I forgot to ask: have you ever been in Canada, and do you think you will be [again]?

And why do you call yourself Boss and Suspect?

-me as a player (i am boss) mario (is the suspect)

Flameleon

Q. Anyway, Can you give everyone a brief synopsis of how to fight metaknight? You seem to be very proficient in the match up.
A. I have been in several tourneys in my brawl career, and i've won like 2-3, winning cash and a xbox360...back to answering:

Mk MU: it's a match where we have to keep distance from him and to space right in order to win, staying grounded, trying to get rid of his jumps and then, when he lands, we can punish him, we have the tools to control him, like using Fludd to move him towards the edge, fireballz to force his approach, cape to take a stock from him...we can actually edgeguard Mk if we're clever, most Mk's use gayloop to recover, if that happen, we can use cape jump to turn him back to his doom, if he uses tornado, what i use is, if it's a grounded one, i shoot a fireball and it will cancel it, causing mk to use drill rush and there's the chance to punish, if it's an aerial one, i can cape it or use Dair over him, there are chances to use Fsmash and punish severely, to kill him, is better to use Usmash for a safe kill, Fsmash to outrange his Dsmash, racking damage is done via Dair>Dsmash, Fireballz, Bair'ing his Dair camp, SHAD>jab combos, Dash attack to punish some mistakes...also, his shield is kinda bad, when recovering, we have to avoid his Dair, it will kill us, this is done either using Fludd to move him towards the stage or using reversal fireball to use a Bair on him...and, that's all, it's either a win for us or a 3 stock against us.

Q. How'd you get into competitive smash?
A. Since i've played melee, i was competitive, and i was one of the best Marios too, if not the best x9, but then, in brawl, the change was somewhat hard for me but i adapted eventually, after that, i started to get used to Mario in brawl, actually, i preffer Brawl Mario, and since i reached a decent lvl after brawl came out, i thought that i should traing to be one of the best Marios again, and that's what i'm doing...at least in my country, i'm like the best one, haha.

Q. what race are you? hispanic, asian, Jewish, black, white, etc.
A. I'm hispanic, just like Vato...

Q. Who do you think are the top marios in your opinion?
A. The top Marios are...umm, i think that there're a lot out there, actually, each one doing a good job in his area and because i don't usually read your tourney placing, i'm kinda not aware of whos placing better...but, i can tell u guyz something...the first step to take is to beat pros with Mario, so we can have recognition, that will boost confidence and eventually, placing high at tourneys will be easier to do...

Q. Who's your favorite Mario main?
A. I think my favorite Mario was ??????(remember him.?), he was like me, a very wise one, so i kinda liked him x9, and for now, well, i don't have a favorite one, so, i'm open to anyone who wants to be my pal xD

Q. what do you like more? AIB or SWF?
A. I like more AIB just because it's where i'm usually around, playing wifi and reading random things, but Sboards is actually very good to read a lot of brawl things, like MU, AT's, etc : )

Q. Flameleon, what would you say is the key to success as a Mario main?
A. Perseverance, patience, courage and everything that Ally, Adhd, M2k have...skillz x9

Q. What is your favorite match-up?
A. I like to play against...Low tier: Link, M tier: Luigi, H tier: Snake

Q. Do you plan on coming to any big tournaments in the US?
A. Whobo was on my mind but i don't think so, i guess, maybe, one day, i'll go to a Tx tourney but i don't know when...:<

Q. That's quite a regimen O_O

You play any other characters?
A. Nop, i only use Mario, so i can be ready for any kind of MU or situation...

Q. If you were a lion...would you choose to be part of a pride....or be by yourself roaming free
A. Being an animal born to roam free is kinda cool and all, but i think that being surrounded by more lions would be the one that i choose, because, it's better to have someone who can give you support, instead of being alone...

Q. You're ?????? Arent You?!?!?
A. Sadly, nope :<

Q. Flame, will you teach me how to WiFi Mario?
A. If you're willing to play wifi like me, sure

Q. are you a vato loco like me? =D
A. I'm not as loco as you, vato x9

Q. Favourite move in each category?
A. Ground: Jabs
Aerials: Dair
Special: Fireball
Grabs: Fthrow
Smashes: Fsmash
First or second jump: SHop
Airdodge, roll dodge or spot dodge: Spot dodge
Taunt: Utaunt
Sound effect: UpB=Coins x9
Victory Pose: X button (in case that u choose them)
When getting knocked out: Hitting the screen or flying out(You no the one were he yells.: Flying :)

Q. Why do you main Mario?
A. Because he's the only one who fits me completly...he uses fire, has a nice leadership, he never smiles, and stuff like that x9

Q. Favorite Mario game?
A. Super Mario 64

Q. what the hell does " x9 mean" and why do u use it all the time
A. It's a cool face with a tongue outside facing up, it has many uses but i use it as my trademark

