You're the new Joel. Switch teammates repeatedly by picking someone that has a better placement each time XD

Solve your troubles and team with Ripple or Ook sometime.

I can give you betting odds on which people from NE ohio will make it

Odds of going / odds of not going

98/2 - Ithrowthings
95/5 - King Yoshi
80/20 - ArgentStew
75/25 - Fromundaman
60/40 - BYAA
40/60 - Falco400
40/60 - Riddler
30/70 - Shugo
25/75 - Beegs
10/90 - King Beef
5/95- BlueRogue
.1/99.9 - nojoes
.1/99.9 - Vidjo

PKfire isn't on the list because he's going back to Texas. He shall be missed. BUT HE'S ALSO GONNA DESTROY THOSE TEXAS NOOBS!


But I think you can see my usual dillemma. It looks like there should be about 7 people that will make it you crunch the numbers. Only problem is 8 people say they're gonna totally make it then 1 person backs out last minute and only 5 people fit in a car, then depending on the situation you either convince a second person to drive and pick people up along the way, or you get desperate and drive up to MI then drive back 28 hours straight...

OS:
Kel went to Japan, so I don't really count switching from Kel as switching. I would have stayed with Kel the whole circuit cause we were getting better each time we teamed.

Bowyer and I simply didn't click. In fairness we lost to the team that got 1st and 3rd at C4 (en route to getting 9th), but against each of those teams we had 2 v 1 opportunities (in game 1!) and we blew both chances. That is a chemistry issue.

So basically I've switched once voluntarily.

And also in fairness: Kel usually gets 5th, Bowyer gets 7th-9th, Judge gets top 3.
I usually place 3-5. (Circuit events from this year: champs 4th, 1st event 3rd, 2nd event 5th - and probably should have been at least forth, stupid suicides). So I didn't really upgrade each event. I just went with the MK's who I knew were good and were available.

So now its the best MW Diddy teaming with the best MW MK. Judge and I are gonna be a very scary team. I don't even wanna think about what we will be pulling on people cause I get to excited. Speaking of which, Judge, we should try to practice on AiB some now that they have a doubles ladder (unless you already got a team on AiB).

DK - Diddy is eh. I think Diddy's best teammates are:
Meta Knight
Zelda
ROB
GW
And then idk. MK is obviously the best choice because he can stay in the air and work around bananas better than almost any other characters (Diddy handles the ground, MK handles the air). Zelda is actually incredibly good with Diddy cause you can team combo with bananas and dins fire mad easy. It is pretty much impossible to lose a 2v1 if you have Diddy/Zelda. you could each be at 200% and the opponent at 0% and the opponent shouldn't be able to touch you. Not to mention Zelda can really punish trips.

DK may work, I've just never really teamed with one. Off the top of my head trip > donkey punch sounds amazing.

EDIT: We need a mirror of this thread in the Tournament Listings area. I don't know why we never post these there, but if we do this will grab probably a bunch of extra attention.

Does Wario's bike beat bananas?

Wario can be played in a very versitle manner. Although, he is primarily played by using his floatyness to stay aerial while punishing mistakes with his disjointed and easily auto canceled aerials. Because Wario's airdodge is above average, he should be able to easily catch Diddy's banana peels. The question, then, is how well Wario utilizes banana peels. I've heard banana peel to Wario DACUS works fairly well, but don't take my work on that. Hypothetically speaking, Diddy and Wario could prosper in the same way Diddy and Zelda could. Zelda's metagame revolves stictly around Din's Fire to force an approach. She doesn't have to move at all, which means less chance to accidetally strike her with a banana. Additionally, I believe that Diddy must be placed with a 'campy' character (with the exception of Meta Knight) to do well in doubles.

I agree that this thread should be posted in the tournament listings section as well. Out of state attention would make it even better.

ITT,

If you end up needing a second car, I unwillingly offer to drive... I would prefer not to, but I know it can't be avoided and you could probably use some help driving everyone everywhere everytime... But I think everyone knows you're a better driver than I am... :p

Also, what's with pairing up with Byaa at King Yoshi's? I thought you wanted practice for this... That's why I asked if you wanted to team... I had an actual reason for it... :/

80/20? Really? I've got nothing else going on...

Oh, and remind me to get a good night's sleep before this one... :p


Also, I talked to Vidjo recently... He sounds like he's too busy to play for now...

Springfield, would you guys potentially have open space at your house for some serious training the day before?

Also, potentially another Yoshi main coming! Get excited all...
