No, you aren't.
This argument is a waste of time. I have nothing further to say on the subject.

i think raserucort is pretty entertaining. i also think this may have been touched on before, but all the stuff that Lunin has explained comes second-nature to "good" people. the good/experienced smashers have been doing this ish for so long, that they can do it without focusing as hard on it, making it more consistent and more effective. just like everything, it must be practiced and experienced, for mastery.

What happened? This thread was on a recovery when I posted last. Curse you Sora!
Oh well, at least some people could benefit from the insight of certain players. Glad G-reg sees the game in the same way I do

I found this post very helpful. I play sorta read and react in my game, which I need to fix. Because I react too slowly and overthink leading to my losses. I need to get in the habit of certain things such as L-cancelling insted of THINKING about doing them. I'll take this to mind.

No, the Names Max, Hmm ok lemme get this straight you want me to post the names of everyone i ever beat in a tournament,ok not only do i not go around asking people their names, but why would i even remember that ? Ok the only few people extrodinary peoples i do remember, was a guy name Alex, from "san antonio", A shilo Diaz," Anthoney hillard" and a "Rymone Clark "both from waco texas.
not in my oppinon but our smash comnuinty as awhole has ranked These people as the best lemme but this in terms where everyone can understand, Oh and listen i dont want slack nore do i need it. But heres the info you asked for.
" Very High Tiers "
Max Phenix: me
Rymone Clark: Just recently met through a tournament
Alex or Zeak not sure what his real name is, this are the people, now believe what you want, i could care less, I have the names of some of the best players in texas, but these are believe to be the best.
1. who are you,
2. dont just jump into a conversation, bashing people, it makes you look stupid and unEducated, you type as if your some driveby noobie.
3.listen i dont care who you are, or who you think you are, stfu and get off this section.
4. i go to quality tournaments all the time, how many tournaments have you won ? in fact i dont even care, say want you want, but as explain i dont make alternate.... why am even explaining myself to you, your just random drive by poster. * puts you on iggy ahead of time.*
Oh and for the record , the admins should be able you check our computer ip adresses, so if they really thought i made another, they could just check both account for the same ip adress, And found out, Now as i said before stfu and get off this section.
oh yea sora, you're right, i apologize for everything I said. I didn't realized you and the other 2 best players in TX were: Max Phenix, Rymone Clark, Alex or Zeak. f I had known you really were the best I wouldn't have been so quick to sling mud your way. now that I know that you are the world renowned phenix I take everything back

the kid is obviously 12, and if hes older, than hes acting 12. anyone who claims to be good/knowledgable at melee without hearing about and playing any smashers from MLG, especially in his own state, is obviously acting very immature and ignorant. come on, friend, the boards can be a fun and helpful place. all you have to do is take the first step, accept that you know little, and learn from people who know more than you.

My response: lol, yea now show some respect, i understand you didnt know, your new, just remember my face next time, this and only this time, ill forgive you
This one was even more halirious.
You make it sound as if im in AA class, ok ill admit i have been very delusional, luin dude, you will never believe it, it was just like you said ! i went to a M-L tournament and dude i was, like, what you all said, whats that word ? when a guy snatches up a girl walking through a dark ally at night ? yea thats it "*****"! i was so surprised haveing my virginity/ first lost/ or winning streak, takeing away from me like that, i mean the dude picked a jigglypuff, and i had got link, you know me, being the extreme n"oooo"bie that i am,I picked link and thought i had the game in the bag,
i mean it was 6 man stocked i didnt even ko him once ! i was so shocked.
the first thing that came to my mind was, Luin was right, here i was, thinking i was the best in texas, even tho ive beat 15 tournament statewide with alot of very decent player, some good and few bad, and even some undergound ones as well, even some held in stinky basement with only 5 to 6 people from smashboards !!. then dude G-Regulate i seen your post, Even tho ive been playing this game since the year "02" and knew every advance tech and use them perfectly at will, you know except wave dashing,OH by the way ! i saw something really amazing with that, dude ! i was fighting a guy in the tournament, and i useing the stab down with link, he wave dashed backwards ! to avoid being hit ! i mean like whoa !!!!! even tho he could have rolled or dodge it, i mean still why go into the animation when you can SCOOT !, then when i was trying to get back on, he Scooted to the edge, and i fell ! Never before have i seen such unparrelled showmenship ! that stuff can only been seen in the MLG Baby i tell you ! Anyway back to what i was saying. Even tho ive played the game for so long, and tho i know how to use ALL the techs, this had lead me to believe that over my +15 tournaments, and 4 years of experience, I KNOW NOTHING or VERY LITTLE about the game, Big G-Reg, it amazeing how you never seen me play before, but you you cant tell i know nothing about the game, one would almost think it could the same way, but in reverse, i never seen such and such play, but he knows everything. But that just my noobie brain thinking. so i will listen those who are most better than me , please i dont want to be 12 years old arrogrant over confident cocky, Inuyasha, Sasuke, Vegeta wanna be anymore !.
* lowers head * Thanks to this website i now know my skills are nothing more but a insect on the windshield wipers of a gods care * ( gods being you guys far better than me ) im mean im not even in the middle, im on the far edge where the wipers cant even reach.
Dear Die-HaRD mEMbers of sMASh boARds, Thanks for showing me the way to richisnous, The Smashboard way is the onlyway, if your not on this website, your just a nobody, even tho this isnt the offical nintendo smash bros website.
keep up the good work everyone and continue to show noobies like me, were nobodys , even tho we havent heard of 99.9 percents of the members here. you guys... Rule. When i grow up, i hope i come to have atleast half the talent you guys have.im gonna have to agree thats so much thought for some very self thought muscle memory things its a great post for more non experienced people but i think alot of the things you talk about are already known by with out even thinking about it (if that makes sense) anyways i love that Signature Dance Bobby Dance

