I timed out Oro?!'s samus on dreamland a couple days ago. It was really dumb and i almost lost because I really wanted the timeout winI want to see fox camp samus. I've never seen that before. no one risks trying to tilt missiles for ages while doing run away laser in between.
i just reflect them. samus's jump/fall speed are too ****ty to do anything about it.I want to see fox camp samus. I've never seen that before. no one risks trying to tilt missiles for ages while doing run away laser in between.
I'm just glad that you said it.you just dash dance into drill or grab when she can CC, and after she can't CC you nair.
uthrow puts samus above you which is the position she hates to be in: she's in the air, and she's above a fast character with good moves that hit above him. i don't understand how people are so caught up on true combos and fail to realize when positional advantage is so absurdly in your favor that it's essentially a combo, just one you have to wait for.
laser when you're in a good position to, but don't do it stupidly to where you get hit by missiles.
Marth's juggles on Peach come to mind.I'm just glad that you said it.
I think that's a concept only Brawl players understand, and not enough Melee players look into.i don't understand how people are so caught up on true combos and fail to realize when positional advantage is so absurdly in your favor that it's essentially a combo, just one you have to wait for.
while i agree with this, i feel like people arguing that "you should just camp/wait/be patient" are going against the primary reason lots of us are interested in this game in the first place.I think that's a concept only Brawl players understand, and not enough Melee players look into.
That's all fine, but some of us are trying to get better. On top of that, his post was referring to positional advantage. Something that even the ballsiest of players (Mango, darkrain, Shiz) all abuse very well. Taking advantage of position is a technique that can be applied to all playstyles, not just campy ones.while i agree with this, i feel like people arguing that "you should just camp/wait/be patient" are going against the primary reason lots of us are interested in this game in the first place.
mango would say that's "playin like a fu kn fa ggot" and i'm in agreement with this statement. part of the reason why we all like and love the feel of melee bros is because it provides us with a very special thing that no other fighting game does - it lets us play the game the way we want. The reason I initially picked Smash Bros over traditional 2d fighters is because it felt good. It provided me with a sense of freedom of movement that no other game provided. I wasn't limited to sticking to an x-axis with set jump distances. I could go where I wanted, when I wanted, and how I wanted. Throwing combat into the mix only adds to a unique playstyle.
Of course, as I improved I learned that movement isn't as free or as safe since you have to respect your opponent, but the feel is still there. The "correct" answer may to be carefully go for single hits and maintain a very tight spacing game, but you don't absolutely have to. You can play the game the way you want since you are unfettered by rules of movement (outside of character limitation and matchup etc). It's on you to find ways to beat your opponent's way of playing. Some people will adhere to the rules their opponent has laid down while others will man the **** up and get the **** in there and fight a *****
This is why I like Melee.
i wanted to use that post i typed up @-@ and overlooked what he was talking aboutThat's all fine, but some of us are trying to get better.
