Does Marth really have such an advantage over diddy? I see almost no Marths outplace ADHD or Ninjalink ever. Then again, there's only like one amazing Marth, and he doesn't go to tourneys that often.

Most Marth's are Midwest (I think).

The 2/3 Godly ones here (East Coast) beat Diddy's Pierce neat ADHD plenty of times...(I think)

I'm pretty NL uses ROB vs Marth.(Aye Tink)

Neo is the only one of that calibur, I mean.......Marth never places at OOS tourneys, even he doesn't get top 10, yet there are usually at least 2 diddys in the top. Maybe Marth is underplayed?

wars not make one great
Yeah, he really does. His fair hitbox is gay and can catch any naner you throw at him even when it's not that close to him. Forward b spam also shuts Diddy down. The tipper kills at like 70%, sometimes lower depending where you are on the stage. He can also gimp Diddy really well with his bair into the barrels. It is also very difficult to get back on the stage from the ledge against a good Marth.

Me and ADHD are 1 and 0 in tourney (my favor). He's still a better player than me . . . maybe. I just have a much harder time versus the flow of MK than Diddy does, so he usually outplaces me if he's able to avoid me in tourney.

My skillwise opinion of NJ atm:

Mew2King
*gap*
teh_spamerer/Atomsk/ADHD
*small gap*
ksizzle/Inui
*small gap*
dmbrandon/Pierce7d/MalcolmM
*decent sized gap*
Every other ranked/honored player
*big gap*
Everyone else

So, no, I do not think you're that near Wyatt in skill. Your character wins the match-up, so you beat him pretty consistently, so it's giving you the illusion that you're on his level. You can try and turn that around on me with regards to you, but it's clearly not true considering my overall skill at the game (multiple tournament viable characters, doubles prowess) and I really think you're better at Marth vs MK than me, meaning I can't get the full benefits of being MK against you.

Now that you're finally trying to use other characters, maybe you can place higher and learn more match-ups. Yeah, Marth is crippled immensely in NJ, so maybe my perception of your skill is affected by that, but oh well.

If Spam ever had to fight a player named The Ledge in tourney, they would cease playing their match and begin making sweet love, ending in the production of delicious little camp-babies.

I can't, plank beat me to her T_T

Plank said:
0:33-0:15 - Plank gets on the ledge and Plank's as Puffster shoots peanuts that miss. Puffster continues to shoot the peanuts at the same trajectory as the previous even though they miss. Puffster does not learn. Puffster says "GET OFF THE LEDGE!" very angrily as Plank continues to refresh his invincibility. Plank denies this courteous offer and continues to cling to his soulmate.

Throw that P***y at me? B***h I think Im Babe Ruth
Only one high caliber Marth on the EC? :(

The reason Marths don't place higher OoS is because they always make me and Neo face each other in losers lol

I can go even or beat just about every snake player there is me and Ally go even, I beat Candy most of the time I didn't get a chance to play Afro, I beat Razer but it was kinda close we only played 1 match then I had to go. Atomsk and Lain beat me with DDD. and I have no exp vs MK but I do pretty well for the most part.
/rant lol

I really think there are talented Marths other than neo, but if they don't place at national tourneys, then they can't really be considered good on a national level, it's not really a question of whether I think they're good, but if you go by actual placings, Marth just doesn't place for now. I dropped him cause I found him annoying to play in teams, I'm just not good enough to deal with it right now.

I remember at the COT4 doubles pools on livestream, where I ledgehopped spiked candy in like 20 seconds, but he and kadaj still came back and beat k9 and me, and then blackanese and basic sausage absolutely ***** us X_X

I think I will use him at c3 this week in singles though....

Yeah I was gonna mention Roy, but I wish he would come to an ECRC event so we could see how he stacks up against our players.

i don't think roy is on neo or mikehaze's level. he's very smart but i feel his foundation is weak. those other two work harder than him, royr's too busy :/

What about Bardull? He outplaced Mike at the California tournament this past weekend and seems to be pretty good. Darc is also very good too, but didn't do so great at Apex. Had you seen him at Mass Madness, you'd be much more impressed with him. He's since converted to Metaknightism, though. :D

Lol, Plank. Lots changes in 10 months. For example, you moved from planking ledges to planking the sweet, beautiful air.

"I'm not a scrub. In fact, I want MK banned."

He really did type those two sentences next to each other.
