I resolve to stop Frozen from running off the new members from the boards this year.
I resolve to be less of a recluse on the boards.

Oh yeah! On the spot resolutions.

Stop saying balls. He said one testicle, not two.

If it were me, I'd be more concerned about him eating all the food in your fridge. That's more likely to happen than him cutting off one ball.

Well as the old saying goes:

Cut off my ball, shame on you. But eat the food in my fridge, shame on me.

Be vigilant or be hungry. The choice is yours.

So instead of doing Dthrow Fthrow as a CG transition, based on the Data from Guest's Scroll of Legend, we really ought to be doing Dthrow Dthrow (+ shield buffer if necessary) to reduce mashability.


Edit: Oops, meant to post this in the CG guide thread. GG

I do dthrow-dthrow. That's what Hylian taught me to do on the transition.

Yeah, I do Dthrow Dthrow as well. Every IC I've spoken to in person at tournies has always said to do the Dthrow Buffered Fthrow though as the first thing they notice about my play lol.

Lies. I think the logic for fthrow is that it's constant timing for every character therefore easier. Despite spacing being more strict at percents below like 70 and it being more mashable. It's sad how many misconceptions about the basic CGs are still floating around. I'm still working on that so we actually know what we're talking about and what we talk about is correct.

So I already failed one of my resolutions... not even two weeks into the new year. Failure is upon me.

Also... dthrow is the best throw in all of IC history. You're entitled to your own thoughts but if it differs from what I just posted then make sure you know that you're wrong. :cool:

I guess those are decent explanations. Though I probably could have beaten atomsk (at least game 1, game 2 he ***** me) 'cause he went D3 and I dropped 2-3 grabs I shouldn't have.

I lost to Saffy in losers once again because I dropped 1 too many grabs. I really need to get a non-hd tv in my room so I can practice more.

In pools same thing, I got 3rd seed to Vinnie and Fonz. (Fonz actually beat Vinnie pretty solidly, to my surprise.)

Both my games vs Fonz were close, and my matches vs Vinnie we were both kinda goofing around and I wasn't really trying 100% 'cause I didn't expect to beat Vinnie (no johns though, he is legit better than me... for now. ;] ), and he was my last important pools match so I knew I was getting 3rd seed at this point. I did have a lot of fun playing him though. Pictochat shenanigans were in full swing.

In winners bracket I managed to beat Quivo much to my surprise. I went ICs all 3 games. He seemed to play the matchup really well, only landed once every like 2 minutes (on sv), and always with a bomb or zair. I just managed to take advantage of his few small errors each game and didn't drop any grabs.

Game 1 he took though, during it nana tripped in the middle of a cg. -__-

But yeah, then I had to play Atomsk. Then Saffy. This is the first tournament I've gone to however, in which I didn't feel truly outplayed by anybody to an extent where I couldn't have won. I'm fairly sure almost every game I dropped as ICs was due to 1-3 dropped grabs that with (hopefully) some more reliable practice, I'll soon fix. I also went something like 9-4 in MMs. (2 of the losses were with Pika, and 2 wins as well.)

Yeah like Excel said I was horribly sick :(. I think I still got 13th somehow losing to atomsk in losers lol but overall I could barely keep my eyes open, I kept dropping chaingrabs because of coughing, and the only matches I played the entire day were my pool and tournament matches. Should have just forfeited :/.

Yeah, Tutu mentioned that you kept dropping CGs 'cause you had to cough. That sucks man. I was gonna see if you wanted to play a few, but by the time I got finished with my MMs n' pools and everything you were spending most of your time half/fully asleep on the couch.

Glad you're feeling better, hopefully we can get a few games in next time.

Well, idk what you even count as an ICs player, because like half of the ICs used another char more. Me, Hylian, Future, Atomsk (though didn't use them a ton), Excel (I don't think he really used them in bracket.), and Vinnie (I didn't see him use them in pools at all. He was in mine. But he did beat Shugo with them.)

As for Lain.. I honestly have no idea. lol, he was with us at the smashfest the night before we left, saying it was looking like he was going to have his hands on a car for the weekend. But I guess it fell through? We weren't able to reach him. =/
