I do not have many opportunities to play outside the smash tournaments in Sweden. :(

What would you recommend me to practice alone with sheik? I'm techskilling fox and falco because it's fun but Sheik is just so ****ing boring to practice with T__T makes me sad cuz it's obviously the most fun char in vs :D

Right now I'm practicing wavelands, needle turn arounds, shino stalling and stuff like that.

Also I have another question about techchasing, isn't it better to always regrab? I mean because it's the safest and easiest one. This is PAL I'm talking about too remember so would be awesome if Amsah could give me his opinion in this matter. I'm feeling that at least in PAL to techchase with lets say upsmash you have to guess, with regrab you can do it on reaction which makes me think to play perfectly safe and optimal you should always regrab.

Also another question do you guys use the C-stick for all aerials? With most characters I use the C-stick but with Sheik I tend to use the A-button. o.O (except when fastfalling fair)

One of these days I'll create a tech skill video lol...

-Shinostalling on brinstar without getting hit by the lava
-bairing on yoshis and living (from the edge)
-runoff reverse needle turn around cancel
-pc edge hogging with fast fall
-needle cancelling>isai dropping>aerial
-shield dropping (you can also try running on the midlevel platforms of DL and shield drop>autocancelled fair)
-running off yoshis and nairing and living
-powershielding falco's lasers (granted it's much easier to do with another person)
-scar jumping on yoshi's
-learning the timing of Randall (on left side he's there for even ten's place digits and right side he's there for odd place ten's digits. Both sides he comes out on 5 and goes back in at 0)

Sorry about this being really disorganized. I just kind of put down all my thoughts in one place

My 1.5TB External Hard Drive that I didn't want to borrow to my cousin but did anyway because he kept bugging me, broke. =D

Laugh at me please, I lost a couple of years of my life.

Anyway, my set against Zgetto is on ajp's server http://ajpanton.se/ssbm/100430-ZEST5/
My set against Armada isn't though, and probably won't be for a very long time.

Well, back to crying in a corner again.

You might be able to recover it, not a hardware specialist, but there are some people who are incredibly good at that, best to try.



If not, sorry man, that sucks. Being a computer guy, I feel your pain.

If they DI away from your throw people have this crazy idea that they need to walk right up to Fox/Falco/Falcon to hit the regrab but you only need to walk forward a bit.

For behind and non-DI, idk. Just react well. Crouch in the face of non-tech covers everything but dashing out of duck is stupidly hard to do on command consistently (especially going backwards).

If I could empty pivot perfectly that would be so cool.
