Will do. Bought Mii outfits especially for him/her EmbarrassChibo has a good Mii gunner. Watch him
You'd be surprised. Gay, Fox, and Falcon have to respect his grab game now because they can't just throw out an attack and weave out of his grab range like they could pre-patch. The Dthrow buff puts the opponent in a not-so-favorable position and fast-fallers/heavyweights will have a very hard time escaping the follow-ups. Sure, the buffs don't drastically change up his MUs, but at least his game has improved by 5 points or so.has incredibly good shield pressure. 2 strong hits breaks a shield easily. His problem isn't shields but rather getting walled off and having his slow frame data exploited.
I do think's grab buff really helps. It's not as good as the jab cancel but Link at least has a decent answer to shield happy opponents with grab>Dthrow>followup.
5/10 would not try and force that on my crotch....I'll be going now...
You need a good canvas to make exceptional art. That canvas isn't bad.How openly base of you. Are you admiring the art, or the canvas?
I feel like when I stop playing and come back to it a little while, I do incredible. Like my potential peaks.So is anyone besides me and maybe Sasook headed to CEO?
As a side note, there's a little less than a week until CEO and I'm already starting to get nervous. Not only am I not 100% sure I'll be attending, but I've had absolutely no practice since last tournament. I'm definitely gunna have to set my expectations low with this one.![]()
Basically Smash and fighting games in a nutshell.I feel like when I stop playing and come back to it a little while, I do incredible. Like my potential peaks.
I lose interest after playing for a while so I start getting lazy.
I find this true to an extent. It feels like giving yourself some time to reflect on your play style really helps. And if you watch others play, you can point out what they did right and wrong, and apply this to your own play style, sometimes without even knowing it. The same thing can apply to other hobbies. But at the same time, a lot of good things about your own play style may be forgotten, because no one else plays quite like you. You might even remember these things by heart and still forget to use them in your matches. Sorry to ramble, but those are my thoughts.I feel like when I stop playing and come back to it a little while, I do incredible. Like my potential peaks.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that way.I feel like when I stop playing and come back to it a little while, I do incredible. Like my potential peaks.

Darn it, phone. ~.~I, uh, think you quoted the wrong person there ^
At least your phone isn't like my phone where I can't even tell if I even postedDarn it, phone. ~.~
I've gone for months without playing before and I did just fine so long as I got some time to watch YouTube from time to time. Everything just comes naturally to me. Does that make me smart lol? My only trouble is with incorporating and dealing with any new meta stuff that appears while I'm gone.We had a Dutch smasher who always used to say taking a break was good only if the player was smart. Ninjalink was always against them though, I remember he told us numerous examples of players who were great, then took a break and never quite recovered.
Yeah but who are you playing against?I've gone for months without playing before and I did just fine so long as I got some time to watch YouTube from time to time.

Well I'm going to a regional, so...Yeah but who are you playing against?
Yeah, it's been and extremely long time since I've played PM, so picking the game up again will admittedly be a bit of a struggle. Once I get the hang of it again though, I'd imagine the fundamentals I've learned in Sm4sh will transfer quite nicely.Well for me personally, small breaks (maybe like a week or so) have done surprisingly well for me, primarily because I run on momentum, and playing too much tends to either fatigue me, bore me, or I make stupid technical mistakes. I was actually out of town for 10 days last week before playing Sm4sh again, and picking it up again actually felt pretty great, as the time off gave me time to think about my holes in my playstyle, and draw my mind off of matches I might have either felt salty about or feel I could've done better in, primarily on Anther's Ladder or the Character Skype groups. That being said, Melee is a bit different as it requires alot more technical skill and knowing conversions, so I need to lab with that one about once or twice a week otherwise I become a laughing stock at friendlies. lol
Really I depends on the person. Breaks are amazing for me in all things. I start to get somewhat complacent at times, especially video games and have to refresh to get rid of some of the bad habits I'm developingI've gone for months without playing before and I did just fine so long as I got some time to watch YouTube from time to time.

Never really likedWhile @link7 is in his bunk I gotta say Mii Gunner is the ****.
I need to try gunner myself. It'd be nice to have a samus that didn't suckNever really liked. Much prefer
. Though i find it unfair the Swordfighter doesn't get a wall jump like the other two. Maybe if he had a tether, I would forgive Sakurai.
I never understand why people say that, say Samus or Zelda, suck in this game but I find that to be not bad.I need to try gunner myself. It'd be nice to have a samus that didn't suck
But they're lvl 9's.You play against CPUs.
But have you ever played a good player for either of the characters? Good samuses and good zeldas are something to be feared. Not by top tiers, necessarily, but a good samus and zelda can really put in work.You play against CPUs.
What makes people good worth them is that they are fundamentally good at smash and their read game is good. However they are working hard to use them, much harder than they would with other characters. Zelda and samus are not good in this game. Customs save samus in a way because then she actually has an interesting zoning game.Nairo's Zelda was pretty entertaining to watch, back in the early days of Sm4sh, shame he stopped using her for tournaments as of late.

If I'm correct, Sakurai mentioned in a pic of the day that you can't steal the ledge if the other person still has invincibility frames and that seems the caseYou know you're a special kind of terrible in this game when you manage to get edge hogged.
I was touching the dpad btw. Also, I showed this to fsk in the xat and I'm sure he answered, but since he took a while I wasn't there anymore (had to leave for work).
You won't Ledge trump, but you can still grab the Ledge. Anyways, I already got a very interesting and quite logical answer (I believe this is what happened):If I'm correct, Sakurai mentioned in a pic of the day that you can't steal the ledge if the other person still has invincibility frames and that seems the case
@Amazing! I know exactly why this happened but I've never seen it before. So whenever you take damage you're unable to grab the ledge for like 30 frames or so. He upBed you, you took damage but no knock back, then you upBed and fell before your ledge grabbing window was available. If you had waited a tiny bit longer to Upb you would've grabbed the edge. Very cool! Your friend being on the ledge had no effect here.
You haven't? It's been known for some time already that there's a brief period after you take dmg during which you can't grab the Ledge. That's why if I Jab you as you coming to grab the Ledge you'll drop rather than holding it.I've never heard of that before.
Interesting.

I didn't know it was based off of taking damage and for a certain frame count. I assumed it was only if you were in hitstun as you passed it.You haven't?

Probably would have been the assumption but it seems to be hard coded as dmg only, hitstun seems to be irrelevant.I didn't know it was based off of taking damage and for a certain frame count. I assumed it was only if you were in hitstun as you passed it.

This is not completly correct, as Fox's Laser does not count for it.Probably would have been the assumption but it seems to be hard coded as dmg only, hitstun seems to be irrelevant.
That's mighty interesting and is something you have to watch out for with Ryu it seems
