--------------------------

a question: I am practicing the CGs with character with pretty different weight size Snake/MK/Lucario/Peach

is that good?
id practice mk (light weight)/snake (heavy weight)/diddy (weird semi-light-mid weight)/ lucario (mid weight). Thats the overall weights i practice. If you have warios and DDDs in your region id reccommend practicing those as well.

I love how random scrubs qq about our random fusion. treat it like MK... AND DEAL WITH IT. the only reason you're qq'ing about it is because you are in fear that you'll lose to it. that is the case. PERIOD. the only reason people would qq about MK is the fear of them losing, but people have learned to deal with it. It took time, but It's what happened. So... STOP QQ'ING!!!!!! and deal with it. :)

Items are not banned, its an ingame switch, thus like any setting can be turned off or on while still playing the game.


You also assume I am against those things. I actually don't mind walkoffs unless the game overcentralizes around these, but there is a lack of tourney evidence for that. I am actually for having items in game to a certain degree, I want more testing to be done though. But items are a preference, because there is an in game option.
Banned/set to off. But at least that is consistent. However thats also why I see no problem with it being banned at places that remove such items and stages. Id be glad to give moral support to fusion at any place that allowed those as well.
IT's not worth bothering for me to humor you :chuckle:
lol, well I didnt mean it that way, but I see I worded it poorly. I meant it really would have been pointless to argue otherwise. I was just responding to swordgard's question.

thanks man, I am going to do that and yeah I am going to practice all of those even if my region lacks warios there's like one or two maybe, it wont hurt in anyway.

"Floaty" would specify their fast fall speed, not their weight.

Fast fall speed doesn't matter unless its SoPo CGing.
Thanks, I'll have to practice the SoPo CG too u reminded me of it.

Silly Ice climbers lmao. F*** your character.
F*** your MK. :laugh:

do you guys have any tricks involving just Desynched attacks? (not CGs/Blizzard walls)

on paper two ICs just attacking seem very good...

I got dq'ed out of winner's against Ally, thus making my long and arduous journey through losers to get 3rd. Lost to Zucco 5th game all IC's. The matchup isn't bad, but it's hard as hell for both characters lol

When did I ever say it wasn't the ice climbers favor. I said its not unwinnable. And I never said I lose to d3s in tourney. I just said coney does well against me in serious friendlies


also hylian I have some ice climbers dittos tips for you. I feel the main reason you lost to lain is because you were winning round 1 and he got that very oppurtune d-tilt Gimp. You lost momentum and got overly aggressive round 2.

If you space the forward b better I don't think the other climber can d-smash you out of shield to punish it. You kept forward bing all the way up into him. Once again I think the main reason you played poorly round 2 was because you were frustrated and because of your momentum lost.

I play against lucarios so much that I will learn the matchup with ICs faster than against most characters.

The dair is annoying if it hits, but the Ice blocks are useful in this matchups.

( I been playing ICs since two months ago I think, but I know the Lucario MU with Snake and Dedede )

btw : ICs are <3

edit : GimR your post that's below mine is an awesome an idea, *goes to my room, to practice moar CG*

btw... I am practicing hard enough like 5 hours a day, since I study from 8:30 to 11:30am and I can't work since I have a scholarship that pays my studies and give money once a month but can't get a work ( that's the deal of it) since the scholarship ends when I can be in the laboral world so that I study, call some girl that I talk to everyday from college and then ICs practice all day :D ( I live really near of college)

the other day I overdid though... last friday I played from 7pm to 5am :/ wtf

I'll be beast with ICs someday(that's my goal) and with Snake.

You don't have to approach lucario. You can just ice block desync and force his approach since it cancels any size aura ball.

BTW, meeps lucario strategy is smart. Completely master the chain Grab and only try to grab lucario don't do any damage besides chain grabs. This keeps lucario weak the whole match if done correctly.
