Just wondering if any of you guys some room for Smash in your New Years Resolution

My resolution is that I plan to be the Best C.Falcon player in NYC, and eventually the Atlantic North.

I have a very long way to go though and I hope that I can Get the amount of practice I need to reach this goal.

I Wanna take it to Apex 2016.

What About you guys?

Hmm... meet NAKAT at a tournament and winning first place in a tournament. Hopefully going to APEX one day too as well? I don't really have the money for out-of-city tournaments though ):

You may just have to win your Local tourneys and get enough cash to go out of city. Could be an option.
I would love to see an Olimar taking a tourney.

To get into the competitive scene? Nah, that'll never happen.

Something easier... 100%ing the game? Nope.

:4ness::4gaw::4olimar::4duckhunt::4pacman::4kirby:
Completing my Amiibo collection (if they even come out)? Close enough. I have Kirby already.

I might actually 100% do all challenges... on the 3ds. Screw the wii u version challenges. I already got 93 / 105 and the ones are easy to get but I'm too lazy to get to it like completing all star with all characters.

Yeah that's true... I actually didn't think of that haha. I was hoping to get a job at my school's cafeteria next year and saving up for a Wii U because I've been practicing on a 3DS. Yeah I only started playing Olimar today so maybe it's to soon to call myself a Olimar main but he's one of the characters I have enjoyed playing the most so far! :)

Try to improve some of my skills and see what I might be doing wrong against more professional players that I run into sometimes. (They cut my booty like grass... It makes me get kind of frustrated. XD)

Maybe try to do some more challenges and possibly get a Luigi Amiibo. (Not sure what I'd do with it besides try to make it as OP and impossible to beat as possible.)

My resolution is to actually learn from hopeless losses rather than just falling limp/selfdestructing/losing all sense of self-worth and going on a depressed spiral.

...it didn't even take me ten hours to completely blow that resolution.

Uh, to get good at the game. Everybody says Smash requires dedication; well I spent the day getting destroyed and boy am I exhausted. I just want to be able to stand up for myself in the game, and just continue getting better from there. I may also try to find some tourneys to go to, but I'll most likely just go to watch. Probably try and show up early for possible friendlies and advice.
Wish me luck :p

To play less smash and pay more attention to my family.

Definitely improve in general. I have some bad habits when it comes to competitive, such as being too predictable or easily getting punished. I need to learn how to be more patient and read others well.

I'm also hoping to enter online tournaments, since high school and the lack of a license is currently prohibiting me from really entering locals and whatnot. A laggy For Glory and CPUs are getting pretty tiring, yet that's all I have to work with for now. Hopefully when I get my license and I enter college, I can have an easier time finding and attending locals.

I have to start working on my patience and reads as well.

To spend less time in For Glory and more time in For Fun. I've been treating Smash more like a chore than a game I play to have good times and memories in.

Do a local tournament.

Find a competitive scene in my area (I live in a town of 2000).

  • Get a :4rob:amiibo (if it even comes out this year).
  • Learn how to consistently beat:4fox:,:4darkpit:, and:4yoshi:. (God knows that last one probably isn't gonna happen.)
  • Git gud at:4bowserjr:.
Hey, I'm a massive casual when it comes to Smash. I'm going easy here.

Ambitious but my biggest goal this year is to become one of the top smashers in the midwest/Chicago area. It probably won't happen in one year but at the very least I want to place in the top 3 at the midwest tournaments I plan to go to.

Actually go to a Smash4 tournament. Will probably have to wait until graduation to have time/money for that, though.

I'm already probably the best Mario in this state. So, extend that title I guess. Maybe the best Mario in the South or some **** like that. Who knows some good Marios down South?

I want to get tilts into my playstyle (been a massive casual for years and havn't had the need for tilts most of the time) and i want to get better at pac-man. Entering an online tourney would be nice to.
