from the first tourny i was at this weekend i have learned one thing more then anything
that be spacing
ok their is a story to this and how spacing (almost) saved my soul
i was at my first tourny at a college they had huge projector screens and the format was ideal (for me anyways) there were about 50 people there and the re were elimination rounds
i blew through the first matches without losing a stock (people don't know how to take olimar
) ) but anyways the semi final was cake as well
i was pretty sure i was going to win the last match was 5 match best out 3
i was fighting snake on Final destination i figured i would camp at the the side and SH pikmin toss but he kept mortar sliding me and finishing me off with his tilt and we would spot dodge my attacks/shield grabs/pivot almost every time
least to say he 2 stocked me
2nd match was the same Sept it was on the animal crossing stage
he had one stock left this time because i charged my attacks witch threw him off
then finally the third match (ohh nooooooo) that when it hit me that my spacing was alllllll messed up i want using my reach to my advantage so i adjusted my smashes maybe a cm father away then i normally would do and stayed in the middle of the stage just doing that i avoided his mortar slide and punished him with pivot grabs every time he did it
i spaced my smashes so the would just nick him even when i did that i only won by one stock
but a victory it was
the 3rd match was on battle field and i just rinsed and repeated he stopped mortar rolling so i just pikmin tossed him i think it messed him up because i won with 2 stocks left
the final match
he switched to flaco early in the match he gimped me.........
other then that im used to fighting flaco and i managed to get him equal with me we were both on our last life and he just happened to hit me with a fully charged smash because i TRIPPED
but anyways it would of been a nice story if i won but i learned the value of spacing your attacks
sorry if it was sorta long i won 25 bucks so at least it was worth it