I just wanted to point out that by simply attempting the earlier "habits" the last is a given.
I would prefer a change to simply "Emotional Control."
Ranking tournament players win and lose by mistakes, often forcing them upon their opponents or by the opponent not knowing enough technical game to NOT do something silly.
Then they get frustrated...which leads to more mistakes.
Whenever I am trying to help someone on Smash I observe many of the same things you (Rey) have addressed. But handling those things while "freaking out" is next to impossible.
A calm, steady approach to getting better or maintaining a match can improve a players game exponentially if not immediately.
As an example: I attended a local tournment in Newark, Ohio the summer before last.
I, of course, was in the final round facing a Luigi player I didn't recognize.
I assumed he was pretty good to make it there and, quite frankly, was glad it was him instead of this Puff player I had my eye on the whole tourney.
I, as black Link, started the match as I always do.
During the first life of the 4 stock item match, we tested eachothers defenses, habits, etc.
I KNEW I could beat this guy, simply because I play someone better than him (who uses Luigi) all the time. However, he happened to get the first kill. "No worries" I told myself, for the aforementioned reason.
A heart spawned while I died. Now it was 4-3.
Still not worried. Rather than freakin' out, I remain confident and proceed to beat the tar out of him until it's 1-1, no damage either way.
Now I realize this is not an "extreme" example. I have won 2-1 games outnumbered 4 times stock wise. But that isn't the point. I get frustrated with people who GET frustrated, or even worse, give up entirely. You will never, EVER get better by getting emotional and/or quitting.
Keep a level head, analyze why you are winning/losing while you are doing it and maintain your composure. Even if you lose, you should have learned why.

Nice way of seeing it, but a strong mindset does fit into emotional control, for your post, I might put Strong Mindset / Emotional Control...

Raedien: Very nice post. This is something that should be common sense, but I think that a lot of people forget it too often. I made this mistake at OC2 in the singles; I did really horrible compared to how I normally play, and I'm still mad at myself for it. My first match was against a Samus, and I have 2 friends who play Samus a lot so I was perfectly comfortable with that, and so I won the match. But then I played an IC, and I had never played a decent IC before, so I was really nervous. As soon as he started winning from the beginning of the first round, it all went down hill from there. I became too scared to try anything, and ended up doing the same things over and over again even though I didn't want to. It was like I couldn't control myself. After that I just played horrible the rest of the pool and lost the rest of the matches. Although I'm pretty sure I still would have lost the rest of the matches anyway, because the other people were really good. But I'm still dissapointed at how bad I played against them, even if I still would have lost.

i Agree with you 100% Lunin Spectra. I'd like to also add that experience plays a key role in smash. Those habits develop after experience and time.

that's pretty much all there is to say about that.
I'm glad you got put in your place and now you know where you stand in the smash scene, about 5 years ago when the game first came out. now stay in school and learn to speel carrectlee
