man i wish i was good enough to be used as an example of how much time i put into mario but i ****ing guess not since all i do is get 2 stocked by a cf and doubt my mario and get last place in tourneys i ****ing suck in brawl ****
If it was Ally's CF, then don't sweat it. I think he beat Bo with C. Falcon. If not, then maybe he was just a legit player

Yeah.

Link/Jiggz is not fun.
I would of won the second match, but WiFi wouldn't let me shield the Claw on Halberd so it hit me and I died and it also wouldn't let me DI out of the laser so I took 60% JUST as I had KO'd G-Reg's second stock.

God WiFi is so awesome.
Oh wifi. Sometimes will destroy you. Sometimes will make you win.

Yeah I just gotta practice more against ROB. We have no good ones here on LI for me to play offline against. xD
I know they aren't LI, but there's Ninjalink and JG which are probably the closest ROB's you can find. No idea how far a commute because my sense of distance/time is awful.

@Vato - Kick some Yoshi ***!

Because Zelda doesn't have any good players since she's a horrible character.

I've been trying my best to get vids uploaded of my doing whatever, but unfortunately my last tourney didn't have any recording stations!

Yea, once I got my license and car, I was able to go to a lot more tourneys.

@Judge: Isn't the drinking age in Germany 16 though.

@Hades: I'll try to get on Wifi more often if you still want that Mario practice.

@Vato: If you need help with Hades' Yoshi, I got you there.

Psshhh, Vato it seems your worried about Fire giving him some practice, you worried you might lose? Don't worry, you got this. Unless he beats you.

Nothing yet, he did get warned, however.

Probably an alt.

I knew fire when I was still a scrub... I'd feel betrayed if he didn't play me. :p

Though I am actually surprised that he's going to do it... between him and my (lolz wifi) clanny DEsean I might have the matchup down by next week :p

I'm very upset Kirin didn't get to play for you guys D: they should have let him play for both of his characters.

Also, this was the Ad, just thought I'd share it LOL



It must be a sign that Marios will **** :D

I'm rooting for you guys (After the Ganon boards of course ;D)

This.

Keep in mind that I have about a years worth of practice with Hades playstyle so I know almost every bit about him. Your free to ask.

Edit: Looks like I uploaded one of our matches.

That's mad old, but it's cool to watch an old vid of yourself and see how much you've improved... and it's just fire vs yoshi? I don't even get a name :(

Oh! Since you get to watch videos of me, lets see if I can find any of vato on youtube...

Too Good...

I decided to take the Ninjalink approach with naming my matches.

All hades does is spam eggs and pivot grabs, just force him to approach with fireballs and he should crumble like a year old diaper.

That's the gameplan of most Yoshis. Force you to approach, run away, then punish you for chasing him.

He's pretty good at it too, almost as good as ZSS.

Yoshi is terrible at it, he has a huge *** blind spot right where his nose is. Abuse that spot (particularly with fireballs) and you'll win. Vato, my yoshi is rusty as hell but I'll be glad to play you to give you matchup knowledge :)

I've found Yoshi a relatively simple matchup. I just play fast, bait a lot with F-smash, and I win. I don't need to think very hard to just do stuff that naturally works.

Seriously, Mario just is kinda too good for low tiers. He's got all the options in low tiers when it comes to pressure, camping, edge game, edgeguarding, and reliably KOing.

Anyhow about that matchup, Mario's aerials are faster and do more damage per hit generally, so he's got an advantage in damage dealing. Yoshi has a bit of an advantage in survival due to his weight, although his recovery can very much be cape *****. Cape also is pretty good against his Egg Toss, as it's a projectile you are likely to benefit from reflecting a lot. Mario can also do all sorts of ridiculous stuff on Yoshi's Shield, and generally speaking if you play fast, you can Jab him before he can do stuff out of shield.

When it comes to KO moves, Yoshi is very predictable. He has three main methods of KOs. Fresh U-air (telegraphed like any U-air), Hyphen Smash (which he can't combo into really) and spacing F-smash (which is honestly pretty easy to predict if you ask me). Mario is at an advantage landing KO moves due to having an even better F-smash, and due to his U-smash out of shield being great to punish a number of the approaches Yoshi might do.

If he tries to space F-smash, what I find you can usually do if you see this coming is just charge F-smash. The goal here is to abuse the leanback to punish his attempt to space on you. I've won matches in low tiers this way.

Then I had this awesome set with Dark Peach. Game 2 was really close. A lot of fun. I never lost to another Peach after that though. Thanks DPeach. <3
You're welcome (I know, so late)

Game 2 I nearly regret teaching you how to get at Peach. I nearly cost me that match so had to switch it up last minute, which was not easy to do. But yes the set was fun. And I told you after I played you in friendlies that you should not lose to another Peach.

Oh and hello Mario Players.
