Wifi got me the way I am today. I wouldn't say it's complete ****, but it helps a ****load.

Smarter than your average wabbit.
@Prime: Some people can play in lag. Others, like M2K, NL, and Vex (all of whom I've heard ***** about wifi lag) have trouble adjusting and playing anywhere near their usual level.
If some people can adjust and others can't, it's not a very good reflection of skill between players in general, now is it?
EDIT: There's also the fact that in order to adjust to lag, most people have to change their playstyle. If you're playing completely differently than you would online, then yes, it's a different metagame. You said yourself that Zelda gets a buff and Pika gets nerfed in lag...... so that right there is saying that character potential changes online. That's probably why Stealth said what he did.

NL and Vex may complain about wifi, but they're still really good at it, lol. Vex was once ranked 1st on the aib ladder using Pit.

KayLo, that's just an inability to cope, really.

**** wifi. Makes playing it frustrating.
That's because they need to complain about something, Prime. It's in their blood. I bet their blood complains that their hearts don't beat fast enough for circulation either.
And for once, I agree with Serin.
WiFi lag isn't enough to stop a good player from being able to adapt.
Being able to switch play styles on and offline is also a way of expressing one's abilities and skills.

I only think wifi is SIGNIFICANTLY different when the lag is ****ing terrible. In most cases it seems to be CLOSE enough you can adapt. It sucks mistiming CGs or something when you're used to visual cues but.....
Man. That Bthrow was JUST not working for ya Espy. :<

Oh hey look, the king of complaints is complaining. It's funny that someone in your shape is talking about heart and blood circulation too
Prime, you're a wifi player, you've got the upper hand vs people that aren't wifi players. Please.

Ugh wi-fail, lol. I just canOt adapt to it. Even the slightest amount of lag, and i play terribly, lol. This is also whyi go through so many controllers, since if they even have the smallest amount of button lag, i canOt use them without playing beyond horribly, lol. I used to be almost completely wi-fail, but i couldnOt take the lag anymore and quit wi-fail. I only brawl occassionally on wi-fail cuz of that. I feel so bad for people who are stuck with wi-fi and nothing else, lol.

Prime already got his cyan name? D:
I'm still waiting for mine, and then for pink to wear off. <__>

^ Shame on you.
But I did like the name better without 1337. Just my input.
And Prime's a researcher now? What does that mean?

We Researchers just look into all that technical stuff. Like frames, equations, and the like. I find it fun. :D

Rob is my 2ndary and he sucks BIG time. I wanna drop him and pick up pikachu. Good move or no?

Didn't you try picking him up before and gave up saying he sucks?
What MUs are giving you the most trouble for your Samus/ROB?

Yeah. He said Pika didn't have "options"

Pikachu is hard to pick up and hard to keep going. Balancing that with Samus may be a bit much.

Once they play like 4 or 5 games, they'll be fine.Oh hey look, the king of complaints is complaining. It's funny that someone in your shape is talking about heart and blood circulation too
Prime, you're a wifi player, you've got the upper hand vs people that aren't wifi players. Please.
Seriously, I don't know why you guys hate wifi sooooo much. What to do to have fun is NOT TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!!
EDIT: Xyro, just pick up snake.
Huh?
I don't need to complain.
Sounds like your complaining about complaining.
Pikachu doesn't.

Your word vs. the SBR's. Pikachu is high tier. Just has a relatively high learning curve.

Today I noticed that it was possible to change the distance of QA. Is this already known? Because I haven't seen it anywhere :O

Smash Master
Uhh, not really. Pikachu's only terrible MU's out of all top and high tier are MK, Marth, and perhaps G&W.

Gets up to speed!
No.
Don't do it, it's a bad idea.

Hehe, you were awesome too bear. Wish we coulda hung out more but there was too much goin on with the tourney.
And pika has a hard time with everyone...but you most likely wont lose to someone less skilled than your pika either unless its like ice climbers or maybe marth.

You can do a half length QA if you let go sooner.

Do you mean by moving at a certain angle across the ground?
Pikabunz
Smash Hero
You can shorten the distance of QA if you don't hold the stick all the way down.

This is what I meant. For example, if you input the up+b and let go of the control stick, then Pikachu goes maybe 3/4 of the distance of if you hold up the whole time. How long you hold b doesn't change anything though.
