You guys also need to respect that Trela is also an amazing player with a very tricky character with alot of feints with much greater rewards. On smaller stages, its alot harder to even avoid him, especially when he reaches percents where he can kill you with weak hit sex kick aerials. and do massive shield damage and kill with grabs.

Who says I'm not respecting this? Trela is a monster. But these two have played so much and it's painfully apparent that Espy is capable of beating him solidly. He just needs to minimize the amount of unnecessary passive damage he's eating.

 

[Espy Rose]

It's really difficult to micromanage when I should go in and when I shouldn't when the other character straight up beats mine no matter if I'm aggressive or passive.

 

[True Blue]

Lucario is just a BULLY! lol

 

[BSP]

Nah, he just gets rewarded for losing

 

[Espy Rose]

Not for losing. For getting outplayed.
He wins if he's getting outplayed.

Doesn't that just sound hilarious?

 

[True Blue]

Yea lol. My friend always told me that he wasn't sure if anyone he played against with Lucario was actually good or not because of the factor Lucario gets better when he is losing lol.

 

[WedginatorX]

I hear if you knock his glasses off he gains a speed and damage boost.

 

[Tesh]

What I find dumb about Aura is that the way percent is factored in is so dumb. If he is at 1 stock and you are at 2 then yes he is "losing" and he can get a buff. But if he is at 150% and you are at 150% on the same stock, why does he get a buff? He isn't losing!!

Thats really what makes him so dumb. When you both reach kill percents, 90% of his moveset kills or sets up for kills too well.

 

[BSP]

I think it's if he's at a "disadvantage", and high % would be one since he can (or at least he should >_>) die easily.

Does this sound like Sonic music to anyone else? It just feels like it to me. I can just imagine running through stardust speedway with this playing.

[Mr. Johan]

The Lucario in Brawl must have Steadfast. For all the times Sonic fakes him out in a set, it's no wonder he goes so fast from the speed boosts due to flinching.

In all honesty the only reason you lose is Cause you kill urself or you dont miCro manage enough. Just play patient...

 

[Espy Rose]

And I completely disagree.

 

[JMan8891]

True Blue: your shoutout was posted in the FL thread, for your whole community to see, not just us Sonic players. MAD respect.

Anyway, went to a naval ship yard, then an air national guard base. Got a new ID. Got a new cred card expedited to me. Last week of vacation in NH has gone pretty smooth

 

[True Blue]

Man ****! the FL thread. Lol. I don't go into that ****. I only go in the Sonic Forums and Tournament Forums lol.

 

[B_AWAL]

LMAO!!!!!

 

[JMan8891]

Ay.... I made the post, all I will say about that . Also, once I figure out if the Illinois DMV will mail me a license (nope), or I get a new one for SD (ewww), and can drive, i'm buying your gift. So i'll txt u in a few days for a mailing address

What? A gift? You don't need to lol.

 

[JMan8891]

I know, but random wee early hrs drives and not a single complaint deserves some reciprication man.

 

[KirbyandSonicrock14]

kid got 3-0 by a guy that plays a marvel team and dominated the scene for a while even though he didn't own the game?

 

[da K.I.D.]

It sucks cus i play almost the exact same team as him too...

 

[JMan8891]

So I was wondering...

What do most of you do to practice. Playing in FL and then consistently being angry with my placing when I travel really forced me to realize: ppl who aren't familiar with the Sonic MU and are decent, will get *****. Play ppl proficient in the MU, who play a LOT, and there is the wall. Not having played since 09 and playing True Blue/Ryo made me see so many glaring holes in my game that really frustrated me. Anything that takes some finger precision was flubbed...

Anyway, I don't even have a wii anymore and do practice Melee about 5 times a week, but plan on putting in a day or 2 of work at a friends house. Suggestions on practicing to be fluid again? Routines or anything?

Ex: in melee, I go inf timer, plug in another controller for a ghost, pick my Falcon and go FD. I practice L cancels for every aeiral X times, then SSFFLs, the Full hop/no FFs, then FHFFLs. Then I practice wavelands, ledgehops, moonwalking. When bored, I go Yoshi's and practice platform cancels/general speed/control with platforms. I can't stomach more than an hr or 2 at a time tho, but it has IMMENSLEY improved my Melee gameplay.

When I think about brawl, I wonder WHAT to practice other than Spring to Dair to (roll,jab, tilt, ect) without Dair lag (something I was flubbing a LOT in FL).

Anyway, thoughts?

 

[Kuraudo]

I practice my spinshots and shield grabs most of the time. In friendlies I like to get crazy too just to see what works. Platform canceling, all that jazz. Really though I work on my tech skill and it improves my reaction time.

Off topic otherwise, I timed someone out in a tourney for the first time in over a year. ..... I feel so dirty.

lol

 

[da K.I.D.]

Just practice all of your movement options, spinshot, isdj, reverse springs, b reverse Side bs, RARd aerials, auto cancels, throw timings, DACUS.

there isnt much you can practice in brawl by yourself, since its a lot simpler mechanically, and more focused on reading your opponent.

 

[Espy Rose]

I'm confirmed for WHOBO, guys.

 

[BSP]

But can you win it?

 

[Espy Rose]

I'm only registered for mid tier singles at the moment.

 

[BSP]

 

[JMan8891]

laughed so hard

 

[Life]

In other words, yes

 

[da K.I.D.]

yea, what incom said. sounds like that means you have a better chance of winning it.

 

[Espy Rose]

I have a decent chance, but dumb stuff happens.
