    What's your Ness playstyle?

    My playstyle is heavily dependent on my mood/mental state, which fluctuates a lot However my favorite playstyle is pkt2 heavy. Having a list of pkt2 setups is a lot like keeping a variety of cards up your sleeves; some setups are very situational but almost guaranteed, while other setups i call...

    What would ness be like if he were considered to be top tier?

    I'd say the speed I play at is at the level of/better than most less technical Ness players, even watching Octo play my Ness seems faster. I'm just really nitpicky when it comes to optimization, and I haven't been active much in the last 6 months so basic fundamentals tend to slip my mind here...

    What would ness be like if he were considered to be top tier?

    Yeah - for me, I struggle with fluidity between chaining DJC aerials (tapjump+cstick) and magnets optimally. I've spent a lot of lab time working on comboing optimally and it's just difficult for me to consistently and optimally combo with djcaerials and magnet due to the amount of inputs and...

    What would ness be like if he were considered to be top tier?

    Full optimization of Ness' tech in theory seems harder than most other characters'. Having to input three different analog stick directions (up, left/right, down) with variations in timing is the majority of it.

    What would ness be like if he were considered to be top tier?

    Agree with everything but invulnerability during PKT1 – I play a lot of games going PKT only and if I was invulnerable every time I used PKT1, I'd have a mob of pitchfork wielding smashers chasing me out of venues edit: also PKT2 doesn't need a larger hitbox, it would be really cheap IMO as it...

    What would ness be like if he were considered to be top tier?

    Couldn't agree more; once I realized his skill ceiling I kind of stopped playing him (and pm altogether) as much. Suddenly inspired to work on mastery of the character though…

    Let's talk about PM Doubles

    One thing's for sure, ness is pretty cool in doubles http://gfycat.com/WelldocumentedFocusedCollie http://gfycat.com/WavySatisfiedFishingcat

    Ness's weak spot

    Jumping into his PKT while he's recovering is the best way to edgeguard Ness for a lot of characters. This can be dangerous if you don't know exactly when he is going to PKT, failing to predict his point of recovery can result in getting PKT2'd. Sometimes it's just better to dash dance on stage...

    OK! Ness Q&A/Social Thread

    vs aerial approaches yes, don't think it's a safe option vs grounded approaches but i never opt to utilt vs a grounded approach so i could be wrong

    So how do you play Ness

    well his approach game isn't very good so you definitely need to work on spacing and only committing to an approach when you have an opening perfect your magnet skills - this is important bc it's pretty hard to do consistently but very rewarding, his magnet is essentially his own version of...

    [Aug 24, 2014] NOW WITH MELEE! Project Mindgames (And One-stock Brawl) (LaSalle, Illinois)

    If I don't have anything going on then most likely. I'd like to come back with Kev and Joey again but I don't know if they'll be willing to make the drive unless we get a bit more people ya know? Also with school starting I'm having to be more cautious about gas. I'll get it to ya one way or...

    Color me purple. I'll be at the tourney in Lisle this weekend so I dunno if I'll be able to come down there Sunday. Maybe the week after? If not then I'll keep you updated on fb whenever I plan on attending a tourney so I can get it to you.
