I'm thinking for more defensive purposes. Like luring someone into attempting a dash attack or grab then dashing away and pivot nairing instead of side B-ing or pivot grabing.

Getting that grab as Marth is better most of the time, but if you need to land a Nair, you don't have to pivot it. Actually, if you jump in the pivot animation, you'll have no momentum, and might whiff the attack. Just dash out, dash back in and SH Nair or tipper Fair.

So my little cousin drew a really crappy pic of link with the tirforce and one of her friends commented on it:

Friend: is that a nacho?

Me:

yea the the nacho of power
the nacho of wisdom
and the nacho of courage



Equal opportunity troll.

bobby- ummm..not really, no. practice dash dancing. practice changing your lengths, and getting the most length out of one dd. practice your chaingrabs on spacies, practice your out of shield game, practice your wavedashes, PRACTICE WD OOS etc.

also practice doing an aerial and then dashing away really quickly...because if you purposely misspace the aerial to make it look like they can punish it, but they really cant, then you dash away and they miss their punish and you punish them for it

LOL everything you said to practice is exactly what I've been doing. That must be a good thing.
But Im pretty much just getting bored of it because I got noone to test it on out here so I've been looking for new stuff to practice in the mean time.

O btw im slowly unlocking the true potential of dante in this silly game. surprisingly there actually is a use for just about every one of the 30+ moves that he has.

It seems like it's not too difficult to place well at MvC3. Neil will only get better and start messing people up. Grats to beast Minh, too. Tournament in Troy was fun, hopefully they feel like making a results topic =)

I don't think it's up yet, oh well.

I'm playing Spiderman, Wesker, and Sentinel now. They really compliment each other's assists.

No money and jesse backed out last min...thats a really long drive fr us too...

I think I'm going to try to organize some bi -weekly tournies with very low entry like $1 to get the community going again. I just have to find out where I can hold it and a good system for running it. I want to do some styles of tournie that aren't just double elim like crew battles etc.
