I think this is a sophism. Of course you can describe mindgames/list them/teach them/etc. You can also in a lot of ways describe playing smart overall. Having a lot of different "mindgames"/situation-specific tricks in your repetoire can be positive for your game.there are infinite mindgames in this game, you can't really list mindgames off, that would be defeating the purpose of a mindgame.
i just felt that listing off mind games could be kinda hard , since they involve manipulating a player specifically, rather than combos that are considered for the most part, consistent.I think this is a sophism.

The important skill is applying them in game organically though, and usually the best way to achieve this is to learn them yourself through experience, so if that's your point then I agree.
fuzzy is legitprofessor pro looks good,but fuzz looks better..hope they come to a us tourny soon
he's not 'just' a trash talker lol, he's like one of the best foxes in the UK.fuzzy is legit
pro is just a trash talker
yeah cuz beeing the best fox in uk actually means something, lolhe's not 'just' a trash talker lol, he's like one of the best foxes in the UK.
not sure about lately, but last time i was playing with pro in the uk a few months back, pro said he knocked fuzzy outta tourny. fuzzy's getting better but i wouldn't say he's noticeably better than prof.
Lol, it means more than fuzzy being the best falcon in the UK, considering the ratio of fox's to falcons there.yeah cuz beeing the best fox in uk actually means something, lol
learn to SHFFL consistently with him, it's not that easy. produce a solid grab game. learn to waveshine -> whatever properly.I was told by one KevinM that if I get good with spacies than my smash game will get much better, and I agree. so my question is, where do i start to learn Fox, i know the game so you dont have to take it easy, a fox synopsis if you will
Tink plays whoever he mariwannas.I thought tink played marth still.
just emulate what you see pro's do if you actually know the game. you see a fox shffl a nair on a specific char and it works? try it out yourself. everyone knows what makes fox good, its just hard doing it.I was told by one KevinM that if I get good with spacies than my smash game will get much better, and I agree. so my question is, where do i start to learn Fox, i know the game so you dont have to take it easy, a fox synopsis if you will

otherwise why not just look at the fox guides?
sorry i'm so unhelpful![]()

dude, you know like ... nothingLol, it means more than fuzzy being the best falcon in the UK, considering the ratio of fox's to falcons there.
i disagree.it's only a mindgame once you're deliberately punishing a specific habit of your opponent's.
This is true, but that doesn't prevent mindgames from being described, even with your definition. It just adds more to the description required.in any case, my point is really that mindgames is a tremendously overused word with no clear definition.
Joking aside, doing dumb **** is often really smart.I mindgame people by being bad.
...I play the same way against bad kids as I do against good kids.Joking aside, doing dumb **** is often really smart.
You know how playing against really really bad players is frustrating because all of the cool **** you know doesn't work on them?
I'm not trying to say "LOL PLAY BAD ITS 2 GUD LOL!"...I play the same way against bad kids as I do against good kids.
Running around in the game like your head is missing isn't good/cool. Take a lesson from this and you might find yourself able to compete with m2k ;]
yup. if i've noticed that my opponent sits in shield when i jump towards him and tomahawk grab him for that reason, then it's a mindgame. if i try it on an unknown opponent and it works, it was just a trick that happened to work.This is true, but that doesn't prevent mindgames from being described, even with your definition. It just adds more to the description required.
For example, if you consider "tomahawk grab" not a mindgame, then under your definition "if you notice that they tend to sit in shield and wait for you to hit their shield before acting a lot, then tomahawk grab sometimes" would be.
But yeah, "mindgames" used to be such a terrible overused term. Nobody uses it that way anymore though. I don't see the problem with it having a definition similar to "situation-specific trick that works because it plays on the opponents' expectations and/or by using misleading visual cues". That gives it a separate and still descriptive/applicable definition from "reads/punishing habits".
no. . . That's still mind games.yup. if i've noticed that my opponent sits in shield when i jump towards him and tomahawk grab him for that reason, then it's a mindgame. if i try it on an unknown opponent and it works, it was just a trick that happened to work.
