MaxFalcon/BrokenPixel, And just Wolfwood I guess now that I think about it. I don't think you've met him but he's a Kirby/IC user (Both of his are respectable and pretty good. His ICs leveled up pretty hard since last year). He won last year.
I never dropped a set so I never had to play Rave this year. But Wolfwood beat Rave so I replayed him in grands. I Won 3-1 in grands and it's actually pretty hilarious now that I think about it.
Ok like the circumstances are because of all of the terrible brawl kids complaining about how cheap platforms are (it's a convention tourney mind you) the hosts AZHP Gaming made FD the only legal stage to shut them up. But the problem was that Wolfwood uses ICs, and they announced MK as banned. So I'm like... aww man. Because I will have to face wolfwood's ICs on FD no matter what (he kept saying how dumb the rule was but he was full of bull**** because last year when the smashers played we played by normal smash rules and followed the convention rules against everyone else. Well like yeah I TOTALLY lie to him really hard it's so funny. I basically told him that my ICs are ridiculously **** at the IC ditto matchup because I play Tommy in them all the time so that I don't get CG'd as GW. I told him he could test it but there was no way he'd win because i've never lost an IC ditto
lmao
So yeah I said that all outta my *** midway through the tourney when i noticed he was infiniting all the noobs and when we played in Winners and Grands he never once used them LOL
So I played his Kirby which was pretty mentally straining because he's just as gimmicky of a player as I am. In Grands I lost the first match to a 2 stock, it was the first match that didn't go to last hit and I was like: dude, **** this i am NOT playing another set. So I started losing the second match in grands and not only made a comeback but tried to do it rather stylishly to shake him up because he was playing too confident and REALLY well. I changed my style up enough to pull off the comeback. Now like, the crowd watching is consisting of my friends + tons of lower level players. They play very "honorably" and hate wolfwood. He wins by CGs and kirbycides and stuff and makes them all salty and is "cheap" etc etc
So like the entire crowd was on my side, so after I make the comeback my friends + the crowd start talking sooooo much **** it's hilarious. My friend LeROY was telling me after I got a 3 in a row tech chase on wolfwood, he yelled: HOW ARE YOU FALLING FOR THAT YOU ARE SOOO BAD, and wolfwood kept looking up into the crowd like: "Who the **** is saying that?!"
XD
dude, once he got shaken up I noticed how scared he was playing and went full flashy smiley mode on him because i'm thinking the more i make him look stupid the madder and more sloppy he'll get. It worked REALLY well, I Up-B'd him 4 times in a row and he got sooo mad, and I footstool'd him and ran away, and I got a 2 hammer tech chase into another tech chase and it was just cake after he basically mentally gave up.
So yeah, I basically exploited his weaknesses as a player more than anything. Rave went sooooo hard, but lost to his gimmicks.
. I always used to, and often still do in my head, call Bowser 'Koopa' and Ganondorf 'Gannon'.
