Physical habits and gamer-faces!

[Anthon1996]

A large grin whenever I'm doing an epic combo or I'm 4-stocking my opponent. If I my combo gets messed up or I die, it turns back into a stoneface.

That also goes for when I'm watching matches of the characters I play.

 

[Jonas]

if i'm intently watching someone play or watching videos, when a fox accidentally side+b's off the stage my right thumb always TWITCHES in real life so i can cancel his illusion before he dies LOL

If you watch them play, you should just grab their controller and press B on reaction.

 

[Stratford]

I've been told by IL players that when I dthrow tech chase someone I always seem to take a finger and fix my glasses.

And that they thought I was trying to look into their soul or something to see their next tech.

Pretty funny. Never noticed it myself though LOL

I think I know what they mean . During Sheik's dthrow animation sometimes you take a finger to fix your glasses before you have to react for the tech chase. I never realized that you were doing it to look into people's souls. Makes sense though.

Lol thanks for that. What a great guy.

 

[Grim Tuesday]

mew2king rocks a lot and does weird **** with this eyebrows/eyes sometimes o.o

^This^

He also looks really disinterested, lol.

 

[40secondz]

I have weird mouth movements and I tend to open my mouth when doing technical stuff. But I try to catch myself and close my mouth, then I seems to get worse so I kinda need to do these movements.

 

[MonkUnit]

The rocking back and forth is an autistic thing actually. Not sure about the eyebrow thing.


Also, I usually have my mouth open when I play but if I start going faster than I thought I was, such as edgecanceling a lot, my mouth tends to close and I grind my teeth. i also have my right shoulder twitch every time I do a 0-death with samus.

 

[-ShadowPhoenix-]

In tournament i look super concentrated...

In friendlies against close friends i'll curse if i lose a stock

 

[THeDarKnesS]

I lean forward and my tone of voice lowers if I speak at all. "good****". If an opponent does something that was good I generally acknowledge the skill with a slow double nod. Sometimes I curl my lips in and lick them.

 

[joeplicate]

i bite my upper lip so hard



after a tournament or a smashfest, i can always tell i've been trying hard when there are indentations from my teeth and my lips hurt lmao. also i teeth grind like a mother****er, i'm an orally fixated person.



aside from that, when i'm playing a serious match my eyebrows will bunch together, and i can't hit running upsmashes unless i send a super massive jolt through my whole arms LOL

 

[Dimitris]

Stretchnutz and TAI, that was some teamwork.

 

[Teczer0]

I honestly didn't realize it until people told me I did it.

LOL freakin mad you said it makes sense.

 

[Acryte]

I remove any long sleeve shirts, coats and watches. I also position my arms a certain way resting on my lap. Probably got my lip curled in if its a legit match.

 

[Wake]

I always rub my nose between stocks

 

[I.B]

I usually have this focused/slightly annoyed look on my face while my mouth moves around like it's trying its hardest not to blare out curse words lol

 

[HomeMadeWaffles]

i tend to put my shirt over my mouth

and i have to play with my pockets completely empty

 

[Metal Reeper]

^ I need tto play with empty pockets to. That's where my hand lies and...it just feels off.
I have to sit really close to the tv, and lean forward. I never lean back or sit up straight.

 

[Fuss]

I'm too focused on the match to focus on what I'm doing.. I probably look cereal.

 

[Bing]

my hand twites really bad, like when I need to a tech or something my whole body quickly tenses up. Its getting so bad that after playing for a few hours (smashfest or tournament) my wrist hurts for weeks XD

Swedish smashers, we're the best.

wtf

are those females in the background?

 

[Rostigalen]

Lol Tai, yes it is. We have gamer chicks. One of them, Gamba (not pictured) even beat Zgetto in one game at BEAST

 

[Massive]

I get an instantaneous nose itch every time I rest.

It also shows up when I miss a rest. I hate that nose itch.

I don't think it's a habit so much, but I also scoot/lean forward when I'm really trying hard.

 

[standardtoaster]

I'm too focused on the match to focus on what I'm doing.. I probably look cereal.

*dead *

 

[Divinokage]

I lean forward when I land a dair and I sometimes press the L-Cancel button 2-3 times to make sure I L-cancel lol.

 

[crush]

Whenever I hold a controller (even xbox controllers) I randomly start doing the inputs for drill shining. And whenever I'm holding my controller with just my right hand I always press x a r without thinking like I'm doing sh nairs. Also when something bad happens to me that I approve of I nod my head but if I don't approve (like unfortunate phantom hits or me suiciding) I facepalm lol. Oh and when I'm watching games and someones recovering I always try and ledgetech and di even when I don't have a controller in my hands lol

 

[Da Shuffla]

My hands don't get sweaty like many others do. I never understood why.

People tell me I look intent/angry while I play.

I sometimes lean forward, but I'm starting to lean back a little in an effort to relax my subconscious. It makes sense, though. If I'm relaxed, my brain is less likely to be stressed. This has worked for me before.

My goal is to work my way all the way back to the Eggm posture.

That is how I will attain true greatness.

 

[EPsilon933]

Crack my neck after every few kills

 

[DoH]

I notice a lot of jigglypuffs jerk their controller when they get a rest, like soft

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

The leaning foward or leaning back with my eyes in zoom in mode and never paying attention to anything else.

 

[Matt86]

I always wipe the sweat off my hands on my pants between stocks. (most people do)

I do strange tongue movements during matches.

I have been known to talk a lot of **** when playing against my cousin

My expression is usually more or less calm, and expressionless. I lean forward with my eyes all zoomed in.

When I lose a stock, I will shake my head or look down at the ground.

I'm prone to yelling like a lunatic if anything outrageous happens. Since I main Luigi, if I get a misfire I get this big smile on my face.

If / when I get down to my last stock I sometimes shout "Ban-Kai" (lmao), before going all out serious!!!

Sometimes when I get really pissed off, I make up my own curse words like the AVGN, or the Tourettes Guy. But mostly around friends.

 

[Fuss]

I don't think shouting that does anything but attract all females in a negative fifty foot radius.

 

[Metal Reeper]

A lot of top level players I see sit ALLL the way back in their seat with their feet up. M2K/Cactus.

 

[TheDekuNut]

i do a bunch of things. sometimes i lean alll the way back or sometimes I put my hands way below my knees. when my friend get serious/tries not to lose he flicks the sticks really loud gets super technical and sways kinda quickly. i'll pay closer attention to what i do its almost like i cant decide what to do with myself

 

[Strong Badam]

The rocking back and forth is an autistic thing actually. Not sure about the eyebrow thing.

I know he's autistic. <_< You've now added nothing to the conversation I HATE YOU MONKUNIT

 

[Matt86]

...... lol

 

[Palpi]

When I get off, my mouth opens and closes with each hit.

I do that Mario kart DI, especially when I'm sdi'ing.

Also, if anything or anyone touches me me when I play, I play significantly worse. I take out my cell phone and wallet if my arms are leaning on them because it would classify as an obstruction to my gameplay.

 

[Da Shuffla]

^^ Glad to know I'm not the only one who empties his pockets.

 

[rhan]

I tend to bite my bottom lip when I get nervous or if I'm under pressure. I don't believe I have a "gamer" face. I also empty my pockets before I play serious rounds cuz I prefer to sit on the ground and if there's anything in my pockets, my pants will tighten and rub against my thighs.


I also find myself shaking my head whenever I do something wrong (Like edge hop fair too much). It's like me sub consciously telling myself I have to stop that.
