I say don't get overboard with the ken combo

[AcidJazz]

I noticed a lot of posts on this board about the ken combo and how to do it etc etc...

The way I see it is to look for all advantages you can get to spike a person when they're off the ledge. I seriously doubt that Ken is thinking "oh its time to perform my combo so let it go". Marth is very flexible in his combos and Ken plays a very aggressive game. The way I see it, he's just trying to get people off the ledge and then spike them no matter how he does it. Don't be too technical in the game. Technique is important but it's a totally seperate beast from playing the game. You have your tools to play the game, and you have the game to play. Technique is tools. Using your wit is how you play the game.

You must have some pretty bad net problems to post the same thread three times. I've seen twice, but three is really quite bad. Congrats!

The Ken combo is just one of a set of tools marth can use. People seem to like it a whole lot since it's flashy. Whenever someone is off the stage, I always consider performing a spike.

Edit: excuse me, that's 4 times.

heh, yeah, four times must be some kind of record.

You said there are a lot of threads about the ken combo already in existence; as a result, please don't make a whole new thread about it and just post in the most recent existing thread. Thanks.
