only valid australian tier list or ranking list of any kind only uses data from national tournaments held in melbourne, as these are the only tournament where the skill level and pot are high

Honestly, who here in Aus reps snake anymore? I know me, my brother and Luke do but its kinda odd how such a top tier character has so few people using him, we cant have him falling below marth >_<

it'll be tough to keep him above marth since my snake cant beat shayas marth, but I'm sure he will stay up there.

Ganon - fail tier because he never could beat Link in every Zelda Game out there...
No matter how many times he tried.

That's because Link is THE....MAIN CHARACTER! Ganon just got a little sad after being sealed away in Ocarina and ate alot to comfort himself.

Its better that this is unstickied because when threads get stickied they tend to die.

So with this thread not stickied my theory is that it will become more active or die and never return.

shaya's list is not a tier list and should not be used for tiers

what about statistics about frames and hitstun and delay about characters? none of this tourney results crap

cobalt could use any character and win every tournament and by shaya's small mind that would make that character top tier
actually by other people's small minds, shaya never said it was a tier list but shaya is a loser so he can cop some flame also =)

It's not so much a "tier" list as a character ranking list, which IS based purely on tournament placings and results.

So yes Deks is right, don't refer Shaya's rankings as "tiers" in a traditional sense, but more as an indication of how characters are performing and the current state of the Australian Brawl scene.

I only like sticked what I think is important - this thread, for all its history has denigrated to general spam and isn't as relevant a thread for meetups and tournaments like it used to be.

tournaments have their own threads
meetups are in state threads
derrr
FYI This thread used to be the one that organised all the tourrneys and meetups, long before you even joined SWF, which is why it was sticked for so long.

Eastern Invasion was the first legitimate Australian Melee tournament held and recorded by members of this forum in (approx April?) 2004. It was captured on VHS cassette tapes that went home with me to Melbourne and possibly got sent back to Josh M. in WA.

Any way you could upload them to youtube? I'm collating as much old Aus smash stuff as I can and that would be awesome

What old stuff have you got so far?

And what time era specifically?
I don't have any as such but I may be able to locate some.

I love the old school footage from that early-mid 2000s era.

EDIT: you might already have some but here are some I know.

QLD Smash - not from that long ago really....


Vyse Grip: A Diddy Kong Combo Video.

Syke's Channel. Heaps of old school Melee videos on there.

Thought I'd dump some old school stuff I have still which is a mixed bag of interesting, goofy, and kinda boring. Maybe it's not quite what Pudge is after, but maybe someone stumbles upon it here in the future. Will probably add to this randomly as I think of stuff

Collation of NSW brawl tournament results from approx 2008 to 2014 (Was up to date as of Nov 2014, so anything after that won't be captured):
Top 8s: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18CcYsQmrmnCCqPEoPpo8sHmbqO5KV9o20C03v6FYzL0/edit?usp=sharing
Chronologically sorted: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FsBDReERcKBGzAvyxkK0GqDOKhCpbddzyyeFc2MOtoo/edit?usp=sharing

Really goofy video made by ILAG about mk stuff:

Combo video S.D made a long time ago:

Still looking for old content?

I can't remember if I mentioned Dohei's channel which had a heap of stuff from Comrades 1 (early 2007) and also I used to be quite the camera man and uploaded heaps of pics from smash tournaments for a few years running.

I think a documentary/mini documentary just on Australian Smash history is somewhat viable.
I'd be keen on it anyway.
