I don't know or care, but I do hope that he is actually winning tournaments.
Do you play tournaments xYz? If you are better than "the best Ike player ever" than I hope you are.

Dude, I'm getting tired of your johns. Just accept the loss and beat me next time if you are so compelled. Also, you didn't suicide ever match. If you had an off game, that's fine. Everyone does, but I wasn't commenting on your skill at all. All I said was that I won all of our Ike ditto matches. No reason for excuses, they just annoy people.

I'm not impressed by the trash talking and excuse making.
You all play a sucky character anyways. Most people these days tend to have an ike counterpick. (Seeing how he is very easy to counter).

Baky, it's not like the entirety of the Ike board is completely ignorant of this fact.
Yes, there's one group on smashboards.com that has ostracized themselves in an attempt to cling to their futile hopes that Ike will rise to the top of the tiers. <_<
Unfortunately for you, Ike doesn't "suck." He's not as good as other characters, but a good player isn't going to just get tossed around-regardless of who they play as.

A "good" player can easily get tossed around by someone who is adept at camping. Lucario's aura-sphere short hop spamming will keep an ike in place. When ike apporaches using his slow *** moves, (aside from aaa), a player can easily counter by using a tactic that has dominated smash brothers games forever. Shield Grabbing. Or you can get a character who cannot camp, Marth, and use his wonderful edguarding abilities to 3 stock an Ike by keeping far far away from the stage. Those great recoveries Ike has really contributes to his kill-death ratio.
To sum this up. Unless if your friggin Azen or someone with comparable skill level. Hang it up.
Ike is fun to use, (especially in free-for-all) and he dominates online, but he isnt competition material.

So you mean the setup for
His tilts
His grabs
His smashes?
And his quickest most often used move? Yeah I can see how that would easy if you fight an ike who never jabs, ever.
Ike isnt top tier, he never will be, but using htat logic people should give up anyone who isnt marth G&W DDD snake or meta

How about you read what I typed? I mentioned that his AAA was an exception. His tilts are slow, up-tilt can catch a person off guard occasionally and the range of forward tilt is exceptional but the move is quite slow. Down-tilt deserves no mention. Every smash he has is quite slow. Yes he can kill someone who is off guard at a very low percentage. Did you notice I said off guard? Ike has several moves that he will be punished for using, (like CF).
And im not going by a tier list. Ike has too many flaws vs the other commonly used characters. I play Lucario, Shiek, Wolf, and R.O.B. I do not expect to lose to an Ike anytime soon when I play any of them. (Although, Shiek is excessively light so I would expect an Ike to get an easy kill).

Baky, you don't have to approach with moves. Powershielding, rolling, jumping, and general mindgaming on the approach and NOT attacking to close space throw many people off. I know what you're talking about; pit playing arrow games under the ledge and crap like that, or a falco shl kick to your face, etc. Ike is at a disadvantage, but online is really where it shows-it's much tougher to power shield there.
Spacing for the win. Shieldgrabbing is much less of a risk, provided you space correctly and play smart. I'm not saying he's fantastic, but he's definitely not a guaranteed lost cause.

You didn't actually read what I said, did you? A fast ike is hugging his jabs dude, to say "oh his moves are slow except for the one that can set the rest of the slow moves up" is silly.
has never played brawl before hahahaha
You're kidding, right?

Since when has AAA won a match? Since when have AAA moves been un-shield-grab-able? Yes spacing is key, but it'll only work so much. Ike's neutral air is great as well. Lets not get away from the fact that most of his moves are easily punishable. (Like CF)
I agree with you Koda. I remember fighting Ike initially and he was the best thing everrr. Although, I had a problem with spot dodge timing then. As I fought Ike a little more though it wasnt that hard to deal with, even with mindgames. You can see his stuff coming from a mile away but I am familiar with skilled players using spacing to their advantage. Creating the illusion that the space is appropriate for an opponent's less range move. Then WAMMM.
For a while Ike was [one] of my best characters, but people learned how to deal with it way to easily.

Even the best Ike's here say you usually need to be the better player to win with Ike. That's ****ing terrible.
Comboking, you need to have a nice long chat with a good player and get yourself educated. You make some of the worst statements I have ever seen, Jesus. You dont even have Wi fi, yet you claim it is no different than offline. Wow, that's really friggin smart.

if you are even close to my skill, you are very average. If you are near Silven, you're pretty good. If you are like Inui, you are really good.
Dont ever *******ize good. Inui isn't even impressed with Silven, he'd probably say you suck.

He IS an Ike player!
by he i meant the person who hadn't seen a good ike player... rok said
"You're pathetic. You didn't believe in Ike until you seen someone play with him. It's people like you or shouldn't even be privledged enough to touch a controller."

Errr me and Inui never even fought...all he did was watch my matches. He's probably hearing from the people I fought in his crew like Emblem Lord and DmBrandon. I don't know how Inui can judge my Ike when he hasn't played. All I'll say is this...don't judge a player from videos...or even if you spectate their matches LIVE. Because it's a whole different ballgame when you actually play them. You get to see their thought process and their mindgames and you also get to see how they adapt to your playstyle. When you spectate, you're not getting any of that.
