Smash Training is a spaced repetition trainer for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate techniques. How it works:

1. Smash Training gives you a set of drills to do based on your current weak points.
2. You do the drills and record how well you did. Smash Training uses a spaced-repetition algorithm to update its model of which exercises you should work on.
3. You rest for a day or two, then come back for more practice.

Deliberate practice is the best way to improve your skills in any given domain. Ten minutes of deliberate practice beats an entire hour of mindless repetition. The goal is to intensely focus on practicing techniques at the edge of your comfort zone. This training system only works if you practice deliberately.

I recommend The Little Book of Talent to learn more about concrete deliberate practice techniques.

Smash Training can teach you technical skills like spacing aerial attacks, because they improve with practice. Smash Training can't teach you strategic skills like deciding which moves to use in a given situation. That's because it's easier to automatically generate and assess technical drills.

Nonetheless, having strong technical skills is necessary to become a strong player. You need to hone your technical skills to to execute your strategy.
