[KayLo!]

I feel like I want to report this post =_=

Get out of here nobody

This isn't CoT5, can't kick me out lol.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

man so much hate for a crew member

 

[KayLo!]

We're not crew members. =X

(& I really hope he didn't take me seriously, because that'd be hilarious if he did.)

 

[Roller]

a lot of people miss this point, and its why i have kinda been on and off about using secondaries for matchups i hate. really need to master pika more before i secondary it up

Oh good. I look forward to you going pika vs my ICs. n_n

I feel the same way, Stealth. I guess I 'm just a secret genius about this kind of stuff, lol. I haven;t used a secondary in months, I wanna make sure my Pikas is good first. even though I will never beat Roller with him, ever.

 

[Phoenix Lord']

A man can only lose so many times before realising that he will never win ever. I hit that point on the first day we met.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

i will stand by never using pika on ics. **** dat, ill go rob

 

[Ussi]

i tried pika vs ICs, never again.

 

[PZ]

I rather be kirby....

Hi! Well! I some n00b who's wondering how do you do mid-air turn arounds on moves like Down B and Neutral B. i watch some matches on smash boards especially ESAM. It looks like he turns his tjolts(neurtal B) around in mid air. I've been trying. How could one learn to do this?

 

[Pikabunz]

Press back, release back, then use any B move.

or

Use a B move then quickly press back right after. Doing it this way also reverses your momentum.

 

[Strong Badam]

two ways on tjolt
1. hold back, reset to neutral hit b
2. hit b, then quickly (within 3 to 5 frames iirc?) hit back

Yall a bunch of cowards. Pika vs ICs on FD all day.

I'll make you change your mind about this next week.

 

[Roller]

...Nordal Climbers? =o



I want to see themmmmm!!!!! =D


EDIT: And I know that feel Phoenix, same way I am with Logic. smh. (hi logic)

 

[Phoenix Lord']

Well you'd better hurry and get better against Logic or else your Olimar Gauntlet might not go as well as you'd like. Also, I'm gonna pick up a secondary to combat ICs soon because I hate them.

 

[Cassio]

For some reason I fsmashed marth through the stage while he was up-bing to the ledge on smashville.

Probably known already but if MK tries to upb you from the ledge you can fsmash him.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

problem is no half decent mk up-bs from the ledge anymore, way too punishable

 

[Cassio]

yeah it was surprising bc I dont see MKs do it. Thats probably why, lol.

 

[Syko_Lemming]

Does anyone know where to find that video of anther and lain in doubles, and at one point in the match they're both chaingrabbing the other team?

[Ussi]

LOL CG > usmash > pika nair > skull bash

too bad IC's Up B didn't actually land on the follow up

 

[Roller]

clas sic.

 

[PZ]

wow that would've been amazing if it connected still funny lol

 

[Kuro~]

Are there any vids of pika vs peach where both are playing the mu correctly??

Or at the very least the pika is...

 

[Stealth Raptor]

As stated in the panel not really lol

 

[PZ]

I need help with OOS options for the ftilts of mk and snake or any character that has that one gay move that says "I can hit you with all hits or just 1 or 2". I always find myself camping these mus to a point where I can't even bair it. Can anyone help?

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

If you are close enough to snake you can grab him in between the hits. Otherwise...it becomes prediction since there isn't a 100% win situation.

 

[Ussi]

I always find myself camping these mus to a point where I can't even bair it. Can anyone help?

for one, stop trying to bair it

 

[Stealth Raptor]

yeah, it might fair better for you if you dair to not bair it. up to you~

enjoy lolz.

Ahahaha, this amuses me too much

 

[PKChrisChan]

Hi. I'm some n00b pikachu! Whats the best way to learn to shield grab? I've tried with all level computers in training mode and none of them ever use a dash attack for me to practice this technique.

And i can't seem to do it against humans either, im always getting punished.

 

[Ussi]

shield grab... you just press attack while you are holding shield... only if they are close enough after hitting your shield. You gotta position yourself for it. Pika's grab range is small, so good spacing moves are hard to shield grab as Pika.

 

[PZ]

If you are close enough to snake you can grab him in between the hits. Otherwise...it becomes prediction since there isn't a 100% win situation.

So dash<shield=a good approach vs. snake? did not know that and yea dair works ok with mk while no 100% win situation is still gay I much rather just roll away or into to mix it up.

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

You have to change up your approaches. Snake has options to beat your approaches, but Pikachu has many more options to cover one of his choices. Everything is a good approach, just in the right circumstance.

Watch me vs mvd/razer/ally if you want video proof so you can see what I do.

 

[PZ]

Yea your pretty good in that mu but I don't get how you do well vs some broken moves like that when you always or usually do make the right decision. :S

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

I've played against Snake more times than probably any other character besides ZSS.

 

[PZ]

Snake, mk, marth(sorta), and zss the most basically...

 

[Strong Badam]

Idk Snake is a hard character to fight. There's a lot of things you need to keep in mind while approaching him because of both his projectiles and his ridiculous hitboxes on his tilts and such. I think it requires a lot of experience to keep all of these things fresh in your mind while fighting him.

 

[Ussi]

i end up doing well against Snake whenever I used Pikachu :s
