Mote Of Dust
So My second big brawl tournament( first was Centex in san antonio in october ). Hobo 12 ( Houston Official brawl Oredeal, or some **** like that ), and I felt it was time for a realistic, growing link who isn't all powerful to post his results from a major, credible tournament. I suppose technically i placed something like 35th out of 65ish opponents ( doesn't know if that sounds better than 33rd place out of 49 places ).
Anyway this god ****ed tournament was hard as ****, just some of the people there were Sethlon, Santi, Dojo, RoyR, Hylian and Xyro. I was knocked out of the tournament going against pretty much THE ice climbers of texas, melee1. first match i was *****, never went against an ice climbers before and never really thought about his chaingrab until.... well until the second match because those first three stocks went by so fast idk what happened. The first tournament I went to, I really learned about effectively zairing and shffing nair. this tournament I learned A LOT about effective projectile spam. My first match, was against a snake named Ran ( I believe ), they were hard battles and I eventually lost, but he gave me great advice. He said my only real problem is my approach, which though works fine against say my best friend who uses a more than decent falcon, against others who have to get smart with projectiles. I listened, but at the same time I put it towards the back of my mind, I mean could a non-link main no whats better than I? Anyway back to Melee1, second match started. I decided, hell, can't do any worse going with the snakes advice. So in a rush of adrenaline I started trying different bomb arrow and gale tricks than i had before, and much more frequent. to me, the idea was more or less, keep that mother ****er away from me. I got him at about 100 percent than he got me. I put up more fight but still lost the stock. the next two went simmilarly accept nowhere as nicely, getting him to around 130 a;ll together but couldn't knock him out before i lost all stocks. This isn't a "help against IC thread", I just know he was plain better than I was. years of playing smash, being in the smash community, and I have a big sum of around 2 months going for me.
Anyway I wanted to have a thread showing the common link working his *** off and showing some results, i know what I have to work on ( sticking with honing my projectile game , and counterpicking stages ), but for the first time I saw that my hard work was indeed paying off. I am sure some of you think I'm a bum, I probably am, but the houston scene is tough i mean hell last hobo m2k and azen flew down for it, so I know i am slowly getting good. thanks for reading.
hope this thread is allowed...
