Oh.
MY SIDES! OH GOSH MY SIDESRed/Pokémon Trainer new final smash:
Version exclusive Final Smashes confirmed.Red/Pokémon Trainer new final smash:
Juan (H-Box) is a great player, don't get me wrong. He's one of the Florida homies. However, I feel like a lot of his success derives from the fact that ABSOLUTELY NO ONE PLAYS THE ****ING PUFF MATCH-UP RIGHT (I groused about this earlier on). I know he's been placing better than M2K in the past couple of years (off and on), but M2K is STILL the better player overall because he has the results to back up his gameplay. Even at his best, Hungrybox has come nowhere NEAR M2K in terms of wins/losses overall. I'd definitely put M2K over Hungrybox.
I don't have much to say here. I thought M2K's two (three?) year reign was pretty impressive, especially during that period where he consistently placed first at both Melee AND Brawl events.
*smacks.* John, I love Melee, but can you stop saying **** like this? Lmao. That's not necessarily true. Barlw may not be as deep a game as Melee, but it is possessed of its own nuances and is a technical (I use this term loosely, mind) game in its own right. There are a lot of smart players in the Brawl community. Dr. Mario Guy, or DMG, is a very knowledgeable player that really knows his stuff about the mechanical and mental aspects of Barlw and Smash in general.
I'll agree with you about Isai and team play. Him being dominant in Melee? Nah. That distinction will always belong to Ken and the various other players of that era (PC Chris, Korean DJ, M2K, et cetera).
Hey, Sheep Man has a really cool stage.It certainly is. Woke up one morning to discover I had built this:
Don't even get me started on what drove me to build Plant Man.
Jedi made the same mistake, and so did I. You're not alone.
H-Box is one of many names I could have written, but there are many players who could go up "above" M2K.
But it wasn't anywhere near the dominance we saw from Mango pre-Armada and Armada during the last 2 or so years of just re-crafting the meta-game.
It's a fact Brawl is a less deep game than Melee in basically every aspect. I've had many top ranked BRAWL players tell me that. That's not to say the game isn't technical; it is. It just it's basis is a form of fighting that largely revolves around not fighting.
He was a top tier player (not the top tier player) for years (arguably top 5 for quite a while), and he was the best team player player for about half a decade. That combined with going pretty much undefeated for the longest time is amazing. It was an unprecedented streak, the likes of which we'll never see again in smash.
What is this and how do I get it in my life=???Red/Pokémon Trainer new final smash:
You absolutely need a Pokemon Trainer that jumps out of the DS and starts dancing to complete your life?
Charmander would be better.Alternate Final Smash:
Yes. Yes I do.
But the pun wouldn't work.
Can it possibly be any worse than the Tingle/Waluigi hybird?
The operative statement is "could go up above." Do you honestly see anyone as being better than M2K right now that isn't PP, Armada, or Mango? Name one that isn't Hungrybox.
I dunno, kicking pretty much everybody's ass and placing 1st in Melee and Brawl in every other event is pretty damn dominant. I'll concede, though: Pre-Armada Mango, Armada, and Golden Era Ken were more dominant overall.
Yeah, and I've read the same damn thing mentioned by said top ranked Brawl players, too. Some of them laugh at how busted their game is. It is a shallower game, mechanically-speaking. Still, top Brawl players aren't dumber or less capable because of this; their skillset simply differs.
Fair point. I forgot about the undefeated streak.
TOO BAD. WAL-CHARMANDER TIME!
Lol. I was just testing to see how the image looked. It works.
As a Pokemon Trainer main, I approve.Red/Pokémon Trainer new final smash:
I've seen that before.
It says Yellow Alloy, not Pokemon Trainer...
There are two Pokemon Trainers on the same screen? And they're both the same color?
It's his secret identidy.
It's just a Yellow Alloy that stole another Pokemon Trainer's body in an desperate attempt to become playable.
Clones are more fun.
Alloys are upset they can't be the same kind of clone.
Oh whao.And now, I must leave you with this last image:
The OLD bottom tier. Nowadays, Mewtwo is almost Mid Tier I believe?While Melee is far from perfect, so far out of all the people left, we have the following characters as main characters or prominently used characters by people who are still alive in EVO in Melee:
-Fox, Falco, Sheik, Marth, Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff, and Peach players galore (7 characters).
-Quite a few Ganondorf, Dr. Mario, Samus, Young Link, Ice Climber players, including my pal Chok!!! (5 characters).
-A select few Mario, Luigi, Pikachu, Donkey Kong, and Zelda player(s) left. (5 characters).
That is at least 17 of the 26 characters, if not 18 or more characters, being represented in the quarter-finals. That's a pretty good margin. Considering 2 characters are vastly inferior to similar characters (Roy to Marth, Pichu to Pikachu), 17 out of 24 is pretty good of characters left.
That is also not counting players who have played other characters in tournaments recently (ie: Taj, who plays Marth and Mewtwo who made), but only characters that will definitely be pulled out.
Heck, that one super good G&W might still be left, Bowser if Gimpyfish survived somehow, one of the few Link players who possibly snuck in, one of the few Yoshi players who may have survived, and Taj, who as previously mentioned could pull out Mewtwo in the right situation.
Also, today on the streams I literally saw every character... minus Mewtwo, Mr. Game & Watch, Pichu, Kirby, and Link, and I know for a fact at least one person played Mr. Game & Watch for legit and several people played Link.
So that means literally every character but 3 maximum weren't played (Pichu, Kirby, and Mewtwo, aka the bottom tier).
Mario wins at the end
I missed that you were talking to Swampasaur about Smash and not about the movie.
