I have a feeling Armada will be place 4th or 5th. I think him repeating his success will be next to impossible. considering he's now a target instead of an overlooked player. Mango will get slightly above armada. Amsah will get 2nd and someone you never saw coming will place first...basically becoming the new Mango...and history repeats itself....again.

yeah, cause you need 8 for crews I believe, and we for sure don't have 8 top players going anymore.

Due merely to the fact that Plank said he was going even with most of Europe in friendlies (he's housing them), I should already have a shadow of a basis to say that I'm not severely underestimating them.

Plank isn't a professional.

He doesn't place top 5 in major tournies. No offense to him.

But he went "even" with most of them.

If plank is going even with most of europe, then why would everyone on europe be placing top 5 or even top 10? This is turning into the "Let's act like europe is amazing when their best are even with a player who isn't even in talks for top 10 US" thread.

Lambchops was ****** armada in friendlies at genesis before brackets.

doesn't really mean that much,

europeans probably just sandbag before tournies so as to not show their true power level.

Hey Vegeta. What's the scouter say about the European's power level?

If you meet someone at a tournament and play a few matches with them, friendlies don't mean much.
But when you play someone enough to basically figure them out (and they figure you out), friendlies do speak to your ability as a player.

Explain to me how friendlies have no real meaning. Not only can you learn from people and their habits, but also how they react to things. People dont go dumb when they play friendlies, they still play just not at full potential.

Thay have no real meaning because people don't play like it was tournament. They play differently.
I just mind****ed a smasher at a recent tournament in my country just by playing slightly different in friendlies: I always tech in place, roll when I was near the ledge and other things.
He plays this game since 2006-2007 and attend to various tournaments so he immediately adapted to my "bad" abits.
We did like 20-30 friendlies and I didn't won a a single match.
When I've faced him in tournament I totally wrecked him.
He missed all the tech chases because he learned a "wrong" habit of mine.
Same for the rolls. Every time I put up my shield near the ledge he tried to predict roll with Fsmash and stuff. But... Well I don't roll and I punished him.
If I do his trick and I play this game for less then a year I think that pro players do this frequently.


I hope you understand what I mean because my english sucks real bad.

People can't think friendlies are legit. Armada wrecked Calle W at Svar 9(like he always does) and then he got wrecked by Calle W a week later in friendlies. Even worse it was by Calle's Captain Falcon.

so wait... you guys think that the top europeans are around the same standard as plank?

:laugh:

WOW, you're in for such a mind**** this weekend.



(no offence to plank, he's probably quite good and he's awesome for organising such a huge tournament so well, but saying that he's anywhere near as good as over, strawhat, adam, remen, zgetto etc is just so ridiculous LOL)

M2K has been on a steady decline because he simply doesn't practice Melee, and he does not have the innate talent to stay at his peak without practice. His skill comes from knowledge and training rather than adaptation; without constant effort he cannot and will not stay at the top. He'll still be better than most people, but I don't know if he'll actually break top 5 this time. If he HAS been practicing a lot I'm guessing at him for fourth or fifth.

I was under the impression that M2K's been practicing melee with DJN and Chops for the past week. Might be wrong.
