A sequence of attacks where once the opponent is hit by one, the following hits are guaranteed. http://www.option-select.com/strategy/article/?a=12#combo

I use both, but I think it hurts my game a little. I do u-tilts after landing, normally, because I am already holding up on the control stick, which leads to predictability with some characters I use (mainly Lucario suffers from this). When I turn off the tap jump and use buttons, I still...

I'm a Brawl player, and I came to this site when I wanted to play at a higher level. I played Melee back in college, but I didn't play on a high level; rather simply against Whoever Walked Into My Room. After learning the "deeper" aspects of Brawl and hearing all this about how Melee is...

This sounds neat, but it could very well be a disaster. I'm an avid player of MvC and Smash, but the two have vastly different systems that don't cross over very well. Do we give Mario a light, medium, and strong attack that uses three different buttons, or do we truncate Ryu's uppercut to...

I've had similar issues when I was toying around with Lucario trying to get his uptilt consistently. And frankly, the issue still isn't really resolved. I've tried to take tapping up to jump off, but that ended up being awkward as I soon realized that I use up and Y interchangeably to jump. "I...

I started with playing through the SSE, since playing through it gives you a large chunk of the game like extra characters and such, and it helps familiarize you with the movements of all the characters. While that portion of the game has a good story (for a fighting game) and a decent set up...

This may be a little silly at this point, but I have always thought myself a little crazy when I would think, "they know what I am pushing." I would think it, and then dismiss it as hogwash. Are they really doing this? They know what I am pushing? That's my only beef with the level settings...

The name of this thread is "Wanting to become a pro", started by you. Now if you are in any way serious about becoming a "pro", you should get any thoughts such as this one out of your head. It is a travesty that you actually posted it, here, in this very thread. While pro players do play to...

From my experience, I found Mario the easiest to pick up on, probably because I played with Mario in Melee, but I always thought of him as the "standard" character; just the basics. After that, I would have to say Pit was easy to pick up on, I picked up on him within 30 minutes of playing the...

I'm still toying around with Lucario, but I just can't discern what is with the love affair with him. Am I doing something wrong?

In Melee, this statement could possibly fly under the radar, but if you are saying this about the items in Brawl, then it's a pretty foolhardy statement. The items in Brawl, when compared to those of any other game, are simply out of control. The soccer ball is basically "hit your opponent...

Lucario would have been my main, but it turns out his u-tilt is somewhat something on which his success hinges, and I simply had too much trouble doing it on command. Whenever I would try to do it quickly, I would jump instead. I then found that I could just hold the stick upward if I was...

A string of attacks and a combo can be equally effective given the following vastly different cases: String of Attacks: An incompetent opponent with no idea of the notion of using the "Block" button, moving about in a predictable manner being that you can see the savehaven that he is likely...

Yes, because then they would be able to count the people and realize that "0.1%" of the gaming community was a very gross overestimation.

I believe it to be the Japanese translation of the word "Tekken". Well, when I started out with Street Fighter, I was pretty bad because I would just mash punch and kick while my opponent would do special moves. Once I learned the specials, either my opponent would either do them faster than...
