You're either ill, at school, or too lazy to even text my SMS back...
I plan to continue to smash throughout Europe (already went to England, Germany, France, of course...) ; there's some hidden people in Nederlands and Austria too.
Why don't you come with me ? (We'll be the Bacon Busters in doubles :) )

I wanna spread out mah Randomitude everywhere in this world.
Wish I could, but kinda busy now. Exams will start soon and I'm not ready yet. I'll call you when I am free. :)

(dumb 'database error', I had to retype this)

Good luck at APEX everyone!

Qs: When G&W has a full bucket can it still bucket break? What's the Wolf/G&W MU? If I save my second jump and upB can I cancel the parachute and then second jump before landing? Can someone link me to a list of what G&W can do after Dthrowing and to which characters?

Bucket Brake doesn't work when it's full, sadly. That is why you should immediately look for a way to land it if you have a relatively weak bucket, for example against Falco.
I don't know about the 2nd question, but I think you should be able to if you do it from the ground.

For Dthrow, try reading this: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=298130
It's awesome.

If you use up b before having used your 2nd jump, then you can jump afterwards IF you exit the parachute with an attack or airdodge.

Hey guys, how should I approach my pools?
Zeton is fox, I dunno don't get upsmashed I guess

For Dark pch, try to stay under her, use lots of nair. Catch turnips on turnip approaches with fair or nair. Autocancelled fair approaches can be jabbed out of so don't try to punish them, it's not worth the risk unless pch screws his spacing (which good peaches don't do often), fullhop bair float approaches early before peach can do anything about it and if you manage to get dair'd DI up through it. If they dair your shield Up-b but switch it up don't do it everytime because peach can bait that reaction and punish if they're thinking clearly. When edgehogging peach LOOK AT THE PARASOL. Don't climb onto the ledge until the parasol is about to touch you. don't look at peach look at the parasol.

Basically stay under her and use lots of nair

I've played Zeton many times. He's an excellent fox. Don't let him trick you into playing at his speed, he's very fast and will tear you apart with tricks and such.

Thanks for the advice, LzR and Gardex :) . A2Z has a great guide I had forgotten about. I wonder if G&W Dthrows on a small platform like BF's he could platform drop>double jump>Nair>landing cancel it>combo into a Dsmash for extra damage?

Smile is from my state. I believe he's Falco. That's all I can say... I haven't gotten the chance to play him ;-;.

Just a word on G & W vs. Wolf (nothing remotely official). I've just noticed that most good Wolf players I have gone against definitely use his projectile wisely and usually as an attack that they can chase up afterward with some A tilts or smashes. It seems that bucketing Wolf lasers is precise and can lead to being punished easily if they don't actually fire a laser or you hold the bucket hoping for a second.

That being said, a bucket full of Wolf's lasers is significantly more worth having than a bucket from either Fox or Falco.

Wolf gives you a pretty much 0death bucket. Totally worth taking some smashes from the absorbing lag.

Damn Apex was amazing, the stream was great except for the small issues!

The only bad games I saw were the melee 1 vs 1 GF... seriously, Armada and his young link camping... da ****....

Good job to all the japanese, Otori, Nietono, Kakera, etc, they were so amazing.

I want to play ****ing Olimar now. OP.

How did you feel the event guys (for those who went there)?

Apex was really hype, Japan won both events lol.

I got first seeding in my first pool , went way better than expected. :smash:
I had X, Trela, Hall, Bleachigo in my second pool, got third so I didn't make it out:(. My matches were recorded I think.

Good stufffff overall.

No, Brawl is still boring to watch and I still wouldn't care about Apex more than I do now.
