We have created an irc channel (#tl-smash on Quakenet) for people to find others to play with on Dolphin or just to chat about Smash. Feel free to join!

I browsed the melee streams on twitch earlier today and only saw 2 live, neither of which seemed particularly interesting at the time, so that made me a little disappointed. I'll probably just look for some good channels to follow and make sure I catch them when they're live.
Melee doesn't really have good weekday streams. There are only a few decent streamers who stream from home. One of them is Armada, who was mentioned already, and another one is PewPewU. Tomorrow at 2 PM Pacific Time twitch.tv/pewpewu is gonna have a round robin between good players from NorCal, and there should be a good amount of character diversity. It's a shitty time but it will be about as good as it gets for Melee streams during the week.
Top tier melee streams (in terms of viewer/chat interaction) Armada, Pewpewu, Westballz, MikeHazeGaming when Sung is on which is never , Lffn, LiquidKen
HugS86 does critiques and playing but I haven't watched him much so can't say. Same with MacDsmash Mang0 does critique sometimes but not much melee since his internet sucks Scar and Toph do stuff on meleeitonme on... Mondays I think? They talk about stuff and there's some friendlies going on
Haven't really watched these guys but I hear they're pretty good: KDJ: not as active as Ken M2K Hbox and Chillin: they're on azubu tho, not twitch. Chillin sometimes has Azen on
Tourney/local streams: vgbootcamp and clashtournaments ofc saltyplayground (europe) showdowngg (norcal) leveluplive (socal, super smash sundays starting up soon) azprojectmelee (i don't really watch this but i hear it has melee too) evenmatchupgaming (toronto)

I mained fox and I was curious if you guys could point me into the direction of some good guides that would teach me some good tricks or things that are good to learn. LIke is there a good vid for wave dashing and what it is used for? Anyway any help would be appreciated thanks

Also Smashboards > Melee > Character discussion > Character of your choice > Stickies, usually a decent guide there
As Falco, how does one deal with a campy Sheik that likes to grab out of shield? By her being campy I feel like I am forced to approach but I fall for the bait...a lot.

As a guy who's main practice partner is a falco and I sometimes play a campy sheik, you pretty much just have to laser like crazy. Falco's laser is quite possibly the best projectile in the game so use it to get the sheik to come to you! Also dash dancing is important so you can fake in like you are going to dash attack then dash away for a second, trying to bait out the grab attempt. If you get them to do it, then you can punish!
But I don't play falco I just play sheik, and I'm not the best player. That's just my advice!
I'm trying to get consistent at falco side b platform canceling on the edge of FD so I can do an immediate suicide dair off the stage because I like to style. I can't explain why I chose this one but it's super fun and yolo
