It's one of his best stages. I don't play it much simply because I would rather play RC/Corneria heh.

I completely agree with G&W being the best in teams. In teams my other characters are no where near G&W. Hate G&W dittos, well all in general. Cant wait to meet and play you guys.

Can I be on the list if I start using G&W more in tourney? I already play as him pretty good but mostly only in teams since I use Wario for singles. AND people at the last HOBO said my G&W was better than Hylian's.

Produce tourney results (I'm guessing you want to be under "Top Players"). I prefer singles, but Singles or Doubles work, but you need to show my a few vids and place well in large, noteworthy tourneys.

hey!... i posted my profile in page 4 and i was totally ignored by K 2 =(
You either have to contribute a lot here, or you have to place well in tourneys.

Why am I at the bottom K2?
Idk. Someone has to be at the bottom.

I prefer to have a few vids, so people can see why you are listed under "Top Players." However, if you place well in large tourneys (I believe HOBO is in your area?), I'll put you on the list.

^^when are you making your casual section, so people like me who can't get to tournies will have a chance to be mentioned?

(If that isn't happening, meh--sorry for bothering you)

Besides, he mains spotdodge and seconds airdodge.

but if you have everyone up there what makes the good players special from everyone else?
its somewhat of a "privilege" to be on here and see who is good and who to look up to and to listen to.

in other words. equality blows. :)

That's why there would be different sections. XP. It's equality, but not really. By having them in a place that is not like the, "Top Player" Section, they will still feel not as special as everyone, but still special in the fact that their name is displayed. XD.

I did post a profile of my own, but I suppose I'm not well enough known, or haven't placed high enough to be one of the "Top" But A2 can vouch for me. ;D

Not everyone can be on there, though. I gets the idea.

^^yeah, it's just the title led me to believe that is was gonna end up being as list of people who are regulars in the G&W board, just that it makes distinction between good, great, and unknown players.

Yes, I concur, although I have used G&W a lot more recently the past few weeks. Hylian and I did a ton of G&W Ditto's at a tournament last weekend for Winner's Finals and Grand Finals.

Also, just a tiny correction I main airdodge and second spotdodge, but hey what's the difference I love them both. With Wario, not G&W. Eww @ his airdodge and spotdodge lol.

I have two profiles, a serious one and a lulzy one to go with the "He may not play Gaw a lot, but hes ****ing DMG!" section. :o

Lulzy:

Name: dr. mario guy AKA DMG
Tag: Doc, DMG
Color (of your character): Cotton Candy (That's right, Cotton Candy IS a color)
Hometown: Waco
Currently Resides: Waco
Mains: Airdodge.
Secondaries: Spotdodge.
Melee Characters: SHOW ME YA MOVES!
Loves: Bacon.
Fears: Your mother.
Playstyle: Soooooooooo Defensive.
Favorite thing about Brawl: Taking a devastating sh** on your character.
Least Favorite thing about Brawl: The decision by Nintendo to give Wario the girth and costumes of two characters, but only 1 icon on the character selection screen.
Profile/Short Bio: I'm 16, I like long walks on the beach and Boobies. Thank you for your time.
Tournament Placings: 1st at most of the local tourneys so far, 4th to 2nd at a lot of the HOBO's, and recently I got 1st in a staring contest against a Hungarian Owl.
Pros beaten in tourneys or MM: Azen, Hylian, Dojo, and some other people.
Best video(s) of yourself: Maybe this---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4
Useful Threads: Not much for G&W, posting some in the stage discussions and in the general thread.

Now for the serious one:

