Would it help if I told you I was a masochist?

i like sheik so i was like **** it let's try samus, and i'm trying to figure things out and it's like... yeah okay sure. and then i tried MK and it was like playing jesus with a sword despite knowing nothing about the character. i have no idea how one goes about playing ZSS, she has holes everywhere. she's like ike except actually fun (ike is only fun if your opponents are significantly worse than you lol).

Universal Brawl mechanics serve to make every character better in the transition from Melee to Brawl to at least some degree.
Fox being easier to play is actually pretty significant because of how technically demanding he is, and the difficulty that comes with needing to be consistent when playing him. It just takes less stamina to do so in PM.
New stages in general tend to favor Fox as well.

Being easier is significant, very significant, but that's for now, I don't consider it a factor unless PMBR decide to get lazy and stop working in mechanics and what-not, but i do get the stages, especially places like Warioware

Yeah, I wasn't too clear myself on what keeps people playing Fox and Falco with all of the changes happening around them. I'm not saying that to mean "Why do you play Fox/Falco when there are these OTHER characters available", I'm saying, how do you adapt to that? What keeps you in the Fox/Falco game with everything around you changing so much, and your character (provided you play Fox/Falco) remaining mostly the same?

...if that make sense.

Idk about other spacie mains, but i keep on playing them simply bc of their technical demand (not so much falco) hell nowadays the only reason i still boot up melee is to use fox/falco/falcon, plus i like new challenges, believe it or not fighting against the same 8 characters gets a little stale, especially if you other options like PM, oh and shine

Maybe if you stop doing back jump Fair with Ike... It'll be fun. =P

Yeah I mirror what Kage is saying. You have to work pretty hard to be safe and impose your will on your opponents with Ike or ZSS, but it certainly is possible for them to compete.

MK is just Jesus with a sword, no doubt.

This part made me sad :(.

Anyway, there was a small PM tournament in St. Louis that featured Hylian, Vista, Darkatma, and me. The format was 10-man round-robin into a 3-man bracket, with 2nd and 3rd seeds playing out Losers Finals and the winner of that playing 1st seed for Grand Finals. I've finished uploading all of my videos; loser's finals can be found here, grand finals can be found here, and the entire playlist can be found here.

Mk ditto=worst matchup to watch or play. The one char with a tech roll worse than falcons+shiek like tech chases

Imagine if we played REAL characters.

Yeah Oracle I really don't like them much either, it's kinda like Sheik dittos with chain grabs, but instead it's tech chases. It's pretty clear who is the better MK when you play, but it doesn't make it more enjoyable.

Are you referring to the the chips, or the idea of fried chicken and waffles in general?
In general flavored chips are pretty whack... as is basically anything trying to replicate flavors of other foods...Actual chicken and waffles can go together very well when done right. Then again I'm sure your idea of comfort food is very different than what you would find in soul/southern American cooking.
Was talking about the chips.

the correct term is "Freedom Fries", as determined by a xenophobic git that was mad at france for daring to not actively want war a bajillion dozen yrs ago

I didn't want to call them that, though... 'freedom' food makes me cringe. Also, I keep looking at your member profile, expecting your post count to be '?' as well.

bit mad at how few custom fields in this will allow "?" I must admit

I want three different ? signs, each growing more and more detailed as it goes from 64 to brawl

f'real: as someone studying canadian law, why the hell do you have criminal law as a state-by-state construct

why would you EVER DO THAT what is the reason btwn a murder meaning two completely different things depending on what side of a tiny border you are in

like ontario can eat texas up in terms of size but it still has the same criminal law as PEI because it should

Our criminal system isnt much better then thiers.

At least we don't allow cameras in court rooms so you cant "profit" off of crime, like you can in the U.S.

most of canada's legal + political systems are mostly best-known as "a bit less shit than america" tbh

like our worst kind of right-wing popular person is basically don cherry predicting that "left-wing nuts will feel ashamed when rob ford puts this city into success" not too long before that whole crack video thing

The stupiest thing about our politics right now is we have an "appointed" senate.....basically yes-men/women to the party in charge.

We should have an elected senate.

Project M: Social Discussion About How Big Of A Cock Stephen Harper Is

(dear america: can you take alberta from us. like we don't want them, they're kind of pricks who get mad at the idea that maybe messing up their land in the long run might not work, and I feel like texas and them would get along nicely)

Just convince everyone in Ontario to not vote for him next time, he will lose his power then.

And hopefully everyone else in Sask realizes how he ****ed over farmers, in a farming based province. And not give all 8 of our seats to him. >_<

I bet you have an iPad you freak
I get the joke because I remember you own one, let me get the conversation text file.. :awesome:
Nah I randomly made that my name for the account and I couldn't find a way to change it. My friend recently tried Melee on Dolphin on a i7 Mactop, ran at 40fps while my i3 $250 laptop runs it at 60. I think it's because the 3dsomething graphics drivers won't work for Mac, so I think his only option is to try and dual-boot a Windows partition (or virtualbox maybe) on it. Even my capture device I was thinking of bringing doesn't work for Mac, I don't know why people buy Apple.. or hate the light press air dodge. It works fine and it's way less hand straining what more do people want http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT_14QnL5Dc

And chips are, whatever we call 'French Fries', right?

...what are those supposed to be called, anyway...

Also 'good very super early morning'. Aren't you tired?
Yeah, we call French Fries "chips".

And nah I have a pretty nocturnal sleeping pattern atm, been hammering out tons of assignments this month.

That feel when you add new music and your fighting hard to it then it just goes bat**** and splices into Kirby 64's song.

Feels bad man.

I used to own one, I gave it up for a windows tablet, which I promptly installed windows 8 on
like or hate the OS, it's the only windows OS that can do touch properly and I want a tablet for more than just music/games/reading books/internetting all in forced formats
I mean I guess I could have jailbroken in but eh
hardware is perfect, probably lower quality than my old iPad but I give zero ****s, I like being in charge of my computing experience rather than have apple do it for me

Edit: Fortress I didn't see your question. I wouldn't buff Fox at all. I personally think he is better than Melee already. I think there is more hate in PMBR convos for directions that Brawl characters get taken towards rather than Melee character ports tbh haha.
Wtf. Don't say that. People will find out that pmbr is is trying to keep spacies on top.

I vaguely remember a long time ago you guys were "shooting" for Marth/Peach/Jiggs type of viability.

I don't think you guys ever stated making characters as good as the spacies(and sheik), that rumor just surfaced for no real reason.

pretty much lol

people like to take words of PMBR and spin them in fashions to create things that are microscopically barely based of the original statement.

Oh man. I'm totally impressed with how "on topic" this thread was in the absence of me/Eli

*Eyes Roll*

MK dittos? Doesn't sound fun. Count me out.
