Well I finally had my first tournament at old school onslaught yesterday in cincinnati Ohio. I was very pleased to how well I preformed but not how I placed per say. Not sure what it is yet something like 13th outta 30 something. I could have won a match that would have placed me in the somewhere in the top 10. It seemed to me that I really have a good handle on Samus as a character I just need more experience playing against the other people in the cast on a high level. I have only brawl experience when it comes to that and thats where I believe I suffered. I just didn't know how to escape a couple things correctly that got me killed really early. Pikachu's thunder is ridiculous. My match vs Shenanigans was so close all I needed was on hit for too long
. First game I got Hatz's Charizard down to last stock then he just turned up and beasted me. Once he started using nair against my missles the tides turn pretty dramatically; probably shoulda Zair'd more. Only person that really destroyed me was Hanky Panky's Peach...dear god that was not cool lol. I got in some nice SWD's and DSWD's in my matches though so I won in style points
. hahaha All in all it was fun and I just think that if I can get a lot of practice against better players and against a wide variety of characters then I will be do a lot better. That and I need to get that clutch factor going. Too many times I lost in matches where I had them down to one stock with me in the lead and I blew it.
