So all those other players are like.. 2 others that aren't power ranked? xD

Cali's pretty big, there's NorCal AND SoCal, and within SoCal, there's even power rankings within communities, like Vato's xD

I can name just as many people that aren't on the list (or more) than people who are.

Indiana/Kentucky is... not very big. Indiana is way smaller (player wise) than Kentucky, we're a state filled with corn... that's all we have! CORN AND MARIO MAINS!

And Kentucky is just Kentucky. Of course we're not going to have as many people as California.

...Who?

Xisin def. considers himself KY, and right now he's the best KY player. (Just not on the list)

If you're talking about Overswarm, he chose to be on the Ohio list before IN/KY PRs even merged.

Hey Marios.

Been playing Mario for a week or so. Been going through the guides and whatnot.
I can't really go much further without feedback though, so I'll try getting videos up sometime soon so I can figure out where I can improve.

Mmhmm.

Well, what general problems do you have with Mario?

And, where's your sig Espy :p. I love that haha.
Well, I haven't had many opportunities to really play any matches with other people as of yet, so I kinda don't have any basic material to work off of.

If I fish for anything on the surface, then I can say that I'm having difficulty with that cape glide shenanigan.

Oh, I did have a question concerning that too:

Can you cape glide with a pivoted sideB?

=====

Got you before your edit. Too slow!!
And it's right down there....

Hero, this is random, but I love your Rosalina avatar. Makes the Mario boards a little nicer to look at. :)
Haha, You should see the full image.

I won't be able to try it until later, but what would the input/timing be? Is it just a sideB while running off the ledge of a platform, followed by the pivot?

Does it do the standard cape glide, but with Mario in reverse?

And Rita dances to ALL music, ALL day.

Haha, You should see the full image.

The full image is lovely. I remember seeing it somewhere before.

The artist is named sigurdhosenfield I believe. He has a ton of peach/dasiy/Rosalina art and more on his Deviant art page.

I'm not entirely sure on the Pivoted Cape Glide, Famous pretty much answered it too.

And yes you did, I looked up and seen your sig I was like God I'm dumb >_>, but you caught me before the edit lulz.

Do you know how to do Mario's Sliding Up-smash? If you don't, then learn it now. Mario's run velocity is highest right when his feet touch the ground. Interrupting his dash at this point with an Up-smash or Cape causes you to retain this high forward momentum.

After you learn to perfectly time Sliding Up-smashes, Cape gliding will be easy. I should point out, the EXACT distance Mario needs to run in order to get optimal Cape Glide or Sliding Up-smash distance happens to be the length of PS1 platforms (before transformations occur).

And yeah you can Cape Glide in reverse, but only on platforms that you can jump through.

Another funny thing to keep in mind, in hacks of Brawl where you can cancel dash with crouch (Brawl+, Brawl-), Mario can do a Sliding D-smash as well lmao.

Basically you watch the initial dash animation until Mario's feet touch the ground. At around that point, then you can hit C stick Up and hold Z.

The time you spend charging Up-smash on a full length sliding Up-smash makes Up-smash so powerful that it kills heavies in the 120s.

Didn't know if Xisin was KY or IN, nor if he was better than OS or not, but yeah, OS lives in KY (to my knowledge), so that was who I was refering to.

I got some videos recorded tonight of me vs. a friend's Marth. I'll try getting them up soon, somehow.

While playing the matches, I realized that I need quite a bit more work than I thought. ;;
That, and I froze because I had no idea what to do sometimes. lol

LOOOOOL

Not a single ex-"proshi" ever used metaknight; They all quit or main DDK now. And our metagame is rapidly advancing without them, ironically.

And you guys need to be switching with Sonic on that there tier list, so step it up. I BELIEVE IN Y'ALL.
