Cactuar is ridiculous with the kicking-my-***-while-not-finishing-combos-as-best-as-he-can. >.<

I've just started to get JC shines out of shield down and I've come up with a nasty new approach tactic. Come to the biweekly so I can show you. :lick:

Haha. I'm going on a ski trip this weekend. There needs to be a fest or something going on the weekend after. If not, you should come to my place in Philly for the weekend so we can practice and such.

I just watched the first video and I have to say that was some pretty sick playing on the parts of both players.

Reik's Falco is pretty awesome; I really liked that shine-to-b-air around 1:36. Very, very creative and very, very nasty (I don't see things like that pulled off very often). Cactuar, your Marth is pretty pimp. You definitely can tech-chase the hell outta somebody. Lol.

Great vid.

Very nice videos Cactuar; your Marth is very quick and impressive. Now if only you didn't live so far away...

Yeah I was thinking the same thing Drephen. I fear your randomizer may be broken! =P

Nonetheless, very entertaining matches. Punk is a great song, never gets old.

Cactuar, if I had one possible hint of advice; when you were chain grabbing him/utilting him in very nice combos near the edge, once he got to around sixty percent you tended to jump into him with a nair which would some times lob him back into the middle of the stage. I would say continue pushing him off the stage with fairs seeing as how the possibility of edge guarding him properly outweighs him possibly getting a pillaring combo on you.

Usually I end with a nair because I'm too high off the ground/he's in too much of an awkward place to continue pushing with fair land fair. As for him going back into the stage, I just wasn't being very attentive with my spacing for the nair, thus him being sent the opposite direction.

Also, there were matches on other stages. We just decided to use the FD ones :laugh:

eh? matches between reik's ness vs ryoko coming out?
good matches, amazing gameplay on both parts. How did you dodge his thingy where he dash dances behind you and grabs you. Your dodge lasted like ultra long, reik hacks...

Cactuar hacks way worse. He grabs me when I'm clearly behind him ALL the time. Also, did you not notice the combo into a reverse F-smash? Lol.

And he can air dodge out of my shine -> D-air -> U-tilt combo if it's a really low percent even if I do it perfectly! My combos on Non-Cactuar Marths are so much better. xD

Nonsense. There's no such thing.
Only in New Jersey.

Other than seeing FD great matches guys.

Until Cactuar starts chain grabbing perfectly FD will be boring. All I kept seeing was Cactuar full jump bair/fairing then fast falling a down air back and forth. I'm not saying it's bad or something, but I just would have liked to see more variety than FD FD FD FD. Reik you definitely improved since I last saw you, which was a while ago, so that's only to be expected. Cactuar, I hope your hair is still relatively long, that is all.

Reverse fsmashes with Marth are the best.

Lol @ someone mentioning how Cactuar beat me last Gauntlet. Silly kids.

Falco deserves every grab landed on him, especially grabs in succession for 40% or so.

You may have, and I just noticed it every time, not like there is too much else you can do on FD, I'm not saying it was bad/badly repetetive, it's just something that stuck out.

Also, I think we all know what that means for this girl.

No one there looked even slightly like Cactuar.

Arcturus looks only like a Keanu Reeves wannabe, not the real ****ing thing.

That's so gay that you can escape that. Great matches though. Sexy finish on the third one.
