Hey,whats up fellow Samus players out their its been a while since i went to a tournament
but anyways the tournament i went to was a Gigabits LAN Center in Orlando and i didn't really know that .Long story short i got *****! by a Falco..it seems now-a-Days people only play with Falco,Fox,C.Falcon,and Marth i know their top tier and everything but **** i was the only Samus player in that tournament so every time i played a group of people were behind me watching me play. saying to their other friends "Dude come check out this Samus" and that i might be the best Samus in Florida. I didnt make this thread to brag or or boast so please don't flame me i just would like to know if their are any good Samus players in Florida who i could play to test/get advice from i'll post video's of my matches onces i get the Vid's from my friend so you guys can rate my Samus to tell me if i suck or not .

Heh
I would have been there but I had SAT's to take
Go to Florida Gaming on may 30th


Sorry but I have no advice for you, juss don't let what anyone says go to your head, always practice always improve

Being the best 'samus' or good for a 'samus' isn't good enough

I think Phanna actually just picked up the game again. ESAM is big into brawl though.

I dunno about Rohins either.

There aren't many competent samus mains to begin with. Most people just pick Fox.

Go to more. Stay on top of your game. Don't waste a good community. Short sentences.
Long story short i got *****!
>_<
people only play with Falco,Fox,C.Falcon,and Marth
Sheik is also pretty popular, so watch out for that too.
i was the only Samus player in that tournament
Lucky
are any good Samus players in Florida
http://www.smashboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=91
This is the regional zone that FL is in, so that's your best chance for finding a FL Samus player.
i'll post video's of my matches onces i get the Vid's from my friend so you guys can rate my Samus to tell me if i suck or not .

It's a little bit slow now though so sorry if no one gets to your videos right away. Personally I feel bad about the two sets of videos waiting right now.

Good luck at your next tourny.

I know the feeling of getting owned in tourneys. Back in the day when I went to alot of them I'd always get ***** by some random person, let alone the better players there. But every time I came back I'd do better and better. The best way to get good at melee is to get completely ***** in a tourney. Even if you don't know what you're doing wrong you always get some sort of subconscious experience.


Also, Florida always had awesome Samus players. I'm hoping the majority of them are going back to melee before genesis happens.

you have to have the mindset of "i can win" and "i can lose...but im pretty sure i wont"
and i treat it as a minigame. when you kill someone, you have to get their percent higher and higher when they come back before you die. My highest record is 2 stocks.
i know it sounds kinda weird...

I don't think winning is the main goal when you're an ok player - learning is.
It doesn't matter if you win or lose as long as you're learning while playing.
Ever since I learned this, all I ever do is try to learn things in match.
Sure, you can say that you learn things by trying to win, but it won't be as beneficial as simply playing to learn.
Besides, playing to learn is so much more fun than playing to win. :D
