When's the next shindig?

ah...good to know it's not just me
truuuue @ boldface

Ganon vs. Marth can be rather difficult (for both)...right? What do people really think of the matchup?

Caboose: we should have recorded -_-

Ganon's Arm is the same length as marth's sword i'd say that match-up is 55-45 marth's but I think it's stage dependent. Ganon is ridiculous.

about what pitzer said (i think its more 60-40 but "Mr. 5 Hits" has never been more appropriate than against marth)
one thing ether found out was to keep ganon above you. its scary because of the stomp but really when is he ever going to be able to get it out. DD grab, uptilt, sideB, fair, uair, counter, shieldgrab - there's a HUGE advantage to being under ganon

also keep in mind that its ganon's ARM (ie just his fair) that has the ridiculous range and even then anything you throw out intercepts it in time. this is more of a basic tip but if you can get it so ganon is approaching you with fairs you're in the clear. its much easier for you to bait as marth and DD grab than it is for ganon to bait a marth aerial and backwards-fair (dash attack and nair will many times catch ganon's foot on his way backwards)

also: because ganon F**KING BLOWS, you can just tech away from him at all times and he cant do jackcrap since he cant catch up to you

and finally, stop rolling to the opposite edge of the platform when you get hit onto one >_> i hit you with a LOT of dairs and upsmashes that way by reading your rolls


EDIT: btw if anyone has advice for the ganon in this matchup id appreciate it. i think im giving pretty OK advice for marths here but honestly i wouldnt know how to counter it @_@

EDIT EDIT: BUH. sorry to bother you rhan, but just wanted to make sure: what nights did you get the hotel rooms for? i found a post where you said friday/saturday night but the actual tourney is sat, sun, mon. does that mean you're not staying for finals?

Delayed getup attack + DI up is too good.

I was watching Linguini vs Colbol. Seems like all Ganons have no problem being patient and camping out others. Let's camp back. Wait for the first frame of movement. Attack then.

Yeah Friday night so we get rest before the actual tourney. And we're probably going to stay there Sunday til about... I wanna say 5 - 6pm. But Shae's driving so he decided what time me and him go back.

Reason we can't stay for finals and such is cuz Shae would have school in the morning.

But yeah that Friday night and that Saturday night of Pound.
