So he didn't even play his main, but that's how you gauge how you feel fighting that character. That doesn't even make sense.

Q&A How to Wreck *****es with Ganon?- Linguini Q&A Thread
- Thread starter Linguini
- Start date
I never said I like the Sheik matchup because of playing KK, I was just responding to Eikelmann saying that Coastward hated the MU because he'd played KK before by saying that playing KK doesn't automatically mean you hate the Sheik MU.
Of course, if Eikelmann had specifically mentioned KK's Sheik I wouldn't have said anything
Protip: Never take anything I say seriously

it's not just KK's sheik that makes me dislike the MU, i generally just don't like fighting sheiks. i find it super boring.
I find it fun to play against Sheik.
Then again I also find Brawl fun, so feel free to form opinions about me based on that

don't you main mewtwo or something?
I do, but that doesn't mean I don't play other characters and didn't play other characters in the past.
Also I don't play Melee anymore, but if I did I would probably stick with Ganon because Melee Mewtwo makes me sad now that I have PM Mewtwo.
Speaking of Mewtwo today is Mewtwo's birthday, and also 1 year to the day that my name got changed from BlackGold to Shiny Mewtwo :D

huh i can already crouch on a platform without falling through without thinking. didn't realize that was the timing for it. do i try to crouch while holding a shoulder button or wha
this to the ****ing max. i was gonna say "you guys probably only like the matchup because you haven't played a good sheik" but since you're all on smashboards i'm guessing most of you have in fact played a decent sheik. so it kinda boggles my mind how you guys can actually like this mu.

Chaingrabbing is boring? Wow I must have a really unpopular opinion then. I actually like chaingrabbing as Ganon. Slamming your opponent down into the ground like the repeatedly is fun for me.
I have no real complaints about the MU. There are several good Sheik players in my state and I believe I will be able to beat them with Ganon at some point.

Also, here's some footage of my Ganon recently. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7unq1VwjII Check out 28:25 and 34:05 for the two Ganon matches I thought I played well/decent.

Crouch as quickly as possible [in a frame] and try to not fall through. You'll see it's not so easy if you've never tried it.

Hey Skytch I was watching your matches. You did do pretty well, but you picked a lot of options that lead into stronger follow-ups but opted for weaker ones like uair, and a few edge-guards you didn't commit to.

I'll definitely agree that I messed up a lot of edgeguards. I hesitated on what I wanted to do when I could have done anything. I'm definitely going to be working more on a solid edgeguard game (especially against spacies). Yes, some of my follow-ups were rather weak, once again due to hesitation or not thinking about all of my options. I want to work to make sure that I have as many options in my head as I can so that I can utilize them all and have my Ganon be impressive. I know I can do it, I just gotta keep practicing and keep playing.

Some things you need to actually auto-pilot for. Edge-guards should be automatic and thoughtless against space animals. There isn't much they can do aside from Up-Bing out of range. Most times they can be stuffed, and frequently you can cover 2-3 options at once with a well timed and spaced fair off stage. Never be afraid to just run off and fair if you can react to it.

36:10 was dirty
Unfortunately I live in the north east, home of the sheiks so that's why I'm so sour about the MU.

I mean, sure the chances of seeing me at a Melee tournament nowadays is about the same chances as seeing an ACTUAL Shiny Mewtwo in the Pokemon games, but I'm still a Ganon and I'm still in Canada.

Tell me how that goes.
Brampton's too far, I'm on the other side of Toronto lol
I'll show up to a A&C Melee tournament when they also have PM, the money it takes to get down there isn't worth it for only 1 game that I don't really play anymore lol

Did the fair off stage a few times yesterday, felt really good and works like a charm. plus edgeguarding with reverse upair is too good as well.
