You use your own judgment in deciding on whether or not that character should be counted as having been used in a way that would show a fair amount of representation.

i always thought rule of thumb was characters that won important matches (ie going random on a nub in round one isn't important, but counterpicking X to deal with U for one set is) losing with them shouldn't count as using them cause well you lost. In the end it's the player's judgement on if the char he used should be counted

I forget to be honest. All I know is he didn't come back to bum's to finish the rest of the tourny.

Namesearch lul.

I didn't have time. Had to get home. I was already an hour late and my sets from that point on were guaranteed to be 30 minutes a piece soooo I opt'd to not piss off my parents 3 weeks before MLG. Smart move imo.

For real timing out is excellent. I hope you people all do it more like Dphat and I

Does Atomsk always go MK against other MKs? ...'Cause that would bring the player count of top MK slayers down by 1 =/

I can beat them with ICs it's just I haven't practiced ICs in a very long time, and my MK has been doing very well recently.

Try being good at this game then staying up there. If you don't practice a character that you use in a matchup you're ****ed once that matchup happenes

Not with Metaknight.

Metaknight matchup flowchart:


Are you Metaknight? ---> No ---> Pick Metaknight

Yes

Is this character lower mid tier or below? --> Yes --> Spam tornado

No

Is this character higher mid tier or above? ---> No --> You're on drugs

Yes

Is this character defensive in nature? --> Yes --> Find a way to force them to approach

No

Does this character rely
on aerial mobility or shield poking? --> Yes --> Run into them and shield, grab, or up+b at the peak of their jump

No

Does this character rely on a single gimmick, like chaingrabs
or bananas, to really do any damage? ------------------> Yes --------> Avoid this tactic and you're fine

No

Does this character survive a long time on stage? ---> Yes ---> Learn to edgeguard.

No

Does this character go toe-to-toe with Metaknight? ---> Yes ---> MK dittos are hard

No

You missed a step, or the character you are playing will be mid-tier soon. Check the above again.

I love it how the people that AREN'T good act like the MK flow actually matters or anything. Try doing that "guide" and beat any top player on the EC. You'll get your **** cut off.
