A counterpick list seems fine to me, although Mario only really needs it for his worst match-ups like DDD and Metaknight... which are like his two only very bad match-ups.

You weren't invited to the Pipe House, J-Prep? Just PM Famous and he'll let you in.

Everyone's allowed XD

They closed his thread though (for no reason might I add) so getting all the names was kinda difficult.

If you want in on the Pipe House just PM Famous and I'm sure he'll let you in.

Mario_101, that sounds like a good idea.

I noticed a lot of other Boards have a Chat Thread, it'd be pretty cool if someone who knew how to program to get one as well.

Link boards, Ganon boards, and a few others have created a Chat Room, in their General Discussion Thread, we're it's like an IM kinda thingy. It's hard to explain xD.

I like my avatar :D.

Edit: Moderators are going around closing General Threads/Chat Room Threads, they attract spam and stuff...so I'm just saying my 'goodbyes' to this thread ;).

Lol...Mario looks freaking amazing with the Santa Hat and the 'iShroom.'

I just copied the Santa hat picture, I actually didn't draw it :laugh:.

Anyone is free to take it, it's Christmas :).

I used Microsoft paint :laugh:

Awhile back, I had photoshop. That was a huge step down. Still got the job done, lol

I prefer Paint over Photoshop...like I've seen some videos of what people can do in Paint, it's pretty amazing. Photoshop is just hella hard to use, for me. I just know how to do very basic things.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's just...from one extreme to the other, lol.

I'd rather have all the options I need + more, than to have most of the options I need, and be missing a few. I wouldn't know what Paint is fully capable of though, I barely ever use it.

Hi everyone. I'm a Mario main again guys.

Just saying. Mario is too good. Besides, I hear a few people say I do better with Mario than with G&W. O_o

I honestly don't see why G&W is so hard. Nearly everything Mario does (or CAN do) is faster than him. He's got the priority and the juggles, but if he's slow and predictable...

He doesn't even kill that much earlier than we do...Since he's so light, Usmash kills at 100.

G&W is hard due to his spacing ability. If the player just runs in going "LOL TURTLE TURTLE!" and expects to win, it's not going to happen, but if G&W spaces effectively then it can be big trouble.

I would know this since I had to fight G&W at my last tourney, and I had to CP with Ike. ~_~

Mario of course, does have the tools to win, although not easily. If you know how to fight G&W effectively then you won't really have to abuse FIHL, although it gives you the edge.

I was thinking about that matchup the other day. (I got 2 stocked)

I was relying on fludd too much. Without a decent followup afterwards. I didnt punish his Bair with OOS Upb everytime. Didnt punish his Dair correctly, 2nd hit of it would always get with me. Nair was a monster. Still havent thought of a decent punishment for that one. Fair stays out pretty long, so he'd just nudge me with it at times to attempt a gimp on me.

Only thing I'm on point with is shooting fireballs. & cape. :laugh:

The main thing that was killing me was the stage and his playstyle. Constant offensive on BF. Throwing out attacks nonstop, but safetly,.

Guess it's back to the drawing board. :chuckle:

I actually just played G&W on WiFi about three times. He was better than the one I played at the tourney.

I used Ike first round, got hurt pretty bad (2-stocked) due to WiFi not allowing me to space well. Then I decided to say 'screw it' and switched to Mario.

I must say... while the first round was close... the next two were pure ****. Matador is right, Mario's aerials come out faster than G&W's in almost all categories. Once you're inside you can combo him pretty heavily, and U-air comes out faster than G&W's D-air, which means you can attack under G&W. It's just like how Matador said... it's not even hard to KO G&W at all. Only takes 110% to kill with U-Smash. Plus, it's awesome to abuse G&W's delay on the bucket. He tries to bucket it while he's at 100%, it's a free F-Smash.

1st match I got 1-stocked
2nd match I 3-stocked G&W
3rd match I 2-stocked G&W

I'm leaning towards 60:40 G&W now, but I've yet to meet a G&W that actually spaces.

I actually fireball hoping that they'll bucket. I'm not sure if good ones bucket or if they don't, but if they do and I'm close, that's free % that he can't afford to pick-up. I still need to play a really good one. Soon enough though.

Edit: BoX7's so good now...it's silly.

BigB has picked up Brawl again, and his Mario is the most defensive one I've ever played...

JO~P is **** with his Fair. He makes it look like a good move.

Just an update on some of the great Marios right now.

Well one thing I've learned about G&W is that he has a hard time getting an agressive Mario off him once Mario gets inside his range. Also, the cape helps a lot in this match-up as well as the FLUDD; you can cape all his aerials and his moves on the ground. What I usually do in this match-up is start off defensive with the FLUDD and stay on him once I'm able to get inside his range.

PS: I strongly think this match-up is 60:40 in G&W's favor
