really? i don't even light shield and i shield it pretty consistently. i really don't take a lot of shield damage from samus lol


edit- roman i see you there. i brought ur controller and everything, where you at?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Double post cause i can

I got 5th place today only losing to Dart and Rat.

 

[unknown522]

congrats. Good work.

 

[omgwtfToph]

omfg I tried playing brawl teams friendlies today

holy **** that game is boring as ****. also metaknight is really good o_O

 

[Palpi]

I started with brawl mainly...don't play ever again

 

[unknown522]

I can still count on my hands how many times I've played brawl...

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

congrats. Good work.

I'm a little upset about my set with rat. I know I can beat him if I play right, but game 1 he suicided his last 2 stocks by just getting caught under battlefield and then he suicided first stock game 2. Hes my friend so I really felt bad and I think I held a back because of it. He stepped it up the rest of game 2 and game 3 and took the win. Reneblade recorded all the matches from the tournament so they should be up soon!

aww, that sucks. I feel bad when friends play bad in tourneys, or SD in a stupid way. Kinda reminds me of my last 2 recent sets vs Raynex, where he SDs at crucial times.

I'll check the vids when they are up.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

That sucks. Did you guys have a tournament yesterday?

How did the other foxes do yesterday?

 

[unknown522]

oh no, not yesterday. The last time we played at a tourney was 2 weeks ago.

We did have a fest yesterday at Idea's place though. I'm still over with weon-x, KK, Riddlebox, and a new girl.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

canada has girl smashers? where do i sign up?

 

[Divinokage]

You guys have Saffy, but she's mine now. =)

And.. NO MERCY FOR ANYONE IN TOURNAMENT!! SDs are part of the tournament, no 2nd chances!!!

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Who is Saffy? There are some girl brawl players... but they play brawl lol

 

[Divinokage]

So? Melee or Brawl who cares.. if she's amazing as a person then that's all that matters to me. =)

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Kage being the warrior with the ladies lolol

 

[Divinokage]

Kage being the warrior with the ladies lolol

Of course, I have to be nice and reliable. =)

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Lol a role model for all!

 

[Silent Wolf]

how does a fox thread go into a gannon player and a brawl girl lol.

 

[battousai555]

I've seen SilentSpectre SD when his opponent SDs many a time. What a gentleman!

Hell should I know! Maybe if the little foxes said something, it would help. =)

 

[Crooked Crow]

I think the girl player Unknown is referring to is named Corona, she mains Samus.

Pretty solid, too.

 

[lanabo]

Are there any disadvantages to holding down from the fastfall after the aerial in order to shine as soon as possible after the L-cancel? I'm finding it difficult to shine out of super late nairs without doing so (I keep getting the blaster instead), but I normally return the control stick to the neutral position before landing for each SHFFL.

So yeah, should I just get faster at pressing down+B after the fast fall or is holding down from the FF a reasonable way of shining after SHFFL?

 

[PK Webb]

definitely hold down

Holding down option selects ASDI down during ur aerial which combined with your lcancel option selects a tech.

She hot?

 

[KAOSTAR]

quit claiming smash has option selects that are worth talking about. you typically want the best option and in most cases that same option select can work against you. the only one that ive been thinking of that may or may not work is trying to option select a grounded attack out of a power shield by using shield stun to keep u locked in your shield.

if u hold down as a practice the real benefit is that you won't have trouble on platforms with aerial shines.. I go to neutral and sometimes dj cuz ive fallen thru the platform and then hit jump. in general its easier aka less steps, but I feel I can Di(lack of a better term) my aerials better.

and asdi down from the air isn't always the best option....gotta think combo vs survival di, so I wouldn't be trying to option select that.

anyway, if u get hit at the time u would have hit l u won't be able to tech for 40 frames. if u light tap so that doesn't effect you then u dont enter your tech cycle so it doesn't matter.

 

[JPOBS]

how does a fox thread go into a gannon player and a brawl girl lol.

this happens literally every time kage posts.

 

[Divinokage]

this happens literally every time kage posts.

Should I just stop posting? I mean, it's not my fault I'm so awesome. =) j/k

 

[Brookman]

quit claiming smash has circle jumps that are worth talking about. .

But in all seriousness, Melee does not have option selects. Using the term will just cause CONFUSION.

 

[Walt]

Yeah, it actually has picking options. Which is different but indeed very confusing.

 

[unknown522]

canada has girl smashers? where do i sign up?

do you have a passport?

But yeah, we have 2 girls that come often. One's a jiggs main, the other's a samus <_<

You guys have Saffy, but she's mine now. =)

And.. NO MERCY FOR ANYONE IN TOURNAMENT!! SDs are part of the tournament, no 2nd chances!!!

haha.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

My passport is still active from my last trip to germany!

 

[Strong Badam]

this is late but Kage: saffy is obviously mine

 

[Eggz]

roflmfao @ the circle jumping tangent

 

[unknown522]

I remember when Raynex was obsessed with triangle jumping in matchups back in 2005/2006.

Especially vs marth.

 

[L__]

you ever have those days where everything just feels off?

what do you do then? play through it? when I'm having those days it feels like Fox is the worst character

 

[Palpi]

I have those days every now and than. I would just do solo practice for 10-15 minute then stop playing. Playing through it makes it hurt more hahaha

 

[genkaku]

is it possible to shinespike after an arial dair?

 

[Brookman]

I mean. . . assuming you mean that the opponent is recovering and you dair'd them below the edge. . of course.


@ L. I think everyone has those days. Personally, I can't play unless I am able to perform at a certain level. If I can't even wavedash consistently I will definitely not be playing (at least, I won't be playing fox)
