i played brawl for the first time the other night,and Im going with pika.he's mad buffed,down smash+thunder=death for most between 90 and 100%.His forward smash is really strong too like you said.Plus he's got a realllllly good recovery.a couple of times I was sure i was dead and he made it back to the ledge.Just gotta be careful of ikes.He's also good. You could spam his downsmash and scrubs will cry. His fsmash is death, and his recovery is pretty nifty. Somewhat light, but not nearly as bad as Kirby and the like.
Thanks. I knew how to get ZSS, I just wanted to make sure that, like Sheik, she was available from the starting roster. I guess she would have to be, since she'd appear if Samus got the smash ball anyway. Dumb question.Its been confirmed that Gamestop will supply you with all 4 controllers.
You can only use the Starting Roaster.
You can play as ZZS by Holding the R button when selecting the Character, not when the stage is loading like you would with Sheik.
Skyworld is kind of dangerous for most characters. If you're on the bottom platform you can get stage spiked waaaaayyy to easily. Everytime I play with my friends theres at least 2 or 3 deaths a match from that on the level. But then again I play Ike and his knockback makes people fly straight down so fast after hitting the top platform.I'm expecting about 1/4 of the people coming to the tournament in my area to be people who are just interesed in the game, AKA complete Newcomers to smash. 1/2 played/have melee and want Brawl, and the other quarter are competitive players. If this is the case, I should have no problem up until about the third or fourth battle.
Another quick tip, if you have the oppurtunity to choose your stage, choose one that benefits your character. IE: Heavy Characters should choose Shadow Moses Island, so they will bounce around in the walls and die harder. Characters with good recovery should choose a stage like Skyworld with pass-through platforms. Light characters should choose not as open stages. For instance, don't choose like standard stages like Port Town.
I'm not finding this anywhere in the rules...It says Game Controllers, but not Gamecube Controllers.It says right in the gamestop rules that they will be providing gamecube controllers. This should be updated in the main post.
we suspect starting roster only so no marf.I'm gonna play metaknight because I'm comfortable with him from what I've played but I really hope I can get that kill in a minute, and also I don't wanna get ****ed over by my weight. light weight + items and super = probably going to die.
Marth's FS is amazing though so he might be a good choice since everyone is used to him. I'd play Ike if I had used him before.
Oh, right, I forgot. Fun can only be had with items on high, no Final D, "fun characters only."I hope they play with Wii remotes, items on medium, random stages (BF and Final D banned), all characters, and referees for exploits/glitches just to prove to you guys that a game can be fun.
Because this is what you guys sound like:
"Dude just KO that friggin' casual n00b once and the match will be yours. Those casuals don't know the game if it was shoved right infront of their face! xD! Use the top tiers because those new***s will probably use a low tier because it's their 'favorite'!"
And I'm looking at you, MookieMoo, or whatever the hell your name is. You sound like a complete idiot in your first post. Oh wait, you guys are too hardcore for names. Sorry, I should have said "tag".
Gamestop Tournaments are supposed to be challenging AND fun. Fun and easygoing is really where you tourneytards fall short. You use characters that are "better" and "more powerful" and "Top Tiers". What happened to using the character that you considered your "favorite" or the "coolest", like in the old days when there were no glitches to exploit?
You guys make me sick.
If South Carolina is SC, there's plenty of them.Dang...none in South Carolina looks like im gonna have to go to North Carolina.. -.-
this guy knows what he's talking about.flame war imminent. DON'T DO IT, don't rise to the flamebait, don't feed the troll.
don't forget his recovery is a bit odd.I'm either going DeDeDe because chaingrabbing is pretty easy and with someone who hasn't played the game before it won't be hard to land a grab, or just use someone like Diddy who can easily back throw -> using bair to edge guard, even with the auto sweetspot.
Did you just escape from /v/ or something? Seriously, there was just a RAEG thread about Mookie's tips earlier. This thread is a bit condescending towards casual players but geez. Take a chill pill.I hope they play with Wii remotes, items on medium, random stages (BF and Final D banned), all characters, and referees for exploits/glitches just to prove to you guys that a game can be fun.

YOU CAN WIN A FREE COPY OF BRAWL IF YOU PLAY TO WIN. Screw having fun, I'll do that when I get home with my free copy of the game that I got beating people that were having fun, hahaha.
Quite.seriously don't go there, this thread is too awesome to get derailed.
aha, but why stop there?For all the new guys in this thread, you guys need to go back and read up on the earlier pages. Myself and others have already gone through a whole bunch of tips and strategies to nearly guarantee a victory over every non-competitive player at the gamestop tournament.
