foy focus on a main and trust me u will get way better

and dont make it kirby/bowser, u won't get anywhere (unless u want.... i guess)

top 8 characters preferably, or top 11, take ur pick
fox falco sheik falco peach falcon puff ic's (samus doc ganon)

tourny viable, only the top 7 win tournys, ic's can definitely pull second or 3rd at majors though

mad respect if u main ic's :) do it son

if u are an EFFING BEAST like taj and germ maybe you can do it, but those guys are one in a thousand

^ agreed
I also realized afer playing with narf, foy, and moon, that main-ing a character lets you do things and understand your character/matchup moreso than people who second/third that character can. Being a better overall player simply doesnt come close to making up for not having the same main.
So yeah, pick a character, foy, in this childrens' sumo game, and pwn (who uses that word anymore)
EDIT: O yeah, btw andre, saying that only top 7 win tourneys. . . you know that a roy took one down? In antioch, final match on corneria, son! it was pretty F'in epic.

pac won by a landslide.. but i already knew it would happen!

cotto was way too slow. ive seen all his fights and he doesnt match pac's speed. as shown in tonights fight.
Well, thanks jr! I was TRYING to keep it a surprise. now you went and blew it!! :,( . . .

Yeah Andre. MacD did well. I heard some rumors about MacD getting ranked soon.

I liked the matches for zhu, SS, and lucky. Mango almost got DQ'ed for going out to by pizza right before GFs haha. The mango matches weren't anything amazing to watch, though.

Axe's pikachu is AMAZING, gettin off on lovage in crew battles

I'd like to play macd some day soon. Been playing monopoly with shoddy battle people like Colin and some other friends. Fun stuff.

Man I'm so slow at figuring things out. I looked at how mango played and it's all about getting good position on the stage (platforms)

ahhhhh ****

analytical thinking can only get u so far!!!!!!!! u need the intuition and instinct to **** in a true battle!

there needs to be a balance of the two ways of thinking

sometimes i seriously start ****** 5x harder when i stop thinking

i did this in my set vs bizzarro flame

i definitely was playing unsafe and dumb with falco sometimes in that set, but i knew i was gonna win so i went autopilot and just did what i knew what i was gonna do lol

confidence can do that

I usually play on autopilot when I play melee unless it's for tech chases. But intuition is good sometimes for a game like melee. I'm going to take into account stage positioning when I play melee now. Need to reach that "good" level of playing eventually.

I need more match-up experience with floaties

actually. i thought this was my problem. that i my auto-pilot was garbage lol.
now i realize that analytical thinking IS all you need.
i just need to learn how to do it faster so i'm always on the ball.
i have been improving my auto-pilot on accident by spacing better and reacting faster.
I'm learning how to do things RIGHT.

get at me.
lmao nice

wb kenny! I miss the old avatar. . . =,(

I actually dont know how the peach IC matchup would even look like, tactically. Is peach really dependent on turnips in order to offset popo n nana? Does losing nana change the tide a much as it does for other matchups?

I play on autopilot 95% of the time, and my autopilot is complete ****. I rarely actually focus and put thought into playing, but when I do I can be pretty decent.

Oh, and good **** MacD

I DO remember everything, including your STAI-EL! mindgames!!
MShake, winner of the antioch grand mellee championship! beat foy in a roy vs bowser grand final!!! Put that one in the record books! RDY 2 HYPE UP 4 AGMC2? do it, son! maybe you'll make money this time for getting first. HAHA

and I def need focus to play, I can autopilot against climbers and all other chars under me in the tier list, it seems, but putting it on for everyone above just gets me whOOOOped. . . and gimped, and molested, and sodomized. . . .

. . . . =(

never player forward, and pika is freaking hard, so are foxes and stuff, though i lose to random jiggs :( i hate that match up but there is no reason for me to suck at it as much as i do

and thanks guys, i'll be reppin modesto all the way
