lol, I blame Brawl for bringing out a bunch of new smashers.
Yep, I'm not gonna lie, that's why I'm here. I got into smash near the end of melee's life, started learning advanced techs and decided to give up since they were thrown out in brawl, even though I could do them.

Now that brawl came out I'm not forced to be incredible at abusing the game's physics to play competitively and play competitively I shall. Brawl's release was the best opportunity to get involved in this awesome smash community.

If by play competetively you mean camping and spamming projectiles >_>
Brawl is fun because it's broken... that's why I'm learning ICs. XD

Brawl requires just as much abusing of its physics as melee did, since there's less that you can do w/o abusing it.

You can abuse physics in brawl. The difference is that if you don't in brawl, you won't get completely ***** by people. In melee, if you couldn't even WD, your game is a joke.

The difference is that in Brawl, properly abusing the game engine leads to the only possible ways to utterly **** people with absolutely no chance of escape. In Melee, being unable to use advanced techniques simply limited your number of options of approach and defense.

Oh, I always looked at it. It was easier than trying to wade through Midwest for events. But I understand it can be a pain to collect everything.

Could you put me down for ICs/Shiek in brawl though? I feel left out.

Which tournament will have more people? The Ann Arbor Bi-Weekly tournament or the one in Holland?

I'm trying to decide which one to go to since they're both of Saturday. Anyone have any ideas?

Uhh, which one is closer? I can almost guarantee the CyGamZ tournament will have a bigger turnout, though.

Is cygamez the tourney that's this saturday?

And is there a post that describes it in more detail because I went to Rofa's biweekly but all I saw was stuff about the smashfest there...?
