Hey Seif, your coworker got destroyed by one of the chinamen. One stock was a zero to death, and at the same moment I said "daaaamn" out loud, I heard your friend go "daaaaamn" in the commentary.

Max, Don and Yi's matches will be on youtube if they want to see them.

I'll make a big list when they're all done
Thanks I'll let them know. Also, let me know when everything's uploaded so I can put it on our main page. Thanks dude!

Also, I was wondering if you guys minded if I reuploaded your videos to the official A.R.K. youtube channel? I'll link to this thread and your channel as well.

Sure, but you'll have a sizable number of fairly long videos to work with. The video thread here will link to my channel though.

dammit vts, play like that outside of tourney so everyone in arkansas beats everyone and we push each other to such great heights possibly maybe.

jack, methinks your wavedashes are too full sometimes to land the punish. maybe that's intentional or you're anticipating something else in those situations or you just want to get away with a move to cover your retreat (utilt), but in any case I forgot to mention it.

Jack is cursed with perfection. For example, instead of walking from point A to point B, he only does gymnastic somersaults.

Alas, it is so.

great googly moogly, singles are finally done rendering. when william lewis anthony XIV wakes up, he can upload and teams will follow summarily. we have class today, so this will be a risky business, perhaps mission impossible, and potentially even the most dangerous game.

Hey, I bailed at least a week before the tournament, so I think it was just Chris who bailed at the last-minute :p

I wanted to go to ARK, but I had made prior arrangements with my gf for the day that happened to be the day of the tournament that it would not have been in my best interest to bail out on, so I wasn't able to make it. However, it sounds like the Oklahomies who went had a pretty awesome time, so I am definitely interested in future Arkansas Melee events.
Zinth!

You owe me a money match when we play. Apparently it's going to be a legendary match according to your crew. Also, Gravity went super saiyan, so play him and see his improvements :)

Gravity might have gone SSJ, but he ran out of energy against VTS. VTS was running on Kaioken x100 and Senzu Beans. I think he busted out the Instant Transmission Handoff and I swear I saw a Solar Flare. Suuuch a dirty fighter :p

I spent all morning (literally all of it) working on vids instead of studying for this midterm, but I ***** it anyway so everyone wins! Still waiting on Yoshi "Smash is a party game" Macho Man Savage to wake up...

Senzu beans are so broken. Kinda like Sheik.

I'm looking at you Iori :/

Also, ARby, we never sat aside that time to pull out clips for Devour 2. We gotta do that in the near future.

Also, I find it important to learn better spacing vs Sheik/Fox. Those match-ups were always hard for me, but as of late I have found are getting harder for my Ganon.

I'm in a video editing mood, so soon would be optimal for Devour.

I have a good idea of where you can easily improve from watching these matches, and since I guess I play those two characters now somewhat you can work through it. It's amazing how much little tweaks in your game can help. Right now I'm personally in the process of seeing the game in a whole new way, so playing in general will aid that along.

If you think you can take the best combos that we have recorded and put them in as you see fit, I see no reason I should have to be there with you to do so. You're a competent smasher, so you will do fine I think. Besides, I really like to be surprised when it comes out. I feel like it's something new and cool, and I look forward to watching it as well.

And definitely, you're far more analytical than I am, so I would appreciate the help in getting through this. If I can improve even a little vs Sheik/Fox, I feel like I will be comfortable enough with my matchups to be content to play the player, not stress because their character is better than mine.

That's what I like to hear.
Grats on being a beast in Money Matches. I love watching those. Also, I hope I made a good "fist impression" on your Link friend :D

I just talked to Arby longer than I think we've ever talked before over the phone. He's my new inspiration in smash. Clay, we gotta watch our back...he's coming for us, and we have LOTS of reason to be scared.

I didn't actually get to play in this tournament b/c I had to work and ended up just playing casuals, but I got 7th at the A.R.K. II tournament last year if any of you remember me.

I'm aware lol. Although I dunno what he was doing last tournament :/ I'm assuming I'll get passed at some point if he keeps up. Then again, that may just ignite the fires of competition in me and I'll rise to the challenge. Even if Arby does blow past me, it's only going to make me a better player in the long run, so have at it Asian man.

Agreed. I welcome the challenge. But us old smashers shouldn't let him waltz by care free! You'll have to take it from us Arbustos Ardiente! Btw these new boards are pretty cool, I like them.

Also...Arby I've finally done what you said...the painful art of breaking in a new controller is underway.

Farewell sweet, sweet 7 year old controller...I shall miss thee.

Arby is too good he'll be best in arkansas no time flat and i'll be like 10th by then :(.

You can keep everything but the stick, so it's not so bad.

My dad still hasn't accepted it. He keeps asking what my real major is.



I want everyone to be best in Arkansas at the same time. The game will be funnest then.

Only If there is candy. Actually, I was kind of hoping there might be some kind of weekly game in central arkansas that I could start getting in on.

I just watched my match versus VTS, and I totally got straight up beat. I wasn't off my game or anything. Best thing I saw he was doing that really got me was him doing simple grabbing me, charging forward smashes with Nana, then edgeguarding(Chudat). Plus, he did well on his handoffs(Wobbles) lol. Overall, great play.

I also noticed how clean my basics have become. I used to watch videos and cringe, but that wasn't as bad as I remember. Woohoo for improvements.

Yeah dude, I totally agree.

Arby you're right, but only if I'm slightly more best in Arkansas than the rest of you :D

I know right? Videos are good for making you realize what a noob you are. I could **** myself fifteen ways to Tuesday.

Vice: We'll see :p
I'm hoping that Devour 2 gets started soon.

You're in a video editing mood, and I'm in a video watching mood, especially videos with me in them :D

winning that is :/

didn't mean for it to come off like that.

Love being praised and i was shaking in my boots vs chamberlin the last stock which was just a bad choice for him to air dodge on the stage cus he had me.

the results are crazy also.

3rd-chamberlin, 4th- vts , 5th g.vice, 7th ace/arby, 9th saberguy

just really had tournament to seed also since the OK people were really good.

i'm surprised i did so well to be perfectly honest i thought i was about to lose to gravity with his hugs like samus and my first match vs yi so really close skill wise tournament.

so results were kind of whack.

overall it was great turn out but wish we did teams first but i followed there rules so there was no real warm up.

arby do brain freeze before devour lol
