Post them up and link us!!

Kage teach me how to play Ganon in teams :D.
You just have to support your teamate at all times, you must have quick reactions too. If you see your ally in ****, help him right away even if you have the edgeguard on the other opponent. Keeping stocks is more important than killing your opponent because then there's more opportunities for double team combos. You gotta figure out the timing of when to hit and when not to... spacing Ganon in teams is extremely hard but if you get everything down.. then you can definitely become the best partner in the world! I'd like to think I'm definitely a Top 5 in the world in teams. =P Basically, you must create flanking positions with your partner.. Your partner needs to be really good at keeping stocks too. Because usually if you fight double spacies vs Ganon, you will most definitely have a rough time and will not be able to do much. Double spacies should gang up on Ganon anyways... or in fact any really good team should attack Ganon.. so you gotta be really good at reacting and punishing everything that they throw at you... The priority is hella annoying lol. I strongly recommend... A Peach first and then Sheik partner with Ganon.. probably the best combinations which creates a top tier team. Be good at timing, spacing and defending! =P

I kinda feel the opposite when it comes to team. I just wanna beast and when I'm down that's when my partner takes over. Only things defense wise that's nice is standing behind your team mate and readying up smashes for rolls and techs. My favorite team is always double Ganon. Ganon Peach is a close second.

You should definitely do really well depending on both your strategies. Though if you do get everything down correctly, I can imagine you can get Top 5 at Genesis. So ya.. oh man I can't wait to see you guys again!

national rankings, canadians only. If that's not what he meant that's what i'm interested in at least :p
Oh only Canadians???

umm... I would say

1. Vwins
2. Bam
3. Raynex
4. Kage
5. Diakonos
6. Kirbykaze
7. PKM
8. Hitsugaya
9. Dieslow
10. Blunted_Object10
11. Unknown522

Though I'm a little biased with 2v2 performance as well.. but I tried taking into account both 2v2 and 1v1. If we were all going to Genesis.. then that would be our Canada crew. And I'm that high considering my out of province performance.. I outperformed everyone of them quite often lol.

Really. I always thought BAM was the best Canadian Smasher.

How would you rank the Canadians in the world? Meaning top players in the world, and where would those 11 people fit in with the world-wide rankings (still according to you).

You cannot. You can ledgehop fair and Up-B back though.

I would go to Genesis if I wouldn't feel ashamed....ya know, since I have to make money for everybody else in my house too, it seems greedy.

Is FoD a good gannon stage? I realized today that when the platforms are at the lowest height, they are perfectly at the peak of gannon's SH, much like Hyrule in 64 with DK. You can SH an up air or nair or something, immediately land to cancel it, and quickly follow up

FoD is a mediocre stage imo, it can really work for or against Ganon, depending on who you play. The platforms are tricky because sometimes they rise and stay there for a good while then come all the way back, or just come underneath your feet and mess up your entire ground game, however it is pretty useful for wavelands and edge-guards. I know for a fact it's a pretty decent counter-pick against Marth and Peach.

How should I go about asking my mom if I can go to Genesis?

Would it be rude if I went and bought a plane ticket, then told her where I'm going, and then said kthnxbai, and left?

I wonder how it would work out...

Nah, fvck that Guini I called you madd early and you knew what the situation was. I don't even have a controller or Melee since that day. Everybody wants to chill late and can't plan anything in the early hours.

But whats this I hear you got spanked? Come on man, I thought you were on it.
