dont tell me sending a bunch of conscripts to your opponents base and then targeting it with a nuclear missile so that they turn into those weird blob thingies so that the base would get destroyed wasnt the best thing ever XD

Basically in conclusion i'm going to stop using Yoshi as my counterpick, and go Falco... my ROB hit a brick wall, and Yoshi is just not good :(

I am going to remove your brick wall and improve your ROB.

Step #1: Emphasis on u-airs by spot dodging to u-tilt rather than spot dodge to d-smash when someone gets really close

Step #2: Emphasis on grabs by changing all glide tosses to glide toss to grab rather than glide toss to smash

Step #3: Emphasis on spacing by going forward air to down-air/back-air combos rather than double fairs out of a short hop

Your ROB will improve in one day!

Actually, I take it back.

Olimar is the best D3 counter there is. Just make sure you keep in mind where your purple's are so if you are off the edge you can knock them off the ledge with your over-b and up+b back.

I think you can sort your pikmin with down+b, so you could move a purple to the front... not sure though. I don't play Olimar much.

Olimar's good against D3? I haven't played the matchup much, but honestly Olimar is just too easy to edgeguard when your character is good off the edge [and/or has multiple jumps]...all DDD has to do is spam bair. it gets pretty rough for Oli players [which I was before having my eyes opened to ROB]...he's a monster on the stage though, but I'll have to look into this matchup some more before I can agree/disagree with that...

also, why the Bjork hate? sooo creative and talented :) oh well, different opinions, that's cool.

Olimar can get past the bair toooooo easy. Air dodge, down+b invincibility...... or simply fast falling past him after the air dodge. All of D3's attacks send Oli up and out, which is perfect for him.


I recorded some matches of me vs. my little brother... his MK and D3 vs. my ROB. He's not super amazing or anything, but he's not bad. Still, I beat him consistently.... I thought I'd upload them and you guys could see what is basically the craziest ways to punish things. Kind of like how you watched Darkrain play a random Fox and say "holy ****, Falcon can do that?" and it opened your mind up to his possibilities...

They'll be up soon.

Every time I see you ragging on T0MMY, I wonder if he still plays Brawl... and then I imagine this whole scenario in which T0MMY quits Brawl and starts playing Tennis or something instead, comes back to smashboards when he's board in a computer lab six months down the road and searches his name... then screams in agony as he sees nothing but Ch0zen posts taking shots at him for no reason when he hasn't posted in half a year.

As an Olimar main, Olimar is definitely Dedede's best counterpick. And if you want me to explain the glory of the Down+B, well, yeah, it sorts Pikmin by color with each successive whistling, going in order from red, yellow, blue, purple and white.

As you can tell from my sig, I do love my fatties and they are ever so useful against Dedede's edgehogging and edgeguarding.

And no, I main ROB too.

New vids... me vs. my lil bro, Scarecrow. His MK and D3. He's not super amazing or anything, but these videos show you how to gimp MK's recovery (watch the lylat one ^_^) and D3's recovery, as well as a new combo I figured out... footstool to dair to u-smash?! 222good.

so the weakest point in ddd's upB occurs at the very top of the animation?

nice footstool-dair-upsmash combo

He loses his super armor when he gets to the top... so you can up+b chase him and nair, or wait beneath him and u-smash. He can't change his DI, so he's always gonna get hit. Plus, he doesn't get his jumps back, so you can chase him again! :D
