billy is an elite player.
the scrubs in your pool will be owned by QAC
Janitor, you have the two most experienced Pikachu mains in AL disagreeing with you on this one. No offense, but I think we know Pikachu better.

Seriously, most people know to jab or use a long lasting move to combat QAC. It has very little priority. And even if they don't know that, QAC does very little on its own to win a match. I think it's like 2% or something each time it hits. I might use it to lead into an uair to FF fair combo, but that isn't QAC-based or even QAC-dependent. All it does is get me in closer in that situation. QAC is too easily punished to be the key to winning a match like you are suggesting.

It's still useful though for getting in close, retreating, or recovering. It also sometimes makes people get frustrated and start playing recklessly, leaving them open for punishment.

pools take too long. Yesterday at waba they had 32 entrants, and the tourney ran smoothly without pools. If we get more that 30 ppl i guess we can do pools, but i'd rather get the show on the road if, you know what i mean...

True, but I don't really want people to only play 2 sets at the minimum before they get out.

Well I guess they could do friendlies and MMs, but still.

Every had a really **** good day? The kind of a day where you find a $100 bill on the ground at the gas station pump?

On a related note, I'll be at Montgomery.

I enjoy brawl. I love the game. I have fun playing brawl against the computer. thats how much i love it. What I dont love is the community.
I am making (mostly) drunk posts on a random website about mario and pikachu.
this community is dumb and scrubby. This thread is silly. i have nothing against anyone, and mostly think several of the people here are nice. I dont know who Roxy is are or where you came from. I have bad fingers.
that's really all you need to know about me. take it or leave it.
i dont know what you're trying to accomplish by telling ME about ME.
you're a scrub, stop hating the community when you're one of the people making it bad.

i'm from ga btw

obviously i don't mean just use QAC and thats it, geezus.

QAC goes into pikachu's aerials, which are all good. and its very tricky even for experienced players. if the move sucked that much why did you spend 100 hrs practicing it.

it doesn't matter how much you know pikachu. I could pick pikachu, a character who i never play, and 2-0 my pool using nothing but QAC tricks.

im not trying to explain to you how to play pikachu. you guys are completely missing the point as always. jesus.

lol at you not caring about the brawl community, then swearing up and down you were working for five months getting new techs when you started. Yeah dude, I obviously wanted to win this thread. I want the virginity's of all the alabamians for skewering your idiocy on a stick.

Obviously.

Because that's exactly what I said when I said I wanted to figure out your problem with the smash community, and your problem with playing the game in general, when positively talking to you isn't going to help. I'm not even going to be sarcastic, that's not what I want in the least dude. You keep saying I'm not listening to what you're saying. But your POV hasn't changed either. I mean **** dude, I'll go as far as to say.

Your bad fingers johns are legit.

But guess what dude, you're still playing brawl lol. Most tech skill is simple in brawl, especially snake (i mean, b button + shield button = AWESOME TECH LOL). If that's seriously the only problem you have, then you're just making excuses for yourself.

@ winnar and munkus, in all honesty, you guys are consistently *******s to me and i never really even said or did anything to you ever. I dont really appreciate it, but I suppose you don't care or you wouldn't randomly be douchebags for no reason.

When I said "i want to figure out your problem"

but nah

i just wanna win this thread.
roxy.
stfu
and leave me alone. im begging you.
nothing you are saying makes sense.
i forgot its not possible to care about something, and later stop caring about it.
is that really that hard a concept?
do not try to figure out my problem. I have already told you it. several times.
btw, you don't 'help' someone by insulting and belittling someone.
i know my problem. leave me a lone. im begging you. stop talking to me.

The move doesn't suck, but it is more of a helper skill than a beat my pool skill. It's like saying uair will wreck my pool because it's the move that will lead into nair or fair. If I was going to beat my pool, Pikachu's combos would help me more than QAC. I practice it because it is quite useful for approaching and retreating, but it also can get you punished hard if you mess up or even go to a bad spot with it.

If you think you can beat your whole pool by picking a character you never play, then be my guest. Your ignorance of the Pikachu metagame shows though if you think you can beat a whole pool with nothing but QAC tricks.

This is just getting into semantics now. Feel free to respond, but I'm done arguing about it.

.__. after playing through a bit of Rachel's story, I really want to pick her up. She's....low tier in the next game though I think. ;P and bah Litchi is way too technical for me to try and pick up right now, Nu would just be a better answer.

Oh and my fellow Touhou friends. <.<;; how does one install the updated fighter? I forgot the order.

Rachel is not low tier. She's in her own tier below everyone else. Here's a tier list to further reinforce why you can't play her (spaces between tiers are the gaps in viability):

Top:
Bang
Litchi


Everyone else











**** tier:
Rachel




But Litchi isn't a demanding character, she's just sort of a multi-tasking character. Lambda (the replacement for Nu) is pretty decent, upper-mid, I think, but just like in Calamity Trigger the girl still gets ***** by Bang, only harder.

btw, thanks a lot for the links, NinjaFoXx. I'm going to find some way to defeat Patchy! :mad:

I don't understand how damage nerfing could make a character drop so drastically in tiers (or at all, honestly, but that's another story).

Sagat's still ******** in Super SFIV. Squirtle's still ******** when fatigued. Why wouldn't Rachel be ********? Are there bigger nerfs that I'm not aware of?

They didn't just take away her damage. They also took away a lot of her options.

Damage nerfs can go a long away anyway. Squirtle and Sagat are still stupid, but there's no way that you can't get frustrated when your 20-hit combo does overall less damage than 1 good poke from the opponent. Sagat still has good options, but he hits like a little girl now and all Shoryuken's (except Ken and Cammy) are stupid inconsistent (trading hits with aerials and ground moves, wtf. Getting stuffed by some aerials/specials completely, wtf)

Alright, as much as some of these post in here are so lulzy and kills brain cells from reading them, it's gonna have to stop. So, from this point on...if I see anyone posting nonsense for flame/troll bait, it's going to be reported to administration and you might even end up receiving a room ban.

I won't say any names. You know who you are.

Omg what did I just read?

Ryker, what part of Montgomery?
Take a guess.

Ragna, Carl, and, I think, Hakumen are all a step above the rest of the cast and only a step under Bang and Litchi. I'm depressed that Jin dropped like a stone though. Render is about the only person still playing him and he was one of only a few before.

"technical difficulty" is the worst reason i hear for people not playing a character. play who you like. if you can't do stuff WELL FREAKIN DUH BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T LEARNED OR PRACTICED IT YET
idk it's like trying to curve a soccer ball when you have never kicked anything in your life then giving up because it's too hard
