yeah. he made my first round pound 5 pool really hard. i had him, blunted object (canada) and vanz. at first i thought i was going to make it out, and then i realized who harriet the guy was and i was like...really? lol.

do you know who harriet lost to in winners bracket, renth? seems kind of early for him to have been in losers anway...
Hungrybox? Not sure, I'll ask him next time I talk to him. Florida players are monsters being in losers early in no shameful thing

Im not gonna say who knocked me into losers.only that they got really lucky and use a really really stupid character.

Shoutouts to renths 0-deaths and spidey's comebacks.









Wait till you see my hybrid ganon.

I could be interpreting this wrong, but it sounds like you got beaten by a Kirby main. I should go look at the tournament thread to see who you lost to.

But RockCrock uses an insanely awesome character, not a really really stupid character.

Wow that's pretty impressive that he beat him with Ganon. It's a hard matchup and Harriet knows it well. Do you know if it got recorded? It's not up yet if it did.

Everyone has off days and/or makes mistakes.

I'm looking forward to learning from the vids.

it wasn't an off day besides rustiness, he 3-0'd me convincingly.

i'm starting to think that the peach-ganon match-up is pretty bad (at top level) after being beaten by armada and baka.

I don't know about you, but from my limited experience in the matchup, I'd hate go be rusty going into it. The only matchup that'd be worse to be rusty in is the Sheik matchup.

It's probably 55-45 at worst [I probably have too much faith in Ganon]. Gotta exploit the hell out of her slow aerial speed, and avoid float-canceled shenanigans. I think light-shielding needs to be exploited more here. Sucks that grabs are so hard to get since they are straight cash.

Kage, I'm really impressed with your appearance at the end of your video, especially because of the fact that English is not your native language (I think).

I dunno, baka DI'd out of every one of my d-throws perfectly, to the point where i had to double-jump to have at least a slight chance of hitting him with my b-air. I am really looking forward to the video to see my mistakes.

What? You could always d-throw into nair, DD Fair even, uair.. they all work depending on where she DI.

somehow, i trust bizz on this one. i think it's more likely that on grabs, you didn't act as soon as you could. i know characters have different weights which allow you to move sooner or later after a throw, so i think it may have been that you were losing time there which allowed her go end up at good spots that are hard to reach.

If you're frame perfect on a dthrow nair on peach, is it possible to hit her with both hits of the nair? I seem to remember magus saying something about that and, well, it is magus. Although I suppose it is also dependent on DI?

Ike is brokener. He's like a cross between Ganon and Marth, but almost everything Ganon does he does better. If you ever play PM, just use Ike and play him like Ganon. You'll do better than you would if you played Ganon.

Raph, I was very relieved when you said P:M. For a second there, I thought you were trying to bring brawl into this. Yea, I haven't actually tried out P:M demo 2 yet, supposedly it's pretty tight tho. They really did a good job with it.
