people are always finding out how to be better. they read the guides, they learn the infinates, they DSHL and quad-fair, and link grabs to knees and such, but then they go against their link friend and get owned.
now why is that? they did it all right, they worked to be faster, quicker, and they can punish a lvl 9 with no mercy?
is the link cheating? or is there some other factor....
bum-bum-BUM! mind games. we all talk about it and most of us have no idea what one is. mind games psyche out the opponent and can set you up for your strong attacks and combos. wanna get on the mind game train game?
well i thought that this thread would be a good place to discuss mind games at their finest. some examples, you ask? sure!
your friend just sit there with [insert character name] and shield grabs, but you don't have any projectiles. your aerials seem pointless, what do you do?
you could:
A: run past them and reset the scenario with their back turned.
B: double jump as you get into their range and as they grab you dair them.
C: do some SHFFL somethings, and as you go to hit them with it, you wavedash land backwards and preform a dash-grab.
D:do a taunt half-way there....
well, you get the point.
so post some mind games that have worked out for you. if this conversation leads to nowhere, just close it, but maybe we could have some healthy, informative discussion. also, please add who you're doing this with. some mind games don't work with some characters. (taunting with mario persay, might not be so good...)
