First tip is choose a main.
Second tip is have fun and learn from your losses.

I full main these three equally but ok

going to a tournament, especially your first, with 3 mains is a very very bad idea and u should pick one character. this is supposed to be a learning experience, and you learn the best with one character. trust us on this. ask any top player, they did not rise to the top by switching mains

Ill be using captain for most of the time but if stuff goes bad I'll use my other mains.

 

[Narpas_sword]

See, that's what I mean.

if stuff goes bad, learn what went bad, don't switch from your main to a secondary.

From my three mains not secondarys

 

[ShadowKing]

Well I'm about to leave any last tips?

From my three mains not secondarys

You have one main or no mains.
Your main is who you chose in a double blind pick when you don't know your opponent.

Good luck =)

Thx what made me lose was me messing up my recovery with roy

To avoid having to resort to recovering in the first place, don't get hit, and

...That being said, that's an excellent showing for your first event. Keep at it.

Thx I used mewtwo for awhile untill there where harder matchups then went to my main man roy

Good run all the same, considering you were a round or two away from top 3.

Yeah.In a week or so I'm going to a melee tourney and going to use my main and for back up

You got top 5 at your first PM tourney? I'm guessing you've gone to tourney's for other games (Melee for an example) before because that is very rare, unless you haven't of course. I don't mean to sound jealous but the competition must have been pretty weak for you to do that good at your first tourney. Once again, I'm not trying to patronize you, it's just kind of unheard of and I'm wondering how you did it.

Still very good job! I never even made it past my first match at a sm4sh tourney in Utah.
