Alright, i`ve FINALLY gotten the time too start playing online. And this game in general.

Anyways, i just gotta know, have you guys gotten used too the lag too the point of it generally never throwing off your timing during delay? i`m not used too it yet and i`m asking if its possible too get used too. Is lag still noticebly hindering your play? can you adapt too it easily?

Just wondering how it affects you ganon players.

I can't deal with it. I love Ganondorf but I'm the type of guy who plays about 15-20 characters when I do free for alls, so I can't get the timing down online. Besides, the shield button lag kills my Ganon game and IMO (thanks to the lovely button lag) the key to doing well in Basic Brawl or Team Battle is to have fast, powerful, and high priority smash attacks. Ganon has the powerful, and the priority is decent, but they are too slow.

I stick to Ganon more offline then on.

Ahaha its a pain to get use to, and the timing still gets me sometimes esepcially when im recovering back onto FD, and I get caught under the edge of the stage just because my timing was off. Yeah pretty much at that point I just want to break my controller...lol. But at least I've finally got myself playing online as frustrating as it is...you definitely get to see a lot of different character styles played.

Im fine with it, took a while but im used to it.

Only trouble is if u push B and u get knocked of the stage before the lag registers it.

When I'm playing as Ganon online I normally get used to the lag right away. Sometimes it throws my timing off, but most times I can adjust to match it.
