Just like Novice said, that post really deserved a rant.
On my behalf, make fun of me all you want.. (as I agree with you) Definetely not the best I've played...many errors on my part, many mistakes, that I didn't mean at all... (F-throw, Bthrow, bad parries lol many things), but we all play bad.. either way i'm not gonna john or make up anything why I played, the way I did... Not in my persona... Many of your videos, I wonder what you're doing, myself...and as you say all the time.. (I wasn't playing my best, I dropped combos, edgeguards etc) you say these things in all of your videos) whether it's true or not, serves no "real" purpose.. You say them for every video you release... If i played the way I wanted in every video I made/released... or heck if any PLAYER played the way they played perfectly, we'd prolly have some scary looking stuff... Sadly, playing perfectly the way we want each game, is just not going to happen (we all should know this)
Please stop comparing us, I'm not saying that my vids are better to watch if you want to learn or anything like that. I just said that the very few sets you lose all of them except for this one and because of the large amounts of bad play etc in this and your other sets you can honestly not learn much...
This is why you saying that I took everything from you is hilarious, since I don't play anywhere like how you did in that video or like your other tournament set videos and you never do informative posts or critique or anything like that.
Either way the comparisons between, us, can't be compared either.. Your version of Melee, Yoshi has options, situations, that i'll never be able to even dream of.. just because of version differences..
In theory your videos BETTER be better than mine.. you have a better character for your version of the game... and will have opportunities that i'll never even get to fathom.
The falco matchup is barely changed at all fyi (every fundamental aspect is identical except that Yoshi lives a little longer)... I'm playing NTSC some nowadays to prepare for Apex and I can honestly say that the spacies+marth+CF+puff don't really change at all in how they are played, you just have to try a tiny bit harder just like Fox has to in PAL. The things that change are just the results of you getting hit being worse at times, it doesn't allow Yoshi for any new magical option, his combos, parries, spacing and baiting game is more or less identical.
If you honestly thing that I'm shallow enough to simply take the result of the match as proof then you're dead wrong.
and overall, as I said, I really don't care how we compare.
you felt it was "always the best options" because I can just go back to my thread, and find post(s) of what you thought i did was bad/unsmart, and I see now, you're USING these same things, that you were once criticizing me for...
I would be happy if you could search those up, because I'd like to hear the disadvantages of what I do. Also, I never said I knew what was the best from the start, and I obviously still don't know everything there is to know about Yoshi.
I have no shame in admitting that I have stated that I didn't like X thing used by Y character at the time but that I later changed my mind
.
At the end of the day, idc if you hate me, like me, learned/didn't learn from me. Honestly it doesn't matter... I still have the results at a national.. if you feel you're beyond my abilities like you claim you are... then do what I had to do, and prove it.. Get similar/better results than I did with Yoshi (NTSC), and I'll understand where you come from...
until you do, you have no right (technically) to say that I'm not a good representative/inspiration for Yoshi
Sorry, but this is just plain ridiculous. This is so stereotype american that I almost wanna be serious with my american hate for once.
HOW can you think that the only thing that is relevant is how you do at pools in ONE tournament, that happened almost a year ago. You didn't defeat ANYONE who was notable at the time and you barely made it out with bottom seed and went 0-2 in bracket, and this is when facing people with zero Yoshi experience.
Except for Pound 5, where are your results? Afaik the only thing you got is placing in the bottom of tiny AZ locals, going 0-2 in bracket while I have won 3 regionals back to back since I started maining him.
Yet it is my duty to "PROVE" myself, even though
you dont even play Yoshi anymore.
I don't wanna be this blunt and mean but when you act like the ONLY THING THAT MATTERS is a couple of pool wins I cannot honestly say that you deserve any better.
Oh, and I never said that you weren't a good "representative/inspiration" for Yoshi/low tiers/whatever, I just said that you weren't one from me. Your importance in the Yoshi/Smash scene is undeniable, I'm not saying anything about that, You're just basically saying:
"oh hey you play falco, YOUR INSPIRATION COMES FROM THE GREAT DASHIZWIZ AND YOU CANNOT SAY ANYTHING UNLESS YOU PERFORM BETTER THEN HIM"
Again, I'm not trying to put you down or to cause you any harm, I have no reason to.
However, I don't like it when you go around and imply that NTSC nationals is the only thing that matters and that I've stolen everything I do from you.
I'm gonna reply to the other posts later, I just wanted to post this so that I can get flamed at before the constructive talk begins.
EDIT: Yes, I'm obviously a ****ing douche online. Stating that won't do ****, I am well aware and I can promise you, that I'm much nicer in real life. I just find spending ****loads of time sugar coating and to keep repeating common sense things that everyone agrees with a waste of time and it is done all the time here (Hi Umbreon)
I have high hopes for him..
