First off, I left without saying much because I was on the verge of making a huge scene and tellin off a whole bunch of ppl. Ever since I came to these tournaments, I have had nothing short of ridiculous bull**** happen to me. I receive no credit for any of my accomplishments.
I won majority of the matches in friendlies against I.B. using his mains marth, falcon and sheik, including a 3 stock on FD. Considering he's #5 on the PR, I would have assumed that would gain at least some credit for me. Not only does that mean nothing to others, ppl have the nerve to assume that the only reason I was winning is because he was messing up, not at the fact that I was playing well.
I have faced David's sheik, fox and IC's, beaten them all in 1-2 stocks. Considering he was a finalist at most of GTA tournaments, I figured that would gain some credit....... nope. People watch the matches (FOR DAVID, not me) and when I do well, nobody says anything. When david does well, everybody says "good stuff David" and stuff along those lines. I have no problem with ppl getting credit, but for **** sakes give credit where it's due. Even today, faced him, beat him, complete silence.
I've only beaten ryan a handful of times, but considering he has one of if not the best meta game in the GTA, it's an accomplishment. Once again, it means nothing to anybody when I do well. Also, just today I beat Ambrose on multiple occasions, even when he tried to counter-pick me, and even though SOMEBODY was watching, I got no congrats, no support, nothing.
Coolhat has done extremely well in these tournaments, including beating the #1 seed today in pools. While I respect Chris and his Luigi, I must make the point that some of the reason that he's improved over this time has been because of my support and advice. Once I met him at Seasons, I became his friend, helped him in his pool matches and was coaching him the whole time. He has a great techniqual game, but lacks a proper meta game, which I have been helping him with every chance I can. If i'm the one he asks for help from, how does that entail that I need to work my game up to his level? if ppl didn't continuosly get hit by his 2x aerials and edge guarded him properly, he would not be doing as well as he is. I was greatly offended by ppl telling me that I need to work my game up to Chris'. Techniqual game, for sure. Otherwise, no. I don't mean to offend u man, but i'm stating facts, no **** talk. In all honesty, a lot of the ppl in the GTA smash scene aren't that difficult to beat, ppl just lack patience and logical thinking.
Bernard, u of all ppl I am incredibly disappointed with. I've been supporting u now for years, we played together, we helped eachother out, and I spent hours and hours telling u where u can improve ur overall game. I have beaten u on multiple occasions and told u where u went wrong. Now ur at the top, and u have just forgotten about me. I watch ur back, and ur nowhere to b found when I needed support.
I am also incredibly frustrated with the fact that I support people, long time friend or not, as much as I can, I stay in their corner, cheer, give advice, help keep them chilled, anything to help, but when I have my matches, tournament or friendly, nobody is there to back me up. The most I get are petty "GO CHARLES!" calls and then they walk off. Considering how I back u guys up, the decent thing to do is to get the same respect.
Last but not least, I have been working my *** off to improve my overall game, and everytime brackets come around, I get ****ed over. I have had to face Jake twice in the first round in both tournaments that i've been to recently. That is ridiculous. A lot of stupid **** happens in my matches to cause me to lose to players who have little to no meta game, and it makes me sick.
I have now realized that when it comes down to it, ppl don't support me, and really couldn't care less about how I do in these matches, while I bend over backwards to help anybody I can. I'm leaving this ridiculous smash scene and not coming back. I'm tired of being overshadowed by players who play much more immaturely than I do, and ppl who accomplish the same things that I accomplish but get credit while I don't. Don't even bother to try and talk me out of this, because deep down u ppl don't give a ****.
