Ok so that being said. SoHyli has used him to an extent. It hasn't caused him to get any further in tourney. (Other than teams with Sethlon I suppose. Probably would've gotten just as far anyways.)


He tried MK against me in tourney and got 3 stocked. He also lost to Santi at that same tourney using MK. I don't remember him using MK at all during HOBO 10.

Stuff like that. I see where you're coming from but MK didn't get him anywhere further than his G&W has. I honestly just feel anti-MK's are going a little overboard with it all. He's too good and probably ban worthy but hasn't really dominated Texas as much as some people have made it out.


Edit:

@Espy
People could misinterpret that Falcon is a big part of the success of Roy and I, us having used him in tourney, beating out the rest of Texas.

This is what I'm getting at. Hyli hasn't had the success he's had because of MK. He's gotten to that point because of his G&W and IC's.
Hylian has done better in several teams games (and I'd argue in a small handful of singles) because he chose MK. The main reason: counter pick stages. If we CP a stage that is bad for G&W (or really any char but MK), he will go MK because he has no bad stages.

Also, as soon as you or Roy beat anyone significant in tournament with Falcon, we'll add him to the list :p So far though, you're both losing to my Ganon! :)

Someone pooned out of my 25$ MM after he was shaking from a *cough*1 dollar*cough* MM with Hylian.

HOBO 12. It's on *****. :)

All you'd have to do is slap them with your Ganon balls.

You still pooned out. :p
And jump like a scared elementary schoolgirl when I honk horn.

Haha, I was nervous not because I had a lot of money on the line, but because people were placing side bets and most of them were on me. I would have caught so much **** if everyone lost money because of me :p
I can never be mad at you...ever.

You play an awesome Ganondorf. That not only makes you awesome, but allows me to disregard the fact that you've played MK here and there...

Although the latter is forever scarred into my mind...**** doubles...=P

I knew there would be talk.

First off, I would like to say that this list is definitly not as accurate as it should be. There are some obvious flaws, so take it with a grain of salt.

Infinity: I compeltely agree that you should be higher. I had you higher on my list, and so did Sethlon. We both had you above Seth even, it's just other people voted Seth pretty high so the points added up. Either way, I think you should be higher, but compare this list to the last one.
We REALLY needed an update and everyone was just arguing. So I set a deadline the posted it. From now on we are going to be more organized and update more often so we don't get into this mess. Because of this, the rankings will get more accurate as time passes.

Also, Hobo11 had a big impact on these rankings. It's the reason Roy is still first(2nd highest placing Texas, and M2K and Azen both thought he was the best player in Texas). It's the reason I'm still 4th(I was the 3rd highest placing Texan). I think every person voted for me to be 4th except 1 lol. I actually had myself under stiltz but stiltz convinced me otherwise >_>.

All in all, this list is much more accurate then the other one but still needs a lot of work. We will get on this **** this time ^_^.

He's got some good competitors for his spot though :D

Roy, dude if you can see this, if we make it to the Grand Finals at HOBO, just letting you know I am down with doing a Falcon Ditto or something like Ur Falcon vs My Ganon. :D

I can imagine getting that on Youtube and labeling it as the Grand Finals haha.

Lol pleasee you'd be lucky to even make top 20. XD
that's funny considering i don't really care about this game, i only play to have fun and trash talk. ;)

i'm sure if i used MK and got really good with him i could place high all the time.

btw, i was just kiddin' with DMG. i'm sure he has a great chance for top 2. :psycho:

Santi has the potential to go higher than 10th IMO, he's gotten a lot of brackets where he has to face Dojo or someone super hard within the first 2 rounds. He also

Now for Lee, his ROB is easily top tier, but his Ganon is lackluster. How he got 11th with those kinda balls is beyond me. :p

You have to look beyond placings.
Especially at HOBO's.

Nothing against Xyro, or any Htown people at this but the seeding is pretty poor. This past HOBO I played Santi 2nd round...

Only people who beat Santi consistently that we've seen is myself and DMG. Which he goes EXTREMELY close with us when he gets at it. He usually won't try much against me though. :\

He's also gone amazingly close with RoyR Stiltz and Sethlon. He's beaten out Hylian and I'm sure can take out almost any MK in Texas. Hell he took M2K to his last stock high percent. Santi places consistently high when seeded poorly picking up players in the top 5ish in early rounds of tourney.

Placings is just part of the PR. Consistency is an important factor, but seeing how you play against and compete against the other top players is IMO equally important.

I do place well and pretty high with the brackets I have to go through.
HOBO 11, I placed 17th out 112. Not to mention I had to play Dojo second round in the brackets. Then later lost to Roy_R in our third and final game.

The HOBO before that I did not place as high. I placed 25th. I went to losers bracket first round, then had to fight my way back and lost to Stiltz (who won that tourney) and lost to him in the third and final game. Olimar Vs. TL.

The San Antonio tourney after HOBO 10 I placed second behind Dojo. To get there I had to beat Hylian in losers finals and I won that 3-1.

I've defeated DMK in two straight tourneys in straight games both times. I've gone close to the one time I've played Sethlon in tourney losing in the third game. I've gone close with Gness, I've beaten Lee and many other good Texas players.

I'm consistent and I play well against top ranked players in the state. I've done well against players out of state as well when M2K and Azen came down.

If doing that doesn't qualify then I don't know what will...

Anyone on the panel accept checks?

You didn't come out of nowhere... You've been around for a while, have showed that you can compete with better players beating me, infinity and alot others, placed consistently high at all, and win a large majority of your local Dallas tourneys.

Nobody of this panel, to my knowledge, has seen Melee1 at a tourney in well over 2 months. We don't know how he would place against everyone else on here, and Fogo had already stated that Melee1 was pretty much out of the game. It's only natural we'd take him off. If and when he comes back, I'm sure he can probably make it back on here. He's obviously got the talent to do so.

Until the panelist becomes even remotely accurate. I would like to be removed from the Power Rankings.

I'd rather be ranked #15 on this list that not be on it at all (No offense to Gness at #15 lol).

I wouldn't care either way, to be honest. Hell, if anything it would be better not to be listed, cuz then the majority of Texans won't be expecting you to take their money :p

Its "List". LIST, curse you. Or 'power rankings list" for full. 'Panelist' is one of the people that contributes to make the list >.<.
