me and mr.L had a fairly big tourny yesterday

i made bracket, then got my salad tossed by MJG and Poke. i dont think i've ever been more PO'ed at myself in a tournament then i was yesterday

me and my partner Lamb did fairly well in doubles though

played Vinnie, great guy. almost got JV 4'ed against his ICs tho #superswag

i'm really, really bad at this game. but i was getting 5-6 firepunches a set so ROCK THE **** ON!

MJG is hard yo. Our matches almost go to time because I play super patient against him.

So I was watching YoshQ vs N.ear and I realized something that he didn't do that pretty much anyone should do to TL. When he's offstage with a bomb in hand, just smack the hell out of him. He's virtually defenseless save for the bomb that he has. Trading with him is far more beneficial for us too.
unfortunately TL can z drop the bomb and blow it up on us even that isn't much of a problem.

MJG was just flat out better than me, there wasnt a chance i was gonna beat him then. Poke i played out of pure frustration and it totally ****ed me in the end. i went marth vs. him too which is a terrible char to play with a ****ty mindset.

ah well, cant make excuses, i lost. just gotta bring it back next tourny. i more or less got over it when we made a 3am mcdonalds drive-thru and instead of rolling down the window, we used the sunroof. Nova Scotians are rowdy as all hell!

I have most of the things that I wanted to cover in the Luigi advance tech video recorded. All I need now is small examples of the uses for them.

I think I have some family up there. 1% likely chance of actually going though. The matter would be getting up to Toronto, to the venue, and the way back.

@YoshQ: as soon as I saw 30 seconds left with Near starting his last stock, I knew something funny was about to go down lol. Good stuff.

And Thunder, I'm not sure what you mean :( all i know about the commentary is White was bing drunk as hell and commentating with Croi, and it received either intense backlash or much love. Leave it to controversial Nova Scotians!

They do it around 1:38:30 and iirc they did it a few more times later on. Wasn't sure if it was something of theirs or a RoS-related thing.

Yo hippie, we should get megabus tickets and go to Impulse and stuff :D

Visual examples on how to use some of the the techs. But it's all up to the player if he wants to use them or if he wants to use them differently which is what I recommend. It could be perfected into a mindgame or something.

@ Zhao
If I can get things ready for that tourney I'll try coming. Also wow at Ultra luigi coming I thought he quit.

my luigi vs a marth (new player though so.. yeah... LOL)

but the vids from the tourney are coming up so when my set iwth DRN gets up i'll come back and link it!


oh, and theres horrible audio desync game 1 but it isn't that bad game 2
Hey word of advice, tilt your shield up at all times. Luigi's hat sticks out and it causes him to get shieldpoked alot. You should also practice doing Usmash/Nair OOS against people who commit to your shield.

I do Usmash mostly for characters I don't get in on too often. Such as Marth and MK. Nair OOS is a decent kill option, provided Nair isn't SUPER stale. Something I learned from Luigi dittos against Mr. ConCon is using Dsmash OOS. I need to implement that more into my game.

I need some up-to-date videos. Celes Laago Delta-cod tell Celestial Marauder Laago to record those replays namesearch bait.
Wait Delta has replays of you playing? Was this from apex?

Oh, and I'm still waiting for that replay of my falcon destroying you and Delta in doubles to be uploaded. Should be up soon :awesome:

Nair OOS seems useful, but upsmash oos and dsmash oos? er idk sounds painful to me. It sounds legit, but I've had bad experiences with this. I prefer either nair, up b, or cyclone OOS.

What techs? Maybe I can find some examples in videos I have. Other people should look through any videos they played in as well.
I'd appreciate the help, but idk if you would have replays of what I need, but I think you might have or at least I took this from you. reverse fireball to the stage and bair to get onto the stage. Otherwise I don't think you have techs/ gimmics like these v
-Retreating jabs (need to get this)
-the importance of crouch walking ( I have this)
-cyclone rising baiting (I have this)
-Luigi ledge get ups ( not sure if I have this)
-OOS up b( I have this)
-combos that end with misfire( I have one example, but I need a better example)
-using Fingerbanging ( need to get this)
- any form of luigi's approaching is legit( I have this)

i do alot of weird stuff because i play against biglou alot so i copy his stuff lolololol

I noticed this so much lol.

Also yeah Luigi v.s Marth or mk are hard mus. But nowadays I don't think the marth mu is as hard as people make it to be. Mk is just mk, but lol fsmash killing at 90%.

You could maybe include this for ledge getups/options. Obviously the marth shouldn't have been that close to the ledge but the general AD buffer from ledge concept can still be applied imo

Would you need more stuff for things you already have something for? And are you including b reversing/b turning?

nope no b reversing, but just that one thing you told me. hmm checking this video.

Edit
eh idk I'm not really into the airdodge buffer stuff. I knows it's there, but I don't know how to use it properly.

As for the ledge get up. I'll use it
