Use it to announce your quitting Brawl and never coming back.

I'd hate you if this wasn't so clever.
GAIZ! Olimar chat, just got back from a tournament and I have stuff to talk about.
Also, I just had like a bajillion energy drinks, so I might not sleep for DAYS!
I'm excited to hear about these things.


But I'm even more excited about how the tournament went! I got 17th out of 38, which isn't GREAT, but I did SO much better than I did in my last tourneys - I actually won against people who know how to play! :laugh: The people I beat were The Composer, The Keist, and Auspher

The Composer went Wario against me, and I have to say this now: THANK GOD FOR USMASH OOS!!!!! It's just TOO good, and it made that mu so much easier ^_^ It still went 2-1, but I had some pretty sexy moments: one time when we were both grounded, he farted at the same time I yellow Usmashed - I remained untouched and he went flying :D However, my personal favorite came before that: I had knocked him off stage and he had just started to recover with the bike. I predicted his movement, lined up the shot, and killed him with a purple tether the instant he jumped off the bike, LITERALLY into tether :laugh: Probably the most satisfying kill I had during the whole tourney.

Keist normally plays DDD, so of course he went MK against me. He won game one (I forget where), I won game two (on Delfino), and then he counterpicks me to PTAD. Want to know the best part? He killed himself twice with the cars :chuckle: (Though I also lost a stock to them when they came with little warning :()The stage actually isn't as bad as I thought it would be; I only had to rely on the road to recover once.

Auspher (Wolf) was definitely a happy moment for me. I'd played him in pools and lost 2-1, mostly because I couldn't deal with that friggin blaster. However, just towards the end of our sets, I discovered that I could outspam blaster with pikmin throw :) Not sure if that's a good tactic, but it worked lol, it got me through Game One quite well. Game Two he took me to Norfair and I spent the rest of the set grabbing him through the platforms with some usoos to kill :D

And then there were the matches I lost, YBM in winners and Silhouette in losers. YBM three stocked me game one in 57 seconds :crying: I gave him a better run Game Two, but he still two stocked me. So good >.< And Silhouette's a ROB who's great with the gyro; apparently the main reason I lost is because I dodge rolled too much instead of pivot grabbing him when he approached; it's a problem I have a lot, and I guess it REALLY hurt me this time :(

I also played a ****load of friendlies, and I consider many of those the real victory here. My main goal was to get more irl experience and improve my game, and I can definitely say my performance this weekend was a great improvement over where I used to be. Plus I got to meet a lot of cool people like Hilt (too awesome and MAD helpful), Squid (hilarity in human form), Composer, Moose, Crow, and I got to get to know my NEOH brethren better at the same time. All in all, this tourney was pretty much the best thing I've done all summer :grin:

If anyone actually takes the time to read all that, thanks lol

edit:
@Greward: OLD. :)

And happy belated Rich!

Excellent post bob lol

Thanks for the Bday wishes guys =)

Some stuff from my tournament yesterday:

For some reason I was spiking the **** out of people. I have no explanation for this. I've never really gone for spikes at any point in my smash career, and it's not like I've even been practicing them. I just typically don't spike people. But I was getting the most RIDICULOUS spikes yesterday. At one point in doubles it was 2v1 me vs havok and tearbear. I had 1 stock mid%, tearbear had 1 stock mid %, and havok had 2 stocks high %. I killed havok, and then tearbear ran to the edge just to play it safe and started planking. Without even thinking I just ran off stage and spiked him and he died, and I barely made it back. By that point though I was at a really high % and Havok eventually killed me, but it was still sick haha

Castle Siege gimp which I stole from Brian H (so cal Oli who's pretty good and has taught me a lot of stuff): If you manage to get the grab close to the walkoff on the 2nd part of the stage, for some reason EVERY SINGLE PERSON jump right after, so just jump and upB to hit them. I actually got this on Havok yesterday.

Did I mention I was spiking the **** out of people?

Also, for those of you who know who Nexus is: I beat him in a $5$ (which side does the dollar side go on? they both looked awkward to me just now and I felt the need to make it symmetrical) MM Rob ditto, and prior to the match he agreed that whoever won was the best ROB on the WC, since he claims he's the best ROB on the WC hahaha. He recorded it but idk if he'll post it. He then MMed my Oli and I spiked him. I think maybe what got me in my spiking mood is that there's a video of me vs nexus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msSu6a80WDI) where I double spike him at the end, and since he was recording our set yesterday I was inspired to get another spike similar to that, which I did. So that mighta been it.

I'm gonna get a little extra training with Larry Fiction and typh this week to fine-tune a couple things and then I'll be ready for Raleigh :D

I posted results and more thoughts in the tournament results thread (http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=242829&page=18) go now and read that gogogo

Vocal: YBM is really good against Oli so don't feel too bad haha. Glad it went well for you!

The plot of the television show "Avatar, the Last airbender" centers around a young boy-- I can't remember his name, but it begins with A-- in his journey to travel the world and master the elements. Mastering these elements usually involves a fight with some sort of master of their respective element. The boy is not alone in his journey however: he is joined by a girl who specializes in the element of water and a youth who, while putting on a show of being mature, tends to fall easily to women, along with his fuzzy animal companions.

Their journey is not without challenges, however: As the group travels the world the often find themselves in the middle of a city's conflict, and need to find a peaceful resolution to their problem before continuing on their way. In addition to that, there is an organization which is constantly attempting to capture them that also has plans for conquering the entire world. To conquer the challenges ahead of him, He must become a pokemon master while learning valuables lessons of trust and friendship, and can depend on his friends to help him if he is in need.

Well you have to have expected that from me posting in the poke center for half a year already and me being a competitive battler :p

Edit: funny story, I actually got the idea of picking up oli after watching brood vs m2k at Apex XD

These boards have been so slow lately. >.<
Of course they have, I haven't been here :D

Oh yea...and I GUESS it might have something to do with Hilt also being at the tournament. And Fino just not being here for some reason. And Echo not posting (goo) to random things. But mostly me :)

We know. You're not alone >.>
Even if we do resent bandwagoners, I'm generally a very nice guy, and I couldn't be so crude with a clear conscience. If you don't know already, Olimar is nowhere near a piece of cake to play. You'll have to get in the habit of constantly watching your line, train yourself to stay grounded many times (I say this since you're a Kirby), and recovering in and of itself is going to take quite a while to learn to do properly. That said, welcome the boards and good luck.

(I should copy that; this is like the fifth time I've typed that out :laugh:)

Is it just me or are there a lot of new recruits today? *Looks at new combo thread* Nope, not just me :lick: I think people might be creating alternate accounts in order to not look like bandwagoners. Maybe I just think too much into stuff.

And now, some Youtube Poop!

edit: @Turaz: :laugh:

And the lack of parallel structure in that list I just gave is bothering me, but not enough to fix it...

This is basically what should be posted in the first page of the thread.

"Beware Oli is not Meta Knight"

Also, welcome to the boards.

I don't mind the bandwagoners and people that pick up Olimar because of Brood. I just have little faith in most of them sticking to him.

@Hilt: You're right, I'm just bitter that it wasn't an American Olimar that brought us bandwagoners :(

@BSL: Read DW - Captain Olimar commands you.

@Tofer: Give yourself some credit - it was at least three days :)

It might have been three days

All I know is that it was shortly before Brood *****.
And THAT'S why you're my favorite new guy

So, I discovered that I like Norfair - grabbing people through platforms is fun :) Oh yea - and Usmash chaining on Luigi's is broken XD

edit: Clover! I missed your posts most of all :)
