Yeah, I'll send em to you over aim or something.
Plus it helps that EVERYTHING from that day will be on your channel.

@Jason: I'm going with Festizzio/Atlus/Embrace, and getting housing from Lanstar.
Thanks though!!! =D

if they know they're gonna get jab reset(ed...?), they can hold the stick and roll even if they get hit.
Jab does not make them stand up, it makes them do whatever input they're doing, and a lot of the time, it's up, or no direction at all (which = stand up).


I think. lol

for jab resets I never expect a normal get up unless they are in some high pressure teams situation or they are just plain noob

falcon's speed lets u simply wait and see what happens and then chase (or not chase) for a grab

This is my theory on jab resets:

if you jab them before they have a chance to move on their own, they do a slow stand up automatically (provided they are low enough percent of course, otherwise they are immediately standing without teching)

if they COULD have moved (roll/stand/getup attack) but didn't do a command right away, then when you jab them they will go whichever direction they are holding at the moment.



so basically if you're fast, they'll always stand up and you can **** them. but either way they have to tech so it's pretty easy to follow them



also if i recall correctly, most characters can be jab reset up to ~mid 30 percents, except for fox, who can be jab reset'd at like 70. which is great, or else what would puff do to beat fox lol, nair > jab > rest wouldnt work anymore

and dash attack

and grab

and slap and nair

@Kira yeah i know it's so hard as marth cuz his grab cant do as much damage as sheik can to marth and when ya playing someone like cam (good sense of spacing and amazing DI) it's horrible, depressing and makes me dont wanna play against his falco or sheik at all =(


@GSUB ahh thanks but no thanks...I'll play your peach (i dont need puff practice cuz i got the other cam to work it out)


@Rei I'm not going to play on friday night cuz i need to sleep in early and get up early to pick up Squid, kirbyraeg and JDM


@Kirbyraeg and Squid

Meet me at In N Out when i'm picking you guys up and i'll drop you guys off back there as i'm coming back from WGF

No matter how late or early I go to sleep before a tourney I end up waking up really early the day of.

I also found out if I don't have caluses on my left index finger my tech skill sucks. (Too much playing on a stick johns.)

you should be able to find some used ones (way better condition than us smashers leave them in at least n_n) at places like gamestop/etc.

I think they're selling thos old purple ones at GAMES 4 U.
not sure where you live though.
Best Buy, etc. usually will sell those new white ones.


I would sell you my silver one, which is beaten up, ugly, missing a rubber cap, and has non-official nintendo internal parts, but that would just be cruel... haha.

Gamestop sell horrible *** controllers

go to game for less, they have tri wing screw drivers, better controllers, N64 Controllers, some leftover parts here and there. I been getting my controllers from there alot

they sell the controllers for 15 bucks or less (i think they got the white controllers)

it's near Coast Mesa Mall (the manager is an ******* tho)

There one near the bella terra plaza (near Nickel nickel and toy r us)

The manager is so chill and stuff

There goes my secret go to store


off topic: if you're interested in japanese games, near mitsuwa, there's a place called marukai, next to it is a japanese book. inside that place they have japanese ds games, ps2 games, gamecube games, and cheap used (but good) condition mangas and DVD

Game for less also sell arcade sticks
