Aka diddy just got BETTER

This isn't newwwwwwwwwwwwwww, I thought you knew everythingggggggggggggggggggg

Scared to ask but does that mean role play?

Says the guy who pretends to be his new Falcon amiibo.

Oh ****, Trela telling it like it is today. 2/2 so far.

 

[Fliphopper]

This was in Brawl. I did this in against Olimar match up to zdrop nair. Not game changing.

 

[Xyro77]

Oh that's what it is? It looks different than what I saw in brawl cause Samus could do it. Now she can't.

 

[RT]

That's because zair is too good. You can't have zair and this. Guess you must cut off your zair.

 

[Xyro77]

But Zair got Nerfed in this game.

 

[RT]

I don't care about personal problems. Chop off that zair.

 

[Fliphopper]

Feels like most of the techniques they're announcing are just brawl techniques with a fancy presentation to get views.

Hmm, advertising old things as new to get viewers. Now why would someone do that, just lie on the Internet?

I called the Alex **** back in 2010. Used to talk to him on AIM and in the MLP Xat. Something was just never right about him. Glad he was exposed.

Also, Diddy's dumb, and Tesh is wrong again. Sonics are losing to Diddys everywhere.

 

[kj22]

How is the diddy vs Rosa mu? I was seeing xaltis (I believe) use some aeriel (dair maybe?) trade with diddy every time the diddy went for down throw shenanigans.
Diddy can't play exactly like normal due to luma.

 

[z00ted]

lmao @ pay your life points for the rest of your life

 

[kj22]

And have we even seen diddy vs peach

 

[BC.]

Villager has a good matchup against Diddy imo.
1. Pocket the banana so he won't have bananas for mostly the entire match
2. Lingering hitbox of d-air + Villager's ability to stay offstage for a long time means Villager is very good at hitting Diddy out of his up-B recovery, no matter how he mixes it up.

 

[Sinister Slush]

Dunno about that since he can just be near the roof and start charging his barrels sideways and still be able to control where he lands and how he goes in the air.

I'll try to be honest here without being mean. You are probably still the best Sonic but your philosophy holds you back. The other Sonics that are doing well aren't even close to your level and they are still doing things like taking M2K to game 5 and placing in the top 10% consistently.

We are seeing low level Sonics on the come up narrowly losing to internationally recognized players and its suddenly evidence of how the matchup isnt fair.

Rosa is so versatile in theory, but in practice being super light and a huge target isn't helping in the matchup. Luma doesn't stop him from throwing you as long as he does it ASAP and gets away from it quick. Diddy also doesn't care about trading with a dair as long as the uair hit you and killed you. Heck, bouncing him into the ground might just get you upaired again.

She is also a bit exploitable off stage too.

 

[Zano]

sooooo, anyone making plans for evo?

 

[Espy Rose]

6WX is the only Sonic not consistently losing to Diddy at the moment, and even then, he still loses to them.
Florida has the best Sonics besides 6WX, and they all lose to Diddy too.

Also, I'm an old man, and a stubborn git. I don't care about being the best any more. I just want to have fun.

 

[BlueBirdE]

Smash 4 and melee for evo. Guess I don't need popcorn for reddit tonight afterall

 

[RT]

B-but...PM...

 

[UltimateRazer]

Evo Smash 4 will be maximum hype if Mew Two is released by then AND Diddy is nerfed.

 

[Xyro77]

The ruleset determins if I go or not. I won't spend $500 or more for 2 stocks.

 

[Espy Rose]

I wanna go but monies. ; ;

 

[UltimateRazer]

Unfortunately it'll be 2 stocks. It's FGC oriented so they'll go with what's fastest and most "entertaining." It would be cool as the only OOS trip of the year for me though.

 

[BlueBirdE]

Line ups bigger than last year so things will have to be faster paced. Most likely it'll be 2 stocks

Oh crap 2 stocks. Welp.

 

[UltimateRazer]

Well that's what I'm assuming it'll be.

 

[RT]

Shoot, I have to use part of my vacation, so I would be down to go if a lot of Houston people decide to go...

 

[Xyro77]

if what I am reading on Twitter is true, Prog/d1 have been talking to Evo about 2 stocks.

Guess I'll stay in the castle I created. Let the armies come to me under my terms instead of me going to them under their terms.

 

[alex mora]

Gonna try to go to EVO, it's the weekend after my bday, gonna do some regrettable Vegas things

So dramatic

 

[Xyro77]

So dramatic

Not at all. I am a true believer in "Don't like? DONT GO!"


It's interesting though how Trela/razer and even FlipHop are slowly seeing the light.

 

[Teshie U]

I firmly believe that 2 and 3 stocks makes no real difference in how enjoyable the game is.

33% more or less of something will still be good or bad. Anyone saying watching 2 stock 6 minutes of bull**** is somehow entertaining is just being delusional.

We are not suddenly going to fall in love with Diddy Kong Uairing you out of 2 stocks instead of 3.

I really only would favor 2 stocks if it meant more tournaments running pools, doing bo5 for not 8-16 instead of top 3 etc. These changes would counteract the risk of taking too small of a sample size in a competition. But many of the TOs pushing for this kind of thing just want to run events quickly without enforcing rules, running brackets on time or DQing celeb status players who hold up events.

 

[Xyro77]

When a TO alters a status quo rule (stocks/timer) due to stream viewership or speed of an event, this is when you have truly lost your purpose as a TO.

 

[Oni•n]

Are there any smash fests happening this weekend by any chance? I need to practice for TGC.

 

[UltimateRazer]

I've always been in favor of 3 stock now that I've learned to kill. Although, Sonic players make me want to play 1 stock only cause UGH. Unfortunately, 2 stocks seems to be winning :/ But if you host 3 stocks, I will always go to those for sure.

First and foremost the game needs to be enjoyable to play and compete in.

Of course you could also be the kind of TO that doesn't listen to the people that DO attend your events.

At least those 2 stock folks are listening to someone...

Razer what sonic has got you so salty? I usually hear you complain about Sonic but don't really recall you losing to any, especially in brawl

 

[Fliphopper]

I'm deciding if I should go to Vegas for EVO.

Brawl has nothing to do with this lol. It comes from a combination of playing them in friendlies, tourney, and wifi. I just see what Sonic can do and I hate it. Their matches are the ones that usually drag on. SAME WITH BC'S VILLAGER OOOO

Evo will most likely be my one OOS trip of the year.

Do I camp? ;~;

I try not to. It's boring. This is a fighting game. I wanna fight.
