^Good luck on the next test .

Q
What should I do if Olimar is camping under a platform? He demolishes all my approaches

 

[Patches]

Run away. Lol wait for him to approach you, and look for him to make a mistake, then punish accordingly

 

[Rizen]

^What if I have to approach? He can time me out or on mid to small stages still throw pikmin that can build damage on me.

 

[Gardex]

Try bair, dtilt or nair, I guess. But if the olimar can easily see that coming, you'll pay for it.


Dueler X should answer my PM before I decide to team with someone else for the upcoming big german tourney (name search activate)

you need a hard-read on him usually. on paper gnw vs olimar seems bad because of the approaching and stage control game that plays out between the two (and olimar really wins there) but because when GnW gets in, he really gets in, I feel it's doable, you just need to take risks :s

Like the answer to your question is you can't do anything to Olimar under the platform unless you know what the next two moves he is going to do or he tries to throw pikmin at when you are close which is dumb

What program do tournament organizers use to make those presentations before a match starts?

You know, like in other fightings games "[Subject 1] vs. [Subject 2]".

 

[Sylarius]

If you mean to make the brackets, tio tournament organizer.

 

[SFA Smiley]

Yeah we use tio

downtilt x 1000000000
also learn how to juggle olimar properly
Yes, he is a fairly easy character to juggle but learn ways to trap him in situations for a gimp or even more juggles. Get the most out of it.

 

[Splice]

Dtilt if you can get close enough to do it safely. Good olimar should catch on and make that hard though. Getting the most out of juggles is how you make it all worth it, like penta said.

It'd be cool if Brawl tournaments ran like swiss pools
It'd probably take too long

 

[UTDZac]

That's why we dont do swiss

If we had a TV for each pair of players in the room then we'd be able to do swiss. Otherwise it's not time efficient.

 

[Patches]

Whats the swiss way of doing it?

 

[SFA Smiley]

AZ wanted to do swiss's for a while but I sorta didnt understand it. Sounded like a more complicated round robin.

I mean like this presentation:

[Blacknight99923]

UTD does your judgement count include times you've SEEN 9's or landed them?

 

[UTDZac]

Only times I've landed them.

That's just something that some few people feel like making to make their videos look cool.

You can make it in w/e video editing/creating software you got(As long as it isn't a basic program like Windows moviemaker).

^ALttP Dark/Light world portal sound to start the game. Nice touch.

 

[Deleted member 189823]

I want to do that with my Brawl matches too. 8]

Ooh, I just noticed that the ShyGuy is Zac, the great gaw player. o3o

 

[Rizen]

^Zac can use magic to merge those 2 posts too!

 

[Deleted member 189823]

Yeah, sorry for the double post. ):

So am I the best Game&Watch yet?

 

[Rizen]

^What hack was that? Awesome background, what is it from?

 

[SFA Smiley]

Vanilla Brawl. Just my stage texture, it's original as far as I know. Not taken from anywhere.

Edit: That was only 1 of 2 matches I dropped at that round robin, too XD

It's ok, I've seen worse.

 

[Sylarius]

Slowfall dair, I'm assuming it was an input error though.
You can only SD while offstage, there's no doubt in my mind you would have beat him even if you had stayed on the stage the whole game

 

[SFA Smiley]

Yeah I beat him, I'm a much better player. But it was still really funny when it happened.

 

[Dexident]

I really despise brawl +/-

Bucket gets filled in one hit? So annoying.

Hahaha.

Well, your tecnique's good. That one where you short hop and sway away from your enemy to trigger an approach. I wish I could do that. :E

 

[Splice]

lol smiley

I probably do that more than anyone else here *sigh*
When planking with GaW and going for Nair understage sometimes I input "down" to drop "X and A" to jump and nair the stage... except sometimes I'm still holding the down when I press A

Suicide

Best thing about that video was the DarkMatter/Zero music. That was actually the best part of my day, and now I have the song on youtuberepeat lol. The nostalgia is burning me

I read a definition about Johns and stated that a player made an excuse of losing because his hands were cold.

It's actually true. ._.

Yep.

The rule of Johns though, is that even valid johns are still johns.

John is a neutral term, there are valid and invalid johns

 

[Deleted member 189823]

Oh...

8[

I think valid johns are okay because the player actually did lose for the stated reason (i.e my controller wasn't working well).

From my understanding of the story the original john ALWAYS had one john or another, not just one incident.

 

[UTDZac]

The original john lives in my state. His name was john, btw. I dont know much else but can find out

 

[Deleted member 189823]

How do you make gaw's D-Air spike? It usually goes through my opponent and delivers vertical knockback for me.

 

[Gardex]

During the start of the move (That brief moment when G&W slams his key downwards)

 

[Dexident]

How do you make gaw's D-Air spike? It usually goes through my opponent and delivers vertical knockback for me.

It's is irritatingly hard to land and dangerous. The only truly safe place to throw it out is when you are at the edge but still above the ground. Otherwise you've got to be great at slow-falling and sweet spotting the ledge, as well as not derping around in general.
