I set mine up to make it so that no finger/thumb is used for two things at once. For example if I take jump off of my right thumb I can execuse 2 special attacks in one tap jump than I could if my thumb had to go from the jump button (x) to the attack button(s) (a or b). For this reason I smash...

You're on smash boards man, we're all "that guy" relative to Yahtzee. Someone made a comparison to the Halo boards vs. Yahtzee early on. To reference an earlier Yahtzee "The wii only knows like 3 or four songs and the Xbox 360 frequently comes onto the stage drunk." Nintendo Fanboys > Halo...

Link was my old main and is again because he feels like a control freak and puzzle solver. When you truly out think someone you drag them around the stage and toss them into bombs and truly shame any attempt they make to hit you. But in competitive tournies he feels sluggish and unresponsive if...

Yeah jeez, it's not about thinking. But seriously, am I the only one who thinks this has true merit as a religious tenant or at least monastic order? We should begin a Smash League dedicated to the worship of the one true god on earth and we will become the ultimate league of smashers for we...

I prefer his speed, priority and reach to Toon Link's floaty aversion to gravity. This is the only reason I forgive him for the Gale Boomerang and Hook Shot nerf. Melee Link could recover from any vertical spike if he had a solid vertical wall (like fourside) and the backstroke of the boomerang...

WoW boards this way -----> Thar be smash boards here. This was a funny idea for a thread whose discussion I commend, but please don't let this drift into the WoW class OP debate. Pit's tactical discussion board should not be cluttered by discussion over patch 2.4 and "omg nerf vanish...

Every time I try to jump off the tether it sucks me into the ledge first. can you jump off it straight from impact like in melee or do you have to get to the edge before jumping off.

*would raise hand, but his friends glued it to the controller when he was the first to pass out at the release party and hasn't found any reason to make with the paint thinner yet (it's really quite convenient)*

Rockmace, well played. I have often wanted to try to make those "bottom tier" characters viable but just never had the balls to do it on a competitive level. As it turned out my main(s) in Melee focused on the distinct character types. I mained Link and was respectfully good at Pikachu and...

lol! lots of hammers and lockdown and achieving relatively little? Someone has to make a video of the ice climbers bubble hearthing now.

Diddy Kong prior to a side B: hey... hey... hey guess what, guess what... hey guess what Diddy Kong immediately after a sid b: You got a monkey on your face! (this is usually followed by "DOOOOH!" and then "...its funny cause its true") In melee, Mewtwo's forward throw was always followed by...

I'm studying in depth on a few characters to decide my main. Link was my main in Melee (somewhat by accident) because I fell in love with using the boomerang's backstroke for mind games. Here's a short compilation of useful strategies I've found and implemented. Most of the following is common...

I don't have a video of this but I've noticed in dinking around in training mode that the boomerang can consistently take someone from any edge camp spot off the edge. The pull is based on their position in the tornado, so if they're in the top (like say if the boomerang is angling down under...

I can't speak for you, but I almost never C-stick smash as link. The overall thumb motion required to alternate between c-stick and smash A depending on whether I want to use his second stroke in the smash or charge it up first if I'm countering a person who does a lot of side dodge just isn't...
