Another year has flown away. It's Hard to believe that it's been 4 years ago since my very first ssb match on netplay, still remember how excited was that moment, i was like "OMG I'm playing against someone from another part of the globe!" also my English was terrible so I barely understand what those random people that i first played were telling me but they just couldn't understand at all my terrible typing.
So, I keep undefeated during my first days playing against random people, of course I felt so happy and proud of myself for the victorys and the good comments of people about how my Mario was pretty good.
I didn't have that much sense of competition until i met Jimbot, the one who introduced me to my first online tourney, which was his second tourney, there i met great players like Fragmastergen, nico and my worst nightmare at netplay, cHaos. for most of the entrants i was just another newbie to fill spots on the tourney but they don't even expected me to go through the finals and play against Frag and cHaos, maybe Jimbot did, i guess he had some faith on me to defeat cHaos, the outstanding superior Kirby user, it may sound weird but his name inspired terror over kaillera for some time. While i barely handle my match against frag and won, i just couldn't stand against cHaos and lost badly to him, now i was kinda sad and disapointed because i wanted to win that badly, but at last i had a reason to try to get better at ssb. now my goal was... Defeat cHaos!
Jimbot made another tournament, so of course I enter, my goal this time was not wining the tourney but have a victory against cHaos, i met other good players during this season, like moogle, Frizzle, mekanos and vicioman. my opponents were harder this time, but i made it through the brackets, just to being stopped again by cHaos, this time at the quarter finals, even tough I improved a little and almost won against him, he somehow started to destroy me again.
I joined to Raw's second tourney., hoping to hit another chance against cHaos, but now i couldn't even go through second round. I "retired" from online SSB for a while, because of my embarrassing performance at raw's tourney and the fact that my notes at high school were going bad and my parents wont let me play for that... Also i met Sephirothken and got defeated, I've been waiting for a rematch since then.
it was until 2005 when I finally comback to my online activity, many things changed, cHaos was no longer #1 and other players really improved like Raw, Nico, moogle, Dark Link and many others, I met SuPeRbOoMfAn who become my favorite Team partner and friend, we entered on a team tourney at Smash Pros Forums and "won", heh it got messed up at the finals, we were supposed to play against Frizzle and Battousai but always one of us was missing, if not frizzle, then me or super, anyway i guess we won that one xP.
arround 2005/2006 where my ssb activity was higher i met Johnny and Malva, i was sceptical about how good were they, specially Malva who could destroy Johnny, "no way!" I couldn't stand a chance against Johnny but Malva was able to take him down? god i really need to improve! when i finally played malva for the first time, i hardly could lie a hit on him, his Link was just crazy, i couldn't even think about how good he'll be with another characters.
Smash Pros started to lose activity, almost end of 2005 i started to take care for the main event of the site "The Series" made some improvement's to the rules and added a Ladder Ranking, as expected, malva got top pretty quickly owning the belts and defending them. super improved a lot along with Dark Link who defeated my mario at my attempt to get the Mario belt.
There was another tourney at Smash Pros, it was double elimination i guess, can't remember at all, may be the last one before it's shutdown, cHaos returned and beat malva there, everyone was surprised, me as well of course, cHaos has been always awsome with Kirby, but frizzle stopped cHaos, i had a hard way through the brackets but i made it to the finals, where malva finally ended my dreams to victory 4-0 xP...
Smash Pros Forums died at half of 2006 after summer vacations, even tough the series was still running, not as active like before, the site got hacked and soon lost most of its members.
this year i met alot of good players, but also some others have "leaved", there're too many that I'll feel bad if i forgot to mention anyone of them and i miss those who have left.
4 years of online ssb... sometimes i wonder what would happen if i have never met Jimbot, probably i wouldn't have joined his tourneys and never met all those players who helped me to improve like frag and cHaos, may be I've never been able to play against malva, who's now the one i want to overcome after cHaos. So i want to thank Jimbot for giving me the chance to play on his tourney, i guess is thanks to him that now i'm here, thanks to cHaos too, for helping me to improve in my early netplay days, thanks malva/isai for all your advices, thank you super for being my partner and friend as well as Dark Link, moogle, eva00, Solrac and everyone else sorry if i'm missing many others the list is just too big xP, THANK YOU ALL!
Now the way is harder, there are more players that have improved and grown better than me, but that's good because if they can get that good, i can do it as well.
well those were some of my thoughts that i wanted to share with you xP. Happy New Year!
