[ballin4life]

anyone see the dr dre snoop dogg coachella performance from last weekend?

i'm watching it here

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

i did

in otherwords, i played online for the first time yesterday in galaxy with clubba, and now i'm trying to play again.

keyboard is ****ing impossible. how does anyone do this **** rofl

 

[Morin0]

Get a controller B4 you get used to the keyboard and then it's a pain to get into the controller.

 

[clubbadubba]

i'm a firm proponent of getting decent with your secondary controller type. I think it forces you to think more and makes you realize the lazy **** you get away with.

Also wtf, since when can't we talk about alcohol? I've been doing it for 1-2 years with no problems. I don't like that the rules (or at least there enforcement), is getting all strict now

A$ for pres

 

[Sangoku]

I'm sure he will get an adapter soon

 

[Olikus]

I tried keyboard once. I understood quickly it wasnt for me.

 

[Sangoku]

I can almost play keyboard Falcon at the same level as controller Falcon (not quite, but not too far away). And I've started training one-handed controller. Clubba gave me the idea, and I think it could be too funny to beat noobs like that. I can beat lvl 7's. Haven't tried 9 yet.

starking, did you not get my pm?

I got it, I was just like "meh, I'll respond later" and then forgot about it lol

Sorry bro, thinking in Russian is a pain. There's a reason I don't like talking to my parents' Russian friends.

 

[Olikus]

Even if the 64 controller has obvious flaws. I still just find it so perfect for smash. Hard to picture me getting used to another controller for that game.

The 64 controller is absolutely flawless.

 

[Olikus]

The 64 controller is absolutely flawless.

ofc the joystick is gods gift to gamers

 

[asianaussie]

it's the best flail-type weapon i have on hand if somebody breaks into my room at night

yeah i have one in my room, a hori and a gcube controller too

 

[SSBPete]

I have over 10 controllers. 4 of which have functioning joysticks

 

[The Star King]

4/10?

lol 64 controllers

I have a Hori and a Gamecube controller in my room too. No 64 controller though. My weapon of choice to fight off burglars is keyboard anyways

 

[SSBPete]

its more like 4/12

i see your point

 

[asianaussie]

mine also has a pokemon stadium transfer pak for extra weight

my pokemon crystal in it, so when you get hit you might see sparkles

ahaha im funny, right

 

[Olikus]

its more like 4/12

i see your point

12 controllers? thats legit. I got 9. 3 of them are horrible. ( I allways let other players borrow them when we play other games than smash) >=)

5 of them is really good since I havent used them so much yet. And one is untouched extreme green mint wet in the panths.

 

[SSBPete]

i use an xbox 360 controller for online because the joystick doesn't get damaged

i've uploaded 99 videos to youtube...should i make the 100th an all character combo vid? it might take me a while though

 

[asianaussie]

upload a video of you mimicking that picture of tank

 

[Olikus]

Either you should upload the greatest video you ever made. Or upload something totally unexpected, like the sopranos ending on the shows last episode.

 

[SSBPete]

all the australians should use that as their display picture

Either you should upload the greatest video you ever made. Or upload something totally unexpected, like the sopranos ending on the shows last episode.

i might go with the former

 

[asianaussie]

if you did that i would relegate yukiko to my used avatar folder and put peteface.jpg as my avatar for at least a month

I got 98 ARRrr!

Also, Eggland and Hype have exactly the same views...

o____________O

What does it mean?

EDIT:
Did a (smash) controller count in my room:

7 64 controllers (1st party) - only one is mint.
5 Mad Catz/random 3rd party controllers- Something is wrong with all of them.
1 Hori- Mint condition.

1 new Japanese Gamecube controller- Mint condition.
4 ghetto janked Gamecube controllers- Something is wrong with all of them.

I can now 4-5 stock level 9 CPUs with one hand héhé. Next time I'm playing my mate, I'll use only one hand.

 

[asianaussie]

breaking news: SK watches that's so raven

not sure if respect for him goes up or not

 

[B Link]

Respect goes way up.

 

[The Star King]

Present tense? Do they still air that show?

 

[asianaussie]

i assume you have all the episodes on multiple hard drives and watch at least two episodes before going to bed each night

 

[The Star King]

Not to mention the The Boondocks, best show on TV

MAKE. A. FOURTH. SEASON.

Nice man. What's your technique? I go left handed, gripped just like regular play, using my left thumb to hit both A and B. I'm limited to jabs, neutral airs, shield grabs, dash attacks, neutral B, and when recovering up-b though its pretty hard coming from the right side.

 

[asianaussie]

pick fox, jump to saffron helipad, proceed to d-smash repeatedly, all with one hand

5-stock 3 lv9s on the same team ezpz

 

[TANK64]

Time to get back into my workout routine tomorrow...

and then there's my German.

and other STUFF.

oh boy...

I hold it with the right hand.
Thumb on the joystick: a bit awkward, especially when I need to smash.
Middle finger on R: really powerful, you can grab, usmash, any aerial, z-cancel, tech.
Forefinger kinda on a/b: this one is really awkward and unreliable, since I can only use the inner side part of the finger to press the buttons. I mainly use it for up b (recovery and doug hug) or down tilt edgeguard (so I can prepare my finger to press a).
The other fingers (ring finger and little finger) grip the right part of the controller.
With Fox, I can also quickly hold it the normal way and SHDL as edgeguard or camping.

What I can't do:
-Shield. The z button is too far for the ring finger to reach it without moving the hand. I can roll from a ledge though, since I have time to reposition myself.
-Short hop. I would have to work on my forefinger precision. Now I mostly stick hop.
Then there are some unreliable/inconsistant stuff:
-Use the joystick precisely.
-Use a attacks that can't be performed with r.
-Z-cancel
-DI
etc.

If anyone has another/better technique, feel free to share .

edit: I remembered this one-handed combo vid and went to watch it once again. It's funny, because I actually hold the controller the same way as he does. Not quite at his level though.

The Boondocks is amazing.

They said there will be a fourth season..

 

[The Star King]

Oh really? I thought there won't be for some reason. Looking forward to it, then.
