Eager to learn

[UpsettedFizz]

Hey all, my name's Chris, but I'm known on the Internet most commonly as UpsettedFizz, or Fizz. I've been playing Smash for a while now but I just decided to sign up for SmashBoards today. I only play Smash 4. I played the other games when I was a kid, but I was too young to get into any sort of competitive scene back then, and have since misplaced my copy of Melee. I still have a Nintendo 64 and Smash 64 with it, as well as Brawl, but I only play those for fun, if at all, and don't know much about their competitive aspects.

Like I said, I've been playing for a while now and while I certainly have not mastered all techniques, I'm pretty familiar with almost all "Smash language," as I like to call it. My best main is Mario, but I'm also pretty consistent with Cloud (everyone has a pocket Cloud as I understand it), Zero Suit Samus, Corrin, Bowser, Luigi, and Charizard. I play Lucas sometimes, but I wouldn't consider him a main. I'm also looking to pick up Mewtwo, Sonic, and Pikachu sometime in the future.

As much as I'd like to think I know about Smash, I'm always learning something new. So I'm here to do just that: learn as much as I can about the game, meet a few friends along the way, and even get familiar with some of Smash's pop culture. I'm looking forward to it.

I think it would be fun to see how I fare against the Competitive Smash Community, so feel free to hit me up for a battle on the Wii U. Otherwise, see you around!

I am fairly new as well, but I have one piece of advice I have found helpful: find one main first and specialize there. To learn the game and your character at the same time is nigh impossible, so having character consistency both improves that character's quality when you use them and makes it easier to learn general game ideas (spacing, zoning, stage control, neutral game) as well. This http://forums.brawlminus.net/threads/list-of-guides-to-help-new-players.475/ may be useful also. Good luck and happy main hunting.

I think that's what I did, I was just playing the game as Mario for a few months before I started to look into picking up other characters and competitive techniques. Mario is still my most consistent main by far though: I have about 5 times the amount of wins with him than I do with Corrin, and Corrin has the 2nd highest amount of wins out of any character I play as.

But you did exactly what I asked in the OP: provided me with something to learn. I will definitely be poring over that list of articles over the next few days, or even weeks. Thanks a bunch!
