    Nipple Spikes 1 - Results Thread

    GGs everyone. I kind of wanted to make this a surprise appearance and proof that I'm still a force to be reckoned with in the upstate NY Brawl scene (even though I've been inactive for well over a year now), but I unfortunately brought with me a performance hardly worth mentioning. I was also...

    Upstate New York Tournament Thread

    Yeah, I noticed the spot dodge is still there after watching the trailer a second time. And yeah, I have no idea how that squat-duck defensive move works, lol. I still want to play Brawl and be a part of this scene! We would need to find a way to generate mass appeal across upstate NY...

    Upstate New York Tournament Thread

    The way I usually approach Smash, or any other fighting game for that matter, is to play with the whole roster, then use who fits my playstyle the best and also the one I feel I will be able to reach the highest possible level of success with. In Brawl, Lucario fits that criteria. In this game...

    Upstate New York Tournament Thread

    Hmm, let's see, my thoughts on Smash 4 so far... First of all, I'm pretty excited to see Mega Man made the cut this time around. He's a very iconic character and I have some great memories playing some of his games growing up. Villager is a nice addition as well. Wii Fit Trainer, however...

    Upstate New York Tournament Thread

    I won't be making the upcoming Dustbowl, guys. I have work 1-9:30 on Saturday and it just makes more sense for me to work for guaranteed money that will most likely be fairly close to the first place Brawl payout, rather than hoping my washed up self can have a good, consistent outing (and even...

    Upstate New York Tournament Thread

    Can we unban Meta Knight so I actually have a chance of beating a Marth player? :laugh: Nah, jk. Solo Lucario is gonna get it done.

    Upstate New York Tournament Thread

    Ah yes, somehow, again, due to unforeseen circumstances, the friendly matches that JamesG win inexplicably disappear, lol. Maybe we weren't playing on the recording Wii (though, I thought we were, who knows honestly, it was a long day). No biggie, I liked the way I played in those matches and...

    Dustbowl V: Back to basics

    That's what I feel happens in a region over time. All the top players in the region start to understand each other's playstyle and characters, and then matches may get closer and closer to a point where it can become a matter of who is playing well at that particular time, or who can properly...

    Dustbowl V: Back to basics

    Polar deserves massive props for coming out of nowhere and beating me twice in tournament. I'm still convinced that if I can just get a bit better, and develop my knowledge on specific matchups, then I will be competing for first place soon. Of course, that would probably take some time and...

    Dustbowl V: Back to basics

    Well I do understand the sort of things he is capable of, and there are some aspects of the character that I find to be a bit overwhelming, but we're in a situation where I feel a tournament scene is gradually dying down, at least in this area, and banning a character that a few of our good...

    Dustbowl V: Back to basics

    I'd be down for MK legal tournies again. I want to face everybody at their best and I'm pretty confident with the matchup all the way until the point where I, you know, get knocked off the stage. I might have to resort to some secondary help soon anyways. :cool:

    Dustbowl V Back to Basics! March 2nd! - March 2nd, 2013 - Syracuse, Ny

    GGs everyone. I think this was a learning lesson for me showing how helpless you can feel without having a reliable secondary to fall back on. I don't think I had a bad performance by any means but I expected better out of myself and I know others did as well. I'll try to be more involved with...

    BattleCry: MAX! Results Thread

    Interesting results there. I want to play Limit one day, and how the hell does Cura keep getting up here from South Carolina to play in these things?! Lol.

    Battle Cry MAX - MAJOR CHANGES! - One Day Event! - Venue Fee Reduced!

    The chances of me going are getting slimmer and slimmer. I hope I can make some last minute changes to at least participate in singles. Otherwise, things aren't looking good guys. :(
