Slowz
Smash Rookie
How to begin...
Well, I suppose I must start by stating that, if this thread is in any way obtrusive to the conduct of the mods, or violates any rules, please, no hesitation in deleting/locking this thread. Whatever you gota' do.
Secondly, I never type like this in casual conversation. Ever.
Thirdly, I suck.
Well, now that that's outa' the way, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Travis, but I prefer Slow/Slowz better. It's very nice to meet all of you!
My experience with Smash and its community is extremely limited, mostly watching Project: M streams, Jcaesar, Gimpy for a short time, and VGBootcamp. My impressions on it is this: it is one of the most spirited fighting game communities out there; the hype over big plays is absolutely insane.
Now, all that experience in the community is from the Melee/P:M community, not so much Brawl, but I can assume they are roughly the same. Now we encounter the issue: why DON'T I have any experience in the community of Smash?
I live in Georgia. A very secluded area of Georgia. Rough luck for me, but moving on; I'm rambling way to much.
To put it bluntly, I'm a southern-bound lover of Smash who doesn't play it nearly as much as he should (PRACTICE) and would like to make, as the title states, a Newbie Introduction.
Now, I know mechanics are everything, but I might as well pick a character to stick to. Luckily, I have picked two I would definitely not get bored of to soon: Toon Link and Lucario. As of now, mostly Lucario. (really just poking at every character but these are two that peak my interest)
I play P:M on a Classic Controller Pro, which I can SWEAR isn't nearly as reliable as I thought before I bought it, but we'll get back to that. What I'm asking for from the General Discussion (and luc/tink mains pls) is a friendly hello, and a bit of advice.
I want to know if the Gamecube/Nintendo White Controller is worth investing into.
I want to know ways to improve myself. I've done digging and found old mechanics threads, but they're mostly geared toward players of Melee and/or Smash. I have played neither on a dedicated basis.
I want to know some appeals to the aforementioned maybe-mains, Lucario and Tink.
I'd like someone I could talk/smash with sometimes. Smash buddy, you know?
I'd like a hello from anyone who actually took the time to read this. No Tl;dr here.
That's about it. Thanks for reading!
