Ha it was a joke. I don't mind playing Sheik much anymore after Pound 5. There's just no doubt how much easier the character's punishes and combos are to learn than anyone else. Also, the grabs gg

Whatever, bro. I have to deal with way gayer matchups as ICs. Do you have any idea how frustrating the Luigi matchup is? Literally, a 3 year old could learn the 2 things you have to do in the matchup and go even with me.

Seriously, though, Peach is more annoying for me than Sheik could possibly be for you.

Just play Fox it solves all your problems until you realize how hard he is
Fox is a lot of fun to be technical with though
Or attempt to I guess ...

Haha Joe
Falcon vs Sheik isn't like a 20-80 matchup or something

No, but I'm fully capable of beating Sheiks when I'm playing well. I've taken Plank to game three like three times now. It's stage dependent and it depends how each player is playing. Peach just utterly ****s the **** out of ICs so pick another character. Your Marth is fully capable of beating Peaches ESPECIALLY ones that aren't top level.

Fox is easy, seriously. There's lots of human error involved with using a highly technical character like that, but the thing is Fox is so good that even IF you make dozens of mistakes you can still easily win. When you mess up with a character like Falcon, it is always going to hurt. Fox has a ton of options at any given moment so he can compensate for the mistakes. It's pretty stupid. Still my favorite matchup though LOL

wat chu tryin to say joe, that my luigi is that bad? lolol jk i know my luigi is bad. that match up cant be in icies favor if my luigi which knows no match ups can go even wit ur climbers lol.

On the real though, as gay as peach vs icies is, i dont think theirs anything worse then m2k's sheik vs falcon, cause that **** is like impossible, unless ur Hax lls.

But seriously joe u just need to train a secondary for peach. Why not ur sheik? Dthrow Slap Chop all day.

That's not the best argument though. M2K's Sheik destroys Falcon because it's M2K, and he's just better than the Falcon. That's not the matchup so much as M2K.

You wouldn't say that because M2K ***** top Fox players with his Marth that the Marth-Fox matchup is 70-30 Marth would you?

A matchup is bad when players of the same skill dominate each other one way or the other (i.e., when one player has a fighting chance against more skilled player, which is the case in the ICs vs Peach matchup).

70-30 on FD lolol. my whole post really wasnt serious, i was just saying i dont think ive seen anything worse than what m2k did to darkrain.

honestly i feel sheik falcon is still gay as all hell, its just not as bad as it used to be.

also u still didn answer my question of why no sheik vs peach?

its only gay as hell when the shieik plays defensively, which m2k is the master of. aggressive sheiks get poo'd on by falcon.... its just the bair and needle spam that falcon cant get through, tilts, etc.. when falcon is forced to approach its a disadvantage.

and i think we can all agree that hax is just really good, definitely good enough to take a set from a brawl-playing m2k

Bair and needle spam? I don't think those are the things that kill Falcon
At the very least it's not needle spam, that ain't Falco and needles are mostly certainly not nearly as good as lasers haha

epsilon, were you recording on your setup at all, or were the cables just plugged in?

anyways, my main question is whether or not some of the doubles between me, eric, and crimson were recorded

Friendlies, right? Yeah, I've got a few videos

There's so many files because I was doing some testing during the friendlies. Recording from GameStop GameCube cables is a little bit different than recording from regular Wii s-video cables. GameStop cables suck
