Social Link checked the thread. Wow! This is a nice thread!

I'm handing smash 64 the "your old "card as an excuse at being bad at it. OR, it be because Link is such **** in that game, I am maining Ness in 64. Also for smash 4 Ness is a top tier character, but requires precision and patients just like Link.

Ness does indeed require a lot of patients.

God damn it.

 

[Elessar]

I have to say, I like cat's avatar better than the last one she had. It suits her better.

 

[KenMeister]

Of course, he sends countless patients offstage everyday.

No character is bad in 64 if you'r Isai. Almost took Apex 2012 with Link. Lost to captain falcon.

Smash 64 isn't really clunky or slow; learn to L-cancel all your moves and then just get your opponent above like 40%. The hitstun in smash 64 is ridiculous, meaning you can get insane combos you can't even dream of in ANY of the other smash games. It really allows for some amazing creativity if you just watch your opponent's trajectory and learn to follow up correctly. Just look up "Isai Alvarado" on youtube and watch his videos.

Also, as many bombs as you can pull before the first explodes is how many bombs you can have in play, so there's that.

Mega Man is bad at the 3vs1 allstar format. He can't launch sideways well and many stages protect against star KOs with terrain, most of his attacks can be reflected or stop after hitting 1 of the 3 opponents, and Mega Man is combo meat.

 

[Dumbfire]

lol LNIM tried to get himself on the notable players list:

Of course he was promptly ignored because he couldn't even be bothered to read the OP (and surprisingly it did not say "wifi ladder 'achievements' are sufficient").

 

[Rizen]

Wifi sucks. Too bad I'm just a wifail scrub this smash /life gets in the way

So @ Camalange and I only got to play 2 games of Link vs. Sonic yesterday (we were at a friend's graduation party). We each won a game, but we'll definitely get some more matches in. Unfortunately we did not save those two games...

Happy 4th of July USA Links

I can't remember at which point we may or may not have been under the influence.

This can only lead to far greater game sense and tech skill.

 

[Shamurai Formerly]

I'm trying to get a few matches in with some skilled Link players for a video that involves Ganondorf getting shut down in various ways. Anybody willing to go some rounds?

There's almost always some people in http://xat.com/LinkSmashers, the link boards chat group, ready for matchmaking.

 

[A_Phoenix_Down]

Wait, so you're making a "Why Ganon sucks" video or something?

Nah, there's just something about Ganondorf...

Sorry about the massive delay, youtube ****ed up the processing and I had to travel. I have published the bombsliding guide now and it can be seen here:

I beat classic on 9 w/o losing a life. The only difficult challenge left is beat crazy orders after 20 turns with Mario. The some busy work with smash tour, target blast etc.

 

[Dumbfire]

Music makes the vid. Great job.

 

[epicnights]

Very well done, seeing each bombslide up close and in slow motion helps to know what visual cues to look out for.

 

[smokebomb12]

I thought you guys said bomb sliding was removed.

Any way happy America day

although I do have to work today.

Really my bad.

Edit: fixed it. I though it would be funny but I forgot about the PG rating here.

They might of found a new AT and not even know it too bad they're sense were so high that they forgot when they were "under the influence"

 

[Linkmario00]

Great music choice and explaination man. Sadly I'll never be able to do the Reverse Bombslide due to me having only a Gamepad without a stick like GC's one

 

[smokebomb12]

@ FSK

Damn it. I am trying to learn how to shield drop so I can punish under platforms easier. Now I have to worry about bomb sliding.

 

[Drunken_Master]

Beer cancelling is the single most effective and universally applicable AT in smash. Anything missed because of it would be negligible by comparison.

When doing reverse bombslide, do you/can you hold grab while pressing the attack button, or do you have to let go of grab before hitting backwards + attack? I can consistently do every bombslide except for the true reversed one.

 

[Rizen]

If that were true we'd probably have staged a fake terrorist attack and used it as pretext to invade Canada by now.

There is no need to let go of the grab button. But there is no necessity to keep it pressed either.

What was the name of the iOS app for xat?

 

[Dumbfire]

What was the name of the iOS app for xat?

Multiple methods, see here for one:
http://community.xat.com/showthread.php?22249-Xat-app-for-iPhones-and-Androids
"There is an app (basically an alternative browser) for both iOS and Android that lets you run flash applications like xat. It's called Puffin Web Browser, here's the website of the developer: http://www.puffinbrowser.com"
Just google search "Xat iphone" if that doesn't work you'll get some alternative options. Avoid the Xat app btw, it's not functional at all -- it doesn't work.

Thank you for your wisdom drunken master too bad my skill level is not 21 so i can't learn this AT, it could of made me the best smasher around one day i will learn this technique i will asure you of that and i will not disappoint

@ FSK

Damn it. I am trying to learn how to shield drop so I can punish under platforms easier. Now I have to worry about bomb sliding.

Its weird because when i start worrying about things my opponent can do i start to lose mainly when the opponent has a fully charged shot with like samus of something or like a Gannon who has rage and i can die from down tilt from flame choke i start to do worse out of just playing it safe so im not gonna really worry about opponents bombsliding against me it will give me problems just thinking abo it it

Really good stuff as always dude. I've added this to the top of the bombsliding section in the AT thread replacing the old vid (which would have been kept but it also showcased that thing where you slide off the edge which has been patched out).

Just what I need. Text is a bit hard for me to understand. But seeing it is stupid effective for me. Time to do work

 

[Linkmario00]

So, Bill Trinen is coming to EVO. Honestly I'm pretty hype to see how well he does. Do anyone know who he mains?
