Swordplay

All I could say is, you really know how to pressure the opponent(s). I literally had to change my play style against you, as I think you noticed at the end.

Read your post. Get on wifi.

Come to Link chat whenever you have time, I want to talk with you.

Ah ok.
Yeah people there are surprised that I can actually CG lol.
I probably grab TOO much though.

And I hate g&w almost as much as i hate MK and Falco.

I did much better than I thought I would do.
I beat money in the first round. I beat Arty in the second round (I won a whole stock with just Popo!). I lost to some DK (how does this happen REPEATEDLY?!?!). I beat a Ness, then lost to Ryzen. He was much smarter than me.
I don't know what place I got yet...

Did Stig use his ICs? I didn't really watch him play, I just knows he uses them...

Yeah I'll try to remember to link the matches to you when he uploads them.
I don't think I can go to the next tourney either because of work
But yeah, we definitely need to play next time...

How'd you do in the tourney?

He was my doubles partner.
His brawl name is Retro. He should be in my list of friends...
I didn't get to play you in singles D:

Don't know what you're talking about. I wasn't at the tourney. Finals suck

Thanks Bobby. And yeah, I know link sucks, but I also main him because i love LoZ

could you send me a link to the thread?

yeah, sorry about that. I couldn't go because my family was going on vacation for christmas and we needed to leave at 7 and my parents were worried I wouldn't make it home in time. It was so rediculous and unexpected but I couldn't really make it... How'd you do?

Just showing why I got pissed.

Search function is epic fail unless you know pretty much EXACTLY what you're looking for, it's so time consuming, you could have just made the thread, got a little discussion, if its known let it die, if not good, by the time you go through all possibly searches. Search function is next-to-useless if you don't know what you're looking for.

Not taking it out on you, I'm sure you saw the metagame discussion thread right after you posted that, hence the "Ignore that.", but I'm proving a point. Making a new thread out of being excited/finding a new or interesting fact/trying to bring something LESS KNOWN and make it MORE KNOWN happens to the best of us.

I mean, you run the Q&A, you're first thought when posting that is "should I post this in the Q&A", but you didn't. You realize you didn't, and you acknowledge that you didn't, which only further proves my above point. Also, things like that when posted in the Q&A or metagame discussion, only get talked about for a page, if that before they are forgotten about again, or not cared for.

IMO, Q&A's should stick to questions, if the answers "no", threads should be made, and the metagame discussion should stick to things EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT, not "what may be" a discovery.

I've posted some things in metagame discussions, that simply dissapear off the face of the earth. That's why I run the Snake Metagame thread like I do, I post things to test/people post things to test, and it's all in the first post. Easy to find, easy to check, nothing, nothing get's overlooked or missed.

Also, Arkive doesn't have to be a **** to me for no god**** reason. I've made like 5 threads about things? 2 of them were "deemed useless" by everyone but me, I still use it to this day with my Link, and I've even won 2 of my King of WiFi matches due to using them. But you know, "They're useless"..... For my other 3 threads, it was the bomb thread - only known by Sasook it seemed like. I sure as hell had no clue about it, and I'm sure many of the other Link Main's had no **** clue about it. The edgedropped bomb edgeguard is actually USEFUL for Link, and I've already started to incorperate it into my game, in fact I've stagespiked a few Falco's and Fox's thanks to it. It's made those two matchups quite a bit easier for me.

For the Grab Release stuff, it's ALWAYS nice to know you have those options. If you see the Wario make a mistake and Jump Break, thats a free move and possibly KO. But as always, it's deemed "useless" by seemingly everyone.

My BACL (which was highly overlooked) was also deemed "non-practical" and "Border-line useless" but guess what. I pull off a BACL (or just a boomerang arrow lock, not arrow canceling) AT LEAST 3 times a MATCH when I'm Link. If it's so god**** "impractical" how come I pull it off nearly every game? I even pull it off MULTIPLE TIMES in the King of WiFi battles.

