@RedX: Everyone in the Brawl PR can play a few characters, most people keep it pretty restrictive and serious though (or they're fanboys like Jei who has a hard on for Pit and Yoshi). I can play 10 characters to an extent I'm proud of because I've been playing for long enough to pick it all up.

I highly recommend you start with one though.

You see Nido, you can learn as many characters as you want, it's more learning them at the same time which is the problem. If you want to develop 3 characters altogether, you're not gonna get enough time per tournament to develop adequately. Develop one, practice them up over a few tournaments so that you can get the fundamentals that apply to all characters down, then start learning other characters as you need them (for example Ice Climbers to help you beat GaW, or Olimar to help you actually win tournaments because he's actually a good character lol) and you will get things done faster.

Learning one character asks you to change your mentality too often and it will take too long to grasp the fundamentals that will make learning other characters easier later on anyway.

That said, you could definitely juggle two characters if you're on the ball and pay attention at tournaments. But if you change your characters after each tournament, it could be tough.

What you want is really a few mains so you haven't got many bad MU's, and 3 is probably the best because you pretty much can cover up all your MU's but still maintain skill in those characters as you will play them often and keep up to scratch.

@Atilla is lucas still part of your 3?

that's most of ledge's metaknight game
and the entirety of mine
And so it would be for any other respectable, well-educated MK main.
It's taken me two years but I think I'm almost at that level.

Ricky will probably play you if he brings his ds, but I.don't know whether he's keen to go in the first place. Attila plays pokes too.

I don't play, too **** at the metagame lol.

He has an M3 with platinum, but I'm pretty sure all the pokemon are SAVed. Same with mine, but I can't play very well at all lul.

They should rename these new pokemon games to

Stealth rockamon

Gen 4 is Diamond and Pearl right? And how strong are your Pokemon? Cause my strongest is about LV 90.
I use my competitive ones with EVs how I need them, so all mine are 100
Yeah gen 4 is D/P/Pt/HG/SS
Oh wait I remember I gave my friend my good B/W Pokemon so I can do gen 5
I just prefer gen 4

Oh okays then, just checking because I've seen a couple of people in the past rage at people for having sav'd pokes. It's understandable in cases because legit pokes font get maxed out IVs while most hacked pokes do. But if both opponents have SAVed pokes, then its like sure whatever.

Also let me know when you're free to discuss the brawl ruleset jei. Although you're probably still busy moving and stuff.

couldn't agree more with how stupid brawl is...
i also spam Up+B alot if a character like Falco or another cheap character is playing against me. So whoever decides on Chaingrab characters against me at this tournament... is gonna have 1 boring match, because im gonna spam Up+B and run away when they get close.

Maybe its because they're raised with love <3. Unlike saved ones which get manually create. Yeahzzz.

:phone:
Lol maybe
Or just that whenever I play with the SAV'd pokemon my opponent knows what I'm doing all the time and counters effectively
