DFW Brawl Thread: Batou Monthly, Feb 18th - Revolution 10, Mar 3rd

...okay. what does that even mean?

Ganon has no real combos, he can't move fast enough to completely pursue his opponent after hitting them. You have to wait for just the right moment and smassh them one move at a time. Sure, if your up against the right character on the right terrain, you can FB to a neutral but that's only a few characters, and most of them have to be huge or they have to bounce. Anything else you want to do is all about knowing how your opponent will play and that means you gotta use mind games.

In other news, can't wait for the Bwogo tonight.

Early in the mornin
Risin to the street
Light me up that cigarette and I strap shoes on my feet

Got to find a reason
Reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason why my money's all gone

 

[runningbrave]

Love is what I got. Remember that..

My money IS gone. Someone get me a job so i can put gasolina en mi caro! Any suggestions?! Job openings?! I'll take anything. No gas = No Smash.

braveEDIT: James/Gigi, give me a ride to the next event? Like tonights?! I'll drive to your place.

I can string together hits with ganon, so that just isn't true. it may not be a true "combo" but then again, most combos in brawl aren't true combos. any combo in brawl relies on your ability to predict the opponent after putting them in a bad situation.
"combos" is not ganon's problem. it is that his moves are so slow that it is hard for him to punish. if someone openly attacks his shield, rarely can he drop it and punish with a ftilt or jab, which is a major part of brawl. if he had a faster ftilt or jab ganon wouldn't be half bad.

I still dont understand what you mean by use mind games. "to win you gotta use mind games." that says nothing really.

What I mean is that you can't rely on typical tactics like punishing from the shield because his moves are so slow, you actually have to pull them into your moves using what you know about their characters and what you know about how they play. Thus your success is based more on mind games than techniques developed from and for most other characters in the game.

Looks like a Gremlin or something.... I liked the killer robot avatar.

Ganon is more mind-game than ***-kicking.

This is the same as saying Ganon is bad.

[Infinitysmash]

Tournaments like these are always SOOOO much fun, dude.

Totally going to miss the tournament scene

 

[N.O.T.A.-SrsC@]

Cookies and Brownies were good, Tourney was good. I'll be back in two weeks and twice as powerful. (One of those is true).

I told VlaD and Lock that they better do better next time. I have a lot of hope for VlaD and ∞ 's got hopes for Lock.

Now I'm going to go do what SrsC@ does best: Sleep.

 

[Big Bob]

Fogo...next time, I'm gonna beat you. Just you watch.

[Bwett]

I appreciate everyone that showed up to the Bwogo fest this week. Wilma, once again, thank you for your drink contribution. Poot and runningbrave, I hope yall enjoyed yourselves and hope to see you at more events. Big Bob, once again you got owned, but I really enjoyed those Ike dittos. Monica, thank you for the brownies, cookies, and late night run to taco bell. Personally, this fest was one of my favorites. As it stands, Bwogo fest is going on hold for awhile. From August 12th - August 20th, I'm gonna be out of town, visiting family. From then, school will be starting so I'm not sure when the Bwogo fest will be put back on. A new day might have to be picked depending on my schedule, but we'll leave that for later.

Shuz, I'm waiting for those videos . Also, way to get super counterpicked last night lol.

 

[runningbrave]

bwett1 (& Fargo?! Lol <3), thanks for hosting. I DID enjoy the festivities. Great atmosphere.

Monica, I didn't introduce myself (my apologies) but I know you brought the goodies. Much appreciated.

To those who brought the cokes & THE MILK, thank you kindly.

To my opponents, good matches. Who's SNAP!? Hahaa! Well done sir.

That is quite alright. I promise, I won't hold it against you. But I figure that maybe I should enforce the rule that before anyone eats my baked goods, they must introduce themselves first. Hah.
I figure that since I can't contribute with my -awesome- skills (or technically, lack there of ), I bring food and hang out and giggle when people do terrible. Although, if someone wants to throw UT3 in the mix, it's on!
And YES!! Thank you to whoever brought milk. That was fantastic!
Thank you gentlemen for putting up with me and my non-playing. Except with you Kyas. Next time, you're mine. :D
