Nah, I'm done with that thread. Just chill ricky, you're taking that **** way too seriously. In no way did I verbally attack you. Just chill urself.
Fine.... But you seriously sounded like a jerk. And it was right after you got mad at that one guy for saying you don't even mad Doc in tournament. And with no :) or :laugh: or even :dizzy:, what was I supposed to think...

BTW, spaced up-tilts on Falcon n-airs = good advice, thanx.

after a decade i think we NEED a well developed matchup chart.

the problem is most pros dont care, or are like dogy where they just cant be bothered with arguing it cuz they think they'll meet ill formed opinions.
so that leaves a bunch of people discussing characters they dont really know much about or very little from playing friendlies.

so we get a matchup chart that many higher level players think is bad, but they never bothered to go in and post their opinion so i dont know wtf they expect :/

I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE, AND PEOPLE TRY TO TELL ME MY OWN MATCHUPS

Now, tell me why in the world I would WANT to go through that again. I'VE LITERALLY DONE IT FOR YEARS, IT'S OLD.

I'm not going to sit in a thread and talk about this AGAIN when I've done it TIME, AFTER TIME, AFTER TIME

Charts are official, man.
You make some claim, some guys gonna be all,
"what you got to prove it?"
and you say,
"Yo, I got me a chart"
and he'll be like,
"oh ****, sorry man, I can't argue with a chart"

*thinks*
..
*and thinks, and thinks, and thinks and thinks*
na, following statement is still true.

You're right. At the end of the day, nobody needs a match-up chart, nor a tierlist. That's why they vary, from person to person, region to region.

They ARE helpful for a reference, especially to new people. If it's a proven fact that said matchup is hard, and there are alot of -insert character- in their region, logic says "Well if I play this character, I'm SHOULD have a hard time in tourney."

Is that always the case? No, but it really just depends on how you look at it.

[/statement]

I'm willin to bet that the reason why you say it don't matter is the literal why it doesn't matter in melee.

Tierlists and matchups are based off of tourney results.

Therefore, the Doc/Marth matchup will magically be 50/50 or as far as in doc's favor if Doc starts winning nationals. It can't be that ~~

Shroomed: your playstyle works for the matchup
Dogy: you play a bad matchup well

~~, it's got to be, for whatever reason, the matchup magically shifts that drastically.

and.

I'm waitin around to see if anybody is driving up around or past me.

My lolsponsor isnt giving me anything for this (heck, they ONLY want to sponsor me for like, in GA and AL. Going to CEO is "a long drive" :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:)

and nobody else is throwing money in my face or anything, so I'm lookin at it like "Umm.... why would I fly for this?"

I know FMM said he wants to go and if plane tickets are >$200 he's looking to drive.

So like, I might. I dunno. It's lookin more like a LOL-NO! with a slight hint of if hell freezes over.

Lolsponsor I like that. I know what you mean its like me saying "why the hell would I go all the way to gamme... too far now xD" oh but too bad gamme had to be dropped. Plank did a good thing. its so weird I played him at spoc randomly xD **** good shiek.

If I threw money at your face it would be monopoly dollars after I have won. IM SO RICH SO HERE HAVE SOME MONEEEEEEE

but don't worry, I'm sure the omniscient overlords of our realm of over-the-under-world-world would be kind enough to let you go up to Apex. ;D

Oh there's a huuuuuuge difference.

If GAMME would have went like it was supposed to, then you're talking about one of the biggest fighting game tourneys to ever happen. If everything happened like it was supposed to, that would have been bigger than EVO. Easy. Top 8 **** flyin in for SSF4, Koreans for Tekken, and LITERALLY over a years worth of talk and "planning"

*nods* I don't blame you at all. I've got more than enough to fly to APEX, but I can't justify flying anywhere for melee.

Edit: Was thumbin 'round my pages this morning, and saw that Maj updated with a new article on Sonic Hurricane.

Article about game balance titled "What Does Unbalanced mean"

I just thought it was one of many good reads from the site, figured I'd share. Food for thought, ya know.

Yeah, tier lists aren't 100% accurate on every matchup. That match up chart they got going in there is slightly inaccurate since Doc isn't used by that many people.
Um, that kinda depends on how the tierlist is made.

Cause I mean, if said tierlist is literally made from a matchup chart, theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen ...

LOL charts

I love the Shieks that shuffle aerials at you. I eat them kind of Shieks for breakfast.

Man she gets wet...

The needle and shielder ones can be a pain, but that just means she'll set herself up for grabs one day. Ftilt is a bit tricky though...freakin rock paper scissors

I would think that F-tilt would be stupidly easy to deal with if you play a grounded style (which you should vs Sheik since pretty much everything she does can anti-air) and just CC grab --> CG.

That's pretty much what I meant but more vague. lol

It's a given to stay on the ground and that's the annoying part. Ftilt sends you in the air after a little % (from needles or one good grab).

Moving in with anything except shield, which they still could grab you from (or maybe a spaced dsmash/ftilt/dashA? I donno the stats behind it) and the Shiek gets you with a ftilt, you're airborn again. :\

If they attack or counter your approach, eat them. (cc grab example) Through all the mixups and crap into a stock, a ftilt snuck in there can screw things up pretty good.

Grab/ftilt/projectile/dsmash. That's what they both have on eachother to mix up and trickziez really. Shiek just has more gayness that shuts down Docs more than he shuts hers down. :\

She's still food :D

No wonder I suck vs sheik because I love to play in the air. >_< Always dying to a slap.

Doc's duck is surprisingly resilient in the face of F-tilts, I find. Shield dash tends to be good against her too.

I dunno.

If you're talking about F-tilts juggling after you get grabbed or whatever then I dunno. DI away? Get comboed anyway? Sheik's gay.
