Sheik Tournament Results and Discussion

[Dcold]

Nah there aren't any vids, there were like no hacked Wiis to play on (Tourney was running P:M so all hacked had that). I was playing well yesterday, got upset that I lost that but good stuff to DeltaCod.

 

[KenniSpam!]

No he let his brother win so he wouldn't have to play me lol.

Couple people have beaten X in the last couple of months but he really isn't in his prime anymore.

I beat DS4 ((Toon Link), Ken Neth (Snake/MK), Isee (Ice Climbers) and a couple other randoms.

COme to think of it I don't think I won any games with Sheik just used her in the 5 games I lost vs. X so nevermind lmao.

 

[Dcold]

Completely flaccid.

Who is Taigacan? o_o

 

[#HBC | Scary]

Mampam, #5 and climbing on the FL PR. One of my training buddies.

 

[C.J.]

Taigacan, like ED says, is Mampam and is also RedHalberd's brother.
He's like... the single most underrated player ever.

 

[Dcold]

Oh. I knew who Mampam was, but didn't know he switched names.

 

[#HBC | Scary]

He enters as random names that he uses. Taigacan is one of them lol.

 

[<π]

why is Hbox so good?

 

[C.J.]

Because Brawl, while a more mental game than Melee, is a simpler game technically (esp for characters like DDD). Given that he didn't have to relearn anything or become technically proficient to play Brawl, all he has to do is play intelligently. Since you have to do that in melee as well, it's not THAT hard to make the transition to Brawl from melee effectively, considering he's a god tier player in melee.

It'd be a different story if he played like... Sheik or Marth or Link or something.

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

OR GANONDORF.

 

[<π]

HE plays jiggs in melee and D3 in brawl. SO~ far appart...
I think its just because he is an A plus student.

 

[Dcold]

Got any videos of that tournament Ed?

 

[#HBC | Scary]

Alot of Zelda, since Zelda was in the stream alot. Yesterday I got vids of Sheik but I have a plateau I need to get over.

 

[Dcold]

Maybe we can help? I'd love to actually give a real critique.

 

[#HBC | Scary]

I agree, just gotta have those vids finally show up lol.

 

[-Mars-]

5/25 last weekend....imma have to get serious again lolz no more other characters.

Cept for Icies f dat.

 

[Dcold]

>Picking up ICs for the Ditto.

 

[-Mars-]

bleh. have fun wit dat.

just get your mk on and gay dem out the only ones you would lose to is actual good ones.

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

Yeah, why pick up a character that you would have to outplay the opponent with, when you can pick MK and just out character them instead.

 

[Zankoku]

The only ICs I'd ever be worried about would be the good ones, anyway. : \

 

[-Mars-]

I'm probably the worst person ever at getting grabbed, they don't even need to be good just know the chaingrab

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

Does anyone remember the scene in OoT where sheik gets bodied by the invisible hand of the boss of the shadow temple?

 

[Dcold]

You act as if using MK vs ICs is actually an easy task.

 

[-Mars-]

It's not. I hate that character

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

ICs are a bad character.

 

[Dcold]

They're actually quite good.

I loved everything about teams but kinda lackluster in Singles. Just gotta stop up a bit and put some more practice in. Nothing really recorded except some more doubles vids so I'll get those up hopefully.

 

[Dcold]

I know the feeling Ed, exactly the same happened to me this past weekend :S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S

And Judo, I bet even after this people will still get caught with the Chain and underestimate it :B

As I already mentioned in the social thread, I finally figured out the issues I've had with tourney nerves so "IT'S ON NOW!!!"

Welcome to fighting games. Character loyalty usually gets you nowhere.

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

It's nearly as easy/effortless to use the undisputed number 1 broken character in balanced games




Then again most balanced games don't have a broken character, that determines the their list based on how badly he beats people.
