Im thinking about entering the tournament scene. Any advice, or tips?

[Mythos13]

ive been scoping the tourney scene for a while, and ive heard that smash tourneys have fun and friendly competition. I think im tournament ready, but i just want some advice for someone new to the tournament scene.

- Get as much friendlies as you can... fighting different people can help you get better.
- Don't worry about losing, it's just game.
- Just have fun.

Thats basically it. lol.

Expect to lose and get your sorry *** handed back to you on a silver platter.

Smashers love sexual favors.

 

[BigRick]

Smashers love sexual favors.

I think I can agree on this.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA


Friendlies is the way to go. If you feel like placing high, main snake or something.

u should b ready to face some really tough opponents. i just went to my first tournament a few months ago and pretty much got owned. i won like 3 matches and barely made it into the tournament. tips: train, and learn some advanced tactics

 

[Joe_Sumo]

expect to lose a lot. i know i should have lol...

also play melee not brawl =p... and let the flaming begin

Edit: also have all of your advanced tech down because everyone else can do it too, not just the pros. if you dont have a real life training partner get 1

Play a bunch of friendlies with the other players there before the tournament actually starts. This way, you can get more matches in while you're there and get to know the crowd. Also, don't be worried if you get your *** kicked, the tournament scene produces some of the most skilled players, you'll learn a lot from them.

go to local tournaments first. you will learn tricks, combos, etc., and most importantly you will get experience. As you start to win these go to national tournaments. make as many friends as you can to.

Rule 1: Don't play barlw

Rule 2: Play melee

Rule 3: Don't play barlw

I am planning to join a tournament myself, and though I expect to not do too great, could anyone give a round-a-bout price guide, that way I know how much to set back? In US Dollars, please.

good advice, but bad at the same time.

 

[Vicious Delicious]

Try your best to win, but expect to lose your first couple times. It isn't a bad thing to lose, just a learning experience.

Have fun. Talk to people, make friends, play the game (friendlies!!), eat snacks. Don't get yourself under bad pressure. This is really important.

Train beforehand, especially if your character of choice is easily pwnable. Consider using a better-suited character such as Snake or Metaknight.

That's all I can think of right now

thanks. i noticed a lot of people suggest certian characters if they wanna place high. that is kinda unfortunate cuz id rather see people encouraging doing best w/ the character u choose, (not that anyone directly suggested that) but its almost discouraging to some people when they see that snakes and metaknights are like the only people w/ chances and they "have" to drop their mains to do well... its ok tho, cuz im sticking w/ my mains and yeah, i am expecting to get my *** handed to me in competition (i main link and ike, but id say im good w/ them). anyway, thanks again for the insight

 

[BrawlBro]

wow dont switch to snake just because hes apparently top tier.

remember now tires don exits.

main who you want have fun and kick some A$$!

 

[Rampage]

remember now tires don exits.

GET OUT NAO!
