That's not an excuse. Do you guys live in French Canada a.k.a. Quebec? :smash:

Random fact: I did. :smirk:

I feel exactly the same lol. Wario's -2s don't really show as -2s until top level. At high/mid level his -2s are more around 0/-1. :happysheep:
What top Warios other than Reflex actually use him in -2 MUs? :confused: How many of them actually win their sets with him? Ftr, Reflex once said on here that he actually feels like Wario:DDD is actually a -3 and that it is easier for DDD than Wolf:DDD. 4GOD, Coney, and Seagull came on here and stated otherwise, though. Still, the point is made. DDD is one -2 you don't really see Warios just 'getting away' with. I feel like even 'solid' pocket DDDs could really trouble/beat good Warios, especially since top-level pockets are usually still pretty darn good (see: ESAM's and Nairo's DKs, every top-level player's MK, Dabuz's Pit, Jbandrew's Luigi, NinjaLink's BUNCH of chars, etc). :smash:

1st off: thank you for the compliment : )
2nd: for your wario players beating ddd's

I feel that Reflex is one of the most pessimistic persons when it comes to the D3 vs Wario MU, with Waymas being on the opposite side of the spectrum. The only top level Wario that uses other characters in MUs is Abadango, and he still tries to use Wario at first for MK, Marth, etc. from what I've seen on youtube. Most of the high level Warios (Croi, Jnig, etc.) also use Wario in the -2 MUs. Good pocket D3s are not very common, but people who try to pull him out of their ass to try and gay Wario more often lose than not. (e.g. Waymas vs Kingtoon, Reflex and myself vs Seagull). When a Wario loses to a D3, it's usually the main of the player.

Do not list Dabuz's pit when considering top level player's high level pockets. Jband's Luigi is not a pocket, it's one of his mains iirc. :happysheep:

Who do you main again, Blacktwins? :confused:

What the heck? Kingtoon's not a "good DDD". The dude's only "good" character is TL. HIs DDD's not even a pocket char. It just.....kinda sucks. Btw, I meant how many Warios win their entire sets going Wario vs only chars that -2 them. In KT's set against Waymas, he went TL half the time, which is not nearly as bad of a MU for Wario. All of those things kinda invalidate that set as evidence. Didn't see the second vid, though...

Edit: The man also played really 'scared' for the entire match, which I guess was a trait carried over from his TL habits. He passed up really open and obvious grab opportunities. Heck, he b-rolled away from a shielding Wario. That's not proof of anything. A somewhat competent pocket DDD will at least try to grab at everything he can't bair. :smash:

Edit 2: Loooolz! He even went for dthrow > ftilt (which he missed) over the grab-release. Even the worst actual DDD in that MU knows about the free damage and is good enough at slamming the C-stick to actually do it. :facepalm:

The 2nd video was Gluttony beating Atomsk in a 3/5 or 4/7 money match. There are next to no pocket D3s that are capable of beating Warios outside of like Ally who have actually bothered to play him instead of MK. Most players just use pocket/secondary MKs to beat Wario. :happysheep:

^

@gluttony vs atomsk is interesting. Shows how the match up goes if they both play aggressively. Neither have to play that way though, and a patient ddd is sounds broken vs wario....

A patient D3 can be very, very frustrating to fight. Bike and tire stuff can make it easier to approach through depending on the stage. :happysheep:

Kingtoon didn't even try to "gay" Wario, though. He just sucked really hard.

For example, he grabbed Wario RIGHT at the ledge. Obviously, no dthrow follow-up was possible. This is the optimal time to GR Wario into something "gay". What did KT do? He tried to go for some dthrow > dair offstage jank which just failed miserably. :facepalm:

well how can he not be top tier when his only disadvantageous MUs are MK, Snake, and maybe ROB? He beats a majority of the cast.
Marth loses to DDD. I don't think anyone really questions this.

