Hey all, I'm back. I just can't quit this **** game.

I just got back into the game 2-3 days ago. I have a lot of practice ahead of me, so I'm aiming for my first tournament back on the scene to be the next HOBO. I believe I have gotten last place at every tournament I've entered, and I plan for that to change. If I can stick with the game for long enough this time.

I'll be practicing a good amount in the coming weeks, but I was wondering if, once I feel I'm back "in shape", one of the top players from Houston would be willing to have a few "sessions" with me where you would coach me, and hopefully improve my game even more. I believe that one of my shortcomings back in the day was that I have a very small pool of friends who play Smash, and none of them play competitively, so I don't have a lot of high-level players to force me/teach me to improve. I know that Smashfests help with this, but I think that some one-on-one practice time would be a great boon. I remember that RoyR and Stiltz used to play a lot together one-on-one, and I have no doubt that this helped them in a major way.

So basically, all I'm asking is if any of you high-level Houston players (no offense to lower, or newer, players; I just think that I can learn more from higher-level players) are willing to play some Smash together at one of our houses once September 4th starts getting closer. I'm more than willing to drive to your house, depending on how far away it is.

Also, to anyone who remembers me... hi, again.
P4 is having a fest sometime next week. Go to it.

This is a possibility, since P4 doesn't live too far away from me and I've been to his house once before. Like I said though, I just started up again and so I'm not sure my Fox (who I'm now trying out instead of Falco) is battle-ready.

Well he isn't ever gonna be ready if you don't practice with people, you said so yourself that you didn't have a big/good group to play with. So now is your chance to change that.

Also, I suggest Falco.

Roflpwny should change his name back. ;)
I'd have to buy a premium membership for that. :/

I know Falco is a higher tier, and I used to main him, but I'm having a lot of fun with Fox. There are 3 things I really enjoy about Fox:

1. I don't have to rely on the CG.

2. Fox has his old Melee shine, which covers his whole body and stops him in mid-air.

3. Fox's fair is VIABLE.

My mom is still ok with me going to Apex without Allan going.

Allan, you did good as a father. I think it's time for me to go out on my own, now!
