I went to a progressive dinner, with a dance party afterward. Yeah, I broke it down.
Ah. Okay. I definitely did feel like you weren't in top form this tournament, just from the few friendlies I had with you. I wanted to try your Fox!
Next time, at least give me some Peach/Falcon/Sheik practice pleez!
I'll try and play you some of these days.someone come practice with me or some shiz... I need to practice more often and everyone I play against these days don't go to tournaments
Aw ... I like fighting Falco.

Yea we just came to have a good time and ****. Also trying to help bring Cory to more tournaments and get him some practice/exposure.

yea grand finals was really good, and its been a while since chu beat me, but my competitive side is still wondering why i didnt win
good sh*t chu, its good that ur actually practicing melee again, if me u and azen all get good again then its done for everywhere else
redd dont give up on falco entirely, no reason to drop a char totally esp one as good as falco. your fox/marth are definitely your two best though and im pretty sure fox would give u the best chance against almost any player
greg wtf 4th after mass hiatus LOL. castle asap
mahone good ****, you definitely got better, and yea i did kinda ask cyrain for help/coaching in the rematch, hope you dont mind lol. i havent sat down and practiced fox vs jiggs in literally at least 5 years and cyrains a ****ing beast at the matchup
azen ur getting mad good too bad syphers bracket screwed u over LOL
richmond ur all sexy but i wanna see u guys go all out soon
also apologies to milkman and wenbo who i screwed over by losing to mahone early, course mahone might have beat them as well but sorry guys i did kinda **** up losers
edit: @greg me vs redd wasnt as close as some of those other matches but it was still a good set. me vs azen was really close till the last match, and the end of the 2nd match of me vs azen was insanely intense, i dont think we recorded that though

From the attendees, it seems like it would be difficult to choose the 5th to 8th seeds, and someone from the top 12 is pretty much guaranteed to be kicked down to losers pretty early, except I can't seem to imagine how Chillin and Mahone played that early. Overall, the top 12 seems correct, just in the wrong order, and Seb's anomaly. Also, Bones.

also props to chu for advancing his game without going the chaingrabbing route to do it. hes pioneered the char since day 1 and instead of just homofying his game hes actually advancing it through better fighting techniques, its impressive, good **** chu
TheCrimsonBlur
Smash Master
Yeah, but he really should learn some of that crazy **** Wobbles and Fly do. He'd be unstoppable.
Chu with handoff tricks? Its done. Its a wrap. The Melee community would never be the same.
chillindude829
Smash Master
i dunno man, it seems like theres a reason chu hardly ever chaingrabs anymore, and i think it has to do with the flow/momentum of his game. chaingrabbing interrupts it and forces him to slowly accumulate damage instead of reading the opponents defensive options and punishing with something a lot more devastating like he normally does
BigWenz
Smash Ace
maybe but it wouldn hurt to have it. I mean if he gets a grab near the edge, why try and do something and then have to edgeguard and possibly not get the kill when u can do the handoff and get a guranteed kill?
that being said, the other icies mains dont have **** on Chu's sopo game, **** is so clutch.

I felt like it was harder to play against Chu than the other IC players I've played because you can't just go into games with the mindset "okay, just don't get grabbed." I kept getting randomly destroyed by stuff because I kept expecting grabs where I feel like most IC players would have, but he didn't. Then the one time he does grab I am completely disoriented because I had just stopped expecting him to grab. lol
TheCrimsonBlur
Smash Master
I mean, whats more devastating than a zero-to-death chaingrab?
The way he plays now it feels like he has to make 30 reads a match rather than just 4 like Wobbles and Fly do. Hes hella good so he makes it work but when you see Wobbles get 5th at APEX and Fly get 5th at DGDTJ (beating Lucky and Hbox) though Chu seems to have superior neutral game/mindgames (at least he does to me), you gotta wonder how much better he would be if he could just use some of their tricks.
Cyrain

@ Chillin, I'll be going all out from now on. With Falco. At least for a while. If it doesn't work out then I'll be back to Fox with a brand new style. Either way, yeeee. Also, Chu's gameplay outside of chaingrabs/gimmicks is by far better than every other ICs. It's like not even close. Chu is still one of the scariest players in the community as far as I'm concerned.
And good **** to G-reg for randomly showing up and getting 4th. Yeeeeeeeee.

Thanks Chillin... I just feel like I need to put falco on the back burner for a bit. If I start practicing Fox dittos again, **** will be crazy. I'll give you a better set next time.
Chu is just ****ing good. Even though he grabbed me like 2-3 times the entire set, he doesn't even need it. I'm beyond impressed. I mean he was/has been a top player forever, but still.
SavEDGE is beast.

Eh, in a way it was nice, cuz it was like playing cyrain, and since cyrain was drunk/sandbagging the whole time, it was the only chance i got to play his style of fox lol....
I'm still gonna tell Justin i ***** you though, you're gonna have to beat me without him before i stop talking ****
Cyrain
Smash Ace
Savedge is silly. xD I had been talking him up, but he got wasted and then got ***** bahahahaha. Oh well. All the top players in the region know how secretly **** he is =P
@ Mahone, my drunk melee is pretty good mangz. We shoulda played. Next time, though, we'll have that MM for realz and I won't sandbag at all.
Also...Coaching someone vs. jiggs is way more fun than actually playing the matchup lol

yea to be fair mahone your first set vs me did include a sd at 0 by me at the very beginning of the brinstar match, had a pretty big influence on the match i'd say. i was still pretty likely to beat you without cyrains coaching
MinQ

What? There was coaching? I thought that was against the rules...
Bones0

I called my mom before I played Chillin and she wished me good luck. Does that constitute coaching?
rpgfighter

Well was he coached DURING the match or what? Before the match is fair game imo.

I just thought it was sort of lame....
I 2 stocked you that match at low-mid percent....
Whatever man, you could just be honest and say that you needed cyrain's help to beat me, and that you will beat me legit next time.... or you could continue lying to yourself, you're call.

LMAO why are u such a **** on the boards
or, u could stop trying to convince urself that u deserved to beat me and that the only reason u stood a chance in the first one was me not banning brinstar. ur call

Haha kinda figured you were kidding XD That would be pretty weird though lol "Hey mom! I'm getting nervous about this next match and I'm not sure how I'll do!" Mom: "It's okay honey, remember your tactics for facing *insert character here* and play plenty of mindgames. Good luck honey, I love you! WOMBO COMBO!" Wut?
Cyrain

Damn, chillin and mahone going at it. Sounds like a MM opportunity. I hope it didn't really bother you that much. I don't really see the issue with someone coaching, though Sypher did mention a tournament rule against it. I don't know if that's true and if it is, then my bad.
