When I wanna go HAX on the DI (which is never on serious matches, because I always feel bad about it afterwards) I take my right hand off of TYU (ABZ) and shift it over to WASD (analog stick) so that I can dual-hand mash with the index fingers. I get hilarious legendaryesque DI that way, but I always have trouble getting back in time to keep playing after I escape the Doug uair chain or whatever.

 

[locopoke]

Where can I find all of the past tier lists for this game? I know there have been multiple lists but I can't seem to find them anywhere.

 

[asianaussie]

The source for the 'gamefaqs list' has been lost to the mists of eternity.

Top:
Pikachu
Kirby
Ness

High:
Fox
Captain Falcon

Middle
Jigglypuff
Mario
Yoshi

Low
Donkey Kong
Luigi

Bottom
Samus
Link

 

[The Star King]

Ah, the wonderful Gamefaqs list.

Making noobs think Ness is good for years to come. Such pain you have caused us.

 

[Peek~]

I came from gamefaqs :\

Fun troll times with Frog and Metroid

 

[The Star King]

I wasn't hating on people from Gamefaqs or anything.

 

[Peek~]

I know, just my face when I remembered I used to go there for my smash info

 

[DMoogle]

Meh, the GF looks like fairly appropriate for the skill level that I would expect GF readers to have.

 

[ballin4life]

I still don't understand your claim that Ness is soooo much better at low levels of play. No matter what he gets gimped super easily.

If we're going to assume Ness can do DJC combos then we have to assume a higher level of play for other characters as well.

 

[The Star King]

Too many variables at low level play to really say. If they're assumed to have practiced a limited amount of techniques, it depends on what they've chosen to practice. Some people may choose to learn short hopping first, some z-canceling, some teching, etc.

 

[asianaussie]

a friend of mine actually commented that ness' up and down aerials have less lag on them than any other in the game, which was half of his reasoning for him being the best in the game (the other half being recovery ._.)

additionally, he said that the strong throws combined with down aerial was an amazing combo (i think he meant it in the burger and fries sense though) and that he was an anticamper due to psi magnet

 

[locopoke]

Anyone else know any other tier lists?

 

[The Star King]

No, there are pretty much only two tier lists.

I still can't get over the fact that a famous Pokemon player is getting into Smash64 lol

 

[asianaussie]

I don't think any other ones were really accepted widely...maybe some ancient Gamefaqs guy knows some

there was SmasherLink's super legit list with Link at the top and Mario in bottom tier or something

LOL IS IT *THAT* LOCOPOKE

oh man, that's awesome

 

[Battlecow]

If I knew what you guys were talking about, I'd be mad impressed. <3 locopoke.

 

[JabbaTheGriffin]

yeah a tier list with kirby at first would be nice to take a gander at

 

[asianaussie]

i can't tell if smogon is trying to troll or not

 

[The Star King]

OK I doubt that's actually JabbaTheGriffin, somebody probably decided, "Hey this would be pretty funny".

Sounds like something I would come up with >_>

 

[locopoke]

I'm an avid smash64 player, jabba and I want to know why Kirby isn't ranked 1st on any tier list. (this is really us nobody's impersonating)

 

[JabbaTheGriffin]

nah it's me. me and loco have been discussing smash64 tiering for the past couple days (he's been playing a lot online and i'm about to start getting into it) and we're convinced kirby is the best so we want to see a tier list that agrees with us (for personal justification i guess lol)

 

[asianaussie]

because kirby isn't as good as pika

it's debatable as to whether he is better than fox (i think kirby is about the same), but fox has better matchups against campers, hence he is higher

here's an U-Tilt tier list

S
Kirby

A
Pika
Yoshi
Link

B
Ness
Fox
Jiggs
Luigi
Mario

C
DK
Falcon
Samus

 

[asianaussie]

you're right this should be in the social thread

Spoiler

the backroom social thread

btw does luigi's u-tilt actually reach higher than mario's? i sorta assumed...

 

[KnitePhox]

Problem:Might be hosting a live ssb64 tourney (prob casualfegs, but whatev) at an anime convention (ACen) in May and have no idea how to setup/manage tourney brackets.

Question:Could anyone point me in the right direction/give advice on how to bracket and manage things like byes or Winner's/Loser's in a probably 8/12/16/24 man bracket?

Any help GREATLY appreciated.

 

[Ocean]

download TIO. byes, winners, and losers will all be done for you.

the basics of seeding are to try not to place anyone at a similar skill level against each other 1st round. keep higher level players on opposite sides of the bracket so they don't play each other early on.

but really, if it's a anime convention, you shouldn't be too worried about seeding and brackets.

 

[NovaSmash]

does ur signature not show up if its bigger than the post?

 

[th3kuzinator]

Yes. Swf disables it

 

[ciaza]

AFAIK it's something to do with the character count of the post. Believe me I've been warned enough to know that it's not based on size.

 

[Surri-Sama]

If you use quick reply there is also a little box you have to check in order to have your sig appear

 

[th3kuzinator]

AFAIK it's something to do with the character count of the post. Believe me I've been warned enough to know that it's not based on size.

If the sig is larger than the post itself, its breaking the rules.

SWF usually auto-disables them if this ever happens, but some slip through.

 

[ciaza]

I certainly know it's against the rules, but if some slip-through it would suggest that pixel height size is not used when the system disables them or not. This is why I believe it is character count or something similar, I remember Star King being curious when his sig generally showed up whenever he quoted someone which sorta lead me to the theory as quoting someone adds a bit to the character count.

But I could be totally wrong, who knows.

 

[DMoogle]

I'm pretty sure it's character count, or else images would likely be automatically disabled as well when they are larger than the post content.

 

[Battlecow]

I always have to disable my sig manually when responding to people with short posts.

It's hella annoying.

The strange thing is quoting someone doesn't add to the 10 char limit. But apparently it does for the character count to determine whether or not you signature appears.

 

[3mmanu3lrc]

Can somebody tell me, how do I change this Yellow Backgrond color the SWF has now?

 

[Blue Yoshi]

Nobody's been able to remove it. All of the S.W.F. staff know of the problem. It will likely be fixed at the end of the day.

 

[ciaza]

Fixed? What's broken? I've only noticed enhancements.

 

[Battlecow]

HEY GUYS 10char

 

[Blue Yoshi]

I know, I just posted that in case he didn't figure out it what day it was...

 

[3mmanu3lrc]

Is annoying if you ask me, at least the bg... >_>

 

[Shibbypod]

Hey peeps. I'm interested in starting to play online, and was wondering about controllers or controller adapters. I was mostly a melee player, so I am most comfortable with the Gamecube controller. I would pretty much rather just not play online if I have to end up using a keyboard, and I have tried the Xbox 360 wired controller and it feels so un natural, and I keep using my B moves instead of 'Up-B' when coming back to the edge (never a problem on console or on virtual console). Any suggestions?
