Try to not stomp too much and do not neglect his ground game - learning how to buffer dtilt after AC aerials or defensive maneuvers [dodge and roll] really boosts your ground game quite a bit. Don't be that scared to use aerial side-B for a lot of opponents choose to shield when the opponent is airborne anticipating an aerial.

Personally, I think character purism is counterproductive if you want to be respected as a player. However, some people, like Verm for example, are looking to gain something else from the game. There's an undeniable sense of pride in pulling upsets with Ganon.

Ganon is so fun to play.

Lol, I can't believe I never lost with him on FL tournaments.
Just on friendlies though. I use Kirby in a tournament.

DLA's right as far as my personal MO, but I think that you can get respect as a Ganon pure (respect out of as well as in the game). The way I see it, going pure Ganon isn't a waste unless you feel you could place in the money with someone better (and even then I still don't think it's a waste if you do it for the right reasons). I guess the best way I could analogize it would be to say it's comparable to owning a local restaurant and receiving an offer for subsidization. Taking the latter offer isn't shameful or anything, but there's something to be said for the restaurateur who opts for autonomy at the cost of lower income.

Again, that isn't to say Ganon pures or character pures should be praised and lauded, or people with secondaries condemned, but yeah, that's just my opinion on the subject.

I propose that this time, GP treats us each to a pint of Guinness, like a proper lad.

Seriously though we should all meet at a bar during one of the nights. Or even just a restaurant or something, if some of us can't/don't want to drink. First round is on me!

There were a few cool bars and breweries by APEX.

Specifically, this brewery one road away from the hilton.

Oh silly USA with their 21 age limit on alcohol. It's simply ******** when you can drive at 16 and drink at 21 >_>

Yeah but that is no reason to make such a ******** age difference for them. Reckless drinking can be bad, but it's up to you and it's not really dangerous, no reason to have it that high really.
Driving can result in danger to others as well and if you really let a 16 old drive... Well, not cool. But yeah you guys can't even measure distances correctly so there is a lot wrong there :)

nonono, You know what is stupid? The fact that-at 18-I'm old enough to fly to america completely alone, but I'm not allowed to book a hotel room for myself and myself only

I don't see any reason why all the stuff shouldn't be legal at like the same age, which is pretty much always 18 here. Just weird to be able to have a gun but not be able to like, drink something?
