also what counts as an advanced move
every move in melee was pretty simple to pull of and incorporate in different situations

There are techniques in melee (programmed and exploits) that are not listed in the instructions.

Among these, the advanced techniques are generally considered to be:

Directional Influence (DI)
Smash Directional Influence
Teching
Short Hop
Fast Fall
Lag-Cancel
Shield Grab
Shield Cancels (upsmash, wavedash, & upb)
Crouch Cancel
Dash-Dancing
Wavedashing

Unfortunately, if you have not incorporated these into your game you are at a huge disadvantage to those who have - i.e. you rated yourself a 9.5 but if you were to play a tournament goer you would be at a tremendously massive disadvantage.
