| Princess Toadstool ('''Peach''') had her first appearance in Super Mario Bros. for the Famicon System (Nintendo Entertainment System) in 1985 created by Shigeru Miyamoto, but was not playable. She did not even appear until the very last level. She was not playable until Super Mario Bros. 2, and has appeared playable in primarily the Mario sports games. She recieved her first true game 2006, Super Princess Peach, for the Nintendo DS.
| |
| | |
| [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] was Peach's first time into the fray, and like many of the new characters, she is very good for tournament play. Peach is a very unique character to play as, so if you plan on using her well, prepare to practice alot with her very character specific moves, most notably float cancels, and her turnip game. Both make her unique and formidable, and are neccessary to play at a high level.
| |
| | |
| Peach is available at the start of the game.

| == 10 Man Melee Strategies ==
| |
| | |
| Pull out a turnip and turn around.
| |
| | |
| * Jump and drop the turnip onto the bottom frame. Drift left a little and Up-B, hitting the top left frame. The one hit by the turnip will be knocked into the up-B. Land on the top platform.
| |
| * Tilt Forward-A the frame.
| |
| * Fall through and Up-B left, killing the bottom and top left frames. If you did this well you should land on the top and edge-cancel.
| |
| * If you didn't land on top, fastfall and down-smash frame 6. If you landed on top, dash off fastfall aerial neutral-A.
| |
| * Small jump right when the bottom one moves and Up-B left to get the last 4.
| |
| | |
| This is one of the harder sub-7 10-Man Melee strategies, but this is also very difficult to get a good time with. In the beginning, make sure frame 1 gets stuck in your up-B right when you hit frame 2. If it dies too late, you can't kill frame 5 quickly. At the end, try to be kind of far to the left before you kill frame 6. This makes frames 8 and 9 come closer to the left before you KO them, increasing the chances of getting a good score.
| |
| | |
| Unfortunately there aren’t really any alternative Peach strategies that are used. Usually if you mess up at the end, you can quickly regain control and up-B again to kill the last frames and get something like 7.50. You could also improvise. Using Peach’s most powerful ground moves (stuff like up-smash), use the Zelda formation and make up your own strategy. Just make sure to KO frames 2, 5, and 10 the best way possible and you should get under 8 seconds.

| | |
| == VS. Melee Strategies ==
| |
| | |
| === Float and Float-Cancel ===
| |
| | |
| In order to float on command, and at any height, you need to jump, and at the desired height, press down while holding Y or X (jump). You do not need to hold down, and if you want to float just above the ground, hold down before pressing jump and let go once you do. Floating at different heights have all of their own different uses, but you'll generally find your self floating at full jump height or just above the ground. If you simply hold Y or X you'll also float, but begin it much later than you can at the height of her jump. If you are falling down and you haven't used your float, you can press down and Y simultaneously, but MAKE SURE its at the same time, or else you'll waste your double jump and just float, which could be disasterous when edge guarding. Look for either the double blue circle from a double jump or the sound effect of her double jump, which is quite noticeable, and it will give you a notice so you can either wall bomb or up B.
| |
| | |
| | |
| Float Cancelling is perhaps the most important aspect of Peach's versus game. It allows her to combo from almost any aerial at low percents, and makes it almost impossible to sheild grab Peach out of her aerials. It makes all of her aerials useful at all times.
| |
| | |
| | |
| The execution is simple, but mastery of it for tournament level is not so easy. You simply float, attack while float, and land on the ground at any time during the attack, when you land on the ground, instead of going into your aerial landing animation, its replaced with your normal landing animation. This makes the lag of her aerials go down from 8 to 13 frames down to 4 frames, which is actually fairly significant.
| |
| | |
| | |
| The uses for the full jump float cancel are as follows:
| |
| | |
| | |
| * Avoid most grabs
| |
| * Out of range of most attacks
| |
| * Allows better set ups for Aerial Down A, and utilizes its priority
| |
| * Can be used after jumping out of your sheild into an aerial attack if it missed or to attack again.
| |
| | |
| | |
| The uses for the just above the ground float cancel are as follows.
| |
| | |
| | |
| * Can be used for a faster execution of aerials
| |
| * Leads into combo's more so than other heights
| |
| * Better for on stage edge guarding
| |
| * Pretty much only good use of aerial neutral A if your opponent is on the ground.
| |
| * Allows you to run to opponents and then float cancel, instead of floating at them, which is fairly slow.
| |
| * Mind games if you're fast enough with float cancel aerial neutral A
| |
| | |
| | |
| At full jump height, you can abuse alot of Peach's priority on her aerial attacks (especially the spacing on her aerial forward A and her aerial down A bottom priority. Full Jump height can also be used to punish players who like to jump the gun and attack too early, or are too agressive. Falco's who are just constantly short hop blastering, or characters busy shffl'ing can be punished with a falling Float Cancelled aerial. Just above the ground should be used against opponents who are simply sticking to the air, or for following their DI from one of your launcher attacks.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| === Turnips ===
| |
| | |
| ==== General ====
| |
| | |
| Turnips are one of the most versatile projectiles in the game, and can be used in almost any situation, ranging from edge guards, to leads ins, even out of your sheild. Turnips very rarely dont have a useful spot, you should be pulling turnips at any free moment you have when you have the space, time, and nothing useful to do (like continuing a combo or another form of edge guarding).
