Bthrow is like, my main damage racker up close. Better than a jab combo, can lead to pummels for more damage at high percents, and can put the opponent in a bad position. If it killed, it would never be fresh for me anyway...

I beg to differ. Just host a tournament and ban MK/Snake/Dedede/anyone who gives mario trouble and bam, he's good

too bad you'd ban half the cast lol

I'm gettin' better at that match-up, man. Soon I'll be able to handle pocket MKs at least.

We should team more tho. I need to improve in dubz anyways.

I dunno, I'm beginning to like it more and more. You don't have to worry about chasing your opponent all over the stage, either.

I can't tell you how much I hate doing that ****.

I LOVE doubles. Lol I'm probably better at doubles than I am at singles in all honesty… Idk I just enjoy playing the support character and reacting to my teammate's decisions. My roommate in college plays DK and I team with him all the time in friendlies and I've gotten pretty decent at randomly caping his throws or aerials for super early kills. :p

I've been playing with Pierce some this week and I'm really disappointed in my Mario. It might just be that he knows me well and the last tourney I went to was in May of 2011 but I felt really rusty/sloppy. I'm going to Uprise tomorrow and might end up pulling out my Snake that I've been working on recently. Might also do a double blind pick to trick people since people don't know about my Snake. So nice to land a two hit combo and deal 21%.

Also doubles is a lot of fun.

I think I'm going to try to go Mario some tomorrow. No promises though since I am one of the most fickle people when it comes to who I use in bracket.

On one hand, I wanna believe you, Vato. You're a great player. 3rd best Diddy and Mario. But on the other I just don't see the merit of not using an extra 15% when it's basically given to you at such an early percent that you're bound to freshen it back up by the time you can actually consider using it to kill. By all means save the Dsmash for a kill until the right percent, but I'm gonna whip one out early on to get that percentage.

Besides, I tend to get my kills from utilt these days. Wonderful move, fresh.

honestly if you are going to use kill move for damage, it should be upsmash. High priority, combos, and a great OoS move. I would save dsmash for kills though, you can replace tilts and grabs for it most of the time.

I like to use Fsmash to rack up damage. People aren't nearly as wary of it at lower percentages and in high level play people are going to dodge it most of the time at high percents anyway, and it's easy to bait **** and do damage with it.

Some of my cousins had what was colloquially known as a Skittles (or M&Ms) graduation which consisted of having all the people who had to graduate late or over the summer from a bunch of schools have their ceremony at once so you had all sorts of colored gowns, lol.
