I'll MM your fox the next time we play andre, even though I agree with you lol
Yeah it's an impossible match up if you approach vertically, but knowing the way I play I still approach Nick's zelda horizontally and try to brute force my way through. It's more fun but sometimes I get a taste of **** from fair

Kirby v Fox is like playing with a jigglypuff with bad grabs and no rest...and no gimps and.... yeah good luck winning that as kirby.

SNSD video time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN5v61brFKk

should have linked it back when it got leaked but whatever. TL.net gets me all those kpop leaks and links. I didn't even know it was actually in Japanese until I paid close attention...their korean accent is that bad

Hey spenser I'll MM you. Kirby ditto for $1 (actually I changed my mind, my dignity is worth maybe just a tiny bit more than $1)

I disagree. I think the only reason it's impossible is because fox can laser camp her and force her to approach. Since she's slow and doesn't have good approach options he can then punish her in a variety of different ways by overwhelming her with speed.

yeah that works too, actually even better than vertical approaches. I forgot about laser camping.

WOW NESTEA...those games with SC were so godly. The last game was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo close. I honestly thought he would lose but he managed to pull through. Now time for another disappointing final

POWERSHIELD. Actually I don't know either, but ganon's weight would be his saving grace here. Give young link the DOUBLE DIPPER and he's DONE.

I don't actually know how that match-up goes, never seen it happen.

It's cool until young link camps the balls off of ganon. Powershielding his projectiles are kind of useless because young link has an auto powershield if he just stands...not to mention bombs and boomerangs can shield poke.

Yeah even though it's old school, watch aniki vs Ken. Link/young link can camp the balls off of any not super fast non projectile user

ylink vs marth is actually a very dynamic matchup that i have a lot of exp in

good use of shield and fair though, i think gives marth the edge 60 40

edge guarding ylink can be hard but if u do it well (dtilt, fsmash, counter) ylink will die quickly. however ylink can play keepaway so well, marth has trouble getting in. marth TAPS on smaller stages, its about even on dreamland

Does marth's nair work well against an anticipated ylink chain recovery or whatever it's called? It works well with fox and other sex kick users, but I've never played that match up as marth

against chain recovery u generally wanna stay on the stage, though i guess i can see more risky things of marth dropping down and catching it. however, if link/ylink scouts that, they can just upB and hit u. it's best just to stay on stage or edge hog. marth's corner game is too good anyway

Alright, yeah. Marth's nair doesn't last long enough and it does seem better to play it safe with marth's godly ledge options.

wow I forgot I had 69% on my ignore list so I wasnt even able to peek at his posts once in a while anymore. Smashboards removed that notice now right? Well he's off my list for now

ledgeguarding link (or i guess ylink also?) is pretty hard for marth if the link is good with his options. if you are coming from high, cover your path with a bomb, and if you are coming from low, either sweet spot the ledge with a hook shot, or pseudo sweet spot it under, so that the hookshot 'hop' takes you right to the edge. can also ledge hop bomb throw as well; a lot of this is coming from my link exp but also a bit from playing 69/100.

We played mvc3 at my house all day today. RJ's pretty good (beat the rest of us easily), but I wonder if he'd be able to beat Garlen. Idk why but I get the feeling that Garlen is actually better.

i dont even hAVE the game guys LOL!

however i'm still theorycrafting my thrown-together-team of cute girls. i'm thinking of starting x-23 and gonna try to figure out ways of doing dhc trick in to hsien ko gold armor.

but yeah, rj is currently better thna me so he'd be a better challenge for garlen right now.

when i played him he won about 70% of matches. that doom is good, spencer is pretty good.... but it aint SPENSER.

i was just talking about how me, su, preet, and rj played yesterday. I've actually played with RJ every other day since he got back (last sunday). RJ's actually switched up his team and learned a few more godly combos since you played him andre. You're really good for not having the game. Of course, I don't either hence why I suck lol.

RJ's leaving next weekend though. We'll both try to go over to your house sometime this week keith.
