i agree, but m2k was never better when he went all marth in the 2006-2008 era. he ***** all the sheiks except kdj, he ultra ***** all the spacies, and then mango came along. m2k's prime was incredible with that marth. now, the best he can do is 4th. mango, hbox, armada all beat his a$$$.
btw, i don't think there's one true way to handle your mains or secondaries. do what you have to do, everyone is different.

I do gotta say Ohio is VERY hilly, but it looks cool 
Oro?!

Cincinnati seemed pretty hilly imo. You are right though, when you get into those mountain states, those are hilly. I don't like driving there...

It's so hard being Falco. Falco main forever as of now. Forget fox.
i guess im just used to cincinnati and then spent 3 months in the himalayas last year so our tiny hills dont seem like mountains anymore
outside of the ohio river valley though, like driving across 70 to columbus or up along 80 toward cleveland, its as flat as indiana

I lived in West Milford, near the northern edge of the state. It was fun.

This has been my offical motto for about 2 months now:
"It's sooooooooooooo easy being blue"
referring to the blue bird ofcourse.

this thread is dumb mw is way too far apart so we dont have gatherings of ppl so there is lil incentive to practice to beat any particular person.
for mw to count as a region compared to "SoCal" is dumb cuz of population and distance.
but i will beat u lil engles if u want just for the record.

It's turned into a social thread for the most part anyways and most people have gotten something out of it, so I've done my job.

he's got a point though
little england, if you just so happened to grow up in the midwest instead of socal, you really think you'd be even close to your current skill level?
try getting good driving several hours for every tournament with the 2/3 people in your town who play smash.
the midwest's relatively low motivation to get better is due mostly to our unfortunate position on the earth and not because we are lazy or inherently unskilled.
tl;dr geography johns

I'm not responding to the latest ignorant posts because I have addressed all of these statements before. Read through the thread people.

i dont have anything to contribute to the actual discussion, but i'd recommend you update your first post with a question/answer section summarizing your points and peoples possible criticisms and updating the thread title with *READ FIRST POST BEFORE REPLYING*
people in this thread have had a habit of responding without actually realizing what you're saying(and i've really appreciated the thread)
remember that even though you are 100% genuine in your intentions to be helpful, peoples (possibly wrong) perceptions dictate reality and have trouble understanding your salient points

my apologies for not reading through the whole thread. if you want to point me to your answers then i'll read them.
i just find it hard to believe that you could still have these opinions after hearing from me (and others before me) why the midwest inherently isn't as conducive to the growth of a smash scene as the region you came from.
so you might want to change the first post, indicating that you either have a different point than the one that obviously came across, or that you're holding us responsible for the area in which we were born.
edit: just read through the first 150 posts or so. your point still seems to me to be that we lack the motivation to improve that the coasts have. my point still stands though, you should understand the reason for the lack of motivation before you set out to fix it. you can try and instill a greater motivation for us to get better, but you shouldn't be frustrated or even surprised if we aren't living up to your expectations, because comparing the midwest to socal is like apples and oranges. i've never doubted that you have good intentions making this thread (otherwise you wouldn't have made it in the first place) but you seem to be missing my point entirely. chexr nailed it early on and you, of course, dismissed him without an actual response.
