The hylian shield blocks when Link's crouching or in a neutral stance while sliding with no push back or lag. Besides on ice, it's too short a slide too be used in tourneys. Nothing slides far enough that cancels into stance/crouch; there's no DACcrouch slide or anything that would give the distance unless someone finds a new twist on an AT.

It's good in subspace and PS2/Summit.

thanks for posting that mage, totally forgot a few of those pointers last week. Guess that's what I get for not playing for a few months. . . .even if it was my own advice. xD

When you take a break it happens.

Then you realize you lost a bunch of bad habits and it works out in the end. :laugh:
I've resisted playing for quite a while, now. In order to help myself through my temporary 'withdrawal', I play Melee and Smash64.

I can't wait to get back into Brawl and practice playing smarter.

So guys, I got a tourney tomorrow. Wish me luck!

I was feeling pretty confident this whole week, but now I'm getting scared/nervous. I hope I can still do well. I reckon the two 5th place results I've gotten were flukes so this one will be the one to know if I'm actually a consistent good player.

There'll be alot of people money matching me. I'll definitely only play on Wii's that are hacked with infinite replays. So expect to see alot of new vids coming up!

There'll also be a low, mid and high tier tournies and I'm going to use all Link lol. :link:

Sadly I don't think there'll be any doubles. :cry:

That is the weirdest gif Red Ryu.

Remember to charge your arrows for 10 episodes before firing it.

Meh it wasn't a good tournament, single elimination made it meh, then they made it best of one game on a random neutral. Oh well, doesn't matter it wasn't a serious one anyways.

I got 8th of 64, Solo Link. I lost to a Ganondorf who knew how to play the game.

I found it funny how a lot of people were going MK, in the casual crowd. I feel stupid that one kid pretty much did nothing but spam Shuttle Loop and glide attack and I could get around it properly at times.

It was fun, I went to a panel that was teaching kids how to play and the game and I worked with it a bit teaching kids how to play doubles right, learning tricks with their characters and how to be less predictable.

So it felt like a good day in the long run.

Wow 8th out of 64? WTF that's heaps good.

Anyways, I'm also back from my tourney. (Full results later when they're posted.)

First place in low tiers
Second place in mid tier
7 place in High tier.

Probably over 25 entrants in each event.

I money matched 3 people, 2 of them on the PR and I won and I saved pretty much all my matches, so you'll see alot of vids uploaded soon.

Unfortunately many people didn't know how to play the game, so it felt less rewarding, that and the set-up of the tournament was kinda meh.

Nice rep your doing for Link, First in low tier is a very very good thing.

7th out of 25 is great rep. :)

Too good, guys. Come a year or so, I'll be able to attend live tournaments... I guess that's a year to prepare =D.

And a little note to you Link mains: Expect big updates on the Link Boards within the next few months.

Sounds luscious Zeus.

Does this imply a new moderator? (The answer, of course, is yes).

Of course it doesn't imply a new moderator. Since I know people will ask, I will give all of the information that we are willing right now:

The aforementioned changes will include thread reforms, new threads, and new approaches. That's as specific as I can be.

Yup yup.

I'd also like to say that basically anyone can get into the LBR and help the boards if you're active around here and, well, want to help the boards a bit.

The SWF Link boards got TWO mods. I stand corrected.

It does imply moderators just from the way your saying it. Sorry bud, but some statements are meant to be read a certain way. xD

Don't quit like I did, don't go on hiatus, abuse the threads in staffer shack because some of them are freaking epic, etc, etc.

This is just the setup for the changes to come. But yes, moderation was a part.

That's legit Scabe. Do work!

I need to emulate you and eke out an 8th or less in a tourney, still. :p

NEWS FLASH: Ano finished another paper and turned it in one minute late (at 12:00 AM instead of 11:59 PM). If the teacher is having conniptions about the time he turned it in, then Ano can't wait to see the conniptions he'll have when he sees what he BSed for the 20 minutes before he turned it in.

Honestly, I'm quite excited you guys are the new mods. I only ever considered myself a temporary moderator in the first place, only there until new, better moderators could be found. Perhaps I terminated my modship prematurely, but now we have those moderators that I was hoping for, so I feel it's all worked out as I'd hoped. :bee:

Probably already said this, but congrats and good luck!

I'm posting here for a very specific reason.

Scabe, get your arse back over to AiB. We're making a trailer for Project Link 2 and we need clips.
