Well yeah it was, but I still wanted to go to it so badly @_@. To think how, I had to have my dad come with me to Apex 1, and 1 year later I'm missing school to go to MLG Columbus by plane with smash friends XD... how times change.

****! I wasn't able to go to COT4 on my 16th bday T_T. So weird to think that in a few months I'll be 18, and I joined the competitive scene when I was 15 @_@.
I joined the competitive smash scene when I was 14. I'm 21 and turn 22 in Dec.

Wow I feel old lmao.

Hey, my brithday is about two weeks after yours, on the 15th of October.

I didn't really ever get into the competitive play until recently actually. But I played with my friends a lot who did, and I am about as good as them. I'm only 16 right now, and I think I started getting seriously serious about a year ago.

Just watched zac vs lee (hobo WF), and in game 2 last stock, it looks like zac downthrows at 0, then punishes the no tech with dair, which appears to have forced a trip. Am I seeing this right? Also, would dthrow -> dair -> 9 be a combo if this is what actually happened?

ehem...back to game and watch? ive had trouble with bucket braking. am i getting the timing wrong or what?
You just do a N-air after frame 25 of incurring knockback or something, and then you press Down-B. Remember to let go of the control stick after DIing.

Wouldn't be surprised.

Either I need to go to Dallas or you need to come to Ohio cause I need some of that training.

Was checking G&W's pac file. Apparently he serves you sausage, steak, fried prawns, and fish.

Bacon isn't anywhere to be found. O_o

lol got the topic title changed.

By the way, I'm gonna say it again...please learn to do perfect ledgehop F-air SJRs. It's not actually that hard to do, it has obvious benefits, and it has more benefits against the vast majority of people who aren't aware that G&W is able to ledgehop F-air laglessly.

Video here, read description for times I pull it off

Nice, G&W rose this time! My hat is off to Vex/Zac/Vinnie, who have all been doing pretty good with G&W, helping him rise. Keep at it.

Also, I'm not a huge fan of the ledgehopped Fairs, as a mistake can cause you to go into the ****ty landing lag, right next to the edge (which in turn is near the blastzone). I can see if being good if you can master it, but you haven't even got it down, A2, judging from the video. Well, maybe you did get it down by now.

<3 no LGL as G&W.
Also, since when? I thought Zac had the opinion that MK was our hardest? Oh, and:



???
Yeah, slightly closer than that now. I don't feel like I'm at much of a disadvantage, and me and Zac have been slaying top metaknights lately (I've slayed Shadow, Atomsk, Nairo, and Inui recently. Zac beat Dojo, Lee Martin, and a few other really good ones).

I don't think MK is hardest. I would say ICs and Falco
ICs is our hardest matchup, followed by Marth.
