B-But it wasn't a local.
I got 33rd. Lost to Illmatic in Winners and then Logic in Losers. All extremely close matches that could have gone either way. Last stock, high percent. No SDs or scrubbish mistakes. Just got outplayed by the better players.
I'm proud of what I did and how I did. All Sonic, went head to head with Broly for the 3rd seed spot and 2-0'd him. Took a game from Seibrik and then got owned the other two games for teaching me what happens when a defensive MK plays against an aggressive Sonic. It was an awesome lesson and I was hoping to use the knowledge against him if we faced in bracket. Guess that wasn't the case. Oh well! I burnt out so bad after the Singles bracket though, egads... XD I'll talk of more stuff later or when I'm home.
Thanks for the support, guys. And Kinzer, what did you mean by proving papa didn't make a mistake or something? I'm confussled. o.o
Oh, and for those that were in my pool, I'll remember them all later, but I had,
- Seibrik
- Player-4
- Broly
- Infinity
- Mike2
- Konfucious
- Some Diddy random I think??
- Some Pikachu/Link user
- Flamesomethingsomething a Lucario player I feel like a jerk for forgetting his name still.But he had a tag called "Trap" or something. He owned me 2-1. XD
I didn't play Trela unfortunately. No excuses from me other then being shy and not making the time I should have for it. But I do agree anyway. That match-up blows HARD. LOL

Head to head with Broly?
Legendary super saiyan vs legendary super sonic.
Too bad sonic sucks too much to ever make a match as entertaining as dbz, save for espy aand muhsoce.

1. was that one pool? wtf? how you gon make a 10 man pool and say top 3 get out, thats stupid.
2. was it one round of pools or 2?
3. the lucario was flamewaveK, apparently dudes think he looks like an attractive female (id like to get your thoughts on this firsthand, because i disagree vehemently) thus the 'trap' tag.
cloud is now exempt from my bad sonic challenge. top sonics are espy, X, me, cloud, AND THAN nobody else matters, and you wont place higher than 13th. Except for Arikie, because that kid is awesome. and d1aos, because we all know sova is free.

1) Yes, that was one pool. Pools were kinda odd. Some had 7 (mine), while others had 8, 9, or in Kuraudo's case, 10 players. In all of them, only top three advanced to the bracket, which sounds kinda ridiculous.
2) Just one round of pools. 48 players advanced to a double elimination bracket which gave the 1st seed players byes in the first round.
3) Yeah, it was FlameWaveK. Didn't talk to him too much, but he seemed like a pretty cool guy.

I was gonna answer KID, but Espy did it for me. I got caught up playing MvC3 on the pad. Z-Buster combos are a pain to do.

He finally beat sky, but he used pika games 1&2, sonic game 3.

You know what? Forget I said anything, I'm a *******.
You only say that because you're already aware that Flamey's a cross-dresser. It's not in the agenda of most traps to tell you what they really are, and if you met them in person you'd have a much more difficult time knowing your real sexual preference.
I love that guy/gal/it/potato (no homo/all homo/no bestiality/potatoes are too bland for my taste), pretty chill thing.
Do you two talk via text or IM? How do you keep tabs/get updates from him?
Speak of the devil...
Been a while Arikie; hope you've been doing well for yourself.
Sun chips da bess.
Speaking of da bess, nothing is more frustrating to me than knowing the solution to a problem but for whatever reason; be it through my own physical inability, mental ignorance, or overestimated intelligence, cannot reach it. I'm going to tape a sticky note on my forehead next tournament I go to so I won't forget the simple "Stop approaching so much you idiot." tactic.
Uh hello?
I can't wait till I can actually attend a large tournament so I can get out of this nobody status

I'm going to try to be more active around the boards now.

So I just watched a vids of Espy vs an Olimar D@*** from about a week ago....
About that S-hop Bair 2 Neatral A combo Espy was doing
When he kept reseting was he still holding A or did he keep pressing A?

It'd help if you could give a video link; but if I can take a shot in the dark.
You're referring to combat walking?
That' usually done if the second jab doesn't connect after the first one, though it can also happen when it does. If that's the case, you have to hit down on the D-Pad very quickly and reset the stick to neutral position while still holding A? I may not have it down 100%, I'm sure you can ask any respectable Ike player and they'd know the mechanics down to a science.
It's also really only good for Ike just because he gets some nice numbers out of it. Sonic' combat walk is pretty bad for the most part, it's usually better to finish the combo unless you've conditioned the opponent.

to combat walk, all you have to do is hold the a button and have an opponent with cruddy sdi.

Infact, it might even remind your opponents not to approach as they might happen to glance at the sticky note and be reminded because of the note not approach, which wouldn't be good for you

in your 4th match vs that Zss. when you both were on your last stock you had a percentage lead. You should've just stayed patient with that spin charge u had. The Zss would've eventually had to come after you then you could've released it. IMO you would've won had you just not had gotten impatient for that kill.

Hmm. Rags and I have similar playstyles. The thing is, I'm a little more defensive and use more bair, whereas he rushes down more and uses more grabs. Neither is really better or worse than the other. It's probably more region dependent; I live and play in the metaknight capitol of the world where everyone develops a slightly campier playstyle save for maybe nairo, whereas he lives in a region that probably allowed him to develop a more aggro playstyle overall.

Espy 25th, Cloud 33rd (?). Could have been better, could have been worse (cough, pound5).
Anyone know of a good place to grind level-37 Ice-type in Pokemon Black? It's just a tad too weak to not get oneshotted by the next gym's pokemon (which it could probably oneshot if it got the chance to move...-Spd nature FTL)...

My problem is that I approach recklessly. Of course if I still want to apply some pressure I should be far enough away from my opponent so that I can't get punished immediately, but not so far away that the only sort of mental pressure is the clock; and that's only assuming I have the lead.
That, among other factors, which I should definitely take into consideration.
I'll get better at this. I've only been around for three years and I'm still nowhere near where I want to be, but I've certainly made some progress.

Which ice type? Cryogonal? Cuz he has like no physical defense and you'll get one shotted by a physical move even if you level him up more lol. Unless you get the first hit, which is possible cuz he's kinda fast. Then it'd be worth it, especially because he has an ok special attack stat

Vanillite line. Don't worry, problem resolved anyway. (He's getting replaced as soon as I catch Reshi. Srsly. Bad pogey is bad.)
