Had a Smashfest tonight with T-block :) Definitely learned a bit with Ike and found some bad habits throughout!

Happy birthday San.

Fun facts: brinstar and me, a love story. When getting CPed here (mk, wario, g&w...) I always win.
When CPing, I always lose, and in the most dumb and undeserved way.

Yesterday at a smashfest, I got Dthrow-ed by a metaknight on the little balls close to the right side. The balls broke and I buffered an airdodge... The lava wasn't around and I died.
Later in brackets, I CPed a pokemon trainer main there. He DownTilt-ed the balls (with squirtle) and I Naired to my death.

I hate this stage. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktKN6NgQmg4&feature=relmfu#t=2m24s

I'm from Texas and I shot my own dinner last night.
While riding side seat in a tractor.
With a just-finished beer bottle sitting next to me.

Yeah, I just had the best weekend I've had in a while. I'm going outdoors with my cousin more often. And buying my own gun.

Everyone hates on this font color, lol. The original purpose was to make a friend of mine mad at it. Probably get to it later today.

As for WHOBO, dude, those pools were stacked. I ended up not getting out because I lost to PJ 2-1. I really thought I'd make it out, but then I saw all the pool sheets and was thinking "****ing hell, are you serious?"

Shoutouts to the Ike and dropped grabs making me look somewhat respectable against ESAM.

Lol yeah. I 2-stocked Dojo's ICs at 20% in pools. Still lost to him overall after he switched characters. He just didn't know the chain grab timing for Ike (or I guess the match-up itself) very well. Of the few times he grabbed me, he only REALLY capitalized by taking my first stock.

I don't think you're stereotyping hard enough

According to the IC's main down the road, Ike is unusually difficult to chaingrab due to his inbetweeny weight and very thin build
Sadly, He can chaingrab ike perfectly because he practices it solely to beat me :L

I watch them when you link them, because keeping up with stuff is hard

Ike isn't hard to cg :p The only problem with him is that you can't continually Hobble lock him if he sdi's it right.(on most characters u can hobble lock--->pivot grab to change stage positioning but ike goes too far to do anything but dash grab or dash shield grab). So you have to do a combination of fthrow-dthrow--->hobble or dthrow dthrow hobble. His weight is also a factor for why some find him annoying cuz u have to cg for longer periods which leads to more opportunities for mistakes.

Leaving for ReveLAtions tomorrow morning, feels good to start going OoS again. Need to make some more noise for Ike.

Thinking about entering Doubles as well, not sure.

That actually sounds like a good idea, but we already have salt shakers. We were given them by the Masters of Catastrophe. :troll:

Well, I'm still going to hope for an image of the loser with a salt shaker the size of his head or something silly like that at the end of the last video. :awesome:
