I've also been wondering about picking up a secondary. Not only do I have trouble against MUs like Wario, Falco, Diddy, and others that can heavily pressure shields, sometimes I just get too impatient and choose bad approach options. I am considering Fox since he's just really solid overall, but...

Thanks for the advice! The videos were also pretty helpful.

Any tips on the Zelda MU? Her Up-Smash covers my approaches in the air, and her Neutral-B punishes my ground approaches too consistently. What are some suggested approaches/mixups?

Get hyped!

We have a small group that plays at my school. I'm fairly new to Melee (started playing competitively with Brawl), but I've been playing with Tyler Fedeli and Dan Reynolds, who are a part of the Philly Melee group. But I'd like to get to meet more people in the scene and get much better at...

Sounds good! I'll share this with my group and see if anyone else is interested.

Which games are you thinking of running brackets for? I'd play any Smash game, and I might be able to bring a couple more people with me as well!

You still have some time to save up, so I hope you can make it! I loved watching the videos of the last mid-tiers matches. I used to main Fox, so I'd probably have a lot of fun with that too!

It's usually pretty fun! Though, if you take the trouble to come out to the tournament, I'd recommend to give it a chance and to enter. Even if you don't expect to win, I think it's still worth giving it a chance and getting some good play experience. It kinda adds to the overall experience...

Brawl has been out for about 5 years now, and has had an active tournament scene for just as long, so there may not be many new players getting into the scene right now. But, I wanted to write this up to describe my experience at my first regional tournament, KTAR7, and give any tips to those...

Update: My girlfriend lent me her SEPTA trailpass, so I can now get to Trenton no problem. If anyone can give me a lift from there, let me know!

Hey guys, my ride canceled on me. Is anyone coming up from or will be passing through Philly that could pick me up along the way? I can spot you gas money, and I'd greatly appreciate it! Hope to be able to make it there!

This'll be my first out of state tourney as well. I hope to learn a lot! I can bring a Wii/Brawl with me as well.

Is anybody up to play this weekend in Philly? I'm looking to be more active and meeting more players! Mostly playing Brawl right now, btw.

Hey Smashboards! I'm trying to get myself to a more competitive level of play, so I am looking for Brawlers in the Philadelphia area to play with. Reply here or send me a message and we can plan from there! I live in North Philly, and can get anywhere that SEPTA can take me.
