dude the live stream was like all tourney matches once the tournaments started... i didn't think the tournaments would have lasted as long as they did so i didn't try and make it onto the live stream until it was too late... i wanted to MM Ruddy on live stream since I was doing really well against Ruddy recently won pretty much every friendly with him while he played fox and oh **** when he met Zeton he learned jab cancelling with fox... we are in for hell if fox's start using jab cancel because trust me guys his jab cancel is faster and harder to get out of since fox moves while doing it... I played Arturo a few friendlies, i thought i could have done better but i mean A_B is too good! lol but yeah WHOBO was fun and i look forward to seeing everyone again next month at A-KON 29th-31st here is link for all TX Ikes!

Hmm...pretty interesting. What was with those tags/lanyards that you guys wore around your neck? Are they like proof that you've signed up for the tournament or something like that?

Also, it doesn't look like there were too many female players from what I could see...Oh well.

Lookin' good bro. So do the cosplay girls.

O_O

Ike is tied with Link in tournament results currently, and is below Ganondorf.

I'm going to cry now.
He's tied with...Link? Oh dear Lord. D:

I understand Ganondorf, though. Kosk is maining him after all, lol.

Nintendo. You should place so you won't cry :)

Who cares if a character places or not, if one person can or can't that shouldn't effect anyone else.

It's kind embarrassing to have Bowser, Link, and Jigglypuff place better then your mid-tier character though. >_>

And I can't go to tournaments until I get a job to fund them, and until my dad fixes my headlights. And I have to get past Espy.......I'll start with actually winning a tournament set though.

LOL Slaps. Good joke.

Also LOL about Link and Ganon's tier placements.
.. Wait that was serious? Oh crap.

Well, Bored, Slaps... a lot of the heavy hitters are gone from PBT and going to a different tourney this weekend. Shall we follow them there or WIN at PBT?

Eh, I'm not too surprised about Link. Link has projectiles that really help him against one of the most prevalent characters in tourney, which is Meta Knight. Tier lists don't really account for matchup favor/unfavors I think. Ike has a horrible recovery and he has to approach against characters while Link has projectiles that allow him to camp effectively, something that Ike doesn't have. However, Link does have a horrible recovery.

That is why Ike is often allowed in low tier tourney's as in.. the ONE I went to. I think that he could've been the best character there.. or sonic.

How do you do the walk-off D-air with smash stick again? I tried searching it but it's pretty difficult to find a post on it since it's not anywhere stickied.

I just thought I'd point out that I 0-deathed every Ike I played at WHOBO at least once with my Ganon :D

I didn't necessarily win, but they got 0-deathed by a Ganon, so who cares, lol.

Because he is a Mod. LOL.

Anyways, I was lookin at the yoshi thread and they seem to have some kind of power rankings for yoshis only. Do we have something like that for Ikes? They even have their own formula and stuff.

That sounds pretty interesting. I don't think we have that on the Ike boards. Only thing that irks me about rankings though is that people disagree a lot about rankings a lot, up to the point where they'll start fighting to be a certain rank, because they think their Ike is that good o_o.

lol well if we made an Ike power ranking thread i would probably be pretty low for the time being... at least out of the important Ikes considering most of the noob ikes don't post on this thread they all just make their own thread asking a question....

only Ike mains and phantom so get out of here.
I love you guys XD

My being a mod has nothing to do with it. I'm a Phantom, I've always been everywhere at once.

Plus I needed to brag about 0-deathing Slaps and Arturito with my Ganon (though it only takes like 3-4 hits, admittedly) :D

I'm a little wary of power rankings; his power rankings were based on tournament success, much like Ankoku's list. While it is implied that you are an excellent player if you can consistently place high in tournaments (i.e. Kirk), it would be a fallacy to say that each of the regions are equally skilled; some regions are just so skilled that you can't just be a good player to have tournament success (i.e. Rykoshet and Silven); you have to be flat-out amazing to come out on top.

I didn't mean any offense to the players referenced in the above statement; I just think that it's unfair to base a player's skill on tournament success alone, since there is obviously a discrepancy in skill throughout the various regions. Kirk and Rykoshet had this little argument earlier; there's no real way to determine who is better than who unless the same two people fight the same opponents and then see how well they did compared to each other.
