I don't even play Smash seriously anymore, to be honest.
It doesn't really keep my interest.

I don't know about you, but that's really just punishing your opponent and unleashing a combo on him/her. There are other ways of punishing though, namely okizeme which I guess you would be familiar as tech chasing but it generally deals with the wakeup game.
Just out curiosity, and in case I forgot, do you play any other fighting games besides Smash? As I mentioned earlier, I think the mental aspect only seems bigger because everything else was diminished.

I play Melty Blood Actress Again, BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, and Dissidia Final Fantasy (though this one is so unorthadox that it doesn't really count ahah); I gotta get serious about Super Street Fighter IV though down the line. I have it.
There is much more emphasis on button input/timing in more conventional fighters like the Street Fighter series and games I mentioned, I feel, when you factor in the capability to use your head in those situations.

For me:
KoF 98/2002
3rd Strike
SF IV/SSF IV
MvC 2
TvC: UAS
GGXXAC
Virtua Fighter 4
Last Blade 2
Vampire Saviour 2
These are in the area and readily available for arcade play (save TvC UAS and SSF IV and last Blade 2), so I'm not going to include games that I really played as growing up/getting int other scene (2nd Impact, Alpha 2, Samurai Shodown II, Smash, etc.) or games that I only mess around in (Still Smash, Super II, BlazBlue, Tekken etc.).
I only enter few tournaments, most of them MvC 2, and I got 4th place in the TvC tourney at Fanime.

....aaand of course there's the quirky characters like yours that find a way to almost break the norm. XD I can understand where you can see the mental work that comes into play for that much.
Indeed.
If I had amazing execution, I would play Carl in BlazBlue.
But I really don't.

Carl and Ice Climbers (SSBB/SSBM) make my brain hurt.
Sonic's a tough one to learn for a solo character though. lol

try kakyoin in jojos for an execution heavy character. his most damaging combos are insane to perform (then again this applies to most characters in jojos). why i force myself to main him i never know.
people who play dhalsim or ics or peach have mental disorders

I've been playing Marth in Melee a lot here lately...to the point where, god I probably suck at Brawl now, but Melee is so much more fun =/.

Justice High is an awesome game. Just had to say that. I play it with my friend occasionally still. We use top tiers. lolol. More fun that way.

I just finished watching all seven videos of team GFs. That was awesome.
Great matches, lots of s*** talk, and everything.
I actually missed teams during the stream so I'm glad you posted that. lol
I'm going to a Tekken/Street Fighter tournament today.
Wish me luck, since I suck at both games! :3c

i just got back from an arcade 3s and vampire savior tourny (both ran on arcades). my yang got pooped on in 3s and i took dead last. in vs though my lei-lei got 4th, barely losing to my friend's demitri. he had a tick throw into midnight bliss from hell. both were free so whatever.
a ssf4 is tomorrow, and i intend to win!
also american arcade layouts are horrible. umk3 has the worst button layout of all time.

I feel bad bringing this up in this thread, as the whole forum revolves around these, but I've been playing Melee a whole lot as of late. I've gotten better at Marth (I was trying to main Mewtwo before that, lolz), and then I decided to play Brawl with some friends who are pretty good at it. I soon realized that Marth fights very similar, and there was little adjustment. The only thing I noticed was his over-b was easier to preform, which made me a little rusty in Melee the next day.
So..did he get like, nerfed or buffed? I mean:
- It seems up+B got better in Brawl
- Over B is easier
- Counter is better
but...
-Down A in the air isn't as good (or maybe I wasn't hitting well)
- B seemed to have a smaller range* (not sure though)
Anyways, just wondered your thoughts. Also, @ Japanese Brawl tiers; they hate Ganon too!

Bridget's so fun to use. I haven't used him in so long though.
I wouldn't really try to use Marth the exact same way from Melee to Brawl.
He's great in both games, so I wouldn't say he was straight out buffed or nerfed.
I don't know if up+B is straight out better in Brawl. It can be good in Melee when done right. Reverse Dolphin Slash in Melee is good.
Over B as an attack is better in Brawl. In Melee, it's situational and they can DI out of it.
It's better as a recovery in Melee though since the 2nd Over B and on won't stop your momentum.
Shield Breaker has better range in Melee, but that's kinda because Marth has more range in Melee compared to Brawl.
It doesn't work as a recovery in Melee and it doesn't take away shields like in Brawl.
Yes, counter is better in Brawl.
Melee's Marth's normals are better IMO because he has more range. The only normal that I can consider better in Brawl is probably his up smash.
So in short, he didn't get straight up nerfed/buffed. Just changed.
But I would say he was better in Melee since he could capitalize on punishments easily due to how the game works.

Marth got nerfed in some areas and buffed in others. In the end he ends up in the exact same place.
someone should make a grapplers tier list. Victor will be top tier obv cuz he grabs with his buttcheeks.

See I didn't mean he fights the same. The way you play in Melee and Brawl are way different. I mean he feels the same. Where as with Ganondorf... yeah.
But yeah, I began to notice some aspects are better and worse in other games. What I have noticed is, Marth seems easier in Brawl. In Melee, Reverse Dolphin Slash, Over+B, etc, are not as easy to use. And the fact that you fall faster makes it harder too I would guess.

Really? I'm not trying to sound stupid, it's just:
I played Melee when I was a 10 year old idiot. I'm recently playing it, only as Marth. So the only thing I have to go off of is Marth/Marth compairsons.
Now that you mention it though, all the combos see easier in Brawl, yet Brawl is kinda fun to me in that sometimes it "feels" smoother (dunno how to explain that one, really), but I would side with Melee over Brawl any day probably.
That and Meta Knight is so ghey.
Getting through an entire match without tripping is harder.
Wavedashing is harder.
Winning with Ganon, Falcon, or Jiggs is harder.
Playing a fast-paced exciting game is harder.
L-Canceling is harder.
and in general...

Everything thats gay is easier. Everything fun is harder.
btw brawl feels smoother till your tech skill is good, after that brawl feels stupid and limited.

i would like brawl more if nintendo did more beta testing on it. plus dedede and lucas need to be better.
Guys.
I'm trying to SSFIV. I'm really trying. I don't get it. I've tried working on my footsies, I've tried every single character, and I just feel like it's really not clicking. Which is a shame, because I kinda like it. I just have no idea who to play, and there are times in matches where I have idea what I should be doing. I "get" Third Strike, but I don't "get" Super.
I'm not trying to get anyone else to pick my character, but is there anyone in the cast that you guys could recommend for someone who plays a ton of airdashers (read: BB, GG, Melty, Arcana, etc.)? I just feel like no character translates well. Everyone in the local scene has been suggesting characters, and I've tried them all. Balrog, Chun, Ibuki, T. Hawk, you name it.
I've been more or less just messing around with Viper, but she's pretty execution-heavy, and I just feel like I can't get the hang of her.
HALP.

for you, i'd say ibuki (she has a lot of hard ****), viper, seth (he has NO health, just a heads up), or elf. maybe adon or vega. just keep messing around with everyone and you'll find someone you'll like.
