Yeah man, Its me Brandon. I am so proud and honored that my sheik inspired you. Sheik and falcon are my current mains, but im looking for a change, because falcon isnt quite good enough. and sheik just isnt my type of character.
You are going to have to remind me what you looked like and your main. I played alot of different people that day.
I feel as if that tourney was the spark of the community finally pulling together.
. I will be at four pillars next sunday, we are having a small tourney with some good competition. I suggest everybody participates, it will greatly benefit the community. four pillars is located in the card shop of the bowling alley KBxtreme. Also, remind me your main, your name, and what you look like. cant wait to battle it out again and see your progress. also, code bread, is that like cody or justyn?
Heya, glad to see you on the forums. As to how I look, I'm dark/dirty blond, 5'7" or so, always wearing shorts, and although my hair is short, it sometimes seems thicker around the top and sides. In the tournament, I played against your Sheik with Lucario, and I got styled by Captain while playing Link. However, my actual mains are Shulk and Robin. If you happened to be at 4pillars on the last Sunday of July, I was the Shulk playing in the free for alls up til around 4. I didn't use Shulk at all in that tournament, but I did use Robin in my first match, beating out a Lucina. I occasionally sub as Greninja.
Speaking of which, that was a blast, although I wonder if I should have played a wider variety of characters that day
and give some of the others a few more victories. That was fun having three team battles as well, even if the last two were me against the other three. One place I know I've definitely derived some improvement from is learning to button jump rather than tap jump. UTilt is too strong to be ignored, and I couldn't use a lot of great tools with Tap Jump, such as Shulk's UTilt juggle.
Hrmm, I just went back to Monster Hunter again, I guess I'll pull back out Smash and sharpen up again. It might be hard to get there next Sunday, considering college starts up again this week, but who knows. I definitely
want to go. What time would the tourney start? Hopefully not too late...
Sheik is an interesting case, I have to recognize her strength, but I just find things aren't particularly fun with her, playing as or against her. It's too.... ugh. Bland? Easy? idk.

, I know what you mean about Melee being all smash attack, but I must confess there was also a second party there: the all specials players, which still lives on in Sm4sh around some corners. (Kirby, I'm looking at you.) My sister loved the C-Stick, I loved the B button. Since i mostly played Link in Melee, the projectiles won.
My schedule is
crowded this semester. My only real free time is 12:15 to 2:00 on TR...... Some of that being used for lunch. So, maybe a little time for smash, but not any huge amounts, barring class cancellations.
ROB isn't so hard for me as he once was. He's annoying, sure, but I'm learning. Every* character has some weakness, it just needs to be found/exploited. Bowser Jr. is annoying, but get beneath him in the air, and you're A-O.K. ROB, as you mentioned, is heavy enough to be combo food if done right. Shulk in Buster has a nice time if he can get in.
*Sheik is debatable. There are ways to mitigate certain threats, but.... Example, Shulk can use Smash Art immediately, which makes it impossible for Sheik to guarantee Dthrow -> Bouncing Fish.
EDIT: Now I notice the wall of text I made.
Anyway, other thought, should I try seeing if any of my pals from UH want to go to the tourney? Who knows, if I can't go, maybe they could. And yes, I have a developer's license. I actually posted a couple pictures on my profile feed of the work I'm doing...
