Road to Apex: Phoenix Saga: Part 6

[Ori_bro]

It's kind of a trade off. You get an easier way to land from banana landing traps, but I can use the platforms to reduce your approach options.



I hate playing on FD against everyone (except vs a ROB)

EDIT: Ori, you should change the stream banner to say Phoenix Saga 4 btw.

We aren't using Dakota's stream for this. So I'm going to make a new one in general. But thats not happening till I finish the layouts.

 

[Roller]

Random factoid: I am NEVER fighting Diddy on Battlefield, unless I'm playing as him lol. Plats make him soooo hard to approach.

dfjwejgnnrgwsnmgjkrdkgkg

I actually prefer BF vs Diddy.

Smashville is where he is just broken as ****. Seriously. He's stupid there vs anyone who can't platform camp effectively while avoiding bananas thrown up followed by aerials.

^ You're just a scrub lol. Zinoto hates Battlefield against me. He also happens to dislike playing on FD against me

lmao, he hates FD in general.

 

[Eddie G]

Chi, I fight Diddy with MK (such a fun matchup lol), and Smashville is my most comfortable stage against any matchup in the game. Marth has to work harder to land or establish momentum vs Diddy, and his general item control isn't as good as MK's.

I also dislike FD in general. It's so...bland and landing is such a pain in the *** against certain characters. Add the annoying lips at the edges to the equation and yeah...I can see why it's so frequently struck/banned.

 

[clowsui]

MK vs Diddy is a lot easier on BF imo than it is on SV. my win rate on BF vs zino is something like 30% as MK whereas on SV it's closer to 10%. if you think BF hinders you vs diddy you're not making very good use of the stage.

on BF MK gets to retreat for free, ledge trap diddy way easier than he could on SV, control more angles when he's being proactive due to platforms, approach from more angles if he has a read on diddy's camping...your comfort on SV might have to do w the fact that SV is probably one of MK's best stages in every other matchup but diddy

tbh FD isn't even that bad vs diddy. the only reason why you don't want to pick FD instead of SV is because MK on SV is better than he is on FD

also this is why I might do the Nope and start striking SV first. Everyone and their mom's favorite stage is SV

strong disagreement about item control w Marth v MK. they're about even

 

[Rayquaza07]

dang this is leik national size lvl now lol

will it be a 2 day event?

 

[Eddie G]

I can count on one hand the number of times I even allow a Diddy to set up camp in a match with MK. I am always IN HIS FACE and I'm a little more comfortable making that happen from a more neutral standpoint (SV over BF, basically) while having confidence in my item control. I control the platforms on BF just as well if need be (I play Peach and Marth for crying out loud lol, I thrive on plat control in general) but it's not my immediate preference vs the monkey or Falco.

Pressure pressure pressure is the answer vs Diddy, HYAHHHHHHH! xD

We now present:

The Phoenix Saga MU Discussion Thread.

 

[clowsui]

you didn't actually address any of my points but w/e works for you lol. bf and sv are pretty close/comparable in terms of which one is better for MK vs diddy anyways

 

[Eddie G]

There wasn't really anything that needed to be addressed or debated with, stage choice vs a character who can control both fairly well is more of a matter of preference than anything. So yeah...what you said lol.

 

[What's The Point]

We now present:

The Phoenix Saga MU Discussion Thread.

I took it more as adiscussuon on what stage people want to lose to Zinoto on.

 

[Ori_bro]

dang this is leik national size lvl now lol

will it be a 2 day event?

Rayquaza you better come damnit. This is a regional in your backyard basically. Also, this will be a 1 day event. With the level of good staff this will be done by midnight at the latest I'm guessing.


Also, WE NEED SETUPS!

BRING WIIS/TVs the whole 9 yards. If we want this eveng to be even greater than it is about to, Setups are our golden ticket to Wonka's Chocolate Factory men. I'm going to try and bring 3-4 lol. JTSM can probably bring 3-4 like he did at SPAU. So please be that awesome guy and bring a setup.

I'm also bringing Extension Cords/power strips like always.

 

[Xatic]

I have most of the stream stuff all settled out. I will be running a stream test in a few hours for anyone interested in taking a look at what I have done.

And you'll be out of the bracket by 8 so you won't have to worry.

 

[Juggleguy]

Haha, the venue's only open until 11pm, and Pierpont staff actually kicks you out, so you better revise those midnight ending plans Ori.

Time for the MI Brawl community to stop being spoiled by the unmonitored Mason Hall and to actually start cooperating, yay!

 

[Pimp Daddy Supreme]

wow people will actually get kicked out at 11?

i'm ready for a 32 way tie

 

[Ori_bro]

And you'll be out of the bracket by 8 so you won't have to worry.

Rage doesnt want to go to tourneys that go past midnight.

Thats good to know.

 

[JTsm]

I'll bring 1 set up and 3 extra TVs. I'll also bring a power strip and an extension cord.

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

Guess we'll be playing all of singles bracket in a car

 

[DRDN]

[Rayquaza07]

Look at the expected attendance. I'll give Ray maybe till 9 before he's out of the bracket. Won't matter when the tournament ends then.

 

[Rayquaza07]

[Rayquaza07]

[DRDN]

Make getting to the finals mean something and make it top 3 payout

 

[Rayquaza07]

there prob wont even be a top 3 prob will be a top 16 by the time pools ends lol

 

[Roller]

At PS3, I played my first bracket match at 11:30 PM. How the hell do you plan to finish by 11 at the next one which will be significantly bigger...

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

Im a fan of top 4

I think that payouts should end when you get to ties in placings.

 

[Rayquaza07]

which is why im glad i didnt go :C

 

[Juggleguy]

Why is everyone in MI Brawl resigned to the tourney going past 11pm?

MI Melee finished a 115-person tourney in one day by 11:30pm, no johns guys.

I'm just kind of disappointed in the attitude of all these recent posts...

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

I don't mind that, i just hate the super long wait in between finishing your pool, and bracket to start.

 

[Patches]

It's all good guys, we know how to run tournaments in Canada. We'll show you the way.

 

[Hot_ArmS]

Yeah meek showed us at ps3

 

[AllyKnight]

Canada is bad at running tournament. last tournament if it wasnt for me, **** would of finished at 3-4 am, thanks lord I was there to make 4 brackets run.

I look like a hater lmao

 

[ZTD | TECHnology]

We have a detailed plan for this and several additional folks working this. Chill people. We're gonna step it in in efficiency.

Canada is good at running them.


Tinman isn't.

 

[AllyKnight]

No one else hosts other than the Oakville team but they have low attendance. Didnt even finish the last tourney they did for the side event. o.O

 

[Eddie G]

I volunteer to be a pool captain. My pools are always one of the first to finish up.

 

[Seagull Joe]

As a person who yells at people to do their matches, I won't have a problem officiating pool stuff, reporting, and getting people to play their matches. If you need somebody to be the **** to unplug friendlies or MM's then I'm right here...

I'm also very knowledgeable about this game and am good at commentary. Not too humorous on commentary, but more knowledgeable then 99% of people lol.
