He's not! This character sucks!
Addy I've heard of but haven't really seen anything of him, thought he was just a wifi wonder. Never heard o Isotaku, but I don't really keep up with the Japanese scene at all.What do you think of Addy and Isotaku? I think both of their DDD's are better / on par with Zekey.
It's really hard to judge international players

Because Dedede is very character dependent. Zelda has the options to actually do well because she's only slow in mobility and fast in attacks while D3 is not good with camping nor speed. Zelda can chain a lot of things against D3 and shes a lucky ***** weighing 85 so she can't get chaingrabbed, while Squirtle gets ****ed by his **** air release, Sakurai trolled Melee competitive players by not letting Puff DI out of D3's d throw despite being a lightweight, and for the rest get ****ing chaingrabbed out of D throw.
Basically Zelda is hella lucky to the point where it kind of pisses me off (But I don't really care). It looks pretty even though. There are other matchups like that like Yoshi vs Wario, DK vs Marth, etc. (For lower tier vs higher tier counters)
D3 is only good because of like beating the **** out of Wario and Wolf. Also for beating mid and low tiers so well. Basically the ultimate shutdown character.

What makes you like Ness?
It feels weird, because my two favorite characters in Brawl have been Dedede and Ness and then you're in the same region and I'm all WELP
Not that it matters, I hardly play anymore.

Ness fits my playstyle a lot better than DDD, to be truthful. I'm an aerial pressure player, but the reason I don't like Metaknight is because his aerials--except nair--don't FEEL strong. They're not satisfying. Everyone of Ness' aerials has an oomph to it, and they can be strung together very well. I wish Jigglypuff was better in Brawl, because I'd probably use her.
I started maining Lucas in Brawl when I first started with DDD as a second. Then someone pointed out how I occasionally lost with Lucas, but never with DDD, so I stuck with him. I put more time into Ness eventually because he was my N64 main and I LOVE the Mother series. I honestly think Ness is way better for my style, and WAY better at high-level events when you're running into top tier matchups all the time, but he's going to take just as much work and dedication as my DDD did to get to that top level.

Top 3 guaranteed today?
And did Danny ask you about coming to my graduation party? Yes or No to coming? I need a head count.

What's your favorite stage?
What made you want to play competitive smash?
What drove you to become a top player?
How did you do at the tournament you were at yesterday? There is no bracket and I didn't watch the stream so I don't know.

1) Smashville. Lot of history on that stage from training, it just feels like my "home." It's MD/VA's favorite stage by far, Chu and I always agree to SV-only matches when we play, and I'd do that with (almost) anyone else I play.
2) I played Melee casually with friends and was always the best out of them...they weren't much challenge, but I was VERY behind Melee's metagame and was intimidated by the whole thing (thought M2K, for instance, was older than me, then came to found out he's actually one or two years younger LMFAO), so I decided I would start fresh with Brawl. Lucky for me it was a LOT less technical, so I just kinda stuck with it. Just wanted to see how far I could go.
Oh and, funny story, I also saw these personal invites that VideoGameBootCamp were sending out for Brawl Til You Fall, one of my first tournaments. They sent them out to the top 5 of each character, they were these neat little graphics with the player's name and their character and stuff. I always wanted to have one of those. What's funny is that now GIMR and Aposl, the co-founders of VGBC, are two of the coolest people I've met from Smash.
4) I did okay! I got third, but I was kind of disappointed because I lost to Chu twice. The first set was really, REALLY close, with both of us at 180% for literally about two minutes on game 3, but I cracked under the pressure and hit his grounded shield with bair, a TERRIBLE idea. When we played again later in loser's finals I wasn't as focused and got 3-0'd.
Was nice to win teams though. Boss and Chu beat Inui and M2K at Xanadu only a few weeks before, so it was really nice to beat them to win teams.

Same way you deal with a campy anything else...just be patient, bide your time, and take your opportunities when you can.
I can't, then...I'd like to, but I have rehearsal that night I think.May 21st at 5 PM at my house.
But I might not! I'm only in the first act of my new show, so if it's an act two rehearsal I'll definitely be there. Sorry I can't give you a more definitive answer.

Why does no other Dedede do video critiques?
Also, should I keep doing them? If I'm giving flawed information then I want to stop immediately.

I mean, of course I can't speak for anyone else but, I personally don't do them because I'm very bad at technical, objective critique. Like "you should have done this or that," I'm bad at that, I only know what I would do and it's usually pretty sub-optimal.
Do what makes you happy! If you're helping people out and if they're responding positively (i.e. posting matches for you to critique), keep it up.

How would you handle characters that can projectile camp, then run away like Pka and Falco. I know you can get a uptilt when they try to phantasm/quick attack. But, there pull me in so close I can't react and I'm stuck shielding. If I sit far away trying to bait them to go pass me they just keep camping.
Also, what are some common situations MK's like to use nado in? I'm having trouble uptilting it.
