Big Steve money making an appearance!

Who's all coming to smashing grounds on the 7th? It's gonna be awesomeee

 

[Tomotoya]

Damn this thread moves fast.

Btw, Shiek is female. Word.

 

[john!]

Falco vs Falcon is a completely fair and balanced matchup which may even be in Falcon's favor because of very genuine reasons such as his name has an extra letter and because he is a captain, whereas Falco needs to wait for clearance from Fox before doing battle.

lol i knew you were trolling about character matchups being overrated!

I love that ****ing rabbit. :D

 

[exarch]

Actually I've been dealing with how surprisingly (and somewhat frustratingly) balanced melee is. Most people I can beat with Roy who I (probably) would have beaten with peach. Frank is relatively accurate with that statement. Check the Wintergame fest finals videos. Mango vs PP is surprisingly close as CF v Falco, and when Mango switches to falco to get a better matchup, the games don't change a huge amount.

Although I tend to be one of the more rare people who play all characters at almost exactly the same level of mediocrity.

Sam, were you CGing his bowser 0-90 with sheik? If you did that your record probably would have been better than 6-3.

And the real reason I came into this thread:
Someone play Monster Hunter Tri with me online.

 

[LightsOutAce]

I didn't chain grab at all, I didn't think it would work. Bowser looks so weird when he's in his fall animation.

I need to work on my Shiek-on-Sheik (hot) chaingrabbing as well as the chaingrab on Ganon.

 

[ORLY]

Sheik's chaingrabbing is all about reacting to DI quickly and adjusting accordingly. Get used to reading it off of the first few frames after the grab, giving you plenty of time to get that next one.

@Exarch: I wanna see that Roy (and all of the Milwaukee area (Yes, especially Quaz)) at this next Smashing Grounds on the 7th.

I know I keep bringing it up but I'm jonesing to play so bad.

 

[exarch]

You should try to be more like a general sheik player and assume: "It's a low tier; I can chaingrab it."

And don't worry too much about it, even the best sheiks have bad moments against bowser:

Also MH3 with meee

Edit @Chris, I'm in FL now mang. (See Erik's post.)

I do not have the game. I assume it is ok?

You do know exarch is no longer in wisconsin. Or do you simply not care that he is in florida now

 

[exarch]

Yeah Erik I'm pretty addicted currently. I've played a TON the past couple of days. Apparently ~20% of the japanese population owns some form of Monster Hunter--so the franchise is fun for many people.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I wished I had the time to play that often.
I'm keeping that roy legacy going every so often.

But, I do not have the game.

 

[ORLY]

wait what? when and why did you do that

tell rockcrock i say what's up

EDIT: assuming he still lives there. i can't keep track of you guys and your wacky migration habits

 

[FrootLoop]

Exarch: I noticed you were absent from our smashfest last thursday, I hope you are not sick.

 

[sanchaz]

yea seriously exarch. I don't want to hear this "it's flu season" nonsense. I'll get ya some medicine and I expect to see that roy today.

 

[Mundungu]

Yea, I meant tonight, not last night. I'll be there all night.

Exarch, Gibby and I play MH3. Let me know sometime when you want to play. I'm on vacation for the next couple weeks!

Sanchaz, you have a ps3? That would work out even better.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

"Memorial Union Rosewood Room, which is on the third floor West side."
^ For Mundungu and TheDude

That's the location of the smashfest that sam sent out in an email.

 

[exarch]

hahahahaha ps3.

Sorry guys, I reeeeally need to study for exams so I won't be able to make it this week either.

@Chris I moved once I no longer had a job. FL has all my immediate and almost all my direct extended family, so this state is really "home" for me. WI was kinda too far from them, and I'm definitely not complaining about the change in the weather either. But I miss y'all up there, doncha know?

@Matt, Awesome! I'm planning on being online quite a bit the next couple of days, but for me to be online I have to use the wired internet for this computer--so get at me on AIM or Skype whenever, I'll be around all day.

Frank, I like how your mind works.

 

[john!]

frank is starting to become a true madison-level troll. brings tears of joy to veterans like vino and me.

 

[LightsOutAce]

If Midwest can't be the best players, we must become the best trolls.

Except Frank, he's the next Mango. Pound 6 is where the reign starts!

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I doubt there will be a pound VI unless it goes under new management.

 

[TheDude_Abides]

Well, I may be bad but I had some fun.

 

[FrootLoop]

Except Frank

 

[eighteenspikes]

mfao yoru avirgin. 1000xke

Ah yes, the ancient proverb.
"If you can't beat them, troll them."

John can be the Fly Aminita to Frank's Scorpion Master. It'll be dope.

 

[sanchaz]

Frank has bad habits, and gets nervous in tournaments, he won't be the next mango for at least 3 months.

Mundungu: I wish I could of played you yesterday in mvc3. I'm just been super tired with social work, and yes, it does exists. good luck at your next tourney, gg's to the john dude to. and lmao with john9blue raging at john. hahahaha.

 

[LightsOutAce]

Dude: the only way to get better is to play more. I'll be around all summer and so will Mundungu if you want to play more.

 

[FrootLoop]

Lemme know if anyone wants to smash this weekend.

 

[sanchaz]

ace: pick a date for another tourney, and PLEASE the sooner the better, this way, people will know about the tourney in advance and can make arrangements to make it. Once you do, I want to have mvc3 people to come as well, I want to run that part 100%. Let me know whats up, and talk to spikes/lonejedi so tourneys don't conflict

 

[FrootLoop]

it kinda sounds like you're asking ace to get a venue so you can run a mvc3 tourney out of ace's venue lol

 

[LightsOutAce]

September 10.

I'll run Melee, YoshQ or somebody will run Brawl, Sanchez will run MvC3. Erik needs to go through Corrin to get funding as soon as he moves in August 25 or whatever. The venue will be the same as last time. We can start advertising in June if you want.

 

[ORLY]

holy good god that's a long way away

lol, why not now, seriously, or at least like after finals is done. That sounds like a great date, a way to start off the school year. let me know if thats official so I can figure out the rules in mvc3.

OMG, I want that room to be filled with sooooooo many people

 

[ORLY]

why not have it like a month before genesis

no reason to make it in september, that's way too far away

 

[Tomotoya]

Frank has bad habits? Like what?
