I won't be going to this, I thought this would've been during Easter holidays, but my holidays start on the 25th =(

Edit: I'll have to see how I'm doing for assignments closer towards that date, count me in for now.

What? I travelled heaps and I always housed heaps. Meh. Basically I wouldn't normally go to this Melbourne major because I went to the last one. However I would come through sponsorship :D I dunno get me or Kas or someone like sam if he's not already coming.

I'll take you up on the offer more readily if less people are inclined to eat out of your wallet, too, since 1 person alone is pretty steep in my books, lol.

I love how the commentary says that it's a good Sheik match-up in the first few seconds :troll:
People overestimate Sheik all the time... I remember at Pound 4 right before Losers Finals everybody was like "Yeah, Sheik v Puff? TOTALLY Sheik's favour, such an easy matchup for her."

Then afterwards they're like "Okay, Jiggs/Sheik is 70/30."

A Jigglypuff that knows how to crouch makes the MU ridiculous for Sheik.

marth has very limited approach options against jiggs, i think thats the main reason.. He's basically forced to either go full offensive or defensive depending on the patience of the opponent. If he misses an aerial/smash or a f/u-tilt hes wide open to just about anything.

Jiggs is just a dumb character lewl, cbf learning how to play against her.
Just D-smash with Marth.
Works everytime.

Smash will prob happen at n2c if anywhere before the night, going to the venue isnt feesable.

Unless someone wants to host a friday night meet lol

Yea grim a MM sounds good. I won't john about that match specifically but i will say icies do good against shiek. best shiek counter in the game imo.

Jiggs vs Shiek is almost even (in ntsc.) My brother's main is jiggs and even though i gave up shiek him and i played all the time and shiek can control space againts jiggs really really well with needles and bair. And in ntsc you can d-throw instant 25 percent combo or u-air for kills at like 90% just have to be carefull not to grab or dash attack too much but shiek does have other strats than grab game and ledge guarding

Jiggs has no fun playing marth at all. and it's probably 6/4 she is almost limited to just bair and has to have really good spacing. the marth needs to **** up for the jiggs to do any real damage
