I hope that isn't a reference to how you ***** me in falcon dittos. LOL <3Tom: Haha, great to meat you.
mewtwo? pikachu? Certainly not against meBut you're using as an example two players who will go Pokefloats and pick Mewtwo or Corneria and pick Pikachu.
xD this is going somewhere speciali too got distracted by full metal sexyness especially during our mm i was only a stock from beating you and your pepe popped out and smaked me in the face result epic failure
i lost because i played iori first str8 up. that and some collge chick attempt to have sex with me along with full metal. i craped my pants!!!![]()
No I tried not to offend you johns. I am on to you.I meant wierd in a good way NES. I hope I did'nt offend you.
I said that learning stages and characters are the most skillful. Being good on some stage is great and all but you gotta have a character you can play well to go along with that stage, which is why I can play a wider variety of characters to help out with that. And Pikachu is super better than Fox vs Peach on Corneria, I just didn't want to upset you so much again >_>, when you E. Honda'd your face that one time, it was kinda awkward.mewtwo? pikachu? Certainly not against me
When the **** hits the fan, both chad and iori will pick fox and go straight for corneria. They play mewtwo and pikachu on those stages because they enjoy playing those characters and it is also the characters they have the most experience with (maybe Iori can argue that he has equal experience with like 5 characters but thats aside the point). Those 2 understand perfectly well that Fox on corneria is their best chance of winning, because its simply the best tactic. If a tournament allows for Corneria, and you want to win and know fox well enough why not go to corneria? Chad and Iori play well within the rules and their right when they pick those stages. (I'll say my only counter to that is to hopefully complain enough to make them guilty for picking the stage, and perhaps to not pick it at all... but that hasnt worked too well). But you have to understand I understand clearly that those are the rules and who am I to say they cant really go there? Any argument i've had about the stages at tournament really dont boil down to "you shouldnt take me there" (although I may say it because I dont want to go there). But the real problem is once again "why is this stage allowed in the first place?"
Chad has told me he believes that learning different stages is what he believes gives the game depth and "skill" to work with. I say that when learning a stage boils down to who can be the most patient with Fox or falco that it detracts from the game.
I love you, Pikachad.I just didn't want to upset you so much again >_>, when you E. Honda'd your face that one time, it was kinda awkward..
The reason I didn't win is because my entire crew started in the same half of the winner's bracket, and fed into the same half of the loser's bracket. And because I was too distracted by Fullmetal's sexiness ^_^
i too got distracted by full metal sexyness especially during our mm i was only a stock from beating you and your pepe popped out and smaked me in the face result epic failure
its ok alpha i got you next time we will fight for the blackest smasher alive!!!!
i lost because i played iori first str8 up. that and some collge chick attempt to have sex with me along with full metal. i craped my pants!!!![]()
I think I love you guys! <3xD this is going somewhere special FULLMETAL SEXINESS
I understand what you mean but my point is that while you say that the fun is in learning a variety of characters and stages, I am saying that you are not getting variety because the game boils down to something far more shallow than I would like to see from melee.I said that learning stages and characters are the most skillful. Being good on some stage is great and all but you gotta have a character you can play well to go along with that stage, which is why I can play a wider variety of characters to help out with that. And Pikachu is super better than Fox vs Peach on Corneria, I just didn't want to upset you so much again >_>, when you E. Honda'd your face that one time, it was kinda awkward.
Everyone has the same opportunity to be good with every character and to learn every stage that's legal for you to use, I don't see what the argument is. If you just refuse to learn characters/stages then that's your weakness and it can be exploited.
Also the first match is always a neutral, which means if you should be capable of winning the first match, shouldn't you be capable of winning the set since you get the counterpick advantage anyway?
Maybe it's just me, but having counterpicks adds another layer of strategy which I love behind an already great game.
No offense dude, but please shut up. Shut the hell up. If you were JMAN, I'd have some respect for you, but since you're J*****AndMoan, I don't give half a sh*t what you have to say, as many times as I've seen your name up on the top 10 list. I said nothing about camping being a problem, I said it's incredibly annoying when I'm just trying to play to win on 3 hours of sleep, and there's always some douche motherf*cker who wants to run my patience dry 2 rounds before winner's finals.I might do shoutouts later. I rarely do and I probably should... Some people definitely need to be commented on their beastliness (especially a certain noob and a certain male sheep). I just wanted to comment on what this thread has turned into:
I didn't win because I played people who were better than me. Like, it wasn't fair at all! I would start playing with them, and then they'd beat me because they were outplaying me. That was the ONLY reason I lost. If they weren't better than me, I know I could have won. Like RAM's luigi was all up in my grill and he wouldn't let me hit him much! I can't win if I'm being beaten! No fair guys. No fair. D4mn tourney***s.
I think XIF has said some legit things. At first I thought he was talking like a grade-A scrublet, but now I think he's just trying to explain why he thinks some stages should be banned. Which is legit. For new stages to be banned you have to have some people that voice WHY it should be banned. XIF thinks Corneria should be banned because it rewards camping too much, that's fine. I don't think that's any different than banning Onett because it rewards up-kills too much. Personally I don't think Corneria should be banned, but I think it's fine for him to talk about it. (On a side note, I personally think Brinstar should be banned even though I use it as a counterpick. It's way to advantageous for floaty characters, and can **** the Hell out of space animals.)
So XIF, I have no problem with your posts. (Though I do think you john at tournaments sometimes IRL ...)
But Chaddd. You gotta realize that you are sounding like a good ol' Sirlin-scrub. I was incredibly surprised to read your posts, because I figured someone with as much tournament experience and skill as you have wouldn't have a scrub mindset. First of all, how can you say camping never works against people with enough tournament experience? I can think of a few pros from multiple games who would tell you differently (Vidjo and Justin Wong, off the top of my head). I'm sorry you have to learn more about the game and how to play on certain stages in order to win tournaments. But, uh, that's the game as it has come to be in the US tournament scene. You could go the XIF route and argue why those stages should be banned, but you can't just outright say camping is stupid.
Is camping fun? It's definitely frustrating. I'm the first to admit that. I absolutely despise playing Jigglypuffs, just because I hate the Wall of Pain camping style (more recently I hate playing them because of easy rest kills against Sheik....SOFT...). I find Jigglypuffs to be quite frustrating, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna make a rant where I cry about how Jigglypuffs suck and they only win because they outspace me.
Chaddd, I'm sorry Pikachad and Iori play to win. I'm sorry if they are willing to do whatever is in the ruleset to give them the best chance of winning. If camping lets Iori/Chad beat you, wouldn't they be stupid to not utilize it? And I think you forget that Iori and Chad has OTHER styles of play. I have seen both of them camp and both of them play aggressively. Generally, they simply do whatever they think maximizes their chances of winning. Against you, that strategy is apparently camping. You say camping ultimately doesn't win and someone with enough experience should be able to get past it. Well....
Prove it.
Who could've seen this coming?I am quite disgruntled
