Scar talks Lean Melee [2012YotF]

[halcyon.days]

Apparently I was incorrect, I apologize. I was unaware because I don't hear too many people complaining about Bowser nerfs (that's who has/had flame canceling, right?), since he isn't played for his battle aptitude to begin with. Thank you for pointing that out, I could have misinformed someone.

No, it was Roy. He has ph1r3 (it was even more intense when you could CANCEL it, no less) and was top tier in the first version of melee before it got upgraded to 1.2 (1.1?)

Spoiler

Sarcasm. OF COURSE IT'S BOWSER

Sarcasm. OF COURSE IT'S BOWSER

I was wrong once, I was in no hurry to be wrong again. Bowser is what I thought, but I decided to lean on the cautious side given the circumstances.

 

[DrewB008]

kirby still has it in all versions

 

[Scar]

I don't suppose there's a way to buffer dashes are there? And will buffering a jump by holding "up" (since pressing x or y while doing a gentleman is highly unfeasible), make me jc the gentleman?

buffer dashes? you're speaking jibberish, the isai gentleman can be canceled by anything, which means you can gentleman>dash, you can gentleman>jab, >jump, >fB, >shield, whatever you want

so technically yes you can jump cancel the gentleman but that's a silly name for it

 

[JonaDiaper]

can you like undo that, i wanted to use that account from now on
ban this one if you want, i wanted to start using that one

you skipped this

 

[Scar]

so yeah i banned that account as a joke thinking i could just like undo it, but it turns out i can't

which makes it even funnier for me but pretty lame for you

sorry bro

 

[metashinryu]

thats a good lesson *joking costs sometimes*


btw how is done that *isai gentleman* thing spoken some posts ago?

 

[Leviathan741]

Alright here is the deal. First of all what is the gentlemen manuever. no i am not a noob. I have learned to shuffle captain falcon's knees very well however scar I have a few questions for you. I like many other people want my captain falcon to be like yours and better (if that is possible,http://www.smashboards.com/images/smilies/smile.gif). Anyways first of all how in the hell do you uair twice and knee two times int he same jump like in both of your videos? Also is there any training or certain things I can do to get like ur captain falcon? I will tell you what I can do. Pretty much I can shffl ,meteor smash/cancel, wavedash, dash dance and i no its not all that special but that is why i cam to you for help. BTW ur awesome!

 

[Scar]

the gentleman: the jab combo WITHOUT the "toot toot toot toot" rapid A punches, just the jab jab knee hit

anyways isai/magus gentleman is this.

you press AAA as fast as you can, and hold the 3rd A

you MUST hit with the first jab for it to work 100% of the time in my experience. also you must FULLY RELEASE the A button for the first two jabs.

captainfalcon741, YOU ARE IN LUCK. i have recently decided to clean up the captain falcon boards by adding some matchup/stage guides, and i will also include a training guide so that everyone can practice tech skill in the same way i do.

i will also have a suggestions thread so that anyone can add interesting and inventive tech skill training vids/tips and throw their two cents in on stages and matchups

STAY TUNED and NEVER GIVE UP

melee will never die

p.s. bigD and I both agree that you need a new smashboards name

 

[Leviathan741]

Hey thanks man, i will await your tech skill guides. Also I have troulbe fighting marth with captain falcon and i was wondering what i can do to stop that ridiculously long cheating sword. Oh and the name...what do you think of scar 2? no jk.. but when you think u will have those guides up any clue? And what can I do with my captain falcon for now training wise? Also are you pro at the first smash with captin falcon?

 

[halcyon.days]

Speaking of that guide... what the hell are blastboxes?

 

[TheManaLord]

death zones

stage edges

 

[Brookman]

Can you guys post a detailed series of images of falcon's Down air hit box(es).?!?!?

It's AMAZING!

 

[Cia]

[JonaDiaper]

[metashinryu]

scar can u tell me what is the *tech skill* you said u were going to make a guide about it but i cant wait XD

 

[Leviathan741]

Hey scar if you could please critique my gameplay that would be great. I am going to post the link to a video of me playing with my captain falcon against ganondorf level 9 in 3 matches. Also anyone one else is welcome to critique it as well. In fact that would be great!

Thanks

 

[Mogwai]

I have some critique already

don't play level 9s.... ever.... -_-;

 

[Leviathan741]

Why and how so? What level should I play against and who with cf?

 

[chize]

9's make you get bad habits so stick to practicing tech and combos on lower levels if you dont have anyone to play with

WHaaaat the FFUUUUUDGE!!!

NO AR!?!?!
wooooooooooowzer

If you are unaware, "TAS" is a computer emulator, and that was a "perfect" run. So not AR, but definatly not human.

 

[TheManaLord]

okay guys i want tips on dk for serious. I know i can keep comboing once i get going, but how? this dk is really good at upbing me out of approaching with dairs and he punishes the rest, what do i do? grab? then what?

 

[philbobjoe]

I would guess Uthrow to either Nair or Uair, but I don't play DK's that often.

 

[DrewB008]

the trick to dk is to figure out exactly how limited he is and keep it in mind

youre way faster than him, he has a bad shield, and he cant really do anything to you unless hes facing away from you

so be patient, bait stuff, fly through with nairs, and go nuts if hes facing towards you

uthrow uair is ok, you can dthrow tech chase too. try to steal jumps after uthrows, thats pretty good

 

[Reaver197]

I know you can tech chase DK's out of uthrow and dthrow to fairly high percents.

Edit: nevermind, was beaten to the punch.

 

[EWC]

Pressure him hard with lots of dash dancing and spaced nairs. If he tries to go into the air get under him and **** him. Once you get a nair/grab/whatever, combo him until he's dead.

 

[Juke]

This is always a good option against any character: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCB31g4FUvY

 

[JonaDiaper]

loooooooooooooooooool

 

[Divinokage]

[toasty]

HAHAHAHAHAHA

this thread has the most ridiculous first post on any thread i've ever seen.

[Scar]

Yo Scar or Pakman, could you put up... Possibly Me vs Jman, Me vs Azen, or Me vs PC on youtube? please? =D

kage v azen MIGHT have been pakman's

[Mogwai]

wth, Kage vs. PC was definitely on the TV that you were recording on. was the tape not rollin' for that one? cause that would be a huge shame
