no johns..except one..i should of had it down to within a stock on that dreamland vs fats...one missed laser got me gimped at 30ish:\ i hate that about the vs ganon matchups..you don't retreat with your laser like you intended and you die...
most amazing kill fats got on me was during one of my combos when he upaired out of it somehow and killed me...was amazing
the other big regret is that i should have done better vs ross's peach with fox...my mistake was forgetting my kill moves...i forgot that jabs set up for upsmash out of aerials, and i did some stupid stuff like get CC dsmashed on platforms..i'm not used to fighting peach..but anyways good games man...we will rematch sometime...i'm starting to get the hang of that matchup
fats..i was surprised how good falcon is vs ganon...for the record..falcon's nair is greater than anything ganon can do..though you should have cc'ed it more often looking back and you would have beaten me by more...
as for me...i did pretty well..i didn't think till the last life to use dair though..probably shoulda used that to setup for knee..but for never having played the matchup before i did well i thought
mashi..your fox is amazing..your marth i could handle..perhaps because i too am a marth-fox player, but ya..my sheik found your marth pretty easy...you need to incorporate more dtilt and CC grab into your game..though you did get two CC grabs..the more the better in that matchup

dtilt spaces out sheik better
..in that set i forget what happened..i won sheik vs marth..then you counterpicked me FD and i went fox vs your marth....lost that.......i went marth your fox and lost again? t was an fod match, and your fox was sooo fast...first life you zero to deathed my marth
then i counterpicked you somewhere and won..fox dittos on FD i think?
and then you went fox vs my sheik on PS and won...that last kill was so tight...
i remember thinking..ya i DI'ed that in...and at this percent he only has a few frames in which to try for the upair before i can jump out...obviously it was a few frames too many
in conclusion next time we play a set you can expect me to go either all sheik or maybe counterpicking you in fox dittos if i can get that matchup...as opposed to trying marth-fox from any side since you won that both ways
SPD..i remember your fox has gotten faster

also, i was impressed with the shine spike out of me dairing you...to be exact i think there are 2-3 frames between dair hits..so you had a 1-2 frame window to time that shine

craziness
kits your fox was beast
let's see i won yoshi's first match vs your falco..i was impressed by how you came back after my first life of zero-death..stereotypical cheap *** marth combos..i played conservative for the rest of the match making sure to trade as much as possible to keep my lead and it worked
second match you counterpicked me FD and managed to beat my marth...you were a full stock ahead but i pulled a zero to death and caught up...still lost though
then, we did fox vs falco on fd which i won...and then i did fox ditto on japes which i won pretty easy
![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.gif)
it's unfortunate, but my roommate counterpicks there all the time...he plays falco, jiggs, and peach so pretty much all of his char love that stage
you probably should have gone dreamland in a fox vs falco match..i would have at least
kyle's johns---since kyle isn't here i'll john for him..his only real complaint is..
"i played horrible..and apples explode"
....poor kyle

ask schoolie for details on the green greens bowser + apple ****..no fair with the double team schoolie
he said that he was happy with how well his peach did against schoolie's jiggs..said that he was at one point up by a stock but schoolie pulled a reverse nair to rest and then clenched the first match although it was close...not bad but pretty good for someone with two days of peach practice
![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
unfortunately jiggs counters falco..and he doubted his abililty to beat another jiggs main with 4 times the experience
i watched his matches vs C-stick and i'd have to say taht overall his play was ok minus a few too many pounds...and that he kept missing places where he should have naired out of shield....at one point he tried to fair out of shield instead and it was too slow thereby getting him upsmash killed
anyways, WM got rocked..both of us went out 3rd round in a double elim tournament
although i'm content..because i did so well in my money matches...down 5 dollars..but winning the one against the char matchup that i'm good against..and losing by only one match against other top players
![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
and i'm confident i can improve on my performance with time..i just need a lot of peach, ganon, link, roy practice...in that order..i'm always so bad at new matchups
meh i hate to give actual useful advice to ross, but i want him to play even better when i train and play him next...so some of the times when you got camped zero to death..the reason you lost was because you weren't grabbing enough....dash attacks into shields ***** you....even if peach runs slow you have to mix in more grabs
oh also WM placed 3rd in teams...we actually went from playing like garbage at the beginning to getting some teamwork going on in later matches

it was pretty satisfying to improve teams play that much in an hour
