Ness Video Thread: under new management

[Jtails]

lol oh dear. how testy we new yorkers can get eh ^_^

 

[thesage]

New Yorkers are testy cuz the air quality there is so bad. I was there last summer and I could barely breathe.

WTF LRN2BREATHE NUBS

 

[Levitas]

it's not ref's fault nobody knows about deoderant and soap in new york.

That said, I'll update the first post sometime (probably tomorrow during the day)

 

[xoxokev]

good match, DK was smart with the charged dsmash on the first stock...
ref is a good player, but it looked like he was playing very aggressively... and that might have been the reason why he lost
anyway, my suggestion is more fair spam (when DK isn't bair spamming... i'm not sure who has priority on those moves), and more dash grabs...

good rising aerials -> dair

 

[Ref]

I don't normally PKT2 that much but I had to take my chances. I went old school Up B.

 

[Jtails]

hey lev I know about soap and deoderant! that is a statist statement!!

also any comments on the vid i posted? tips?
It was doubles but in any case input would be cool.

 

[Ref]

You played well in that video Jtails, that counter stage spike really messed things up for you, always try to tech that.

Something for all you NEss players out there (Me as Ness vs. Dekar as Diddy)

 

[xoxokev]

lol ZMan, that sucks.

you know, i think you could have just held right on the control stick instead of PKT, and you would have "clicked" onto the ledge... but since you didn't know that thing was coming up, PKT was an option... lol thats sucky

p.s. this is my 100th post

 

[thesage]

That's why I ban that stage lol.

 

[Ref]

I started banning that stage too... More recently.

 

[Uffe]

^^^ I did the same, you two. If you're near that wall, your PK Thunder gets swallowed. If you do happen to use it, you'll either get that stupid thing to eat your PK Thunder or you'll just bump into the wall. It's almost pointless to even recover on that stage.

Learn to recover lower. That's probably the only thing that will save you on that stage. Stupid unexplained recovery shenanigans.

Good match, especially how you lasted at the end. Just learn to tech everything when you get hit. It will save you from counters and more.

Don't roll so much.

@ JTails vid:

it was a good effort... there were so many things happening at once. for some reason, i think Lucas does a little bit better in teams just because his fsmash is a lot faster, and more useful in those kinds of situations

 

[ZMan]

At the time I was thinking of picking Ness up competitvly, but afterthat match I decided not to. I haven't ruled out the option entirely though.

I hate Sakurai.

 

[Gaussis]

Um, just learn to recover. Seriously, it pays off to learn your weaknesses and deal with them. For that stage, you really need to think twice because using PKT to recover is literally spelling your doom. Use it as your last resort.

Just learn what PKT can do.

 

[ZMan]

My Ness is way better than that. He's probably at tourny level. I just wanted to show that Sakurai, the Whimsical Support Ghost, and God all hate me and they show that hatred through a video game.

I can chage! Really I can!

 

[Gaussis]

I'm sure God doesn't hate you. Not sure about the ghost or Sakurai for that matter.

 

[Ref]

That happened twice in a tourney once to a Lucas player and once to me.

 

[thesage]

Happened to me three times in one tourney. I ban it against everybody except Diddy cuz he's gay on FD (and the platform on Yoshi's kinda screws him).

 

[gantrain05]

isn't it common sense to always always always, ban final D if your playing a Diddy, thats like the most broken character/stage combo ever, i hate it, i think out of like the 200 times i've played that matchup i might have won 10 games, all with olimar by being even gayer than diddy, and spamming side b twice as fast as he could throw nanners, and then abusing my pivot grab lol. so i've concluded the only way to actually beat diddy is to be gayer than he is.

 

[Jtails]

The shy guys could be annoying for ness on yoshi's.

and yea FD + Diddy = ownage

 

[ZMan]

Ya the shy guys can be quite the douche bags. During July some Ness user got gimped due to the Shy Guys. Same with the balloon on Smashville.

 

[EdreesesPieces]

BLAH. That's happened to me so many times the balloon isn't as bad. Usually when you are that high, you can just move yourself forward and grab the ledge.

 

[Levitas]

It was waaaay worse back in melee. shy guys are the natural enemy of any respectable ness, so we should light them all on fire.

 

[thesage]

Don't forget the cloud (Randall?). That's hurt my recover more times than it has saved it.

 

[Earthbound360]

Ugh, the first time that little red demon bubble of Smashville killed me, I was pretty much in denial. I didnt think it really happened

 

[Ref]

Yea I hate the balloon more than those shy guys.

 

[toasty]

My (shoddy) Ness in a friendly. There's some okay stuff in there, just wish I was better with him in Brawl ;__;

pretty good stuff... fun match... i liked the PKT2 on his second stock, and the yo yo stake spike (even tho it didnt kill) at the end

i was surprised the sweetspotted bat didnt kill that time when you spawned

 

[Uffe]

That's a really cool Ness. I want to play you now. Well, not right away.

 

[Gaussis]

Not bad. If you feel your Ness could improve, just keep playing him. I see potential there.

 

[toasty]

yeah, anyone who knew me on the Melee boards knows I love Ness...but not so much in Brawl I've hardly ever used him, to tell you the truth >_> thanks for the compliments though. Oh and to clarify, my lack of use with him has nothing to do with my preference for Lucas, like I originally thought. It's mostly because I main Ness in Melee and playing him in both games messes me up a lot >_<

Sorry for the LQ... -.- have to stand+record..... with my camera D:

[xoxokev]

Nice vid. I'm a fan of utilts, good job... but sucky SD on the first stock

 

[MALCORE]

yeah, i was pretty antsy while playing because i was so close to being put out. looking back i can pick out all my mistakes.
i ended up winning this tournament though and i think this is my only game as ness. i used DDD primarily and i couple others for countering.

 

[EdreesesPieces]

here's a tournament vid of me versus lee puff (game and watch)

http://www.getyourtournament.com/multimedia/2008/11/ucla-monthly-vii-edrees-vs-leepuff_23.html

this video demonstrates why game and watch can get severely punished by death for trying to use his bucket versus pk thunder and why pk thunder is great against and gamf and watch. if you wait for the right height you can pk thunder him. if you see him bucket turn the pk thunder into the groudn and grab him. graba bove 95% = death probably. bucket lag (because he'll land using the bucket, giving an additional landing lag) so much that you have enough time. just watch the vid.
