Shouldn't you hope that your character isn't ranked very high when you know he's solid?

Why read anything when you can skip straight to calling people idiots on the internet. People are comparing the strengths and weaknesses of a team. If they feel compelled to use other characters' strengths and weaknesses as a reference, it makes sense. The entire point of this is to evaluate...

This might be more of a AT question, but how far should a shield slide work and how far should marth's throw reach when he does it? I'd read that the jump-cancelled sliding grabs from melee were gone, but that the shield sliding grabs are supposed to be a suitable replacement. I'm either doing...

My doubles partner mains Ike. We find that it works really well. The two are both very complimentary; Lucario can keep active hitboxes up around Ike with *.airs and support him with charged aura spheres, and ike can lend a lot of disjointed hitboxes to the otherwise stubby lucario. The only...

You have never been to Thailand, sir.

I pretty much never F.smash or U.smash because I feel entirely compromised being stuck in those animations, regardless of how good the moves actually are. I'll use them If I'm spaced really advantageously and I want to leave a meaty hitbox out for people to land on or run into, but most of the...

f.air or d.tilt. ******** utility and speed on both.

Just curious to see if anyone had any weekly casuals or tourneys going. I'm still really new to brawl and need all the play I can get. I'm in north dallas.

Anyone in the Plano/North Dallas/Carrollton area?

Wherever internet forums about competitive games exist, I will be there to argue and pretend I know what the hell I'm talking about.

I take it the tier list and meta-game created in less than a year are both infallible.

In melee, I mained Marth and kept Mewtwo as my standby. In Brawl, I main Luc and standby marth. I'm still very new to Brawl, but I was extremely familiar with Melee, so it shouldn't take too long to get used to all the new AT's and start rocking Luc at tournaments properly. I'm mostly...

I don't think that's true at all. They just have different strengths out of the box. meta-game progression, player creativity, stages, and several other variables make for just as strong a case in lucario's favor. You never know until you rough it out in the ring. :)

When I say that I play Marth defensively and my Lucario offensively, I'm stating sheer aggressive and uninterrupted/difficult-to-guess-or-interrupt presence of attacks in a single volley. Lucario has longer volleys of attacks and options that branch out, whereas marth will be fairly...

Marth has been my main for as long as I've been playing smash, but when Brawl came out I didn't like him as much and dropped him down to my second, and picked up Lucario. I have to admit I find myself spacing similarly and using very similar f.air combos and u.tilt combos. the utility, depth...
