ha ha..
thats basically what carl and shawn did to me like every weekend in 2006.
but it does help.. to a certain extent.
one problem is though, if u constantly get super *****, u just wont kno what to do cause u cant do anything. its mostly better to vs people around ur own skill level and occasionally vs higher skilled level people.
edit: and try vids. it helps to make u use certain strategies and develop them. then u build ur own style from that.

I don't think Carl's ever given me tips aside from when we first met.
I think that's the way to go, though. It leaves a lot of room for you to determine what you're doing wrong and fix it yourself.

I think if you ever get the chance, watch reps of yourself getting tanked. Watching reps of yourself winning can help as well, but watching how you lose helps more I think. Seriously though, vids are like the best way, there is no way you can learn more just from playing.
Yes that's a strongly voiced opinion, but I really believe it to be true.

By watching your videos over and over again, you may be able to get a better grasp on what you need to be doing in theory, however theory never really counts until it's applied in practice.

Yeah, so you go to a smashfest on the weekend and try everything that you've learned, or want to try. You're still learning from the vids though, so it's not like that practice taught you it.

Hmm.. what type of equipment is needed to record smash?

Playing a lot helps most imo, but reviewing how you play by watching a vid of yourself can really help you see your flaws, without you having to also focus on the match.

Just a standard vcr that can record, some av's, and a capture card to digitize.
Well, when I'm bored and I want to practice, I just face level 1 computers(Melee, level 9 Brawl), then put everything into theory. lol.
But I can tell you now, facing people is much more fun and gives much more experience, it helps you adjust to constant changing events, which is absolutely vital in any smash game.

Or you can go ghetto like me and use a digital camera, maybe with a vcr. yayuhz.
Speaking of which, where do you go for Capture cards? I tried london drugs, and I've been too lazy/busy/morejohns to look anywhere else.

Best Buy, Future Shop, etc.
They aren't hard to find.

How expensive are they on average? And do you think Staples would have them?
A capture card would probably run you $50.00-$70.00. I'm not too sure.
Either that or just spend like, $120.00 on a DVD recorder then record straight onto DVD's.

NO.
NOOOOOOO.
The only way to combat this is to do something distinctly Calgary and make a video that looks exactly the same, with almost the same title, even more ******** music, and ridiculous gameplay.

I get off school on Fridays at 5, so if you want to smash when I get home I guess I could do that.

This thread is so hard to follow.

Oh and I can probably smash on the weekend. (prefer sunday if an option)
