Oh damn, Boss is coming back for some Mario?!

 

[Calebyte]

It's about damn time.

 

[Matador]

Cant link the vid from my phone. Go to the "best vids of each character" thread, or check UsurperKingZant's recent youtube uploads.

He's kinda BEEN using Mario fellas. He just plays luigi more.

[Calebyte]

Well in any case, it's good to see more stuff from him. Here's his match vs Logic.

Matador, did you get any vids from the tourney?

EDIT: LOL, totally ninja'd.

 

[Matador]

I may have a doubles set, but its nothing spectacular. All of my other matches were on other set-ups.

I'll link you to it whenever it's up.

Good s**t boss. Reppin dat Mario.

 

[Coolwhip]

Go boss, you're still the ish!

<---God-tier?!

 

[boss8]

thanks guys but i still have a long way to go if i wanna make mario god tier xD

 

[A2ZOMG]

Pretty cool matches there Boss.

I personally think you need to be more confident in the fireball approach, and that Logic made some pretty serious recovery errors in the first match. You should also practice more implementation of autoJabs and Jab 2 hit confirms, and use D-air for removing Pikmin and platform pressure on BF (SH D-air low platforms, fullhop D-air top platform).

I also couldn't help thinking that you should have grabbed more after successful spotdodges instead of D-smash.

Also Mario users, pay attention to 6:42. THAT is how you recover with Mario. Don't waste Cape mindlessly trying to get more distance on your recovery. Use the Cape to counter edgehogs.

That's good stuff. I'm gonna start doing this now.

 

[condemned_soul]

caping more then twice in the air at once is time wasting to me. I enjoy caping at the peek of my jump for the extra boost.

Can you reach the top platform on BF if you double jump and flag at the peek of your second jump? I havent play brawl in a while but iirc you can

 

[JuxtaposeX]

I see nothing too special with how Boss recovered at 6:42 or so

 

[SKidd]

That's why Mario's recovery is underrated



It's really hard to edgehog him

FIXED -_^b

 

[fromundaman]

No joke. Them dreamland characters gimp Mario pretty easily.

 

[Matador]

D3's Bair is ****in' stupid dude...

It beats EVERYTHING.

Agree with everything khaos said.

<---Gonna be top-tier.

 

[Matador]

No doubt...I'm feeling really good about Mario this year...

Between Calebyte being a wtfamazing mod, and all of these new, talented Marios sprouting up...then opening the year with a Boss video...

And I'm finally active and actually LEARNING the game...gonna be great. Mario's rising next tier list.

 

[Coolwhip]

Oh yeah. 2011 is the year of the mario. Let's get started on "Do the Mario 4" already.

 

[~ Gheb ~]

This year will be a Mario party.

 

[DtJ XeroXen]

To be honest, who cares where Mario is on the tier list? He more than likely isn't going to move much. And honestly, a tier list shouldn't be changed so often. Maybe once or twice, characters don't magically get more options. Although ATs can technically change that, we aren't about to discover anything we didn't know. He's the exact same character, he isn't going to move.

Tbh, I think the way this game's tier list is determined is pretty jank anyway. It's pretty much based on tournament results, which has nothing to do with the effectiveness of a character.

 

[fromundaman]

Agreed 100%

This year will be a Mario party.

Haha, that made me laugh.

Caping doesn't work in Brawl like it does in Melee. In Melee it DOES boost your momentum upwards and in the direction you are moving on the FIRST use of Cape.

In Brawl, it merely sets your aerial momentum to basically 0 in all directions on the first use.

Caping for gaining distance is pointless in Brawl, unlike Melee. Learn from the example of the Marth players. They don't use their SideB for distance anymore. They use it to counter edgehogs.

 

[boss8]

turney tommrow i will have vids of my mario n weegee......

shoutouts to mario

True.

Boss, grab more. You did Dsmash a bit after some spotdodges, but it got sheilded a good amount. Great matches though.

I've been thinking...has anyone noticed Mario is a pretty fast character outside of like...2 moves? I was thinking the other day on what Mario has over others...4/5 of his aerials are fast, and chain into each other with little lag. If only he had just a tad bit more range though.

 

[A2ZOMG]

What I really wish about Mario instead of him having more range is that his combos were more reliable, and that he just did slightly more damage on his damage dealers. I mean Mario's F-tilt and Jabs are GREAT. Just F-tilt only does 8%, and full Jab combo does 9%. That's just kinda stupidly low. And U-tilt only does 7%, and you need to know what percents it properly starts juggles. Lastly B-air is an awesome aerial poke, but actually comboing after it is really tricky.

 

[2fast]

I've got a video here for some critique

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOftFimte8Y

Overall I think I fought Sonic mostly correct except for I need to be smarter with my f-smash and up-smash as I missed them most of the time and got punished for their lag time. More critique is always appreciated :D.

For entertainment purposes if anyone wants to watch me getting horribly destroyed by a Kirby from 4 months ago when I was sucking nuts then please enjoy:

Note: Don't critique these, they're from awhile ago and I've gotten way better since then (I MM that same Kirby recently and lost then MM him a few hours later and beat his Kirby).

I agree stack.

 

[Calebyte]

I'm posting videos of Steep that I recorded for him, with a few Mario dittos for bonus. You love watching Mario dittos, right?

vs Comrade (ROB)
vs Metaknight
vs Calebyte (Mario) 1
vs Calebyte (Mario) 2

And here's one more of me, this was from draft crews, and I did bad in it, only won because of something dumb. Critique plox.

vs Peep (Sheik)

 

[~ Gheb ~]

I'm going to a smashfest soon today. I don't know if there will be a Low Tier event but I will record friendlies in either case.

vs Peep (Sheik)

If I really felt like it, and maybe if you ask nicely enough, I probably could point out individual situations where I know I would have made different decisions, but somehow I feel like that's not really going to explain how to use Mario intelligently at this point. To some extent, I feel that both you and Steep simply need to get better at reactions. It's not like you guys really don't understand the applications of Mario's moves, but you have to be able to better recognize situations where you can punish or pressure consistently. For example I noticed you really failed to capitalize on some RCO lag situations that were obvious in the ditto matches. It's as if you weren't paying attention to the fact that you hit him before he was able to land.

Oh and besides that....Steep needs to autoJab more especially against ROB (you actually implement AutoJabs pretty well, though there was definitely a situation where I recognized you were Jabbing him in the air, which would EASILY combo into D-smash). Both of you should learn buffered U-air out of shield, and should dodge less on reflex.

Vs Sheik, don't jump against her unless it's absolutely necessary for juggling/edgeguarding/pressuring her. She has the best anti-air options in the game, so being above her is almost always bad. You have to outdo her on the ground and capitalize as much as possible from juggles, combos, and edgeguards to win.

I'm gonna get a new video uploaded soon. :]

And that does it for my Pound V collection. Criticism always welcome since know I'm not a perfect Mario (most noticably my Logic match and the excessive use of sidestepping against Will).

 

[A2ZOMG]

Watched the set against Will, your Jab cancel game is so good. I applaud the smart hit confirms. I feel there were times you could have baited into F-smash and that you could have done a bit better if you were more confident there, but overall some of the most solid Mario gameplay I've seen on youtube in a while.

Also, ducking. More of it would be good against DK.

 

[KMFBrawler]

@2fast: I can imagine why liked the 2nd match against Will better. Nice cape game you have there