Q. and how do you become creative/unique with mario? (your mario is definitely different then most regular marios)
A. Well, i've experimented a lot of things in my life, each one leading me to another and thanks to them, i've improved a lot with Mario, giving me the enough imagination to have an unique playstyle overall

Q. i challenge you to a tech skill off(video)!
A. That's not a question ;9

Q. Why have I never seen this thread before?
A. Because you're half Link

Q. How do you do the Mario?
A. I do it with POWAA...

Q. Why so pro with Mario, yo?
A. Dunno, maybe coz i'm lucky x9

Q. Favorite food?
A. Spaguetti.!!! : D

Q. You said you play offline....Do you play at tourneys? If so, how do you place?
A. Yes, i do and at my last tourney played, i ended in 3rd place, but my crewmate Mk won it, so... : )

Q. Seen your post in the DTM4, about Chrono Cross, haha yea, I love CC too...my favourite game! What's your top 5 songs from the game? (You had to have at least have some of the songs downloaded if you've played the game .)

A. It's my favourite too.! actually, i own the OST, so, let's see...

1.-Chrono Cross ~Scars of Time~
2.-Prisoners of Fate
3.-Star-Stealing Girl
4.-Radical Dreamers ~The Unstolen Jewel~
5.-Dreamwatch of Time

omfg, i really love the entire OST xD

Q. Flame, I'm a big Chrono Trigger fan, but I've never played Cross. Should I check it out? I've heard it's totally different than Trigger, but as long as it's a good game I probably won't mind.
A. If you have the time, sure, check it out, but, CT fans usually only plays it without even trying CC

Q. Dear Flameleon.....
My cactus is pointy...ow
A. ...Don't touch it o.0

Q. How do you feel about the world and the media these days?
A. The world is a sad place to live, nowdays, but that's our fault and about the media, i think that one day, we'll start to feel inside our heads, all those wireless data that travels everyday and then, something is gonna change inside us...well, stuff like that.

Q. What was better, the 90s or 2000s? and why?
A. I preffer the 90's, because, there were a lot of good things about it: good movies, a better society, better air, a world without crisis, a world without a deep globalization and all that, definitely, a lot better than 2000.

Q. flameleon what is your favorite MU as a mario?
A. Mmm, i think than someone asked me that question before, but, i think that i will answer differently:

1-HTier: Snake(They're so fun to play against, but only if u have the lead x9)
2-MTier: Either DK, Sonic or Luigi (just for the rivalry)
3-LTier: Falcon.! (****, that MU is epic xD) –

Q. what is your favorite color?
A. Red is my favourite

Q. Do you prefer day or night?
A. I preffer night, mostly because i'm awake when it's dark and i usually sleep when there's daylight x9

Q. alcohol or mary jane use?
A. o.0...

Q. Stoned lain too good. Flame, why is your wifi Mario so legit?
A. I think than it's because i have a lot of reading skills and also, i can buffer a lot of things in Wifi, so i can keep a good battle against almost anyone...

Q. (Personal question) From playing me a couple of times, what do you think my Mario needs to work on the most?
A. I can't remember how'd u played...perhaps, we should play again and then, i'll give u some feedback and tips...

Where would you rank yourself on a Mario power rankings, if we were to have them?
In the top 3, no joke. Mabye that's just my arrogance but I really think I'm that good. Or was, I'm not sure how good I am anymore.

When's the last time you played Bo?
November, I think.

XeroXen, you're a cool guy and nobody gives you enough credit. Not even I do.

Am I cool with you dude?
Totally, I mean I used to dislike you but you're pretty cool now that I know you're not totally stupid. =D


Anyways, what's it like being a successful troll, Xero?
It's opened a lot of doors and possibilities, I've been offered money because of my trolling skills. My Mario has even improved because of it!

Whats your favorite move in each catagory?


Ground atks: Dtilt
Aerial atks: Fair
Specials: Up-B
Throws: Fthrow
Smashes: Usmash
Taunts: UTaunt
Short hop, full hop or second jump?: Second Jump, everybody should know why.
Victory Pose: I don't really pay attention... the one with the fire.
Roll or spot dodge: Spot Dodge, he looks pretty cool doing it, but it's still bad.
Sound effect: WOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!

Your Mario sucks, gtfo. Just kidding! I'm sure it's good I haven't really been paying attention lately.

Lots of practice, and determination!

I don't even know who she is!

Do you know a lot of memes and about /b/ and ED and other ****?

I think it's a 4Chan reference, but I can't be sure.

What's ur most treasured tourney set?

A lot of people have been dumbfounded by how much you seem to improve between tournaments. How do you do it?

Now that you have your license, will you come to Muncie and teach me Mario?

Going with a second barrage of questions, though the first hadn't been answered yet:

Are you considering going to the Showdown weekend after MLG?
I know you haven't played my Mario since Nope's in... January was it? What did you think of it (if you remember)?
What advice would you give to new or struggling Mario mains?
Do you put in a lot of practice when you're on your own?
Who do you think are other solid or great Mario mains, if you pay attention to that?
Why do you hate Mario dittos so much?

