I'd be very happy to do that.

And I see that we are switching names of this thread like everyday.

I love the new Charizard

You didn't like Xenoblade Chronicles C? Rude.

It didn't sell well ;^(

And wtf, I like... never get any alerts anymore from any of the threads I frequent

Now that both Donkey Kong Country Returns and Ocarina of Time get released on both 3DS and Wii U via eShop and remakes/remasters, there's now no reason to not see the original Xenoblade being released on Wii U's eShop as well.

Things I need to remember with Shulk - Buster f-tilt's shield pushback isn't going to make it safe when your opponent has their back to the ledge.

Getting one of Bravely Default's VAs to sign your game? You just raised the net worth of that game case by $$$. Too bad it wasn't Agnes' VA...

Bryce Papenbrook (Tiz) was in my area last year - I really wish I'd had this idea back then. Fingers crossed that he will come out this way again, and the others will follow at some point.

Yeah. Lol. You're better off with buster d-smash or.... well grabbing also works (almost all the time)

Nice, man. I always think Shiny Aegislash -> Monado. Actually, I've been mixing Pokémon and Xenoblade for a long while now... even in the metagame! Here are two different replays (from different tiers and different times) you all should definitely watch

I was doing it to represent Xenoblade in the metagame

...and I'm now doing the same thing in the Smash 4 metagame...

Try to move on to VGC (doubles), it is truly fun, needs critical thinking, and a lot of unusual pokemon are gods there.
Allows me for pretty epic xenoblade stuff aswell inside of a double battle. :3

Whenever I go into Buster I need to kill the habit of assuming ftilt is always safe
Besides, dsmash broken shields are much more entertaining.

I was playing VGC Doubles competitively until almost two years ago. Indeed, it is fun, but eventually some of the attitudes in the community drove me out... And stupid Route 2 birds.

Anyone up for some Smash on 3DS?

I prefer Smogon rules to VGC, but doubles has always sort of interested me. It's not as prediction heavy as singles, and there definitely is more room for unique strategies/tactics. I just never tried it. I don't really want to get back into Pokémon, though. Sm4sh+Bravely Default+Splatoon+Pokémon would be to much for me

Seeing the title

makes me want to revive the ultimate ship

For me, Doubles is the only way to play Pokemon. And it's true: there is more room for unique strategies... Or rather, there used to be, before Gen VI hit us. With Talonflame's (stupid OP) Gale Wings ability, half the great strategies you'd love to use went out the window. I mean, you can try, but against the metagame standard "goodstuffs" team, a lot of things that used to work don't anymore. I know I miss my Swift Swim Armaldo + Therian Tornadus team...

Also worth noting that earlier I played a bunch of matches on For Glory, and eventually ran into another Shulk player! We opened the fight with an up taunt, then had two close matches. He won both by a narrow margin. Then I switched to Robin, and won by a hair. Some fun matches.

Praise the Stealth Rocks on singles. I don't like how everyone uses Protect on Doubles and Mega Kangaskhan shouldn't exist

Haha

I agree about MegaKhan, but not Protect. Half the strategy in Doubles is predicting who the opponent will attack and using Protect wisely. It's annoying for Singles players, I know, but you couldn't really have Doubles without it. Not everyone wants to use DisQuake combos when they just want Earthquake, too.

Artritis- The act of ****ing up or not maximizing the utility of an art that's currently being used
Busteritis- The act of taking more damage than dealing damage in buster

If you suffer the latter, fear not. Buster will redeem itself with its amazing damage boost

I believe I was suffering from both of those this morning. 50% rate on FG says it all.

 

[Peppa]

I'm suffering from busteritis too much lately...

 

[Berserker.]

Recommendations for those who are suffering busteritis:

1) Play a bit more defensively
2) Learn to love retreating f-airs
3) Learn to pivot f-tilt/pivot grab
4) Shield art = Panic button
5) Hope for the best

After reading this I realized that I might play Shulk too defensively. I then proceeded to go to fg and play 5 matches more offensively. At that time I also realized that my gc controller sucks at using the second jump after an air attack. I sd'ed almost every death. But I won 3-2 sooooo. Yay???

Is there a condition for suffering...MALLC's intangibility window?!

Slip Counter

Paralyzer shot

Shulk's F-air

This has been a great ride for me and my MALLC usage in this patch! I've been getting a lot of highlights like these pictures!

Considering the recent controversy over the FE character Soleil I'll post this, spoilered for those who don't want to see it

Spoiler

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[WindHero]

I really don't know why people need to make such uproars about a controversial support conversation. It's a game, this was added for humor. And on that side of it, I dig it. Aren't there a ton of other conversations in the series with similarly screwed up ideas? Try Tharja force-feeding Robin that eel dish... Or Henry switching bodies with Sumia using a hex...

Or Hector snoring through numbers class.

But what if I have Hyper Busteritis?

MALLC invincibility is something that I've been abusing for quite a while already hehe

Edit: When I remember to stop acting immediately off from MALLC

 

[Sol0ke]

Finally recovered taking a break from playing Shulk.

Time to go back to work with him.

 

[Peppa]

I know that feeling. It just hurts playing against 9000 Luigis with frame two jabs ):

 

[Sol0ke]

It was a long break.

Emphasize on the long.

 

[WindHero]

Seems like Shulk is a character that it is easy to get disheartened with. When I was playing with my friends, Shulk was one of my favorite characters to wade into the fray with... Until they all started ganging up on me whenever I chose Shulk. And you know how that can be...

I did put him down for quite a while, except for 1v1 sometimes, but eventually I got back into it. Now I've gotten into the mentality of "play Shulk even when it's not a favorable match-up, just to learn him through and through." Sooner or later I'll put Greninja and Robin in there more regularly, but til then, I gotta focus...

 

[Berserker.]

I think I'll never understand why Luigi is hard for Shulk. Idk. Don't think Shulk or Luigi body each other but if it's anyone's favor, it's Shulk's but imo anyway

 

[kenniky]

I feel like a lot of the Luigi Shulk matchup is run away so you don't get grabbed.

Nair should help a LOT against grabrushes/fireballs. But what do I know, I never actually played as luigi against a good shulk player.

 

[Peppa]

Oh, the actually match up of Luigi isn't hard at all, buster is a godsend in that match up with Luigi's already poor traction.
What I mean is my jealousy of his frame data. I still wish Shulk's jab was a little bit faster then five then he'd be literally perfect.
