Do you have any tips for me, tourney-wise, not skill wise? Stuff like mentality and what to expect at a tourney, and how to prepare for it.
You'll feel nervous I'm the first match. If you have not played offline in a while or ever, you will not be able to time anything due to wifi muscle memory.

Basically, all you can do is keep cool. If you are winning, don't get too cocky and change your playstyle. If you are losing, don't freak out. Just try to adjust to what they are doing and play accordingly. If your opponent has the momentum, try to QAC backwards and camp for a while to neutralize the momentum. If you have the momentum, keep the pressure on, but do so in a smart way, otherwise you will be punished and have the momentum shift.

He'll come back and say "I should have followed this advice more"

Yeah probably, tournament noobs always go under pressure. But i remember my 3rd tournament (melee) i got 5th, but i couldn't focus the last match because people were yelling. Oh yeah, that reminds me.

WHEN YOU ARE PLAYING, IGNORE EVERYBODY!!!

You will NOT be able to focus if you are paying attention to other people. Only with experience are you able to talk or at least pay attention. For instance, since nobody will know you, you will probably not have a crowd cheering for you or rooting for you. That means you will have to ignore everybody when you are playing. Do not get distracted. This is MUCH different from online because you can only be bothered by your family, but for they most part you probably leave you alone. At tournaments, people will most likely leave you alone, but trust me, focus solely on the game. When you aren't playing, try to go to the brackets and see who you might be playing next. Then, watch those people for their characters/playing style so you will know how you can play against them. GL

Oh and the first video of me vs KLo is up! (>_> Fricken 150 MB size videos take like 3 hours to load)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZdlkFfJnI4

And this match is more so just me vs the stage..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVYucTP00HM

WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY...

and KLo wants you all to critique her.
Thank you, Ussi! I'm going to make a new thread for this, guys, so it doesn't clutter up this one.

I didn't know Kaylo was a girl O.o. I swear, pikachu has the most female players...
;) I guess I could see how you'd be surprised... Pika is quite the manly character for a young lady....

Seriously, though, most people don't catch on that I'm female for a while. I guess I don't make it blatantly obvious or anything.

Pikachu is both cool and cute. :pikachu2:, OH YEAH!
So no wonder so many people are joining pika, he appeals to EVERYONE.

I'm back from break. Looks like not too much went on here except a random argument and new years.

everyone: get skype!!

I dug up my microphone and downloaded the program just to talk so I'll probably be on tomorrow to test it out...wee!

and I'm sad that I wasn't able to battle anyone while I was away in Michigan :( I realized that the only computer there didn't have wireless internet, and I didnt want to go buy an adapter. I'm still on break until the 21st or something though.

oh yeah. update on the site this week. it'll be big-ish o_o!

Guess what!?
I got a new computer! No more warning screens telling me I have 1568 viruses on my computer every 10 minutes (no, that's not a hyperbole. That actually was the exact number of viruses it said I had.. -__-

For the members that actually came to mwcc....... great stuff! King yoshi fino and anther. Oh stealth, i beat fino in a set =p he made tired johns but we never got our rematch in =(
oh and my pikachu has drastically improved from watching everyone of anthers matches. I beat kel 3/5 me 3 him 0. With two of them being one being a two stock. Me and king yoshi made it far in doubles....but king yoshi thought it would be a smart idea to toadstool a link that was already dead, then king yoshi grabbed the ledge and link up b with on the very last hit of it hitting ddd and ledge spikeing him ftw for legans team.......what a sad moment that was. xD stealth i need some help against ddd. That guy is HEAVY
