A Lesson In Humility

^this applies to so many people it's not even funny. And it makes a great point. On the inside, we're all little T-rexes who think we're the best smashers ever

 

[harriettheguy]

I'm so f***ing humble

 

[Equi]

Humility never gets you anywhere in competetive. I've learned from smash that playing too humbly got me no where, it wasn't until I started to want to destroy my opponent's soul during matches that I improved.

Of course, I still love everyone outside the game. But once the match starts, I only think about destroying my opponent. Thanks to Afro for teaching me this.

no way, I'm way more humble than you!

There's a fine line between soul crushing and cockiness though, you have to be careful.

 

[Master Raven]

I don't like to be cocky in general, but generally you DO want to just focus on nothing but obliterating your opponent. That is how you improve and that is how you will help to improve others as well, and I can tell you for certain that I learned that the hard way in my early days.

 

[Kagesekan]

Of course. The idea here is to not have more ego than skill.

Also, I just posted this for ****s and giggles. But inevitably someone will take it as a challenge and drama will ensue, much to Gmoney's amusement

 

[Equi]

Haha yeah I get ya, you don't want to have an egoic personality about it but when playing in your mind you want to do nothing more but obliterate your opponent. It's just funny you posted this thread because I just learned this recently.

 

[Kagesekan]

Man, i just like dinosaurs

 

[Hai Im Fearless]

When I have money on the mind I play the best (Fast1). Earlier rounds and teams sways me from such a mindset.

 

[Kagesekan]

Fearless, you should def add me to your list of MMs won in your sig.

 

[Hai Im Fearless]

Eh there's more I could add but it kind of defeats the purpose of the sig.. well there isn't really a purpose but it was pretty epic you should have been there G MONEY ACTUALLY MADE A COMPLIMENT TO MY SKILL ON THAT DAY

 

[Eight 52]

That wasn't a money match, you gave fearless five dollars so he'd play you.

I'm not harsh, just realistic~

Actually yeah, that was a **** move.

 

[Hai Im Fearless]

I'd have played you anyway >.<

<3 money tho. I gave 5 of it for extra gas money and 5 of it to loto so I could ride shotgun

 

[Equi]

I'll MM you fearless.

 

[Equi]

Oh btw. WOLF NEVER LOSES TO OLIMAR! EVERRRRRRRRR!

 

[Hai Im Fearless]

Turns out I actually like money sorry man won't MM you.

 

[Equi]

Aw shucks!

I was hoping for cheesy fries!

 

[Master Raven]

Fearless when we finally meet I'll MM your Olive with my DK.

I went into that knowing i'd lose but I wanted to see the matchup. I'm glad he dropped it from $20 though because I didn't want to duck out in front of everyone, $10 is an acceptable loss

I'd have played you anyway >.<

Good to see it went to a good cause. I definitely want more matches with you whenever I can get them. Playing Gmoney is how I got to the level I'm at now and I think the more good players I practice against, the better I'll do in general.
