clean music, fun combos, and also those constant post-editing tilts are getting obnoxious as hell

like, it kind of looks alright at first but then you look at how much the HUD shakes around and aaaagh
I didn't watch it yet but yeah when he did that for his Marth video I was turned a bit off for that part, same with when I think they did that in AriqueNuubs I think. As someone who just went over creating horrible to decent combo videos for years the tilt thing is hard to not want when you feel the move lacks impact but there's always better effects even though it might not be as powerful.

Oh boy, yeah it's tilt world up in here

weird thought: what if you had two different recordings per clip, one showing nothing but the HUD in front of a greenscreen, and the other of a HUD-less gameplay actually happening

that might be overkill for a small-time video but that could work for people into that kind of thing, idk

Or maybe just disable the HUD, but overall I think tilts are a bad idea lol

My idea would be water/plasma (blue aura sphere) flow effects for the majority of the video that follow around the movement to help accomplish the same idea, and they flow through quickly in the black transitions to where Lucario starts in the next clip.

I loved the effect here for the Up-b transition https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA6PJVxK2rM#t=164

I also wanna use this effect sometime for a Smash video

I finally shook off the rust/got over being salty about myself and went to a weekly.
Other than a few specific things my play was about as crisp as it was before I took the break, its weird. The only things that I couldn't do consistantly anymore are instant ledge wavelands and shield drops. 17th out of 64 aint bad.
I got 5th place at our side-bracket event though, this week was low-tier singles. could have gotten 3rd or better but I just got tired and couldn't adapt to the yoshi MU.
I'm the best Melee GnW in AZ, Kappa


Have any of you guys experienced a feeling like you've gotten better at thinking about and playing after a break? I know its normal for things to be easier/more natural when you come back to them, but 3+weeks of no smash and there was no rust or hesistation, infact I could actually do shield pressure well and didn't drop a single SH approach the whole bracket. On top of that I felt like I was playing a lot smarter, and thinking faster, like I could plan and react in almost every MU (still not fast enough for the spacie dittos though >.>).
Its weird. Maybe all I needed to wake myself up was to just take a break.

when you get down to it, it makes sense. when you're not playing the game, the only thoughts you have on it are about little understandings of strategy, bits of the metagame that you need to think through and not simply play through

also it's 6am why in the hell am I still up. oh well might as well keep kickin about

There is something magical about staying up until 3:30am just watching jontron, youtube poops, and jontron youtube poops and just letting your mind slowly slip away into madness until the lawn gnome looks at you funny...yep bedtime now.

There are a couple other ones worth watching. I don't recall the name but there's this US guy who extends combos not with down B but with reverse neutral B charge cancel : either it hits and he can combo in place, or it doesn't and he just has to dash. Pretty interesting stuff.

This is gonna suck as per usual, at least the food is good though.

Anyone here going to BH4 and live in the area? Myself, @Professor Pro and Alpha Dash are in need of housing if so, and would greatly appreciate any offers. We fly into DTW on Thursday and leave on Tuesday, so any help for Thursday and/or Monday night would be amazing.

edit: just need Monday night now. =p

Why do players I like have to use Lucario? Gosh, I hate that character.
I don't like your new name, why'd you change it?

Lucario is cool

The video scared me Tink because it started playing and I didn't even click it and then I was wondering where it was coming from. It's evil music

I have that too the few times I go over there, and to a lesser extent I don't have much stuff to talk about with my closer side of the family too. Oh that reminds me, I need to buy some Smash related necklace so Smashers instantly know I play Smash and can tell me they play Smash so we can know each other plays Smash and Smash it out.

You never uploaded the video

Oh I know, I want a Fox/Falco's Shine necklace. If I want it hard enough it'll start existing.. or someone help me make one. Might have to visit one of those 3d plastic printing things. Oh, and if it was holographic too that'd kick super ass. When you'd rotate it the shine would grow and shrink, I could sell a million of those.

I'd attach a Melee disc to a lanyard and use that but Melee discs are precious. Maybe a Pendant of an image of a Melee disc

I would buy this maybe but it's sold https://www.etsy.com/listing/157950...Graph&utm_medium=PageTools&utm_campaign=Share

Maybe I can make one of these

lol wth is this? http://emfshield.com.au/
