NIIIIIIICEEEE!!!

im jealous of everyone who got to see you in action!

and sorry joon, I am going to be taking the first (nick's) answer

funny cause I was gonna take joon's answer, until I got the reference like half a minute later. . . . =D

so the answer is yes, I will be going to ownapalooza on sunday, pending no plans that could affect school, which is highly unlikely


Happy 500th page! I knew we could do it!

Luigi is bad in brawl so don't worry. Esam did priy gud for a pikachu (chaingrabs all the way). He beat MikeHaze and almost beat our boy ADHDFoy. Wow the top 8 was all different characters except there were 2 MKs, but I am impressed by the variety.

If only Modesto had half a dozen good brawl players to play against. Actually does anyone even play brawl in NorCal anymore? hahaha.

Meta Knight, the meta game.

i was looking at the top 8 of mlg orlando when i realized i don't know the names of any norcal brawl players.

does norcal even have regular brawl tournaments?

also, i'd give brawl a try, but i'd wanna play someone who knows about the game too. if i played keith or anthony (neither of which are too happy to play it i assume) it would just be random attacks for the whole match.

I don't know any notable norcal players actually. NorCal doesn't even have brawl tournaments.

Also the next time we meet up at some smashfest we can play
not
smash.

norcal does play brawl, iirc zex still plays. i dont know whos the best lol

its just that no one in norcal is good on an national level

and adaias, if biglou can place that high, luigi probably has things he can do well. if that's possible, i wanna learn it cuz i like knowing every option

I always thought luigi was viable in brawl. . .somewhat as much as he is in melee, if not more so

I thought zex was a player in vegas. . .

and isnt DP and meep known nationwide in brawl?

Though I could be full of it on all 3 counts. . . .


I want to play melee w/ someone

The only thing I think Luigi can effectively pull off at that level is punishing hard with good SDI -> level 9 melee luigi nairs. He can't shield grab characters, has poor range, infinites, etc. I assume its more about people not knowing the match-up. Not like I've played a good luigi players though.

Well reflex has done well with pt before so...I don't know.

i'd hate that if it weren't for the straw hat and double DS action. edit: TWO pokewalker things... too good

brawl is a really legit game

just not as spectator friendly as melee

unless it's ally m2k, those guys are freaking beasts to watch

spenser, i made it to mixed bags finals

hehe, maybe i should whip out a cacturne of my own....
Cacturne is official server's mascot as in our gimmick. I remember scrub smogon complained about garchomp's broken ability of being hard to hit in sandstorm so we made up the unbeatable cacturne set:

Swords Dance
Sucker Punch
Focus Punch
Substitute

If you attack, you get hit by sucker punch. If you don't attack cacturne uses focus punch. Looks like you're ****ed either way.

Also I agree that brawl is a legit game. You can actually shield pressure in brawl with appropriate spacing which is why I love falco and G&W. Meta Knight's aerial speed is a bit too slow to be able to do it outside of aerial -> tornado in back for their shield and run away. Brawl does have it's spectator moments when people are last stock, high percent and are looking for a kill but they both play it safe. Actually...I don't watch melee matches below finals unless it's like a player of high caliber playing another good player.