| |
| | |
| | |
| Turnips generally dont have a use when you are on the ground, and Peach already has an amazing aerial game, so you should try to be in the air at all times. Short hop turnip throws are nice for short range, grounded opponent lead ins, while full jump is useful for getting in from further away and occupying your opponent with the oncoming turnip. They are both useful for distractions and for combo starters. Turnips are also primarily used with Float Cancelled aerials, but note that you cannot throw turnips while floating, so when you jump with the intention of leading in with a turnip, remember the following:
| |
| | |
| | |
| * Jump
| |
| * Hold the button
| |
| * Throw with Z
| |
| * Press Down to float
| |
| * Continue with any one of your aerials.
| |
| | |
| | |
| While you can always use aerials and throw a turnip afterwards to hit them, it isnt as useful since you are basically throwing away your ability to lead in with an attack which cannot really be punished. But sometimes you want that extra damage and its easier to lead in with an aerial, and a prime example would be Mario, whose cape effectively shuts down nearly all turnips, but poor range and decent priority loses to Peach's aerials.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| ==== Edge Guarding ====
| |
| | |
| Turnips are also extremely useful in edge guarding against any character. Sometimes throwing turnips outwards while characters are far away but recovering works wonders, but generally your best bet is to wait until they come to the stage, and jump out a little bit and throw the turnip down. For alot of characters its ruins their recovery, but make sure it hits them away from the stage. Hitting towards the stage can make them rebound downwards, but often times your opponent will tech wall jump and recover normally. While it generally works, watch out because some people have gotten fairly good at simply catching the turnips in mid-air, and against Samus, they can catch turnips and bomb off of them to recovery even more! And as already stated before, other characters are simply really good at just reflecting them back, such as Doctor Mario and Mario.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==== Turnips out of Sheild ====
| |
| | |
| Turnips also have some great uses from your sheild, mainly because you can sheild cancel with a jump or turnip throw. If you press A with a turnip in hand and your sheild up, you'll simply throw your turnip, which is generally only useful when someone has you trapped in your sheild and you cant seem to get out and rid yourself of your turnip and simply attack. But an interesting tactic is when you sheild, jump, and press Z without any direction to drop your turnip on the opponent which is pressuring you. The beauty of this is that the drop basically has no animation, and the stun from the hit allows you to follow up with a float cancelled down air into basically any attack or grab. Its a nice variation from simply a sheild grab, and can result in some nice damage building.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| ==== Turnip Throw Cancel ====
| |
| | |
| This is a nice little trick with some limited use but its fairly cool anyway. The idea is that you throw your arm backwards to begin your turnip throw animation, but it never leaves your hands. There are probably ways to to this in other situations, but there is only one known, sure fire, 100% way to do this, and its fairly easy. Once you grab a turnip, short hop with Peach, and at the peak of her jump, or just as she starts to descend, fast fall and throw the turnip down at the same time (just slam down and Z together) and she'll land on the ground, begin her throw animation, but keep the turnip in hand. Once again, its mostly for show, but there are times where you can mindgame someone.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| ==== Reverse Turnip Throw Edge Hog ====
| |
| | |
| This is a tactic of my own invention, and is fairly useful. Its along the same lines as how some characters have different ways to mind game into a ledge hog. Such as Falco walking towards the ledge and turning around last second to grab, or Yoshi walking off and double jumping to grab the ledge immediately. The advantage is that you can grab the ledge quickly and gain the ledge grab invincibility, so you dont get knocked off by the up B hit box, and can easily get back on the stage to attack them in the chance that they do make it back. Execution is simple but the timing to get it right is difficult. With a turnip in hand, dash off the stage. The second you begin to fall, double jump and throw a turnip towards the stage, and if timed right, you should grab the ledge fairly quickly. The hard part comes in timing the double jump, because if you throw your turnip too early, you wont grab the ledge, but too late and you wont grab the ledge quick enough for it to be useful. If your turnip barely clears over the ledge you should be in the right area for timing.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| ==== Turnip Pull Cancel ====
| |
| | |
| This is a tactic thats useful for moving away ''while'' pulling a turnip, which is useful for obvious reasons. There are two ways to do it. The first, you dash towards the ledge, and the moment ''before'' you start to fall off, pull a turnip. The limited amount of slide Peach has should tip her over the edge while in her turnip pulling animation. This works with any platform. The other is done while floating, and then while floating backwards, landing on the edge of a platform or stage while facing away from it, and pull a turnip. The limited sliding from the landing should tip you over and continue your pull animation. This doesnt work if you face the ledge, because generally when you land from the float when facing the ledge, you'll simply be stopped by the "falling over" animation. But I think it also works when facing forward.
