we've had 14 year olds attend our tournaments before, it's not incredibly uncommon. if it makes your parents feel better they can come along too, or if you have any older brothers or cousins that they trust you with.

Massive meatriding :p lol

It's exactly as Leisha explained, I run the monthlies at my house to save on venue fees and to increase the pot winnings. I also run the quarterly bigger tournaments, the lansmash series which is held once a season (autumn, winter etc) at QSAC stadium.

If it makes you feel any better about coming to these BC25, there are othe people who attend that are your age, and we are all nice people. My little sister is 16 and she competes too :)

I expect a much bigger turn out at the next tournament I hold at my place too, so there will be a very big erray of skill levels. Plus, I may be interested in having an amatuer bracket as well as the regular bracket, or possibly making your first attendance free depending on how many come. Check out the Luigi's Dungeon thread under the Australian thread for more info on monthly tournies. I will announce the next one there this weekend :)
Oh i may enter the next one then. So just a question is there many Lucario mains? I may as well show them whos the best Lucario main :troll:

(Don't worry im not a troll if i make a smart remark like that ill put the troll face becuase i think its a funny face and i wont carry it on.

Its ok they wont come but ill wait 4 the next tourney becuase should get a job 1st hahaha. Trust me, im not the worried one lol its that

Metaknight, snake, diddy are the ones I see most. But it varies from different states.

But you'll probably always have a good few mk's and snakes in every state.

There are a few good Pit's in Victoria. Jezmo uses Pit, though I'm not sure if he's actually GOOD with Pit.

Jesmo's pit is good in a really gay way. Jei's Pit is better in every way and I now have first hand experience with it haha. I feel like I could move up to 2nd place on here if I keep improving. Jaice is still a stepping stone ahead from everyone at this stage atm so highly doubt I will be defeating little spacemen at this point of time :p

I look forward to the next tourney :)

After playing you for a bit on lag-fi, I think your Lucas and Yoshi need more work than your Pit and Lucario.

imo anyway.

No, we have a decent connection, but Wi-Fi lags anyway.

In general, technical stuff that involves precision is more difficult online which leads to silly SD's and what not.

But yeah. <3

BC25 plays Pit AND Yoshi.
I'm going to QLD just to meet the guy. Srs.

Jesmo, was your first tourney QBB? If so I was the one that knocked you out (many mirror shields on your upB recovery, I shouldn't gloat though, pretty much never beaten you since).

Cal is defs on his way up. Smash them nubs. You won't beat BC25 though. He uses the 2 best characters in the game.

Yes it was Jei. I was feeling pretty **** about it until I realised that you were some, super, special, awesome player.

Can't believe I used to use UPB to recover.... Dear oh dear. I still want a Pit ditto as well (even though I already know the results :( )

We have a Lucario main in QLD by the name of Emery. He is pretty decent when he turns up haha.

As for Diddy and Snake, I would expect their numbers to increase greatly in the next year. I personally wil be picking up one of the 2 once MK is banned for good.

Lol no one will pick up snake.

Marth/Diddy/wario/d3/falco are all better than him now, and theyre significantly easier to use.

Also, there's only a handful of snakes in aus...

:phone:

Snake - Arrow, Toki, Attila, Apollo, Nova, Corpse, Ted (to a lesser extent)

MK - Earl, Ad3pt, Ghost, Grim, Smoking Pup, Corpse, Toshi, Afro <(don't know if these guys play much anymore)

Diddy - Tibs, SD, Vyse...

Falco - Scoot

Marth - Toki, Shaya.

If I was a betting man, my money would be on Marth mains to reign supreme with MK gone. Just a stab in the dark really, oh and wait Toki is actually :random: now :troll:

I wanna pick up Snake as a main. imo I honestly don't think he's more technical than Falco or Diddy. Wario, Marth and Dedede maybe yeah.

I might pick Princess Martha up too.

Not technical, just hard to use at high level. He relies very heavily on a strict zoning game, and gets punished hard for dropping his zone even marginally.

Also, corpse dropped snake, and Ted/Apollo only muck around with him. And nova barely plays.

Afro's quit. +Dekar and to a minor extent myself for Marth, +Toshi and Ghostbone for Diddy and T-Rex for Falco.

Aerodrome for #1.

now that mk's gone he should be.

snake still has five losing matchups...

d3 has... one?
Falco, Ice Climbers, Olimar, Pikachu, Zero Suit Samus, Fox, Diddy Kong are definitely disadvantageous for Dedede.
Matchup chart says Pit and Zheik are as well. I think they're even, but Pit is frustrating as hell without ledgegrab limit.

Oh dear. I guess I'd probably still use him anyway.

Honestly, those dumb, gigantic hitboxes are a breath of fresh air to someone who uses Zelderp.

Actually, I would think of Snake as a much better Zelda, since they face the same problems.

Except Snake's about twice as heavy. And doesn't get outcamped by everything under the sun.

I think Zheik/Sheilda is overrated vs Dedede. Zelda still can't kill Dedede until 130% anyway. lawl

@BC25: I think your Lucario is decent. I think you use Counter a bit too often, and I think you need to stop randomly charging d-smashes and hope I run into them.

Basically, replace the random d-smashes and Counters with Aura Sphere spam, and work on your spacing, and you'll get heaps better.

My 2(hundred) cents.
