Maybe I'll join the next one. I'm glad it worked out for you. From my experience, when people try to setup online tournaments with preregistering (as opposed to making a bracket on the spot based on whoever shows up during a time frame) it never works out well. People are late, don't show up etc.

Out of curiosity does Xadrin post here? And who does he main? Congrats to him for winning.
It started out VERY shaky for that very reason, but I managed to weed out the no-shows pretty quickly. Also, the ones who showed up late and forfeited their first set were very understanding when they had to start in losers bracket, so that helped haha. I'd love to see you in Bacon Invitational 2 (BI2) :p

Xadrin does post here occasionally, and he went Kirby in the later rounds. He was the one responsible for knocking me out, since Kirby is one of my weaker match-ups as a Wolf main

Alright. Hosting.
GGz man! Every single game I would rack you up to around 150% and then you just never ever died and usually ended up killing me even sooner. My bro mains Luigi so im pretty good with that matchup, but his jabs seemed like they had a hit box 20 ft from him it was weird af lol.

Yes I can imagine Kirby is quite good at gimping Wolf. On stage though I think the matchup is pretty even if not in Wolf's favour. I can't say I've played Xadrin, I've played most of the regulars here at some point or another.

Anyway, in about 30 minutes I'll be free to play if you want Bacon. You can see how you stack up against me now, I haven't been practicing but I'm sure you have.

GGs. DIng propertly can help save you from KO at that percentage. It also helped that I had used heavy based characters like Ganon and Ike. They are a bit harder to KO if you upsmash them.

Kirby has his chain-grab on Wolf for about 46% or so. That's one advantage Kirby has on stage, I'd say the rest is pretty even as well haha. Alright, I'll play you for a bit, lemme know when you're ready~

Oh right, I forgot susceptible Wolf is to chaingrabs. Fair enough. I'll be ready to play in about 10 minutes.

GGs man, it was nice getting to play you again after months of training haha. Still no match for your MK though xD I'd play longer if I didn't spend all day in a tournament haha. Maybe you'll join my next one? Until next time~

Sure, just a couple more though

Anybody up to play tonight? Basic Brawl is looking a bit dry.

Well it's getting late now, you should have asked earlier lol. Maybe tomorrow. Also my MK is pretty meh, I just get away with nonsense due to wifi+MK.

Speaking of which Bacon GGS but lag really ruined some of those. I can't even do DDD's CG on Wolf in that kind of lag and even punishing something as simple as getup attacks (which I knew you'd do every single time I was close to the ledge) becomes hard. In case you were wondering why I barely punished those...

I can see you've improved a ton but keep in mind some of the things you do a lot will simply not work offline. I'm glad to see you've finally gotten rid of that bad rolling habit for the most part and your spacing especially in the air is better than ever. I was impressed by these aspects from you despite the lag.

Was trying to hype you up bro, very nice to see you here! :) Alright brother! You enjoy the rest of your night. Good day~

Well I'm a pretty blunt honest guy. I know for instance, like half my fraudulent wins with MK wouldn't be happening offline. I think your Ike especially would destroy him offline, if I would have any chance to beat it, it'd probably be with Diddy Kong.

The most annoying part of lag I find is you try to play honest and you might get PUNISHED for trying to play smarter lol.

Anyway, good night to you as well. Have a good one.

I'll play some if you want.
Sorry, I got caught up playing with someone else I accepted a request for. We can just settle on rotations I guess, I just took it you joined because you thought a FFA was going on (someone was just spectating my games with the Kirby).

Oh and another aspect I forgot to mention Bacon you've definitely improved a ton on is recovering. I only managed a few gimps this time around. Granted it was extra laggy but all the same you were definitely mixing it up a lot better than I've seen you do previously.

Oh. whoops I can leave. I thought we'd do teams or something. I'll play against sass.

Brawl anyone?
I'll play

GG's @ Sassafrassa Sassafrassa You've got a good Jigglypuff and Sheik especially (and a lucky DeDeDe seeing as how I SD'd so many times against him lol he's actually pretty good too though). You roll a bunch though. I knew each time you'd roll. If I were better at this game you'd get hit a lot more for creating openings for me like that.

I'll play you, DAS. ^___^
GGs Matsu sorry for any that lag there. Good comeback on that Toon Link vs Marth match it completely fell apart there lol.

Didn't know you played Zelda I think. She was easing her way back on Marth that last match.

It was great playing you and your characters again. Peach seemed to had surprised you there.

Edit: Double post by mistake wasn't even thinking oh well.

Good games! Omg I literally sprung off my bed and started dancing when I actually beat your Toon Link haha.
Yeah, I recently started picking her up, hehe. Didn't go so well for me though, but ah well.
Awww, it was great seeing your characters, too! And yeah, your Peach did surprise me, a lot. I got rather overwhelmed by your skills that I kinda just ended up staring at the screen in awe. But I took a few mental notes in my head on how you used her, so hopefully the Peach beating you gave me meant something! ^___^
But once again, good games! You were absolutely amazing out there.
Oh, and out of curiosity, how long have you been playing Brawl?

I'm pretty sure you were happy about that match and it was good match too lol. I had it, but it start gradually slipping from hands then bam tipper lol.

One victory can become many in the future.

It wasn't a bad try with her at all especially with you recently picking her. Peach my gal, and I was going to show what's in my bag of tricks lol.

Its good to take things from matches though it helps in the long run. Character or tactics doesn't matter its all help. Thanks for the compliments as well.

I've had this game since April of 2008, but I started playing online in late 2010.

Basically years my friend lol.
