Read this thread http://smashboards.com/threads/post-too-big-good-for-threads.364992/
Let your pea-sized brains be squashed under the theory porn.
The reaction gifs were useful to cop, yes.

And now for something completely different.
Episode 1.
So anyone got tips to not be so silly in neutral?
Learn how to effectively space/not overcommit to moves, block consistently/well, and play with people who aren't doing this:

and thathave a rational gameplan past "throw fireballs/scrubby reversals -> win, unless the other player knows and or is better, then get absolutely demolished".
Which I can help with.
You on XBL, or PSN?

PSN. BTW I fixed the vertical squishing on the video. 'twas the PS3.

Is there a reliable way to improve my block consistency?
I feel like trying to do so with the computers will cause me to develop bad habits a la smash.

Who's going to The Big House 4? Bryonato, Professor Pro, Jolteon, Strong Bad, Hylian, Theytah, Monk, and I are going. Nanobuds is potentially going as well I think. Meet up with a ton of the br here along with enjoying a fantastic Juggleguy tourney!

Lots of practice, and knowing what hits high or low by subconscious at high levels.
Also, you don't have the time to think "Is that move high, or low?" and act accordingly, not in fighting games, you'll have eaten the mixup before you can.
Gotta play more, and know the setups too.

@ Eternal Yoshi Eternal Yoshi If your opponent's attacking in the air, block high. If they're attacking on the ground, you block low. The exception is overheads, which are ground attacks that must be blocked high, like Akuma's Forward-M.

There's a lot more factors going on in Marvel though (which is why I generally don't recommend people start out with it), but for 2D fighters that's basically what it comes down to.

I don't play Marvel anymore, but I can say your team has a bit of questionable synergy. Tasky's not that great on point. He's not that mobile, his mixup is lacking so it's hard for him to open people up, and his keepaway, while solid, isn't as good some of the better zoners in the game. Also, his assists and DHC's are pretty good, so they kind of go to waste when he sits on point.

Frank is just not worth using unless you plan to sufficiently level him. Shopping Cart assist is great, but Lv 4 or 5 Frank is one of the best characters in the game, so you usually build the team around helping him reach that level, rather than the other way around. Most teams with Frank involve scoring a combo with a lot of hits with a point character (usually Dante), empty DHC'ing to Frank and then taking the snap shot straight to level 4.

Ammy as an anchor is fine. She's fast as hell and strong as hell with X-factor, has a good assist, and will have quite a lot of meter sitting in the back. But I don't see how Frank or Ammy's assists benefit Taskmaster. Again, his mixup is bad, so he can't really take advantage of these lockdown assists.

From the Hylian vs Strongbad Drunk Iron Man Crew Battle:



After Hylian counter-picked Roy to beat SB's G&W... then when SB CP'd DK and Hylian was like... "oh, I forgot you have a DK" then SB rocked his world

And then SB's Wario proceeded to lose to Hylian's Fox.

I was really focused on the transparent face. :L Don't make fun of my intellectual ability, that hurts deep man.
------

I have to make flashcards with pictures for spanish, and one of the cards I made was for deber, meaning 'must' or 'to owe'.
I drew the one ring falling into the lava, and labeled all the things I drew so the teacher could maybe pick up on what I was trying to represent. That made the whole thing feel stupid to me, so I just drew Gandalf kinda just floating over the lava and labeled it, "gandalf a proud mother".

Should I change his name to gannon dalf?

Edit:*eagerly awaits responses instead of doing homework*

Earlier, the software for my media mouse started dragging my volume down automatically, so I restarted and that seemed to fix it, except now my volume down button doesn't do anything at all. Life is hard.

First world problems, I know how you feel, but consider my problems for a second.

Where am I going to put phallic symbolism in my LotR vocab card?
Edit: Problem solved, I gave gannondalf a small crotch bulge. Next I'm gonna get away with murder.
Edit2: Added "LotR OST in the background" with small musical notes to both sides.

Went to a tournament yesterday and went 1-2 vs. ESAM and not terrible G&W with my partner Windfish/Sonicraft. Game 2 was so close :c


Still need to iron man money match ESAM. Another tournament in my area soon pls.

Edit - Also events were running late so I didn't get to do singles. Smash tournaments be running overtime all day.
