Hmm...I recently picked up Pit.

I found out, I'm not that bad with him.

I picked a Random Character, against a Random LV9, on Final Destination.

I did this 10 times.

7 out of the 10 times, I got Pit.

Out of those times, I did not lose once.

So, I started using him against other LV9's. One of each character.

boom.

So, My new secondary(Sorry, Diddy,) is Pit.
So you play a terrorist
and a flaming homosexual

Is the list characters that you play really well? Cause I play like 2-3 other characters that can easily be my secondaries.
Those are characters someone would normally use in tournament brackets. That's all that matters anyway. If I made a list of people with all their characters it would be ridiculous lol.

Choosing a character based off of CPU matches is pointless. First of all, choose a character that you enjoy using but is still decent. Stick with that character and find things out on your own. Don't read character-specific boards. Instead, go to training mode with your character and find new approaches, possible strings of attacks, kill percents, new uses for attacks, priority of attacks, etc. Writing your findings down is not necessary but it can help. After a few hours in training mode you should know the in's and out's of your character, depending on how technical they are. Hardly anyone does this because they would just rather play, but I did this and I feel I improved with mr. G&W faster than any other character that I would just play with against people or CPUs. Once you have a bunch of strategies theorized, test them out against people (not CPUs), and if they work, then awesome, if they don't, then it's ok.

Here's an example I found:
Mr. G&W vs fastfallers
approach with SHFF unsweetspotted nair
that strings into unsweetspotted uptilts (makes it almost a "lock")
uptilt like 4-6 times
then choose your next move based on your opponent's reaction
if the opponent air dodges -> downsmash them, and proceed to edgeguard if you get them offstage
if the opponent jumps -> up-b them, follow up with an aerial
if the opponent uses a downair -> shieldgrab, upthrow, predict airdodges or downairs
if the opponent does nothing -> nair chain

Then, I tested this "combo" against people on wifi. It works really good for the most part, and I can deal on average 45%. Some things I noticed though is that your opponent can Smash DI out of the uptilts, or if they are Fox they can shine and escape.

I like to call these "combos" mindgame combos because they place your opponent in really bad situations where they have to decide how to escape using limited options.

I found a lot of other stuff, but I don't want to give everything away here ;)

But, you see, I can't practice on people.

My only form of practice is on CPUs.

Training isn't really helpful, because, if you set them to attack, they're still a CPU, and if they Walk, Jump, or Stand, it's not going to be a very good representation of a human player's playing.

In short, I'm screwed!

no johns.

You're not really practicing, you're just testing new things out. By the way, I put the CPU on "stand".

Also, doesn't your uncle play? Play with him, but instead of having real matches just agree that it's more of "training mode with humans".

Because you can totally do that in tournament mirite?

I should Wi-Fi six too. Maybe he has a better connection with me than Albino. <___<

/mad that Dirty South Internet doesn't work well with other Dirty South Internets.

yes, give them all out as a little snack.

then watch them all rush to the WABA bathroom.

And, if you REALLY wanna play, my FC's on the side.

Just be prepared for lag.

Tong you've inspired me. Seriously.

I'm trolling in real life now.

lol man that was amazing. If only usmashes saved me in every match-up I didn't know (glares at Tong's Kirby and how 3/4 of my moves were Usmashes: playing dumb johns).

Maybe in Melee. With Fox. On Greens Greens. In Lightning Melee.

It was Marth and the suction-cup effect. I will be using this in tournament. On the 16th. On your Wii. With or without hacks.

It'll be there.

It wasn't just him. It's alot of other reasons why he doesn't play. However, he did make a fuss out of that even though I got screwed in the same tourney. (like, I think he did it for a week later after the tourney was done).

Why not just keep using the character you prefer to use in tournament. Whenever I lose, to whatever character, or tactic, it's not going to make me change mains. Why not keep using your character to find out what went wrong and fix that mistake. Falco doesn't have alot of bad match ups but his bad ones(ICs) aren't going to scare me into using a better character or one that has an advantage. You're not going to learn anything. I think people that have secondaries are either afraid of a match up or too lazy to actually push their limits to actually learn what they have to do. Or they could like more than one character.



Actually, %65 of GA doesn't go to tournaments.
because your character is already ****ing broken... why don't YOU try maining Peach, if you thought i was being lazy, chump. :mad:

on a side note, i wanna play GGXX friday at ZOM-B's, especially since it is fairly close to where i live. does any one even play GGXX besides me...?

I've already mentioned bringing a setup for it. So if we both end up being there, I need you to teach me Jam, mod my brother's PS2, and burn me a copy of Persona 4.
