Lol ditto to that. Given MK wasnt allowed you have all of G&W's hardest matches there. Snake... Marth... Diddy. And then his fourth hardest, himself lol.

Wait wtf. Why were Razer, Gnes, Dojo, Flip, Haze all in the same half of the bracket? Or am I misunderstanding what you posted?

Man, I wonder how big this next Hobo is gonna be? I know some Floridians said they might come down here for Hobo 18. They just need a date.

I think everyone had a pretty hard bracket overall. If I had somehow managed to stay in winner's by beating Roy, I would have had to possibly play Broly AND mikeHaze if I had further advanced. Once again, the MARTH side of the bracket. SWEET! And I managed to get Poptop as my first match AGAIN. Deja vu. <_<

Watching mikeHaze yelling after getting grabbed by Hylian's ICs is the funniest thing I've ever seen. It's like he was fighting for the most important $5 ever in the history of mankind. :)

At least 3 of those are Diddys, they aren't too bad to fight with IC. Looks like an amazingly hard bracket though :/

Oh? i thought diddy was really hard for ICs, a banana toss is hard to avoid when you cant powersheild with both, and if nana trips diddy kong can do a dash attack to spike for the KO

or does ICs just have a easier time getting the grab with the aid of bananas. I dont know how long their glide toss is

IC vs. Diddy is 50:50 It's true that bananas can give them trouble, but if you play it smart, as soon as one gets hit by a banana the other can just grab it or hit Diddy if he runs at you after you slip.

As far as Ice Climbers' use of bananas, their Glide toss is bad, but they have that other way of sliding while throwing an item, which goes as far as Diddy's glide toss (forgot what it's called, it's whatever the one that involves the jump button is, not DACIT). Bananas can make it easier to grab Diddy, but at the same time they can get in the way if you chain grab Diddy. It's pretty much just a battle of who has the most experience with the matchup, and who messes up first. I personally like the matchup.

Thank you to everybody that attended Hobo 17 and Tys 3. We made history and made it EPIC. I put alot of hard work into getting funplex as the future venue for all Hobo's and Tys's. Next Hobo/Tys will feature bigger and better events. Hope all the international players had fun and come back soon. :]

I must disagree. Hearing MikeHaze scream after getting grabbed was the most annoying/juvenile/********/insert other negative adjective here thing I've ever seen/heard. For some reason it really bothered me. Now, I never got to talk to Mike or play him or anything, so I don't know how he really is, but by just going from that, annoying.

But it doesn't matter I'm just a brawl noob nobody's heard of so MikeHaze probably won't even notice this post.

Where was he from? I thought they said Louisiana but when I went to their boards they didn't know who he was.

Was he not from there?

We didn't have that many Sheik players...just one lololol

The matchup is in our favor, not by a large margin though. No diddy has been able to learn the matchup (besides me ^.^) thanks to the shortage of good icie players.

If diddy plays it right he wont get grabbed AT ALL...and when he does a naner will save him. I wont go into specifics, Hylian knows what i mean kekeke.

Syba, Lee is from Lousiana. Hes like their best player ^_^

Looking at all the brackets I think I had the hardest one, especially considering my characters haha.

And Diddy beats IC's. Pretty solidly. It's one of their hardest match-ups.

Really? I beat Andilex's Diddy in a $1 MM with IC, and then lost to his Diddy in friendlies pretty badly with my Sheik, Sonic, and got 1 stocked by his Diddy with my Wolf and Peach. I thought that it wasn't too bad for IC, I have way more trouble with Olimars with IC :/

Adilex is pretty good, but not Gness good.

@Hylian, I beat you in friendlies. I was a big green DK. I proceeded to beat melee1 right afterwards. I understand it doesn't really mean anything because it was in friendlies, but it was a really close fight so I'm going to assume you tried.

I'm pretty good but not Hylian good. It all works out in the end ;)
LOL krd that was hilarious to me for NO reason.

And as I told you yesterday, you and jS are getting better ridiculously fast. Please don't get too much better! :)



ANDDD mikeHAZE, ima come up to cali to chill with you some more. my favorite part of this tournament was you. you inspire me. <3

Same for you broly.

And about about the screaming thing. My input is, if it's for money, and it helps without harming the opponent, i think it should be fine. ESCPECIALLY if your opponenet is just gonna be as gay as possible once he/she gets a grab.
