Ike Boards General/Q&A Thread

[Nidtendofreak]

I keep thinking I'm a teenager still, when I'm 20. >_>

And I don't drink. I could if I was in Canada, but never have, and have no plans of ever getting drunk. Might try wine someday, but that would be about it.

 

[san.]

Alcohol is rampant throughout my family, so I'm obliged to abstain from drinking.

 

[Ussi]

Surprising to hear how most of us here don't drink o.o;

I go to the Pika boards and they are drunk half the time.

 

[san.]

By the way, I was wondering why everytime people shielded my aether it always shield poked.

If you aether and aim towards the back of the opponent's feet, 90%+ chance to shield poke a full shield non-moving. Moving your shield makes your more susceptible to shield pokes.

So when you aether offstage, hold forward momentarily before the initial hitbox comes out to get at their back.

 

[Teh Brettster]

What's even more crazy is I'm the one who cut myself off. I expected my friends to stop me before that. But once I reached double digits, I said TIME TO STOP. It happened fast.

Though the fact that I was able to stop myself because nobody else had done it yet... and after so much... it does make me feel better about myself.

Alcohol has its history with my family too, so I was really pretty nervous about last night. But I did well. That's why I was proud to stop myself.

 

[Ussi]

...this should stop people shielding my aether and getting me thrown off again ._.

 

[san.]

If they're a fair distance away from the ledge, you won't really be able to reach the opponent's back that easily unless it's down a little bit. You can still drift around their shield while Ike is spinning, also. You can also still aim at other visible gaps even though the back feet (and sometimes the forehead) are the easiest places to aim.

That's why it's pretty safe to even land onstage while they're shielding near the edge, and aim it so when you fall down, it hits behind them. It could either shield poke anyways and they get hit, or it pushes their shield to make them go offstage.

 

[Teh Brettster]

Okay, San, I am on Steam. Again. And I still can't find out why I'm supposed to be so happy.

 

[san.]

I gifted you VVVVV

 

[Teh Brettster]

=OOOO

That game is awesome. Thank you so much, dude. Now... how do I get to it? Lol

 

[san.]

Games>Manage gifts and guess passes I think.

NEW BEST FRIEND

Sorry Foodies and Global-Wolf. I still love you both.

 

[Ussi]

being Brett's best friend is serious business

 

[Teh Brettster]

Happy Birthday Brett, don't waste your 21st drinking all day, it would be too cliche and you are anything but cliche!

I'm sorry to you. I appreciate the compliment, though. I'd invite you to be a best friend too, but I hardly think you'd accept, since I may have let you down.

In other news, I've managed to get like everyone important from Dallas to say they'll come over for a Smashfest as a late birthday get-together for me today. Crazy, because Dallas basically all quit at the same time-- they're sort of getting back into it I think. I'm excited.

edit
ROFL, the world DOES revolve around me.

[Ussi]

I always wanted to do that with a gift

 

[Heartstring]

Best friend. You and Global-Wolf both came out of hiding for me. BEST. FRIENDS.

Well, the 21 is over. And the Rangers gave up their massive winning streak on my birthday. I was pissed. I still am pissed. Speaking of pissed. There is a tally on my arm of how many drinks I was given last night. First time I've ever been under the influence... and screw everyone who bought me a drink. For real.
The tally is 10.
TEN.
This morning is a nice journey back to the land of the people who have oxygen in their brains.
Don't ever get drunk, guys. Not like that.

ten?
can i ask what strength they were? and are you small in stature?
to get drunk after ten pints seems a bit low to me, then again i do work in a pub so yeah :L

 

[Nysyarc]

One of my brother's friends usually brings 20 beers to parties for himself, some of the conversations between him and my brother about exactly how many he should bring are actually sometimes pretty funny ("Dude maybe I should bring 24 this time, I don't think 20 will do it" "Are you kidding? You were gone by 18 last time" and etc...). He always drinks them all, which is like, upwards of 7 litres.

thats pretty similar to me, i get through about half a litre of absinth when i want to
although ive been told i have to stop, apparently its disolving my throat

 

[Ussi]

I will never understand drinking that much liquid ever... i barely drink 3 glasses of manga juice in one sitting

First off. Beer is sickening and I won't ever have it.
About 5 of those 10 were weak-medium strength shots, 2 were rum, and the other 3 were strong shots. I also had sips of other things.
It was my first time drinking. I am 5'8" and scarcely over 120 pounds.

 

[Heartstring]

i never mentioned beer, i should have probably replaced 'pints' with 'servings' or 'portions' tbh

and cool, shots are the best way to go IMO. one day i will find something that can get me drunk without killing me from alcohol poisoning. screw you my liver, why are you so resilient

 

[Teh Brettster]

Alright, I'm done talking about alcohol.

You know what I can talk about now? THE REST OF MY CAKE.
And peanut butter sammiches.

 

[Mozz]

Hey, at least you cut yourself off Brett, that's a good thing. As long as you can do that, you're still eligible to be on my best friends list, (even if you can't I have friends that have done worse).

I agree Beer is just horrible, though some liquor is tolerable and some is downright tasty, (mostly fruity girly drinks, hey don't mock them till you taste them!). I didn't know that I'm less than 2 weeks younger than MISTER doom by the way. I'm turning 23 August 8th (though I don't look it) and I actually have to think about my age now too. Man are we old people on the Ike board.

EDIT: Except for Nysarc, he has special mod status that makes him "fashionably aged"

 

[Mr. Doom]

I went through about one-two gallons of water a day for the past week. 'Didn't get drunk at all.

 

[M@v]

I wouldn't mind mming the ikes coming to APEX; want to see how I do against several different ike players.


Except Berserker. I play you enough already -.-

challenge accepted
wait...falco? **** you man, i hate that birdy XD

 

[theeboredone]

Falco ain't that bad, you just suck.

Get better.

 

[Ussi]

I'm just doing friendlies most likely. I don't think i'm entering APEX, unless i get money all of a sudden, but I'll be there to cheer on Ike mains. Wish they had mid-tier doubles, would like to double Ike.

 

[Mozz]

I got to finally do double Ikes in team friendlies with Colaya, it's fun, (though I played horrible and we got crushed by the double meta/meta wolf team that won the tournament).

 

[Heartstring]

spacies are personal hate matchups more than anything
in return, i love fighting sword characters, marf, Tlink, link, meta (to a lesser extent) although i dislike ike dittos

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

Whatever you do mav, DON'T PLAY RED. Because if I see him use Uthrow one more time...

Also, mav be trying to use Ike experience to beat other Ikes, when he has NO IDEA I've actually been playing Sheik dressed as Ike this entire time.

 

[Ussi]

I can play angerlies (serious friendlies)

 

[Heartstring]

I can play angerlies (serious friendlies)

i thought they were called seriouslies
i like angerlies though, i think im gonig to use that term

 

[Ussi]

Doh i need to get a new controller... Bleh .-.;;

Maybe i can borrow one

 

[global-wolf]

I like the term meanies.

 

[Ussi]

I'm mean to everyone

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

I'm mean to everyone

Such a jerk, jeez.

 

[Teh Brettster]

I sometimes call them douchebaggerlies.

Actually not. I just made up the term and thought it sounded funny.

You need to wax, not shave
