Pretty sure it doesn't require all that much effort to adapt to Brawl. Chu's style is really good for this.

Holy ****, you're right! Chu is JUST AS GOOD as he was before, and NOBODY ELSE HAS IMPROVED!
We're talking about the present, not the past.
Yo, guys, I hear M2K's going to win Melee, because he won all of those nationals before. Nobody even stands a CHANCE against him.

you act like chu + top player isnt guaranteed top 16 in teams.
It honestly doesnt take that much to get back into the swing for brawl
Especially for a player at chus level playing a character as basic as kirby.
Plus, its only natural to try and get the best partner possible.

HOLY ****! TOP 16?! UNREAL! THAT'S LIKE GETTING TOP 32 IN SINGLES! FOR REALLY REALLY GOOD PLAYERS, THIS IS A GDLK STANDARD OF ACHIEVEMENT!
No, everybody is ********.
That's a huge difference.

that's disrespectful
if he was at a level once, it is possible for him to reach it again
Chu can be really good if he wants to be; he has proven that in the past. Getting 2nd at Apex in teams is really good.

Because smash is the main event. You always pay more for the entree than the appetisers.
This is allowed and perfectly fine.
I dont know what standards youre working with, But top 32 out of a possibly 400 person tournament is most definitely an impressive achievement regardless of who you are.

It's not disrespectful. It's ****ing fact.
Chu used to place amazingly.
Now he doesn't.
Clearly, the metagame is stagnant, and he's having off days.
GTFO of here.
See, you say this because you're not really good.
Top level players are not hoping to get top ****ing 32.
They're hoping to get in the money.
If they don't get in the money, they feel like they haven't accomplished anything.
Whenever I don't place in the money, I'm frustrated, and there are CLEARLY players better than me.
If you're happy with top 32, you're not aiming high enough.
Fact.

Now I agree with Riddle on this.
Everytime I go to a FL tourney I only want to place in the money. If I get like 5th. I felt like I wasted my time.

*Laughs* That's how you guys view the game? Downtalking a player is disrespectful and that's a ****ing fact. And yes it's all about success.. rofl. What a joke.
You want to know why I teamed with Chu in melee? It's because I think it will be an interesting team to do and something I've never done before and I also think we can do really well. If you guys don't have any faith in your players, how can you hope to be respected as a person in the first place?

Hey now. Ima be upset if/when I lose no matter what.
But a rational logical thought process should let you realised that if you take all the best players from your region, tristate, texas, canada, md/va, cali, Michigan, Georgia, Europe, AND Japan and then add in the really good people from lesser known regions like San, and Hunger AND relatively unknown people with the capacity to surprise you (see: iLove from Pound V) and its obvious that theres going to be some REALLY good players that dont make it out of pools, much less getting to top 32.
As it stands now making it to bracket is an accomplishment no matter who you are.
As far as Im concerned, theres only like... 10 people max that I expect to make brackets no matter what. Pretty much everyone else could catch an unfavorable pool and a quick exit.

I think Chu's good in Melee.
I never thought he was that good at Brawl.
I'm not down-talking a player, I'm stating my opinion.
If I am not allowed to say things people because "he's a top player", then everybody in the Smash community can go **** themselves.
If I was talking **** to a low-level player, nobody would give a ****.
Hypocrisy is amazing~
That doesn't mean you should strive for it.
I do not think it is an accomplishment to make it to the brackets.
It would depend on the situation of your pools, but unless you get paired with 2 top level players, you should never expect to not make it to the brackets... if you're a top player.
This WAS an argument about top-level players, right?

Nice edit, Roller.
Also.
Top players are over-rated.

That's not really what I'm saying... just any disrespectful opinions should be kept to yourself because it's mean whether it's a top or whatever player. Someone good should still team with him imo, because he's Chu damn it. lol.

that feel when the metagame is still the exact same since the second Apex

Fair enough.
Well, you say chu isnt so im not sure lol.
Either way ima laugh madd hard if you get some busted pool like anti/RAIN/Razer or something and dont make it out.
My point is that just cause he is who he is that does not mean he deserves a super good top partner, like you said what are we celebrities?
Divinokage
Smash Legend
Well.. why don't we let those good or top partners decide for themselves if they want to team with him or not?

I mean, switching from saying #4 in my state, to a top player in my state was merely for semantics purposes. I wanted to use the same wording he used.
Wasn't that big of an edit imo..

Esam is gonna take Brawl

I'm sure they have enough copies of the game and enough set ups, so I don't think they need ESAM to take his copy of Brawl.
