that was hardly a proof that puff beats falco.

IMO chops isn't a great player, he is just amazing with his lasers and he is decently technical. his mental game isn't on the same level as like mango or m2k or even zhu. hbox simply outsmarted him a lot and lasers don't work too well vs puff.
Yea.. I wouldnt fault lambchops for gettin rested from a dair... if you don't shine there's enough lag to get rested as you pass by. (Or if you miss your L cancel). This really had nothing to do with the mental game aspect of it all. I do think puff is great against falco though. Sveet--were you just trying to cause a ruckus?!

Lambchops and zhu are pretty much on the same level lol..
Chops probably has one of the most unique falcos to date..
Everytime i watch a new vid of him he does something completely different and weird but so effective.
lol like cyko said forward on pcp is pretty much exactly what chops is

i just don't think chops is that good. i think he relies on lasers to do 85% of the work. falco combos pretty easily so he just camps until they mess up and he punishes. i just think hbox has proven himself to be a top 5 player in the US and chops is maybe top 30, the difference being that hbox is many levels smarter than chops.

i'm not saying anything bad about chops, because i think he plays falco the right way, i just know that he doesn't have the smarts or the trickz to play his falco like mango or even shiz does. if it wasn't for how fast he is with his lasers, nobody would even know his name.

chops isnt as good with falco as mango or shiz

they are the top 2 falcos, and chops is basically tied for 3rd with zhu, maybe 4th just cause zhu beat m2k though

i guess youre right about the laser thing though, because if he wasnt as good with lasers as he is, he wouldnt be beating the **** out of tons of great players semi regularly, and then nobody would know his name

but he is, so he does, so we do

Chops beat mango in dittos so he definitely has "tricks"...
85% spammage is a bit much lol he surely has more to his falco then that..
Just saying chops has the potential to be one of the best

uhh chops is smart idk why people are saying he isn't

he just isnt as smart as mango b/c no one is

if you have no smarts you will lose to almost everyone you play that is good

That crew battle was just amazing. I wish we had it recorded, but I can always think back on the highlights: killing myself killing Mendoza, but getting the JV to make up for it, 6 shield pressure jabs into forward smash with Falco on Big D's DK, Roy's 0-death on DK right after the countdown, and of course, the super ridiculous all B button combo with Roy against Vro. I couldn't think of a better way to cap off my time living and playing in Chicago.

BRING SETUPS

BRING SETUPS

if i hosted a monthly or bi monthly at CoD, who would be interested?

they would happen on saturdays. i'm pretty sure they closed down that one room to finish remodeling it during the summer, so half of it won't be boarded up this time.

and does anyone know how many characters/lines it takes to have your signature show?
