Critique some CFL players, por favor.

[Pasqual]

Some semi-recent vids of myself and my friends. We're waiting on some more footage from the last X-Play tournament to get put up, as well. Any constructive crits are welcomed.

The falcon should tech more... maybe some edgehogs?
I dont really have any idea what I'm talking about...

 

[Pasqual]

The Falcons are both good edgeguarders/hoggers, they just tend to goof off a bit in friendlies and go for different stuff. I'll let them know about it though, thanks.

Any other takers?

 

[BAMN]

I think the Doc needs to pill more, also: Nair's work wonders in almost any match up

 

[Pasqual]

Nair's are usually good, but very situational with characters like Jiggs and Ganon. I think the only time Ganon's is actually useful is against Falcon, really. Thanks for checking these out. Found some 2v2 stuff of you guys, are there any singles matches up?

 

[SheerMadness]

X-Play is a noob tourney. The only reason people from smashboards go there is to win money. Go to Gigabits.

 

[Pasqual]

It's rare when I can make it out that way, and I'm still not on a high enough level to really be competing there. The X-Play tourneys offer me players more on my level.

When's the next Gigabits tourney, anyway? Are they doing low-tiers again?

 

[BAMN]

No Singles yet. Like I said, those vids are a few months old and I only use my main like once in em. Ditto about skill lvls Pasqual, I am not quite up to Gigabits skill level yet so X-Play is good for me as well.

 

[Raistlin]

I only watched the Jiggs video because I main Jiggs. Anyway. You pounded waaaaaaaay too much. Your first two deaths were because you threw out a random pound and he kneed you right in the face. Pound less, because it's a very easy move to punish due to the tremendous amount of lag. Not that it's a bad move, because horribly broken and I love it, but if you use it too much, you lose. And where were all the bairs? I've never seen a Jigglypuff use so few backairs. It's quite possibly her best non-rest move. It hits about a Jigglypuff of air behind her and out-prioritizes most attacks. It's also used most in her amazing WoP, which can get you really easy kills, especially on someone like Falcon who has such a predictable recovery. I also saw you trying for a couple up-tilt rests, but having an up-smash come out. All I can say for that is practice the up-tilt to get the feel of it. And also, that technique works best if you combo (through an up-air) or L-cancel an aerial to it, not by waiting for your opponent.

Whew, thanks. I knew my weakness in the utilt department but hadn't really noticed about the pounds/bairs. I can usually bair WoP alright but platforms kinda mess me up, I need more practice on them. Whatever, no johns, cheers for checking out the vid.

 

[Raistlin]

When/where are these X-Play tournies?

 

[Pasqual]

West Oaks Mall in Ocoee. One every couple months or so, next is June 23rd. They've got a site but I don't know the name, just google "west oaks x-play" and that should hook you up. Where you located, Raistlin?

 

[Raistlin]

Waterford Lakes in Orlando. I don't know how far that mall is, but it's not too out of the way, I'm sure. Unfortunately there's a Gigabits the same day, and I don't want to miss that.

 

[Pasqual]

Ah, they synced up again? Crap, I think they did last time too, or it was X-Play and Twilight Showdown out in Tampa. Is Gigabits doing a low-tier tourney this time?

 

[Raistlin]

Nah, they cut those because it took two much time. The two regular tournaments take the whole day as is.

 

[Pasqual]

Ah, that's too bad. If you ever feel like smashing on a non-tourney day though, hit me up on here and we'll try to set something up. Dig?

 

[Raistlin]

Absolutely. In fact, I already have some friends coming over at noon on saturday if you want to come by too. You can bring some of your own friends too if you want.

 

[Pasqual]

Hm, we could work that. We might be meeting up with BAMN and some of his crew that night at X-Play so we could head out your way and you guys could follow us back if you wanted.

 

[bladeofapollo]

Anyway. You pounded waaaaaaaay too much.

It's funny seeing that from you. J/k, you've let up recently.

And also, that technique works best if you combo (through an up-air) or L-cancel an aerial to it, not by waiting for your opponent.

This part is even funnier. YOU SHOULD L-CANCEL TOO.

 

[Raistlin]

Hey, hey, I know that Apollo. Just because I don't do these things doesn't mean I don't know I SHOULD.

 

[bladeofapollo]

This much is... True.
