From Ally's interview on MLG:

MLG: Other than the finals, of course, what was your most difficult match in Orlando?

Ally: San, the Ike player from New York, and probably Tyrant.

:D

 

[Ussi]

Eh Niddo you're slow, that's been out for a while

 

[Nidtendofreak]

Yes I am.

I'm too sloooooooooooooooow!

EDIT: Wait, Watkins was at MLG? Isn't he that Ike on AiB that keeps claiming he's good? Because he just got 2-0'd by Lain's D3.

 

[Teh Brettster]

Yes I am.

EDIT: Wait, Watkins was at MLG? Isn't he that Ike on AiB that keeps claiming he's good? Because he just got 2-0'd by Lain's D3.

Well, to his credit, a lot of people get 2-0ed by Lain's D3 in a bad match-up.

 

[theeboredone]

I never heard Watkins claim he was good (though I don't hang out on AiB sooo..). Ryko did say something about him that complimented his skills as an Ike main. Don't remember what though. I wanna say it had something to do with Watkins being a good aggro Ike, but meh.

 

[YagamiLight]

Getting 2-0ed by Lain's D3 is not exactly a sign that you aren't a good player, haha.

The lack of a live stream for MLG is quite disappointing.

 

[Nidtendofreak]

*shrugs*

I just remember that name from AiB, and that an Ike from over there was rather arrogant.

 

[Ussi]

Anyone know if Snakeee was traveling with san? :S twitter said Snakeee wasn't there

edit: Colaya is there o_O

I haven't seen him play before, but in his defense, just saying that someone got 2-0'd doesn't describe how close (or not) the matches were. Also, Lain has had Ike practice against Kirk when he was active; it's a match-up that he should be comfortable with.

 

[Slaps]

is san even at MLG? I haven't seen any updates on him...

 

[Ussi]

Seriously i'm wondering the same thing

 

[Teh Brettster]

I had San text me a few times. He's in round 4 winners. His most recent victory was ook, a really good DK who has had TONS of Ike exp from Kirk.

 

[Ussi]

Who did San beat round 1 and 2?

 

[theeboredone]

Hows the bracketing like? I know the first MLG went random to establish future seeding.

 

[Ussi]

those who placed 33rd and higher at orlando were seeded. So san was seeded as a 33-49 player. Those people are still complaining about brackets though can't help it when some people didn't go to orlando so they have to start out fresh and random.

Lain vs Ally happened round 3 yea :S

 

[Nysyarc]

Sounding good so far, round 4 without any troubles. The question is how he'll be able to handle the players who use better characters. I'd say San is as good a player as anyone there, so it'll all come down to the character match-ups. I hope he gets to re-match Ally in winners and isn't plagued by recovery mess-ups, I honestly think he can beat Ally's Snake if he plays it right.

Ally is known for epic sandbagging. He only plays at his best when he's coming from losers. I don't know if it's just a habit of his, or he just likes to torture people. In any case, San does have a chance to upset Ally, but a lot of people have come close, but haven't smoked the cigar. So even if San takes Ally last stock, game 3, a lot of other people have done that and you can only question if Ally was holding back.

 

[-RedX-]

What would be the point of Ally saying?:

MLG: Other than the finals, of course, what was your most difficult match in Orlando?

Ally: San, the Ike player from New York, and probably Tyrant.

@_@

 

[Ussi]

Ally this time got sleep though so it's gonna be tougher than last time.

I'm gonna be torn if San has to brawl Anther or ESAM

 

[Nysyarc]

Who do they main? I've heard of both before. I don't really know any other players there so I'm basically only rooting for San, lol.

 

[Ussi]

Anther and ESAM are the two best Pikachu mains. They are both in winners too, anther is random seeded while ESAM is 4th seeded

 

[Nysyarc]

Ah okay, I was gonna guess Pikachu but I thought maybe you just knew them and they mained someone else. Pikachu's a close match-up for Ike so if he was against one of them it'd be interesting to watch. Curse the lack of livestream.

 

[theeboredone]

San has exp against PikaPika. I'm not sure if Anther or ESAM have any exp against Ike.

 

[Nysyarc]

If they don't that would be huge in San's favor, not many players know what to do with a good Ike if it's their first time. That's assuming they end up playing, I haven't seen the bracket so I don't know if it's even plausible.

 

[Ussi]

Unless ESAM played Ryo I'm gonna guess no... Unless Anther played Kirk (lol) I'm gonna say no too...

Neither of them have traveled much recently so i named the closest Ike main to them :S

 

[theeboredone]

They already packed up and finished for today....so till tomorrow.

 

[Tech-Nelium the Shark]

Keep in mind that if you counter the tornado, the counter activates and you miss Meta Knight then the Stun Jacket AT will come into play.

Quick, ask me what it is.

What is the stun jacket AT??? and kinda serious

 

[Nysyarc]

He said quick, you weren't quick enough. You'll get no sympathy from him. Maybe.

 

[YagamiLight]

Thought nobody would ever ask!

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=201884

Read the original post.

EDIT: Yeah, no sympathy for being slow! Maybe.

 

[Tech-Nelium the Shark]

you guys are fast, I like these boards. I'll try and prepare myself for future events

 

[YagamiLight]

We're not fast, we're simply in the right place at the right time. Just like Ike.

I had just gotten back from a 5 hour smash session when you JUST posted, haha.

 

[Mr. Doom]

Lain's D3 is not so good. I beat his D3.
I noticed that Watkins also uses MK, or so says the MLG board.
I 2-0'd Anther in pools at Kahoka Me Your Moves. That was a long time ago (and I doubt Anther will remember this), so I don't know if Anther has been working on the Ike-Pikachu Matchup.

 

[Iofsauron]

That's just because we are awesome though

 

[Heartstring]

i tend to find tha lack of low tier exp most people have lets me finish at least 5 places higher than i would do if they did have it, needless to say, if a certain mk main had any kind of ike exp, i wouldnt even have left the pools at my last national, but regardless, gogo san, kick sum ***

 

[Ussi]

San beats Sky (falco) in winner's round 4! Sweetness

 

[Palpi]

Ike is mid tier! >:-]

 

[Iofsauron]

I dont see how Ike ISNT mid tier! :D

 

[Ussi]

San better watch out, BBR is probably going to want to silence this event so they have their low tier money maker


EDIT: I'm calculating this but, since Meep lost to rich brown, San is against Rich Brown next.. @_@ shiiit olimar..

If he wins that then he's against Ally
