Olimar will destroy your landings. Bair is not too bad if you abuse platforms to land on them or keep your jump

Space Bair so Oli will not punish with Usmash OoS (save ur jump too) and at the very least have trouble SDIing well enough to punish you (especially if the Bair is rising). Sometimes if im definitely gonna poke i'll dig in with the Bair instead and hope I get the last hit to hit him away before he SDIs.

Fino is really good but you can use Bair in this MU

@Clover: Isn't it whites and purples on Delfino? I don't remember all the stages anymore, I used to when I played the MU often. But I guess I did misread.

I knew Yellow Uair was good, but i didnt know all other hitbubbles were the same.
It could be that Dair can beat all the other hit bubbles if spaced then?
Basically I'll close with our Dair can beat your Uair possibly but it's not a good idea anyway. lol

@GIMR: That must have been a great doubles set, with teams like that :)

...I noticed that and i was talking about grounded olimar.
You can still abuse platforms against a grounded Olimar, if you still have your second jump. Even without it you can still be safe against Oli although obviously its preferable.

Playing against Zori reminded me of the hate I have for going against Olimar. Genesis though was amazing. I played a couple of G&W dittos/friendlies but I didn't get a chance to friendly you Alph. Hopefully I can have a chance to play you at Apex. :glare:

Lol yeah sorry about that. I went out of my way to find you that day actually, but you were playing, and then stuff started, and then I didn't know where you were.

I wanna go to APEX, and will try to get money for it, so if we're both there, friendlies will happen.

As you'll notice, it has some particularly obscene pluck percentages for all colors except white in different areas of the stage.

Basically I'll close with our Dair can beat your Uair possibly but it's not a good idea anyway. lol
So... square one, then? ^^;

Anyway, sorry to rant about insignificant Olimar crap, G&W players!

Good luck Overgamer!

I have a tournament this Saturday too...not too big of one, but still. I'm feeling pretty good about my Game and Watch right now. I was doing pretty good at a little smashfest I was just at.

I just won... a smash tourney. Beat denti, arguably one of the best Olimars out there.

:)
Wow that's amazing! Congrats! Sif you're retired man! ;D

Are the videos on youtube? I think they'd be great for reference in our match-up threads.

Btw, mind helping us out in the MU thread?

I forgot to record/save replays =( I will check, maybe I have some.

It basically came down to him winning on starters and me winning on counterpicks (lol). Game 5 was on lylat.

It's really hard to approach, still not sure how. The trick is to get him above you and jungle with nair / never let him hit the ground (like snake). Dthrow is godly, as Olimar's roll is horrendous. Fair helps you keep him off stage if you can mindgame him to airdodge / downB early. It's also important to note what pikmin he has up next, if it's blue / purple then grabs / upsmash oos will kill you.

The matchup is whacky.

It's a sign...for you to unretire!

Oh sorry. When I was done, I tried looking for you as well but I noticed all of the stations were taken so I kinda imagined that we wouldn't have had the chance. It's OK though.

Excellent. :yeahboi:

Hey guys I'm back! placed 9th out of 48 opponents. We had pools, and then 32 player brackets.
I met the GF winner on round 2 (Deimos, who was playing a very skilled Marth), so yeah it was a hard start, but I fight my way in the looser until I finaly loose to a MK.

I won't john about how many SD I did, but there were quiet a few. =')
We also made a super wombo giant crew the final day after the single and doubles, with 2 teams, and we saved all replays, I'll post them as soon as I can get my hands on'em. Overall, I really enjoyed playing 4 days of Brawl. I learned many things in some MU, and will try to contribute as much as I can. I also met Lifes, and we were having fun talking about MUs & lots of other facts. He told me he knows lot of things, but he can't really translate properly, so I'll help him share his knowlege.

PS: GG Zac for ****** a good Olimar! G&W da bess!

Nice one Overgamer! Speaking of ****** Olimars, we're discussing him right now so you could have a quick look at the MU thread.

Great to have you back -- why do you keep leaving us? :laugh:
