[QLD] Brisbane/Gold Coast Meets & Tournaments

[Remastered]

Tbh it doesn't feel as fluid as brawl does. It has been so long since we played it, and it looks and feels old & clunky. After we beat Vyse and Blade, we were like meh and went and ate lollies.

We are prob the only people in QLD who like brawl more than melee, but still that's just how we see it.

 

[Darkwing SykeDuk]

idk how a brain must work when they think brawl is fluid and melee is clunky >_>

 

[Aussierob123]

L cancelling makes melee more fluid than brawl, really. I feel like I have complete control over my character in melee, but not the same in brawl (I played alot of brawl back when it was new).

Probably just an experience difference.

 

[Remastered]

Yeh L cancelling is good, and that helps the movement. But playing fox on brawl (once you have learnt the character through completely) can do almost everything you can do in melee except wavedash and shine follow-ups. However now that there is more buffering and less traction, you can cancel all aerials in to boosted smashes with the right timing. You no longer have to crouch cancel to change movement or smash. Laser canceling is still just as viable. Illusion can be platform cancelled and edge cancelled. You can still shine into a lot of things, including out of aerials and buffer out of shield moves.

Not trying to say one is better than the other. I just prefer the movement and the interchange between characters on brawl when compared to melee. Now too there is a lot more character based techniques when compared to melee as well. Which means to be in the top precentile of the game, you have to know how most of them can effect your character in situations.

 

[Scrubs]

I think Matt is experiencing what is known as 'noob syndrome'

Just joking.

But Sakurai did say that melee was 'just too difficult' for the average person.

I think I would find melee clunky if I couldn't L-cancel, wavedash etc

However graphics or an outdated look aren't much of a concern in a fighting game

 

[Hotdog]

Yea, Melee without L canceling is very clunky, even I find Melee difficult and I CBF trying to get better. It's all just personal preference I guess, Matt's just used to the easy mode feel of Brawl. Friggin casual market breaking everything ._.

 

[Scrubs]

Yeah what I was trying to say was the level precision required for melee would get frustrating. Brawl is a lot more forgiving. However if you are used to melee brawl feels restricting you do not have as much freedom of movement

 

[Aussierob123]

yeah ben explains it well. There is definately much more character control and freedom in melee, but it requires experience/practice or whatever to get that comfortable with the game.

 

[Pantsmann]

i tried playing brawl, and was like OMG WAREZ MY OPSHUNS? WHY CAN'T I MOVE??? but then i decided to main ike and pretend that he's melee ganon. i think that brawl and melee are just different. brawl has more momentum conservation than melee does, but melee has more movement options. so somebody coming from one will always find the other more clunky. at least that's my hypothesis.

also ben, are you going to autumnsmash? if josh doesn't come (he's going to text me tmr probs about it) want to team again? best team in australia?

 

[Scrubs]

Yeah I'll be there and yep we can team also team with me for brawl j birds ez money

 

[Scrubs]

Also pub or bobs for world cup final Saturday night

 

[J-Birds]

Brawl you you mindgame and then punish to get in like 1 attack then it resets and you do it all over again, melee gives you so much more. Way more fulfilling, thats how i see it anyway.
I wasnt gonna enter brawl doubles.. though to be carried by Ben like he did with Chris might change my mind.

 

[Hotdog]

I'll be at LS around 2:30.

 

[seaDORF]

Yeah I'll be there and yep we can team also team with me for brawl j birds ez money

Jbirds is useless, i will neck him. As for you, i'll let zydron's ike clean you up.

 

[Pantsmann]

sweet! just landed myself the best melee doubles partner out there. that doubles money is basically ours :D

oh yeah, i'm going to need a brawl partner. i'm a melee player who uses ike. any takers? XD sounds like the worst possible teammate ever but whatevs, if nobody wants in i'll just play melee friendlies/commentate.

jburds is secksay <3 jbirds

 

[****ashi]

Me and you kaion, MM ganondorf v samus

Pirate ship I Dair you.

I would very much like Melee to run before Brawl so I can get more sleep in.

This thread makes me feel like I live in the wrong state.

 

[oldmanondorf_]

can anybody tell me when the **** brawl singles start? I'm not going to start work early for no reason.

 

[toki]

I DEMAND BRAWL TO RUN AFTER MELEE SO WE CAN SMASH TILL LATE



plz

This x10

Planning on a late night friday, so brawl doubles after lunch would be fantastic

 

[Vyse]

Edit: Also I received a mailout from you Vyse, and the dates etc on the poster are for Tpoo. Was there meant to be one sent out for this tourney instead?

Yeah, I got that too and I have no idea why. I'll have to beat up JB about it.

I want to start Brawl Doubles at about 12:30, so be there by then.

 

[Aussierob123]

I'm not going or anything, but I don't understand why you aren't just running one game at a time rather than swapping setups around?

 

[Vyse]

I'm not going or anything, but I don't understand why you aren't just running one game at a time rather than swapping setups around?

I guess if people really want Melee Doubles - Melee Singles - Brawl Doubles - Brawl Singles we could do it that way.

Is that fine with people?

 

[J-Birds]

That is what i want
Rob come
Melee will be done quick you can study after

 

[Pantsmann]

that's fine by me. doesn't really matter imo. people are just being fussy.

 

[Vyse]

that's fine by me. doesn't really matter imo. people are just being fussy.

Yeah I know.

Sorry I haven't been on top of this more. Hard to fit it in when people at work are like 'Cover my late duty kthnx'.

-_-

9:30PM and I need to get to sleep.

Hopefully I find out about the house tomorrow. The application's processed and sitting with the owners.

Driving exam in 8 days.

Could set aside a TV for early in the day for a lol Brawl side event while things happen.

 

[oldmanondorf_]

I'll just text someone on the day

 

[Aussierob123]

I just think melee will have a pretty low attendance this time, may aswell give the brawlers what they want.

Sorry j-birds i wish i could come but i don't wanna get owned by my exams, I'd use up an extra 2 hours just getting there and back.

Really wish I could go though, that is why I want a PoS asap after this loool. I'm super keen to work on my ****ty smash skills.

Edit: lol I'm watching zeus try to edit his post to make the image work in real-time. too funny.

 

[oldmanondorf_]

lol

 

[Aussierob123]

lmao nice response.

oldman buy black ops on ps3.

Edit: the more i look at that ****ing picture the funnier it gets looool.

 

[oldmanondorf_]

eh COD, my housemate has blops but it seems like such a generic game to play.. plus I'm pretty bad at FPS, all the shooters I've played recently have been 3rd person.

 

[Aussierob123]

If you are any sort of a decent gamer you can easily get good at blops within a few hours lol. The game is too easy.

Guess i should get mvc3, everyone is playin it...

 

[oldmanondorf_]

yeah........ housemate has that as well, I've played half an hour lol was planning on playing borderlands co-op with my housemates when I 100% dead space. I'll give blops a go on the side.

 

[Pantsmann]

rob, you should get blazblue. then you can play with the cool kids like me and hugh.

also should i book PoS for 16th of april? if i do book it for 16th i'll have to cut it short to 4pm (or start it earlier if we want the same number of hours) because i'm due in toowoomba afterwards.

when does uni midsem break happen? i should know but it's late and i've forgotten

 

[seaDORF]

Good friday i'm pretty sure, like the 22nd of April

 

[Aussierob123]

16th would prob work for me... maybe...

gf has an exam that day. hard to predict what reaction I'll get.

women.

**** it I'll come anyway.

 

[J-Birds]

Yeah 16th is good

 

[CaLibUr_1337]

**** it I'll come anyway.

Smash > women

lololol

Hey Dif, reckon I could get a ride when you head back to toowoomba? XD

 

[Hotdog]

Don't get Blazblue, then you'll be forever alone.

 

[Vyse]

Hey oldman, if I get the house can you help me move a couple of large items?

Probs a fridge + washing machine.

There'll be alcohol involved.

There'd be alcohol involved anyway, but yeah :X

 

[Pantsmann]

would 23rd be better for people?
i have the 23rd on my calendar for when i planned to book the next one, but if people want me to change that i can.

cal, where do you want a ride to? O_o toowoomba is southwest of brisbane...

everybody loves blazblue. actually nobody plays blazblue =[ cept me and hugh and some random asian kid we found (but we're teaching people! =D) eventually there might be a scene.
