Doesn't DJN main bowser?
I saw some vids of him fighting scar and he was amazing. He actually won (although scar didnt seem to be at his best, he was rushing it to much). I want to see more bowser vids of DJN because he's just too good.

dude its just kevin M i mean.......he's already clearly bad at this game so i have nothing to prove..... eat a ****.....:laugh:
Go back to Brawl where you can place out of the money but at least look like you can play. Oh wait you've already done that. Kid you're garbage, just cause your region is good doesn't mean you can't suck balls. Your mario is garb and hasn't done anything impressive. Get *****. You don't know **** and you aren't ****, stop riding MD/VA's nuts when you aren't part of the elite. You're the next Chosen one EL OH EL.

@ Dogy Yeah but he goes a majority of Mario and just goes Bowser LOL when he has a better match-up.

DJN is the best performing mario at this point no disrespect to other mario mains besides Boss lol

Ok, so tell that to PC Chris and the host of other people better then Melee in that crew IE all of them.

I'm through with this ****, I just proved your a ***got. gg

Edit: I'd just like to point out if you're so **** how'd you have to make up **** about playing me just to say you beat me? Or the fact that you've never won a tourney with competent players. Or the fact that you're not considered part of MD/VA's elite players. If you can answer those questions legit, I could respect you maybe. Until then get *****.

Woooooooooooooow. But I have to agree about DJN. He goes mario and then BOWSER who does that. He also does doc but not as much anymore. Mostly seen him do mario now

First on-topic post this page!
If I have a good, smart Falco pressuring my shield, there's not much I can do. He'll stay way outside my grab range with lasers, jabs, dairs, shines, ftilts, anything really, and just put pressure on me. How do people deal with this? I've found UpB out of shield works pretty well (Samus tactics yayuhz), but if I wiff it or the person DIs out before the last hit, I'm screwed.

I just hate Brawl :D, there really is no disrespect to being good in brawl besides the fact that I hate it.

Trust me, I'm not saying you're placing last, I'm just not saying you're in a position to be talking like you're placing in the top tier of MD/VA. I just wanted to back my **** up after you spread that rumor. And I don't take anything to heart on the internet, I just like flaming. ^_^


and kevin M ask around im pretty much respected and elited in the eastcoast.......i mean just 3 weeks ago i was commentating H2YL and there crazy rap battles LOL.....hilarious...

I would say you're known but not elited. No offense or harshness meant there. Yeah I didn't go to Esticle, Mass Madness was Melee only so I missed out on that.

Blade breakers are hilarious yo, How can you dis a crew that has Skler, KevinM, Pine, Dazwa, Darc, PC Chris, Cort, Mango, Hugs, WoZ. It's like the super friendliest crew in real life, and the biggest douches if you put a keyboard in front of us. We're like the international trolling super heroes.
Word, I'm done though I wasn't getting offended over a difference in the list I'd just figure I'd post that I wasn't feelin the disrespect lying over matches that haven't been played.

If I might say so... Boss is amazing so I don't know where or why you come up with that crap.

and at the falco matchup

dont ever get shield pressured, cuz you cant do anything at all out of it (good at least)
just roll away and reapproach.
or you can shield until they dont perfect l cancel, then shield grab. try switching your shield size up to **** up their timing.

Do you have any advice for playing a sheik? I got completely devastated by one recently, and just don't know what to do about it.

Also, I've read through most of this thread and you'll post things like "Oh you can D-throw to free fsmash up to __%" Do you just have all these memorized from personal experience? I don't know a lot of the stuff Mario can do to other people (like CGs, or the throws to smashes) and was kind of hoping there might be some way to find out what all he can do to other characters.

Advice for Mario against IC's anyone? I get ***** by their grabs and Nana screws up my grabbing reflexes from the sheild.

Advice for Mario against Marth? All I'm usually able to do is play defense until I can get one back air in, then it's cake by I'm usually stuck waiting for him to forward smash and punishing him but that stupid sword is three miles long.

No duh! F-tilt is a decent option, I'll just try to space them more.... but I wish they would stop spamming their smashes.

Hey guys, I just picked up Mario awhile ago, and I've been playing Doc for a bit. Anyways, I have some quick questions (which have probably been answered, but I don't wanna go through this long as thread right now ._.) I've mostly been playing Mario in teams, for a Mario Yoshi team. Yeah <_<

Is there a TRUE proper order to Mario's recovery? I have the general idea it needs to go Down+B, DJ, Cape, Up+B. Does more than one cape also HELP your recovery, or like marth, does it just slow you down after the initial one (as in not lose heighth)?

When I've got a Marth(well really anyone) in a grab, I always seem to dthrow>utilt/uair/fair (at higher percentages into a techchase/utilt depending if they miss the tech). At what percentage should I start trying to nail them with a Nair/bair, or is it kind of situational? Generally I seem to be doing it at around 150, but I'm unsure if that's too late or not....

Well actually Mario's cape can help multiple times as it stops all areial movement, try to use it to stop your movement right out of the hit stun then Down+B, DJ or cape for stalling then Cape for stalling again or UpB to Sweetspot when ready. That's how I do it anyways.

Mario can U-tilt to combo start and Up-tilt at medium and some low percentages on certain characters for a combo into Up and B-air. Don't wait for High percentages to go for B-air instead go for it or Up/neutral air after one Up-tilt/Smash, and at 150% just freaking back throw them for a kill or gimped kill.

Well, when playing doc, you can only cape once, but for mario you can cape twice I believe.