Name: dr.mario guy, DMG
Tag: Doc, DMG
Color (of your character): Red for G&W
Hometown: Waco
Currently Resides: Waco
Mains: Wario
Secondaries: G&W, Diddy, Snake, IC's, DK, Olimar.
Melee Characters: Falco, Falcon, Dr. Mario, Mario, Fox, G&W, Marth.
Loves: Puzzles, good Chess games, good literature.
Fears: Getting rejected.
Playstyle: Forcing my opponent to do specific things and then punishing them. Also fairly defensive.
Favorite thing about Brawl: Lots of defensive options, slower pace means more strategic thought is required to succeed.
Least Favorite thing about Brawl: Some of the attributes on characters are just ridiculous if you are looking for balance.
Profile/Short Bio: My name is Bobby, I am 16, and I live in Waco, Texas. I never really went to Melee tournaments, mainly because I wasn't aware of a smash scene in my area until 06. Melee was slightly dying then, and I had trouble getting rides to play with the locals. Eventually Brawl came out and I picked up Wario and G&W from day 1. I started to notice the inner workings of moves amongst the characters and quickly developed an insight on the limitations of characters and focused on exploiting them whenever I played against them. There isn't a very big Brawl scene locally, and I caught the other cities attention when some of them came to the first local tourneys. Eventually I traveled with Dallas to HOBO's and started to place well among some of the best competition in Texas. I made a place for myself among the top in the State, just by playing at the tourneys and sometimes the day before the tourney (I honestly do not practice much at all).
Tournament Placings: 1st at most of the local tourneys, 4th at a few of the bigger HOBO's (Including the Hobo that DSF, M2K, Azen, Edrees, and other OOS people attended), and basically I usually am in the top 5 always.
Pros beaten in tourneys or MM: Azen, Hylian, Dojo, and a few other people.
Best video(s) of yourself: I will have a G&W vid up soon.
Useful Threads: I don't have any threads of my own here on these boards, but I do have a Wario matchup thread over on those boards.

Mr. Escalator

Name: Dylan
Tag: Mr. Escalator, MrEsc
Color (of your character): Gold
Hometown: Hudson, New Hampshire
Currently Resides: Hudson, New Hampshire
Mains: Game and Watch
Secondaries: Diddy Kong, Bowser, Mario
Melee Characters: G&W, Yoshi, Peach
Loves: Smash, various PC games, books, iced tea, etc.
Fears: The open ocean (and by extension, boats)
Playstyle: Hard to say: I do whatever it takes to get into my opponent's sphere and wreck havoc. I'm also quick to get back out and regroup with G&W's upB. Unfortunately, I sometimes find myself DIing back to my opponent after surviving a hit, and I have to stop myself from getting back into the ****. I'm fond of the tactical use of Chef, and whenever I find myself using it, it works. Also, I pride myself in good Vertical zoning; I use Utilt and offensive UpB's to keep my enemy in the prime spot, and try to follow up with Nairs and Uairs. My ground game could use it a bit of work, but it's coming along.
Favorite thing about Brawl: I like the "feel" of it; the game engine. It's more floaty than melee, and air dodging offstage wont get you killed. The defensive options in Brawl can force some serious prediction on how best to respond, and I enjoy it a lot. Another thing I like about it is footstool jumping. It can be combo'd into and is a good edgeguarding tool.
Also, the diversity in Brawl is amazing. We have a great selection of characters: Diddy creates items to use and abuse, Snake controls the whole field with planned explosives, and Lucario with his aura mechanic that either help his combo ability or his ability to kill, for examples.
Least Favorite thing about Brawl: I hate the random tripping mechanic. It's pretty dumb. I also dislike the small amount of time spent into the online part of Brawl. I mean, who plays Homerun contest online? SSE would be of been a better idea. It's just could of been executed much better, and maybe it would be a better source of practice with less lag.
Profile/Short Bio: First things first; I have four brothers. This is pretty much what got me into competitive smash. My two older brothers were good melee players who went and did a lot of nearby tournaments and lurked Smashboards, and I got into playing seriously through them. I did sort of miss the melee train, though. Anyways, Brawl came out and I wanted to get into it. I would practice a lot when I had free time in the training room mastering teching and glidetossing. Online became my source of constant playing when my brothers sort of stopped caring about the competitive scene and wont give me rides out of state, though they do play occasionally at the house. I've made a lot of good friends through Smash, and met some cool people in person attending tournaments. I can't wait to attend even more and *try* to make a decent name for myself.
Tournament Placings: Poor and poor. Most recent was 9th of 15, but the few that were there were good. OBM, Buuman, Darc, and Dazwa, for example. I'll be trying for better placement, though.
Pros beaten in tourneys or MM: Nobody of noteworthiness offline
Best video(s) of yourself: Nothing recent + nothing competitive