What is the matchup that you have the most difficulty in (sans MK)? Besides MK... mabye Kirby, or Lucario, or DDD. Those are my most hated matchups besides MK.

What is the matchup you have the easiest time with? Actually, I'm pretty good against Olimar! And I think Captain Falcon is really easy too, Luigi is sort've easy too, for me anyway.

Who would you consider your "rival(s)" in the MW or otherwise? My rivals are probably Mario mains who are considered better than me haha! At least in my mind.

Who do you enjoy playing against the most? I really enjoy playing against other Marios as a learning and teaching experience. I also enjoy getting together with the people in my town and playing smash with them, even though their not very good. Basically, I like playing most people as long as they don't get too worked up about friendlies haha!

The least? Anybody who plays Lucas.

What do you think your strongest area is, in terms of Mario? My strongest area is probably being able to respond to situations with the right moves, and my great OoS game and really awesome spacing!

Weakest? I fall for dumb stuff that shouldn't work alot, and I get a little too aggressive and like to fall right into the enemy's traps, which I've been working on.

Do nerves come in to play when you start a set? Yes! Nerves affected me much more before than they used to, however you can still usually see me shaking before the first tourney game (and after, if it was really close... and the set after) it's just so intense for me, but I love the rush!

Are you a player that needs to get off to a quick start to win matches/sets? Oddly, I don't actually start getting warmed up until the END. I do alot of comebacks because I spend most of the game analyzing the opponent as I play, but I've been working on trying to stay consistent throughout the game rather than at the end.

Do you enjoy the MW smash scene? The MW smash scene is the best, everybody is supercool and doesn't afraid of anything.
Answered in quote due to laziness.

XeroXen, who is this noob above me?
That would be my son, XeroXennie.

What game systems do you own?
I own (not counting retro systems), a Wii... and that's it. Counting old systems, I have a SNES, Genesis, N64, PS2, GBC, GBA, and that's it, my DS has gone missing D:

Xero; How much wood would a Woodchuck chuck if a Woodchuck could Chuck Norris?
That's illogical, Chuck Norris would equal an infinite amount of wood, which no Woodchuck could chuck.

xero ur thoughts on tl/mario in teams? TL/Mario? I have no idea, I've never even played a Toon Link!!! It seems like it could work out... kind've, mabye.

am i the cutest mario in the nation? You're ranked #1 on the Mario Cute Power Rankings.

your regular playstyle with mario? I typically force them to approach or put them in an undesirable position and punish with moves, if I'll see an opening I'll go for a small combo and retreat, rinse and repeat. It's pretty great, regardless of how basic it may sound.

how do you usually start off the match? Usually with a fireball of some kind... or a forward air!

which habits do you pick on when ur fighting in a tourney set? I'll notice defensive/offensive habits that the opponent has and change my defensive and offensive options accordingly, unless I'm really tired. Or, if I don't care, I will just keep falling for the same things! (Or if I don't know how to deal with it, in which case I'll keep testing ways around it.)
In quotes loooool

Facebook! And my good friend Javix, and of course right here on the Mario boards!

Xero, what is your least favorite character in Brawl to play as?
Pit. Pit. Pit. Pit. Lucas. Pit. Pit.

A lot of people have been dumbfounded by how much you seem to improve between tournaments. How do you do it? Not only do I practice with other people and practice my technical ability, but I also spend quite a bit of time analytically thinking about the game, whether it be through sheer speculation or by watching videos. I think the more exposure that a person has to the game, the better they will be, regardless of what kind of exposure.

Now that you have your license, will you come to Muncie and teach me Mario? Whenever I get a car and gas, I'll try!

Going with a second barrage of questions, though the first hadn't been answered yet:

Are you considering going to the Showdown weekend after MLG? Honestly, it doesn't look like it at the moment unless I have leftover money, but if that's the case then I will!

I know you haven't played my Mario since Nope's in... January was it? What did you think of it (if you remember)? I don't remember much except that... well... I'm not even sure! I think I was finding openings and doing punishable things, but I can't remember very well.

What advice would you give to new or struggling Mario mains? Keep playing the game and try to find your own tricks. I, for one, took a vow not to watch any other videos of any other Marios because I wanted to develop my own style of play, and stuff. I still don't watch videos very often unless I critique them or it's a combo video or something.

Do you put in a lot of practice when you're on your own? When I'm on my own? I might do some WiFi, but before WiFi I ALWAYS practice tech skill against computers beforehand, and it usually helps out.

Who do you think are other solid or great Mario mains, if you pay attention to that? I think the other great Mario mains are Famous, KirinBlaze looks pretty solid, A2Z is pretty smart (I haven't seen vids though), and Boss... I guess (I'm pretty biased against Boss).

Why do you hate Mario dittos so much? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j27_uUU-ECM and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CGpyjzFQPU&feature=related

What's the single most ridiculous move/combo/whatever you've ever pulled off in Brawl with Mario?
