Zhu, I just watched your set vs Fly Amanita from DGDTJ, and all I have to say it good ****.

I noticed you don't focus solely on killing Nana like most people do- you tended to keep the pressure on both Popo and Nana even, which was sweet.

I remember Hugs once telling me that Mango told him to just focus on ****** Nana when he gets the chance and that the advice alone made the difference from getting ***** to beating him the next time. I've tried focusing on just killing Nana but I've yet to find a way to efficiently kill her before Popo comes around. The best thing I've got is to do a little of both I guess haha, but it's still really scary attacking Nana knowing Popo is right there to punish landing lag or something like that =/ Good thing Falco is quick and can do aerials one way and shoot lasers the other LOL



And yeah, someone seriously needs to make a video / results thread. I think a lot of people are unaware of what went down at gsg2. Upset city forreals

Edit: lol, This morning for work I saw a shooting star and looked at my cell phone for the time...there was a 9 on the time...similar to lasts weeks shooting star with a nine, expect it was a date and not the time; 12-9-10.

i like how k for ken comes after j meanwhile ken ***** everyone before J started to dominate. Kevin Nanney (will history repeat itself) they say everything recycles after a few years.

The irony is PC Chris (falco) defeated Ken and for a while took on the best player in the world title however short lived.

so marth (k) then falco (c) then marth again (j) then puff (j) then falco (k) this is cycle is either fate or luck.

while chris was neither a K or a J. His of falco suggests a shift between marth falco and jiggz.

which leads me to believe that someday MARTH WILL RISE AGAIN.

This could also be a once in a life time thing that that many J's place. Players like Armada, Amsah, Calle W, PP, Shiz....etc also do really well so names don't really mean anything tbh. Someone who's name starts with X could show up and randomly beat everyone else. It was a cool happening but I think now people are getting to deep into it.

I don't think anyone is taking it seriously LOL. It's just outrageous that top 9 of a regional were all Js.

Ahhhh jape.

I posted this in the DGDTJ thread, might as well post it here since it's closed now.

The reason that J is a popular letter for first names is that many popular English names come from Hebrew (and to a lesser degree, German) where names often mean something like "God's love" or "God's wisdom" etc., and the "God" part usually gets transliterated as starting with J (as in Jehovah).