It's also a GUARENTEED % or KO at ANY % because of the special knockback of the Gale Boomerang, and the locking affect of an arrow. You can BACL > run Up > Jump Cancel Up-B. Guess what, Up-B is almost ALWAYS fresh, and I get this at the edge OFTEN. I get KO's at around 70% thanks to the BACL, where otherwise the match would go to 140%, possibly 160%. But you know, it's "useless and impractical".

I'm just sick of the Link Boards being so closed minded, I never see them accept anything new and hence the metagame really doesn't evolve much. If you ever took a look at the Snake Boards, you'd see why I'm a Snake BRoomer, why I'm the "Snake President" and all of the neat **** I find and do for them, how "outside the box" I think.

But nope. No Link mains do that. That's why I'm leaving.

/end rant.

sup bro, its me Megafalcox88. ^_^
Link FTW!!!!

Oh, I have finals the week after the tournament, so I doubt I'll be at it.

Thanks. Your Link is pretty amazing. Are you going to the next tourney?

Hey, remember me? I was the Marth/MK player at the tourney. I was playing friendlies with you until I had to leave early. Epic friendlies lol

Ah ok. That's kind of far then.
Well hopefully I'll see you at the Jan. 10 one!

That sucks...

Oh yeah, I couldn't get to that unfortunately.


Can you come to this one: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=208561?

HAHAHA that's basically taking away the only thing the ICs have.
Nothing but blizzards lol.

Do you go to school in Illinois?

Yeah fersure.
I'm still in high school so that's not a problem.

I've already worked on the CG timing for Link lol.
Now the problem is those bombs...

I go back to college the mon after. It will be tight but I might be able to make it. I'd hope to see you there!

Hey I'm glad you found me.
Are you going on Jan. 10?

I have swimming practice from 8-11 this morning and I don't feel like going to doubles right afterward, so you don't have to come to that anymore. My friends and I will probably get there about 4 or something to play some friendlies or w/e but once we all drop out we're leaving... there's no way I'm staying there until midnight....

Fine by me.

Ok, mmmm how about 5-8pm ?

tell me friday whether you'll make it or not. If not, we can still have epic dittos IRL instead of on crappy WiFi. :D

Doubles are at 1 pm and Singles are at Five until Midnight. I doubt they'll last that long and that doubles will last 3 hours anyway. -__-

hey swordplay , can you battle me ?

less then a wekk until tournament time ^_^

LMAO I know bombs ftw

GG's dude, u bomb spammer...jk

Depends on who you think you're better with. IMO Kirby with Eruption is much better than shield breaker, but Marth is a much safer character because he's pretty good. It doesn't really matter to me, maybe we can test things out on the day of the tournament.

Marth and Kirby works pretty well and so does Ike and Kirby. It all depends on your preferenence. I personally would want to play Kirby during doubles because Kirby w/ Ike' Eruption or Marth's Shield Breaker is ****.

What do you think?

That would be pretty awesome to play dubs with you. :3

Problem is, I'm already partners with my friend Keys (Lucas player who I play lots), but seeing as this is a special ocassion I'm sure he'd understand. For doubles, what character combination works for you? (We're not going double Links!!! ) I play Kirby, Wolf, and possibly Falco, if need be.

Awesome, man.

Chances are I'll be able to attend as well. I hope it doesn't take as long as they say it will because not that many people are going to sign up and there's like a 6 hour waiting period between singles and doubles. :/ I definately won't wait that long for singles, but if it starts quickly after doubles ends I'll enter both. I won't be repping Link if there's no singles either. :O

I will be around for winter break. I might even be able to make this. Exciting......

There's going to be a tournament in Aurora, IL on December 20th for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It's about 45 minutes from where I live and about an hour from the Chicagoland area. Here's a link to the thread: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=207173
So, if you're in town for winter break, make sure to come if you can!
