Dark, I'll teach you in-between bustin Stealth and Kenny's ***es. :bee:

& yeah, Anther's still the best. ESAM did do really well, though, and I'm definitely impressed by how far he's come.
okie dokie

Kenny, you should try to get up vids of you vs Fatal so that I can tell you what you can do to get better. People were telling him he could footstool out of the CG, and I think he believed it...

Also, since it hasn't been an official post.

ESAM
4/186 @ MLG Orlando
All pika, no secondaries (Or MK against Kel, that was wrong lol)
I won 700$ :D

can i also accept this? please?!?!?!?!?!!?!?
Yeah, you're free to come get your *** bust too. =D

Are you actually coming to the tourney we're talking about, or is this just a sometime-in-the-future type of thing? XD


how bout i bust kaylo, then i will sit you down and teach you some pikachu ;) as a bonus ill be beating kaylo at the same time with one hand :D
Stealth, my Zelda will break your Pika in two.

The only Pika I can't beat in a set with Zelda (so far) is Prime. And yes, that's an official challenge to anybody who wants to try. And yes, I mean on wifi or offline, although super lag doesn't count.

Props to Kenny and Syko for takin matches off, though.


I won 700$ :D
Hooooly ****, I'm jealous. **** the fame, the money's the good part.

lol. My snake pro ain't Fatal, it's Candy.

And I hope he wouldn't believe the footstooling thing >.>

Oh, my bad. Fatal is Tri-state then?

But yeah, Candy did...not so good. 2 stock and 3 stock. He needs to get better at camping and transitioning that into grabs. All snakes are the same besides ally, so once you learn one, you learn them all. Seriously, I predicted everything that candy and fatal did because my team partner does the same exact **** (Like I b-throw off the level, the fall a little and DJ bair, but i space an F-smash). It is really an easy match-up, i definitely think it is Pikachu's favor at least 55:45. I personally think its 60:40.

Eh. I wish he'd play me more and get more of a feel for the match up. He never takes me seriously though. Oh well!

So this does mean you're coming up the Columbus, right?

Fatal is New England btw.

THANK YOU. I wouldn't go so far as 60:40 imo, but I've always thought Pika vs. Snake was slightly in Pika's favor. Every time I see a Snake go "hurrdurr 60:40 in Snake's favor", it sounds so ridiculous to me.

How often do you cg Snakes, ESAM? I do so bad in this MU probably cause I'm too aggressive. I always get ftilted to hell. ><

You have to be passive aggressive. The matches that i 3 stocked fatal/candy I think I got a CG at least 2 stocks. On halberd (Where I lost to Candy) I went bored aggro because I had a match to spare and I wasn't scared of a third match. You can't just auto-pilot T-jolts either, you have to do them carefully so you don't get hit by nades. I hope the vids are allowed to be put up, I would really want to just have you guys watch them.

i take my most damage from grabs now lol
Same. =\

The hardest part for me is staying alive and getting the first kill..... makes the matchup so much easier for me. If you die before Snake, though, it rapidly becomes impossible once you're forced to approach. x.x At least..... that's how I feel!

I got the first kill vs all 3 snakes (I'm including the first stock vs my interrupted MM vs ally). Baiting Snake's options is so easy. If you run at them when they have a grenade, they are almost always gonna grab or sidestep, so you run short, they grab/sidestep, then you dash grab, and hopefully you get far enough away from the grenade to CG. Also...I should make a thread on it so nvm I'll do that.

I lost to fatal on halberd because I got bored and starting playing stupid and aggressive because I knew I could win the third match (Not even joking/being arrogant...well yes arrogant but I'm not over-hyping).

I like 3 stocks. They are delicious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1Idf6_x3cA

The snakes are the same >_> They do the same thing all the time. One may be better at timing grenades, but its the same. If they are falling close over you they are gonn bair. If they are moving behind you they are gonna AD. If they are recovering with their head towards you and don't start a fair at their DJ they are gonna AD (Fully charge F-smash or grab at low %s). They are gonna sidestep when you run at them if they have a nade in their hand. If they don't, they are gonna F-tilt, so jump and T-jolt at that point. It's so easy and snakes options are so limited, regardless of how amazing they are.

Anther did well at 2 tourneys over the weekend, 2nd at a small one, 5th (I think) at a bigger one. But Don't count that as a report, idk the exact numbers.

I'm sure people went to tournies..... they're just too lazy to post their results.

My next tourney isn't until the 8th, so meh.

Anther placed 5th at Nope's Monthly in Springfield losing to AlphaZealot's Diddy Kong 2-0 and uh... I think Judge's Meta Knight (Don't know the game count). Placed behind M2k, Shugo, Kel and Judge, in that order.

I thought you had one on the 1st? Must be a terrible day to run tourneys, cause the one I was going to on the 1st got canceled -_-

I hope we don't get paired in the bracket right away.
Pika dittos or Zelda dittos or a mix of the two would suck.

Eww Kel placed higher than him?
That's not very good at all...(JK Kel <3, but Anther as being the best pikachu should be placing higher than you.)

He didn't play Kel...... so your logic makes zero sense.

Anyways, @alt: We're going to Atlantic City instead. We might still try to swing by Asylum on Saturday (since we're technically going to AC Friday night), but considering how hungover/tired we're gonna be, I dunno if I'll be up for entering a tournament. ;;

psst! your bitterness is showing...

I can't wait for MLG columbus so we can put an end to the "best pikachu" shenanigans -_-

@KLO!: Nice sounds like fun! Definitely better than a tourney lol.
