nice addition! good stuff

This is a problem then, because it sounds like players are limiting their skills. There is great experience in fighting better players, but there is also great experience in practicing with other players. I bet practicing combos, ATs, and DI with a partner would be more efficient than with the...

ha! yeah we'll have to restrict trainees to a no carb diet. As for improving reaction time, I'm sure there are plenty of drills that can do that. You just have to think of what the trainer would be doing and what the student would be doing. And then you throw in a variation so now they have to...

well sure - it only makes sense. I think everyone does that. But I really think we should be applying sports training techniques to video game or Smash Brothers training. When practicing sports, you don't just play in games...you do exercises designed to hone your skills individually so that...

I guess I'm interested in how the top players train. Do they just play the game or do they have a 'workout' regimen?

on practice, learning, and the Japanese culture I agree and would go on further to say that not only do Western players not practice, but they don't know how to practice correctly. What they call practice is likely just going through the motions. True practice involves breaking up...

that type of countering would be happening, yes - but then you are working on the weaknesses of your character and for multiple characters. More exposure to your weaknesses can make you stronger. This ruleset doesn't need to be used in a tournament, as it would be high risk for a player who...

Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday work for me, although I would be coming later on Tuesdays... well, where are you at?

eww correction - Saturday good and Sunday bad

ok cool. I can bring a setup if needed. Not available Wednesday or Saturday fyi

interesting...where was this? yeah I guess that's kind of the idea...mindgames

currently Gaithersburg, MD. I work in DC though, so I can go anywhere after work. Probably moving to Fairfax, VA in a few months, but even then I really don't mind driving wherever. I've lived from Herndon VA to Timonium MD so my brain goes on auto-pilot when getting around.

Definitely felt the most comfortable with Rob but still can't do a lot of fancy shlt. I'll work on that. Gotta keep shooting stuff in teams!

good question. Probably DDD, Diddy, or Rob...but I like the Puff for fun. I don't really like the idea of having a main for the sake of not being predictable.
