most importantly:
shyg, why did you get kicked out of treasure chest?!
secondly:
i want to stop playing so many games and do more important things. im leaning towards music theory and making reggae and dub. i was really pissed off last night about how i could have used all the time i put into melee, to get good at something that actually mattered. now im going with the 'it's not to late and melee is fun' attitude. i'll probably never do anything, but it's just fun to be excited about something.
thirdly,
wtf it's snowing.
lastly:
i didnt quit brawl because of metaknight at all. while it was frustrating to play mks because i only play marth and i think while marth is a really good char, that particular match up isn't so hot, i only remember once MAYBE twice getting frustrated playing vaughn's mk. it was mostly because of his attitude about it: 'im going to pick mk and be as ghey as i can to show yall how stupid top tiers are.' in general, i just dont like the slow speed and lack of combos. the fact that it's not technical doesnt really bother me. i think both games require the same about of real skill, i just think melee takes a little more practice. it's like, at the peak level of play in melee, tech skill shouldn't even be factored into who wins. the best melee players will be generally perfect in their tech skill, and the smartest player will win, like in brawl (excluding char match ups but that is different). like i said, game speed and combos made the difference. if they had made brawl with auto l cancels and x as the wave dash button, i would have still loved it. brawl lacks the reasons i started playing melee so i dont like to play it. i truly believe though that at a peak level of play, both games require equilivent amounts of skill; which is why, lee is still the best. and in (literally) 2 days of playing i got like second or 3rd in a la tourney.
p.s. i was messing around with sf: 3rd strike for a while in anticipation for sf:4 but with my new pledges to have more important hobbies and everyone moving out of this house so i wont have an xbox to play on, idk how much i'll be playing. im not quitting games or anything, i just don't want it to be my main hobby.
end (too good. i hope freddy loses his money matches lol. just because it will be funny, not that i dont like freddy or anything.)
edit:: it's snowing like balls outside. freddy just snowballed me in louisiana. is that like getting 4 stocked? this is the time for remembering events. who remembers when i almost 3 stocked john's marth with DK at dibbs. i beat kyle so john starts talking shy like 'dk too easy' so we play and i pwn him so bad the first 3 stocks. the crowd was going nuts. combo to dk punch. he ended up barely winning and it suked, but the match was pretty legendary.
