Anything is better than a CPU. Brawl CPU...is just kinda dumb. They air dodge every time they are chucked in to the air so you pretty much know what they are going to each and every time you hit them.

Cpus are easy to read and they get punished EXTREMELY easy. If you having problems learning how to punish CPU is best bet. Once you can beat a lvl 9 without getting hit then start applying that to vs player. Kinda just make it flow. Watch the other person and think of their little tricks and find ways around it.

 

[Alus]

OK...

Why is everyone talking about CPU's?

Nope, still not much of an effective option. CPUs don't pressure you to space like a human player does.

 

[The_Altrox]

I rarely ever fight CPUs. I can take on most CPUs with any character. There is a bigger challenge online. I don't lag much (last time I checked) so it is better than CPU though not as good.
Other than that, I never play Brawl unless I have friends over, and all of my friends are = to me in skill. and I'm not great, so really, I never improve it seems.

^^^

I think we should meet somewhere.

But just two people kinda....sucks ._.

Didn't know you were in Akron. Check your PMs.

Alus - Two people practicing is what I primarily do. It gives you more time to train and also get a better feel for your character! It's some crappy advice but it's just a rough outline what you gain from just practicing with another person. Anything is better than a CPU. Brawl CPU...is just kinda dumb. They air dodge every time they are chucked in to the air so you pretty much know what they are going to each and every time you hit them.

Two people isn't that bad. The only problem is that you start adapting to the other player's habits, then may apply that to other matches.

As for CPUs, put them on level 7 or 8. They are somewhat less predictable, though you know, they're still CPUs...

 

[Alus]

Yeah I just now added that bit in my location.

Yeah, this is just the thing I want to avoid.

It is this and one other prob, Boredom, One on one with the same two people over and over can irritate.

It's not to much of a obstacle though, If you can deal with it than I can definitely deal with it.

yall playin cpus for the wrong reason

i usually just play em for control and bad DI scenarios. then again im one of the few who get better on wifi *shrug*

 

[The_Altrox]

That sounds like a good idea. My DI still sucks

 

[fromundaman]

That, practicing tech skill (what Brawl has of it anyway), spacing, kicking bad habits, and picking up certain tricks.

 

[Eddie G]

practicing tech skill (what Brawl has of it anyway)

Agreed.

spacing

Human players are so much better for this though. If anything, even wifi seems more beneficial for spacing practice than pounding at a moving sandbag (basically) that doesn't mix it up or force you to do the same.

kicking bad habits

There's no doubt in my mind that they give a player more bad habits than they could ever help kick away.

and picking up certain tricks.

Agreed.

/I'm too nitpicky lol, but it creates discussion I guess. :3

 

[fromundaman]

Hehe true, but you have good points. For spacing I guess I should be more specific. It's more of a "What move can outspace what move" thing, moreso than general spacing.

As for bad habits, ehhh... I find it easier to focus on kicking bad habits in a game situation if I start practicing it in an environment where winning is less important (AKA against CPUs.).


Wifi just messes me up TBH due to all sorts of janky **** that lag can cause, which in turn makes me change my playstyle to something that works online, but fails offline.

 

[The_Altrox]

looks like I'm gonna be busy that night... to bad. I hope to make it to Parma though for Brawl.

btw, what's King YOshi's website? I heard they uploaded videos there, and I wanted to see them.

[COHEED AND CAMBRIA]

[Bead]

I think I might be bringing a chick friend. She wants to get good at smash to impress her friends XD I told her she can come if she wants. She's a button masher XD

 

[Eddie G]

[Bead]

Is she sexy?

You decide. The one in white. I work with her XD We both naughty librarians

 

[King~]

pretty cute, bring her to argents so i can be all quiet around her <.<(lol)

bad news though

i jus talked to my mom and she like dream canceled me told me shes cleaning the carpets since its the last week before thanskgiving and we host that here <.<

so yea i cant have this at my house anymore.

if someone wants to pick up the slack ill be grateful if not its fine. this also means i wont be charging venue again, which i shouldnt have in the first place what happened was my fault and responsibilty blah blah.

if no one can i think im gonna try and go to rom(yea ive been playing melee lately and am curious to see if i just had bad expriences)

 

[Eddie G]

Meh, not bad not bad.

 

[COHEED AND CAMBRIA]

Noting wrong with a venue fee bro

 

[solecalibur]

So this is canceled ? Im not familiar with the term dream cancel

 

[King~]

yes

10snk's

 

[fromundaman]

Hmmm... Crap. I *Would* have said you could do it at my place, BUT, as I said before, I work...

I can maybe work it out if you guys don't mind it being on a Sunday instead?

 

[Alus]

This is the third time in a row that I have had something canceled in my face...

I really hope something works out.

Hmmm... Crap. I *Would* have said you could do it at my place, BUT, as I said before, I work...

I'll take a sunday.

 

[fromundaman]

Sorry, if no one else is up, namely the tourny host's, then nothing is happening.



That being said, you COULD actually call me so we can plan something this Sunday... you have my number. You're the one who canceled on me by not getting in contact, if you were talking about that.

 

[King~]

i work sunday lol

 

[solecalibur]

I'm up for something if anything comes up

 

[fromundaman]

Okay guys, since at least one person wants to show up, and I need practice, I'll host a smashfest Sunday anytime after 4 PM (Starting at 5 or 6 PM if everyone's okay with that.). Bring setups, as I only have 1. If we get enough (10 or more?) we can do a tourny too, though I kind of doubt that will happen, not to mention I have no idea how to run one, so someone who does would have to be there too.

 

[solecalibur]

I call dips on TO (unless KY comes) and Im confirmed to go and I'll see if anyone else wants to come

 

[Alus]

If you host I will be there...

I wonder who would be willing to travel ._.

 

[Framerate]

I don't even know what day this is on.....

 

[King~]

it was supposed to be today but that didnt happen

if ur still in town next week frame come to steves tourney in parma 8D
