpose of every move the character has and how they link with other tools in the character's toolkit - How to perform neutral concepts such as spacing, flowcharts and - How to perform advantage state concepts such as juggling, ledgetrapping, pressuring, reading and performing kill confirms - How to perform disadvantage state concepts such as recovery, landing, ledge play, out of shield game and resetting neutral - Movement options and how to optimally move and position as the character Written guides are expected to be approximately 3000 or more words and very detailed. The information is formatted in a legible and easy to understand manner, so it is clear to see sections and parts of the guide you may want to revisit to aid your development as you train. If you have any questions about the contents of a written character guide, feel free to join my discord server and ask away.

About me

Howdy there, soleil here. I'm a competitive SSB player who used to be a PR level competitor, but nowadays I coach much more than I compete since it's what I enjoy most. Currently, I co-main Chrom and Corrin but, as a Sword character specialist, I'm highly proficient with all FE reps (Marth, Lucina,...

Frequently asked questions

How does coaching work?

In my Discord server, you can find all the relevant information for how coaching works and what to expect. If You still have questions after this, you are more than welcome to message me on Discord and ask about coaching expectations and what it entails.

How do I find my main in SSBU?

Players getting into smash often struggle to decide between the 86 characters that SSBU has to offer. A common issue is that players have no idea where to start given the size of the roster. In my coaching server, I provide a highly effective method to narrow down characters to find your main or secondary in an organised manner. For more details, join my Discord server and ask about how to find a main!

Why did you become a coach?

I've always loved helping people learn, improve and achieve their goals. I became a coach in multiple sports and finally a full-time teacher to pursue this in my personal life. Smash coaching is an extension of this and an opportunity to help others improve at a game I love and have immense knowledge about. I find the process of learning and improving to be highly satisfying, so I enjoy facilitating this and giving my students the tools they need to thrive and achieve.

What kinds of player do you coach?

I have coached players ranging from absolute beginners playing the game for the first time all the way up to PR level and top ranked players who compete at majors. While I specialise in Fire Emblem characters, I have coached players of all kinds of mains, coaching almost every character in the game over the years. Whether you are a player learning the fundamentals of smash, or a competitor looking to achieve a PR ranking, I'll be able to help you progress.

Where can I find you outside of Metafy?

I can be found on the following socials, all of which should be in my links on the Metafy page: Discord @soleil_fe [https://discord.gg/Eg3H9tHv7a] - Twitter @lynx_soleilssb [https://twitter.com/lynx_soleilssb] - Twitch @soleilSSB [https://www.twitch.tv/soleilSSB] - YouTube @soleilSSB [https://www.youtube.com/@soleilSSB]
