Leviathan, do me a favor and stop double posting. There is an edit button for a reason.

Travis - Funny story, the first tournament I went to the skill level was lower than what I expected :laugh:.
Same here. I guess that's what happens when you join when there aren't a lot of good people/pros.

:'( Poor soap.

My first tourny match was against some random guy and I pretty much only played random people who noone has ever heard of.

My first competitive match at a tournament was vs PC Chris while he was up and coming as a pro. 37 damage on his Falco with my Link (all dairs non lcancelled because I thought it was a good move) because I thought that going Sheik against him would be a bad idea. xD Ahhh those were the days. :)

I had to check my tab to make sure this was the sheik thread - it is never on topic ha.

My first tourny I was a bad kid and was amazed by falco's and a sheik that now I watch and I know I could at least go even with them. So that's a plus

2 questions
1) how does hitting someone backwards with a fair work
2) I want to do terrible things to the space animals on brinstar but the layout is a bit unorthodox. Any suggestions on how to use the platforms, pink connecter thingees, lava, wavy ground, etc. ?

To get the invert Fair you simply need to hit with the back of the Fair's hitbox.

Brinstar is silly. But I never pick that level so I can't really help you.

break the bubbles on brinstar. its easier to trap them on smaller platforms.

bair hits a bunch of bubbles at the same time. so does chain

lol sorry i didn't see this...

but you are like never on topic yourself
I don't mind you guys going off on tangents randomly for a little while. Just can't have it for like 2 pages straight.

I do randomly talk about stuff thats irrelevant sometimes but I don't go on and on about it.

Like I said I won't penalize anyone for doing it here and there, just don't do it for like 2 pages in a row.

where's the correct place to cp peach and puff? i always think small, but they have beast moves that follow up well on small stages too. :\

Personally my favorite stage to CP peach is Stadium, because of the low ceiling.

YS isn't such a bad option IMO easy to KO off the top and you have the possibility of the cloud helping you out.

Really I think its less of where to go and more of where to avoid.

I don't think I'd pick FD or DL64 against peach.

Because its harder to take advantage of your abilities really.

It doesn't hurt sheik a ton but dealing with mid level floats are obnoxious sometimes and I like to have the luxury of running onto a platform or under a platform for protection.

Plus its a relatively large stage and she can live fairly long on it =/.
