Help the smash group I meet with every Thursday is slowly switching from PM to Melee because one guy there dominates everyone with zelda in pm and they get incredibly mad over it

Worst part is I can tell them what they need to do against her (basically just wait for her to use a move then punish her for it) but they think it's dumb that the solution to beating a character is to wait them out. They believe me because I can beat the zelda player pretty handily by doing what I tell them, and the games are still rather quick(less than 4 mins) but they still are like "upsmash is so dumb its a multi hit move that comboes into itself and you cant smash di out of!!!" and they don't seem to listen when I say it does about the same damage as every other smash attack in the game...

I don't really have a problem with Melee(well actually I do, it's the fact that I dislike how strict the analog detection is and that there's no way to turn off tap jump and that there's like 4 stages to play on competitively) but switching to Melee simply because of a zelda, of all characters, is some dumb ****.

Tap jump is so useful though. I do agree with the dash sensitivity in Melee though. Also shied dropping is mad hard.

Also pick Sheik and dthrow tech chase them until they switch back :^)

The analog sensitivity ****s with me so hard that I can't do much in melee. I could do that but it requires me taking time out of my day to practice moving in that game specifically. Although I did do that last week when we played melee, it works but when you can't connect moves together or defend yourself through movement winning is kinda hard

My struggle. I wish pm's sensitivity was a little bit closer to melee's. Only tiny bit.
I'm thinking about taking at least 15 minutes a day to practice movement in one smash game a day and cycle through them (one day melee, next day pm, next brawl then back to melee). But idk how long I'll keep that up.
I was ****ing there for this, omg it was hilarious

I don't really have the sensitivity issue, but that's probably because I smash the **** out of my analog sticks all the time.

Or just pressing buttons hard in general. It took me a long time to be able to tilt just because I was so used to hitting everything so hard.

Yesterday I played Melee for about 4 or so hours total, and I was playing really well, but I was way too aggressive with hitting my jump button. I didn't miss anything, but since I claw to Y with my index finger, the side of my top knuckle almost developed a blister. I actually had to stop playing because I could feel it forming.

I'm not sure if the deadzones differences also are present for jumping inputs in the stick but one of the major things holding me back from playing Melee frequently is my hybrid use of both the jump button and tap jump for all of my techiques (tap jump for full hop, wavedash etc, jump button for short hop out of a run, ledge dash and so on...)

LMAO. They should be thankful it wasn't 3.02 Zelda at least I would collect their tears and make a giant pitcher of lemonade to satisfy me tor a week.

That's part of my reason as to being difficult for me to go back to melee but it's more of pivot grabs and RAR and b reverses.

Be me
take ceramics 1st semester
spend like 30$ to buy clay and ****
be broke but ultimately enjoy making pottery
ask if you can make a cup
"only if it has 4 additional features"
ms. west why I just wanna make a cup
like holy **** let me life I paid 30 bucks like everyone else
let me make my cup
"it'll get you a C"
what if the cup has 4 handles
"...what"
and each handle is of a unique size
"I mean... technically-"
*starts wedging clay*

over the course of a week
pour heart and soul into cup
make sure each handle is sturdy
smooth over any bumps with a damp sponge
let the cup dry
paint that *****
tenderly place it into the kiln

the next day
large crowd in ceramics class
everyone gathered around the kiln
shattered pottery everywhere
apparently somebody's clay was poorly wedged
and as a result went full hiroshima in the oven
taking out like 5 other projects
>>>INCLUDING MY CUP<<<<
cup destroyed
have to make up work afterschool
too broke to afford to go to dropzone this saturday
main controller is broken anyways

We'll get the launch angles when we get cancelable grounded up b on Mario/Doc.
IE:The same day gimr get's our vods up. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Edit: I found another Pursuit-Cornered remix to shamelessly force into my build. The tradition must be rekindled.

Takes like 5 mins to get used to melee throws. It's not exactly difficult to go straight up/down.

the deadzones on throws in PM are far too large. nana's not supposed to jump before i up throw or crouch before i down throw. i can't do dthrow followups platforms because nana falls through in PM, and the fact that she always jumps during an up throw means you lose stuff like up throw > reverse fsmash or up throw > up tilt. you have the choice to make her jump/crouch or do a standing followup in melee based on how far you push the stick . . .

Shut up nerdo. How can you expect to win if you're going up against the Bruno Sammartino of Brawl/PM?

When I saw "never give up", I was honestly expecting John Cena.

What pisses me off about Melee is the throw input map
Why is that **** so narrow

well, for me, i always figured you never use mario's down b for anything besides recovery. why not let it have a really awkward knockback angle so you can do ultimate shame mindgames and make people feel bad when they get caught by it?

don't change the other aspects, just the goofy melee doc kb angle/power : p

You guys willing to house for the PM 1k, tonight and maybe tomorrow night? It's my two brothers and I. Could use oracle's place but if I can avoid my brothers having to sleep on the floor that'd be a better option
