Act 3 Clear!!: Sonic Tournament Results & Discussion Thread

[da K.I.D.]

. . . . . . Waffle

had to play sonic dittos vs this kid in tourney, he actually took me to game 3.

first two matches were obviously FD, and last match was obviously on pictochat.

i won the last match with the most amazing ending ever.
i f smashed him at 150 from the left side of the stage, he flew alll the way to the right, hit the face as it gets drawn to start blowing the wind, bounces all the way back to the left side of the stage, into my bair. its was the most cash-est thing ive ever done on that stage.

 

[Vermanubis]

i 3 stock verm almost every time i play him I'm sure he could beat him if i told him what to do vs him. His ganon is great but still it's ganon vs sonic -.-.

We've never even played...

Also, thanks, Wedge. I appreciate that, man!

No lie, absolutely epic finish. If I'm going to lose a game, that's the way I want it done.

 

[Espy Rose]

KID's obviously never played tennis with Pictochat's spike walls.

 

[Kinzer]

It feels more like Soccer and Boxing if anything. =P

 

[da K.I.D.]

I did that to him in that match too lol. but the followups werent as sweet as the wind face ending.

also, TGS is improving very quickly, I expect to be about as good as trent in the next couple months.

 

[B.A.M.]

lol vermanubis has never even played kid craft lol.

You may want to fix that chief, unless it wasn't a typo when you said Trent > you right now. :/

Either way I'd still be lost. I don't know where to put you, your "apprentice" or Trent. I only know that I have respect for you three regardless, just because-

Sonic.

*Fist pump*

I do know that Wednesday, I'll find out where you and I stand among each other.

If I'm Goggles' "Apprentice" can we start calling me "Starkiller"?

 

[da K.I.D.]

in terms of sonics that go to tourneys, trent is probably fifth best atm.

But when did I ever say he was better than me?

 

[Kinzer]

Read your post, VERY carefully Goggles. :X

Sure, why not chief?

 

[da K.I.D.]

i still dont get your meaning...

I say tommy will be as good as trent soon. Im still better than Trent. so... i dont get it.

hmm...is this wut you guys mean?

 

[Espy Rose]

Graped.

 

[NH Cody]

I think he meant to say "I expect HIM to be about as good as trent in the next couple months."

 

[da K.I.D.]

Should have copy/pasted Poltergust's post, bellsprout and all, and added Kirk.

Power outage caused 3 way split. Bracket explains everything else.

1. San -40$
1. Cura -40$ :random:
1. PikaPika! -40$
4. Tiger (Dr. Grandpa)
5. James G
5. K.I.D.Goggles
7. Moss
7. Angel

I beat angel with Sheik just to embarrass him.
If the majority of warios play like this dude angel, I might just make a pocket shiek my full time counterpick vs wario. God, it was SOOOOO free...

Dr.g and pika both went all mk on me. and san told me that he might go mk in doubles if he we cant beat somebody.

Our region is finally becoming legit... lol
funny and sad...

I just need to fight massive amounts of Snake and Metaknight right before every tourney I go to...

K.I.D.Goggles. 5th. Sonic/Falco

I also got 5th in melee... Im turnin into SonicMaster5th over here...

 

[~TBS~]

...KID. We cant have that. Besides, you placed higher than 5th before, so you can never pull a SM5th.

 

[Trent]

Espy you gonna be at Phase 14?

 

[Espy Rose]

Most likely not.
I think my next OoT MIGHT be HOBO28, but I cannot promise a **** thing.

My tournaments upcoming are Smash Con Queso here in town (SA), KoK @ Kingsville, and then smaller in-city events.

Phase 14 is on the same day as KoK, and we've already decided to go to the Kingsville one, so Phase14 is pretty much a huge NOPE.

Again, HOBO28. There's a teensy chance, but it's there.

 

[Trent]

Doubt I'll be at HOBO. But I'm about 70% sure I'm gonna be at Phase.

 

[Espy Rose]

So, I just got back from a local.

Got 4th. I gave UTD Zac free wins with a repeat of HOBO28 in Winner's (I SD'd twice in both games, both near 0%). Then I lost to Trela.

I felt like Rockettrainer up in there. I tripped so many times at this tournament. It was infuriating. Tripping into Lucario's bair was oh so fun.

Trela is tough...played him at apex and i just camped like crazy. Didnt halp though.

fffffffff beat Zac pls.

 

[Espy Rose]

Well, I'm starting to get very comfortable with the match up despite losing. I managed to beat him several times in friendlies, so I'm confident that I'll beat him some time soon.

The aura will always be annoying, so you just gotta work around it.

And yeah, I gotta stop giving Zac the win. He's like the only one I SD'd against at this tournament.
Oh wait, never mind. I also SD'd against Trela on my last stock.

I keep telling myself to Homing Attack so I can recover, but I forget a lot.
Maybe if I actually starting playing before a tournament, I'd get used to not SDing so much. Lol.

Aura =/
its not even that, he's just plain crazy. those reads he had on me was O_O

lol you'll win, u da bess. sd's suuucks. how did you do vs zac despite the sd's?

 

[Espy Rose]

First match went to last hit pretty much. Second match he was at 120-ish% on his second stock.
I can handle him no problem, but the SDs really don't help.

Trela does have crazy reads, but he also has patterns in his game that are easy to read.
The problem I have against Trela aside from the aura is that I'm failing to consistently punish the reads I make. That roll is fast and has only a tiny opening for punishment that I can't seem to get right, and Lucario's aerial coverage makes dealing with him while airborne a pain in the ***.

Either way though. I'm confident that I'll take them down next time I play them.

[Exceladon City]

Good sheeee Arikie. It's safe to say you're better than me.

If I played Krystedez, it would a quick 2-0 and I'd walk away like "Welp, I expected that."

I should've mm'ed Cook at Siis3. I wanted play some other Olimars. I'm pretty good at the MU so it would've been pretty fun playing him.

i think we as sonics need to work on getting lucario offstage more.

also, espy, you might not want to really HA against GaW, also, make sure you keep moving.

 

[Kuraudo]

Meanwhile while Lucario is off stage we eat a FAir or UAir when trying to edge guard them. lol

No clue what you're talking about, KID.

I'm dead serious BTW... Pretty much the only way you can edgeguard Luc unless you got them hard-reads.

 

[da K.I.D.]

i played kin with my lucario and hes right, you can also beat his fair with ours but its much harders and requires much tighter spacing.

also, kin, where can I get that pic, itss soooo good, i feel like ima need that on hand for quick reference lol
