this.

go nuts on lvl 1 fox w/ falco. practice sheik/fox tech skill consistency.
yeah my recent routine is 15mins of fox vs. falco, then falco dittos, then marth on falco then marth on falcon. i practice on battlefield yoshis and stadium. unless its marth vs. falco which i do on FD to do weird combos (alternate fair/bair hitbox combos)

i think you meant you've practiced for an hour total
then you messed around for the other hour
I lol'd for real on that one


I used to practice random tech skill and flatland infinte things with fox, but I haven't plugged my Wii in since the last tourney I went to. I used to practice like 3 times a week, but it didn't help at all and I have enough tech skill already to do what is needed with sheik.

I usually play against lvl 3 Fox (because lvl 3 tend to have the most realistic DI) on BF. I find BF to be one of the better stages to practice on because it is pretty, has nice leveled platforms to practice different tech skills with (e.g. Isai drop, shield drop, wavelands, platform cancels, etc.), and just the right size (not too big, not too small).

This is how I mainly practice.

I sometimes switch to FD to practice my chain throwing or I switch to other [gay] CP's that work against Peach to learn those stages better (I don't do this enough though..). I also alternate against the characters I play against but it's usually Fox.

I never practice tech skill, DI, set ups or combos outside of real matches because I get bored as ****. I only practice smash when I have an opponent to play against.

To answer the question..

I practice. I practiced a lot today, for over three hours, and that's probably gonna become fairly standard. Whenever I have free time I'm gonna practice a LOT more. Tech skill all day long. So fun

I am learning Fox illusion ledge cancels. So much fun, thank you Lovage and Eggz <3333

I hate <3's
If you wanna call a guy a ***** call him a *****
it's late but
sometimes a guy is cool but he does something that isn't

so you call him out on it but that doesn't make him a *****, he's still a cool guy
not like you're gonna hate him for it, but you're letting him know he's outta line

it's hard for some people to make that statement simply
so they just put <3
and people kinda get it

No you don't.
Man for real, for me sheik is the hardest to play consistently at the current metagame

Linking together fox trots, auto canceled aerials and needles, all while maintaining proper spacing, mixing up ground/aerial/grab approaches etc. ****'s exhausting. definitely hard mode. I love sheik.

NEW QUESTION!

What do you feel is your biggest accomplishment at a tournament? (This includes tournament events like singles and double, and after tournament events like crew battles and MM)

Lazy people rejoice.

Hm
I'd say one of the following:
Winning a tournament set at my first tournament [In Pools at MLG Anaheim, against "Dino" I believe]
Winning my second tournament set a year later [Against "Tim" random ICs player at an NCB]
Falcon punching Isai in SSB64 [at Zhu's tourney #1]
Beating Naota in a Money Match [before losing to him in the next two]

my biggest accomplishment was probably getting power ranked or.... taking Zhu to 5th round last Saturday because I used gay Peach counterpicks :D
