AZ-Fantastic use of Banana when it came down to retrieveal and timing
Snakee-played too much on the defence, I know its bananas but you have to be more aggressive and use the bananas as well, needs more PS

extremely boring to watch. 5/10
Serious question: Have you ever made a constructive post on this forum? I think you have like 200 some duplicates of this message, which is entirely pointless.

AZ, just out of curiosity, who did you lose to?

In pools I lost 1 game to Steel2nD's Marth on BF (first game I played Saturday night, played the rest of my pool on Sunday afternoon), then I 2 stocked him on SV and BF to win 2-1. I then 2-3 stocked everyone in my pool until I fought Snakeee, who broke my 2-stocking streak in the second game (and the last game I played in my pool) when he managed to get me to my last stock. Overall I went 7-0 in sets and 14-1 in games (though a few of those sets/games wins are cause of DQ's of the opponent).

In brackets I played a lot worse then in pool play (stupid 6 hours time difference between the two). I lost in Winners Round 2 to Turbo's D3, game 3, with his D3 at 186% on his last stock. Mad close set. Him and I played in tournament back in December and I won our close set then 2-1. I then beat SSR's Peach in Loser's round 2, 1 stocking him and then 2 stocking him. I then lost to Kismet's Falco 2-1 in Loser's Round 3. Just to explain how badly I was playing in brackets: against Kismet game 1 on FD, less then 30 seconds in it was his 3 stock 6% to my 1 stock 0%, after suiciding twice. I took him back to FD in game 2 and narrowly won (my 1 stock 140%, I KO'd his last stock at around 180%). Game 3 on BF was going well for awhile. I had him at 2 stock like 50% while I was at 3 stock 80%, but I side-B kicked and suicided that stock and then he CG'd me when I respawned basically destroying my momentum and tying the game. Sigh. Both sets I lost were winnable but I was not playing well and got outplayed. Also doesn't help that I hate fighting D3 and Falco is just annoying for us Diddy players. Why couldn't I get to fight Snakes/MKs?

My MM's went like this:
Beat G-reg 2-1
Lost to Jash 1-2
Lost to Ally 0-2
Beat Hax 2-1

Come on guys, Brawl vids are normally very boring yes, but this was a nice set. Snakeee couldn't seem to find a way to get inside. Just out of curiousity AZ, what would give as a ratio for the matchup?

Meh, I don't really like giving match up ratios, but like most of Diddy's match up I would say its close to even or slightly in ZSS's favor because she can really screw up Diddy's spacing if played right. Snakeee just wasn't being aggressive enough and let me control the stage, making it so he was always dealing with me from a disadvantage. If you notice there are periods in both games where he goes more aggressive and instead of me dealing 30-50% to him and hitting him away, instead he either deals damage to me at a 2-1 ratio or at worst trades hits with me.

Snakeee has apparently beaten Ninjalink's Diddy the last 3 times they have faced off and that may have contributed to this set, where Snakeee was expecting me to play far more aggressive similar to NL's style instead of more of a zoning/reactionary style of play.

I usually camp Diddy a lot though. I probably shouldn't have approached you much at all unless I had a banana...speaking of which I got really lazy with those in this set, and just tossed them back right away most of the time >_>. I don't know I'm questioning how to play this match up a lot now. Rush did pretty well against me in the tourney too.
