Yeah. I was in my clan channel on bnet the other day, and i made some random comment about my games that day. Some guy who didn't know me started trolling, and quite badly. I started insulting his fail of a troll and 5 minutes later he claims that he was trolling me into calling out his trolling... or something like that. idk he was ******** lolol

I think we've been to 3 common tourneys in Chicago/Champaign, but I'm never aware that you're in attendance until the results thread comes up, lol. Same goes for GooeyBanana. You guys gotta find me, I'll probably be recording or helping TO. It's harder for me to find you because you are two smashers among several from IL/WI that I still don't recognize =(


Last game last stock, but couldn't seal the deal. Maybe I should have done the Kels... uthrow knee on Ganon rofl. Dat armor was about to fall like a rock in our pools standing if I had won!

hey, i just got accepted into the university of chicago about a week ago and was wondering if chicago has a good/active scene?

at this point i'm not 100% sure i want to go yet (cornell, emory, and stanford still pending) but hopefully the responses here will convince me :D

Diego, I'd argue that Ann Arbor is currently the most active Melee city in the Midwest on a day-to-day basis... we Smashfest way more and have a huge pool of players overall, we just lack an abundance of top players to compete with Chicago. That'll change once Teczero is on board!

o wow thanks guys. i wasn't expecting so many responses - usually in the dallas thread ppl have to wait 2-3 for a single response which is usually pretty depressing anyways lol

funny thing, i considered applying to ann harbor also.

Now here's the dilemma:
Kels seems immovable from that #1 spot.

What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?

Can there be two #1s?

I only play her for fun sometimes, but my advice is to just keep "I'M A NINJAAAAAA AND ALL MY MOVES ARE AWESOME I HAVE SO MANY OPTIONS" in your head the whole time.

The rest falls into place.

I think my Sheik is pretty good. Cosmo is a hell of a lot better than me in dittos though. Sheik used to be the perfect counter to his Zelda. Those were the good days.

On the whole, all MW sheiks are AWFUL.

Tec0 is the only good sheik to come thru the MW since M2K lived in Ohio.
