maybe if we did that, it would be a good idea to start from ROB's disadvantages in matchups, and then work our way up.

In reality, it is impossible to reach a characters full potential. But we can still try :p
This.

And besides, we have plenty of time to build R.O.B.'s metagame. If we make the rankings, it'll encourage others to do better, and in the process of getting better we can help build our metagame. ^_^

I'll believe it when I see it, because the Social thread was supposed to bring some life back to the ROB boards and it did- and then distracted them from getting anything done.

=( 3:30. We weren't even done with LOW TIER DOUBLES by 3:30. Keep in mind that we still had low tier singles just "starting," regular doubles, and regular singles to go... and there were at least like 30 people in low tier singles..

..Yea.

I pulled off a beautiful Fast-falled fair to side B momentum cancel against a wario's halfway-charged fart at like 90>100 percent. Aww yeah =)

Where are you at?

Complete with the link to the OTHER thread and video about it. Wafflecopter for top tier

I should really get to finishing the vertical knockback stuff. It's so boring because there are a lot more ways to mess up. Different aerials give you more/less time to fastfall, which in some cases is worth the extra frames it takes to get the move out.

In the jawn, with the jawn.
Still trying to figure out how Munk is now in Florida, when he was an NJ player fora very long time.
When do you all expect to have a power rankings system set up and here.I'm curious to know who stacks up against who.

Posting EoW results here too:

9th of 26 in singles
Beat Tant 2-1
Lost to Neo 0-2
Beat BetaZealot 2-1
Beat Abyss 2-0
Lost to G-reg 1-2

I'm still pissed I lost to G-reg cuz he had to CP Fox after I jv 2 stocked his Snake 2nd game :( but oh well


As for where is this going...not sure, that's up to the boards. I still want NL and OS on the list, and others seem to as well. It won't be THAT hard to rank them, we should be able to figure out how their R.O.B. compares to the others. If need be, do a poll on it?

.Com likes to refer to himself in the third person as well at times. So if overswarm likes to do the same thing, .Com supports him.

I really do wonder who'd better Chibo or Holy.
Discuss?

i mean like, it would be nice to rank ninjalink, he easily has potential for best rob imo, but we dont have the accurate results to rank him. overswarm is practically the same boat, but slightly easier to do since hes gone all rob in tourneys at times, but still same prob. i say give em the honorable mentions.

i dont even remember where we were before...

didnt we split all robs into 3 groups (someone wanna find that list?) then we'l all talk and work on rankings the first group (whcih was 5 ppl iirc), then pick the top 5 out of the intermediate category, then order them.

problem solved.

0. Overswarm's MetaKnight
1. chibo
2. holy
3. metaknight
4. fishy
5. 2008 hugs
6. shadowrob
7. ninjalinks diddy
15. Overswarm's ROB
