    I see what you did thar.

    Still, how can I help that? Does it not become a thought-process thing at a point?

    It's not that you get a guaranteed follow up if you ps the bair. However, if he hits your shield with a bair he gains at least a small advantage. You are at a few frames disadvantage because you have to shield the bair and get out of shield. Your shield also gets damaged and you risk getting shield poked in the next exchange. Your pressured a little and Jiggs can move about freely.

    Remember that you can do anything out of a powershield, including dash. If you ps the bair, your shield doesn't get damaged and you also aren't at as much of a disadvantage frame-wise. If he does a full hop bair, you can powershield the bair and dash out. This will put you under puff which I always thought was a good position to jump and bair her. At the very least it gives you the opportunity to get under her and regain control of the center.

    If the matches were already close then it might help turn the tables.

    More importantly, it gives you another tool to incorporate into your strategy.

    So I saw the results of TO6, and just wanted to say good job.
    I wanna see the vids, and good job winning that Falcon tourney :p
    Much more important than the others.
    lord karn
    PP, imagine powershielding a jiggs bair, then dash out of the powershield under the jiggs and jump and bair/nair. Perhaps you shall beat hbox if you can do this!?!??!?!

    Are you able to delete posts? Post #3 in my tournament thread is an advertisement to a game convention. The guy has been super banned, so... yeah.

    Sigh. I want to go D*: I'd suck hard but still...i wouldnt care. If some kid is going to trash talk me because I cant play a video game better than him I'll just ask him what he does when he gets home. What hobbies he has, what skills and just see how rounded he is.

    I want to have fun again.

    I want to get Starcraft 2 and play Halo Reach and Black Ops and meddle in SSF4 and just have fun.

    Im 16. Im grounded from electronics. Im getting my liscence and I want to go to melee stuff. Maybe Brawl, if I do go brawl i will prolly just camp or ledgecamp.

    I see your a moderator now! Congratz! I am so psyched for some tourneys or something. I actually really suck hard big hairy catepillars at melee. BUT I WILL GET BETTA!

    Yea my tech skill has been pretty off lately, I have no cube to practice with. And yea that dthrow was a technical error also. Meant to be a fthrow. Yay told me alot of the same things and i tried to apply them, but i didn't do as good a job the 3rd match. Bad habits. And where should i have been wding out of shield?

    I know this has less to do with the stage and more to do with the players, but I keep thinking of Pound 3 final kill by Mango. It was because of the stage that M2k was forced into that position of the standing tech, and Mango took advantage of that into the rest that killed him, which was the final kill and made a ridiculously good video. Any other map really wouldn't have provided the same opportunity.
    Personally I view it as trying to lock your opponent into a certain area/mindgame, and stages help me do that. By the way the stages are, you naturally play differently on them, and I try to use that to my advantage.

    Because of the way the games are played upon the stage. Things that happen on Corneria, for instance, couldn't happen on DL64 because of the way the stage is. Now I suppose it doesn't always HAVE to happen there, but it's the inspiration that comes from those stages that you take with you. But you're right it doesn't provide focus, because that's the purpose of a stage: to provide an good, efficient place for things to happen. I don't like Brawl because the stages do try to provide focus, especially with the ones that attack/mess with the game. (Had to break into 2 posts)

    No, because half of the competition of smash IS the creativity. Do you think it would've lasted this long without it constantly changing, convulting, and mutating like it has? I mean, about 2 years ago, the entirety of the smash scene was different. New things have been explored, strategies have been changed, characters have risen and fallen due to metagame changing/enhancing, and stages are just parts of that.
    What I'm trying to say is if we only use neutrals that's like everyone using fox and fox only in tournaments. That's just not cool.
    0Room
    I've heard that before, but to me that's just how the stages work. Fox really doesn't have any bad stages, I mean honestly that's just something you keep in mind when picking stages.

    But as Josh prophesized, he wants to see the day where no more counter picks and just Neutral stages are played. I think that's just terrifying. That defeats the purpose of the game, I think.
    0Room
    Yeah but I mean stage picking is a huge part of the Smash Bros metagame in my opinion, and obscure counter picks sometimes give the lesser experienced player [like me] the advantage, due to their extensive knowledge of the stage.

    Just because some people don't play Pokefloats [for example] doesn't mean it should be banned.