Dude, Bubba. Nobody is arguing that KT didn't do bad. Him doing bad was the whole point of me listing him as an example of a failed attempt to try to beat Wario with a pocket.
The only person who called D3's KT good was BT.:happysheep:

+ ddd like bubba said

Marth has a really good match up spread

Waymas did this to me (snake vs wario) on the smashville platform. NEVER letting wario take me there again. It was so lame xD

KT actually uses D3 a lot for the Wario MU. It's not an MU he's never played at all. I do think he played worse that match than he should've. :happysheep:

Marth loses to Snake? I don't know what you base this on but Marth loses to MK, to ICs, to DDD and to ROB. The best character he wins against is Wario, which I think isn't anyting special considering Wario himself doesn't really beat any top or high tier character. Wario and TL are the only "official" top/high tier characters Marth has an advantage against. In addition to that he has pretty even to slightly disadvantaged records against Kirby, Pit and Sonic so it's gonna be hard to claim that he beats the majority of the cast, let alone to the same extent Olimar or Falco do. Marth is a very solid character, who is never a truly bad choice in any matchup and he can make it very far in the hands of a genius player like Mikeneko. But I don't think he can legitimately be called a "top tier" character, unless you're going to call MK, IC and whomever else you believe to be better than Marth "super top tier" or something like that. Marth is a solid high tier character.

Guuuuuuuyyyys, in the 1st Atomsk vs Gluttony match, Atomsk missed the very first CG. He didn't even get one rep off. Then the next time he grabbed him, he totally missed the GR. He went for fair when usmash is perfectly fine and easy and requires absolutely NO timing at all. Then he upB'd on-stage for no reason. That got farted on, causing him to lose his first stock. Come on, he was clearly playing extremely sloppily. :( Still watching, though. Just thought I'd mention that.

He definitely doesn't lose to ICs. I wrote about this earlier in the thread. it's an even MU. Marth's air camping is really safe vs ICs. but he could mess up and that's what reduces it to even.

Pierce could explain why DDD is easy to fight. he has a few good posts on this. CJ or Shaya or someone, help. lol. I would say it's mostly because of the juggling.

Snake I think is disadvantageous from experience. but... maybe it's just the one character I have a LOT of trouble against.

There should be an orgasm smiley on SWF. :awesome:

In each match that Atomsk lost, he missed no less than two (usually more) GRs that didn't involve the SV plat, most of them at kill %'s. Those GRs are mad easy, too. Was he half-asleep or something? :smash:

Fatal beat Nairo a few months ago in a 40:60 MU but he's not a top player?
Let the call-outs begin. Any player who gets taken by me to last-stock, high %'s while playing his main (in an even MU, no less) does not deserve to call himself a top-level player. This is one of those Minty-level call-outs. :troll: The funny thing is that I actually considered Fatal to be a top-level player a short while ago. Then I remembered that incident and changed my mind. Fatal also had/lost close games with my Oli main friend, DarkPkmn, and John12346. Yeah, he's not top-level, lolz! :p

Ya havok went mainly MK at Apex. Most of his wins were with MK too. He's not really a snake main :happysheep:


And ya Quest, none of us top players. We have lives + get forced to play against each other a nationals (because NJ is high when they seed brackets). Fatal used to be a top doubles player back in the day with his top 4 placings at nationals but in singles he caps out around 7th or 5th at his best. Snake just isn't a character that can win a a tourney solo mained unless he gets a bracket in which he plays against that person's best MUs until the end and then rides the momentum to win GFs. Look at salem he played charcters in which he was strong in the MU against and started riding the momentum at the end. ZSS is still a mid/high tier gimmicky character, but if she doesnt play against Falcos, ICs or any of Salem's personal bad MUs then winning apex does seem like a possibility.
I started to really like this post.....until I got to the latter half of it. :ohwell:

Who said it was funny? :p Why did you assume that it was anything other than corroboration of the fact that The King rules all. :smirk:

I actually think PS2 is totally okay. Until PS1 gets banned I say let it be there. I think it's one of the few occasions where a stage will come in to the ruleset from originally being out of it. That's a pretty momentous occasion, in my eyes at least.
PS2 is more radical than PS1. You will never be able to argue otherwise. PS2 brings in physics changes and increased trip rates while PS1 does not. You can say that PS2 shouldn't be legal if PS1 isn't legal, but you can't state the converse. :smash:

PS2 is fine.

Quest, by your own definition of 'top player' you said that a top player consistently performs very well. I already pointed out why this isn't the case with Fatal and the fact that you decide to use that definition then basically say "Yo man wtf Fatal beat Nairo once how the **** is he not a top player" is absurd.

'real life' tournies I think.

What's wrong with PS2? I don't see why physics changes make it banworthy, and the 1% increase on tripping on the ice transformation is negligible (tripping on the side platforms of the 2nd transformation of Frigate is a much bigger problem). Sure, it can promote camping in the same way PS1 does but I think the stage does more good than harm.
