Tomato
Smash Journeyman
Hey guys, my name's Dan (otherwise known as Tomato, an internet name I've been using since I was 8 and never really got around to changing and use out of habit now) and I'm from Long Island, NY.
I've been playing as Ness since the Smash 64 days, although I never really delved into competitive play. And as time goes on and technology advances, and being that I've been playing a video game for 2/3 of my life make me think it's time I tried competitive Smash.
However, my concept of competitive Smash is foggy. I never really played with anyone outside of my friends or family, and really never used any particular strategy or set of moves. I always just felt the match out and countered whatever my opponent was doing. So on a casual level, I like to think I'm good. But casual good probably doesn't translate to competitive good.
So I'm here to ask what is a good way to practice and compete in the competitive sphere of Smash, since I find it pretty interesting, and would like to rep a character like Ness, who goes unseen it would appear for the most part.
As a side note, besides Ness, I was big on Luigi, Ice Climbers & Young Link in Melee, and in Brawl I also like to use Yoshi, Diddy, Kirby, Pit & Luigi.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
