Do you have an AIB?

If you do, can you give/trade me a Nick Riddle Card?

If you don't, can you make an account and ask the staff for Nick Riddle cards to give out and then trade me a Nick Riddle card?

Every Pro is getting x26 of them.

Do you do any training mode grinding exercises?

somewhat akin to grinding BnBs, Oki set-ups and whatnot in other fighting games in brawl but instead of training mode you either have a modded training mode so its like normal brawl, or you play with infinate time because vanilla training mode is not like normal brawl AT ALL. [that and smash training modes generally suck in comparison with other training modes, but I don't wanna get into that].

copy and paste in three threads for your convenience/post count/just because.

If you look closely at Nick's card, you can see that he's doing the C.Falcon Emblem
with his hands...
...What a traitor.

They picked it, idk Complain if you don't like it I guess, I gather that people creeped your facebook for funny pictures for the card

So can I have your card Nick? :3 plzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Loli you can get one amazingly EASY if Nick Signs up to AIB and claims his 26 cards that he can share with anyone he pleases.

In the rain.
I never use ZSS's nair, because it doesn't seem to be very useful, and I don't seem to find myself in situations in which it is the best option. However, I don't like the idea of never using a move (unless it's completely horrible) which I'm sure it isn't. So I guess my question is, how useful is ZSS's nair really? I noticed you like to keep your posts fairly short (which I don't mind), but please provide at least SOME explanation on how useful it is. Thanks.

I usually hate nair.
It auto-cancels, but it has so much shield-lag that you can get punished for it.
The best use for nair, IMHO, is to hit people with the stupidly huge back hitbox.
Example: Snake recovers high. Hit him with that.

It has two frames more shield lag than uair or bair...

The best use of it (imo) is spacing with a disjoint. Lot's of people try to shield grab it, if you see that habit you can nair their shield and dsmash their missed grab. It makes for easy spacing by using nair>dtilt. Nair has slightly less range than dtilt, so you can theoretically miss with nair to avoid the shield lag and then dtilt them as they try to punish, though I doubt anyone has spacing that good.

Nair is also your best option for covering your own landings on your front side. Muuuch better than side bing to cover your landing, or nBing.

I get grabbed, because people who aren't ******** run at me and grab me.
or, you know, aerial OOS because I'm stuck there longer.

Ok, let me put it this way:
What is the worst mistake(s) a ZSS can do in a match?
Don't mention obvious stuff like wiffing Fsmashes N stuff ;p

I think it's usable in a lot of matchups if you space it well, you have to retreat it just like bair obviously. I'll put it this way: it isn't an amazing option, but its the best option for what it does, which is covering your front with a hitbox. I try to space it so that it will miss if the opponent stands still, and if they dash it will hit them out of dash start up.

For example: 2:35 and 2:54

Yeah, it's okay in that fair is SDIable, and nair is just one hit.
I still like the back hitbox a LOT more.
LIke... it's SO GOOD!

The most fun you could have with ZSS is playing someone who doesn't know **** about the MU in general. Every move you make is hilarious and everything looks straight out of a combo video.
