Almost got Felix. Got 5th and beat two of the best players in PacNW, so I can't complain, as it's the best I've done in a long, long time.

Good ****skies verm.
Thanks, guys. Overall, I lost to Felix twice (pools and bracket--though I made such a stupid error [and by stupid, I mean horrifyingly ********] in game 2, where Felix was at 140, and I was at 70 or so. I tried to be flashy and SDed. djkibn wpif bn[oln[ and lost to Weruop's Olimar. Beat Xnpio's Kirby, Jamn's Snake and ROB, Bladewise's Marth and Dr. Robotnik's Yoshi.
Here're some of the videos:

Me vs. Bladewise is at 2:35:00 - I made some weird errors like Dsmashing twice in a row and wizkicking backwards. Also, in the third match, I gerudo'd like 3 times when I meant to wizkick his landing.

Me vs. Jamnt0ast is at 00:06:43
I'll post all of 'em once they're actually on Youtube.

Snake once asked Otacon if he even stood a chance against Ganondorf. Vermanubis proved that no; no he doesn't.
Man Koskinator's legendary thread will never be topped.
Ever.
This board should have just been shut down after that, and that thread should have been the sole sticky, lasting forever as a beacon of greatness.
Oh hey Ganons.

The ganon boards were incredible 3-4 years ago. It was like there was actually a community, instead of people just randomly popping in and posting.

I can certainly believe that, especially with the two Ganon Community Combo videos I saw on Youtube showcasing players I have yet to see post on these boards since the day I joined.

Well why don't people do that again? because that is pretty awesome! :D
Claire Diviner

Not sure. I suppose these boards could use an update for a community video? I mean, I have a few clips I can donate for such a purpose myself, actually.
Tricky Shadowe

That would be awesome. Because I have been playing against this awesome Ganon player. He continuously beats me. I don't think Ganon is bad. I think he is awesome and powerful. Every character has some flaws, right? So does that make this the worst? I think not.
Hell, if I had some videos, I would put them up too.

I'll be honest...our current Ganon players aren't nearly as good as our players from the last CCV. If we make one now, it will be worse, and therefore redundant.
If you guys want to do one for ****s and giggles though, contact Makke. He PMed me about a week ago saying he wanted to do another CCV. I told him the same thing I'm telling you guys. If you decide to make one anyways, I'll be happy to throw in some clips.

Eh. My Ganon's decent enough, though I only have wi-fi experience more than offline, so I don't really know if that means anything at all.

I also wish you the best. I wish everyone the best at any tourney. Even myself, win or lose I at least tried. Ja?
I dunno, Bloody. Inland Empire Smash was my first tourney in like half a year or more and I got 5th. Just get in a lot of friendlies beforehand. I've noticed that the only thing that really suffers after a hiatus is timing, but it comes back pretty quickly.

while that is true my area has played me A LOT and know most of my gimmicks and what not.... so i don't really have a trick up my sleeve
Heartstring
Smash Legend
If it's been a long time, Then maybe theyve long since forgotten the tricks?
After all, People don't tend to make an effort to remember ganondorf tomfoolery
Also I just looked through my old videos, I have so many swagtastic moments with my ganon that need to be shared (and one from my friend too)
Don't rely on gimmicks then.

Says the man who used the murder balls to edgeguard a R.O.BDon't rely on gimmicks then.
HOW IS THAT A GIMMICK?!
UTilt is a good option against someone who's on the ledge! NO ONE BELIEVES ME. Seriously though, Bloody, just don't rely on what are obviously one-time tricks. That isn't to say don't use them, but don't rely on them, i.e. don't CP Brinstar and hope people run into a frame-extended FSmash. Not to say that's what you do or anything, but just an example of a Gannick (Ganon gimmick
).
Despite disbelief in the notion, Ganon's actually more capable of mix-ups than a lot of characters in the game. If they adjust to one style of play, Ganon has other options. For instance, the ROB GP spoke of, Jamt0ast, has played me before as well. He was used to my Aerudos approaches at first, but I knocked it off for a bit, then went back to Aerudos and kept switching. Ganon can win without gimmicks!

"Their anguish was my nourishment."
Utilt is pretty good against people on the ledge because it has deceptively little ending lag, which leads to a lot of missed punishes.
Then again, most people aren't going to get hit by it regardless, which means you wasted a potential opportunity to punish your opponent's attempt to get back on stage from the ledge.

I swear i must be the only one who sees the trollfaces that i post these days >.<
Its a gimmick in the sense that It's such a wierd choice that it throws opponents off, What DLA says about it is true though
And vern is right bloody, Certain one time tricks can only get you so far (e.g: super frame extended eruption on Castle seige) But learning some solid mixups (e.g: switching around your Followups after a stomp at low percents) can be the deciding factor
Plus, If you manage to make your opponent fear ganon/doubt themselves, You can rip them to pieces
