Shoutouts!!!

Keitaro - Thank you so much for being such a great host during my adventure to the East Coast. :bee: I look forward to flying out to your region's tourneys in the future. :cool: I wish we had a chance to play each other though....Fox vs Falco is one of my favorite MUs.

Nakat - I swear you are like MJG but with Fox. I learned a lot with patience watching some of your matches. I'm salty we never got go 1 v 1 with each other though...

JBandrew - You are amazing with any character you play. I hope my advice for playing Fox expands your arsenal of ownage. :cool:

Y.B.M. - It was my first time teaming up with a Kirby/ZSS so I didn't know what to expect. I liked what I experienced though :bee:. I'm sorry we didn't get as far in team bracket like we had hoped for. Maybe we can avenge ourselves and team up again in the future.

Dojo - Again we never got our money match...salt...

Ultimate Razer - Gah... Aggro Fox vs Aggro Snake money match will have to be another time...(again)....ugh.

Lee Martin - Good stuff to see you still play smash occasionally. I'm sorry we never got our money match in....I had to catch my flight back home...Maybe in the future if you or I come around?

Tyrant - Why so mean...? lol Just kidding. It was great seeing you again. We need to get our money match in next time though. Train up! ;)

Esam - Man, after watching you beast in that ICs ditto, I'm more hyped than ever to play either your Pikachu and/or ICs. Good stuff man!

ADHD - Glad to see the ZETON tag gave you some Z-Factor in some of your matches. Also our money match was....********. lol I had a blast. :cool: Maybe we can team sometime in the future.

Atmsk - I'm sorry that you so much bad luck at this tournament...I wish and hope that you will stick around the smash scene even with all the bs that happened here...:( If you figure out who the bad guys are that caused all this, let me know, and I'll upsmash them in real life for you. ;)

Old Man Grey - It was great fighting you in pools, and chatting with you for a bit. You're a pretty cool chill guy. :cool:

Zero - Great friendlies. I wish I could of had the chance to money match you as well. Your MK is FAST! :)

Kain - Time Rivals going in. I had a blast teaming up with you for the short time we had in friendlies. Our combos were hilarious and fun. We need to team in bracket sometime.

Ally - Ugh...We never got our money match...Oh the flip side though, it was awesome as hell to see you Snake in action again! It's my inspiration for my Fox. No joke. :cool:

Poyo - Your Kirby caught me off guard. I didn't know Kirby was capable of all the stuff you performed on me. I loved our set we had and hope to get friendlies with you in the future. :bee:

Smiley - You are pretty legit. It just seems you lack experience in most of the match ups you play, but that will come in time. I look forward to fighting you again. :cool:

Vermanubis - I'm sorry we never got a chance to play each other. I watched someone of your matches however and want to play you more than ever. We need to get our set in sometime in the future. :)

Morks - I'm happy to see that my advice helped you out some. Just keep practicing and you'll be top names in no time. Also your Yoshi is legit. :cool: See you in the future.

KassandraNova - I wouldn't worry about what or who you look like. People should like you for being you, so I wouldn't fret over that factor. :) See you next time.

Inui - It was great to see you and play some friendlies with you again. Your Wario has a good start, just need to be more patient with your attacks. Looking forward seeing your improved Wario later. :)

Hall - I never had to think twice where I stepped or ran to during a match with someone. There was a trap where ever I went. It was epic. I wanna play you more in the future. :)

Trevonte - I watched your set with Dojo in bracket. I think my Fox vs MK meta game knowledge leveled up like 10+ times. If you sit down with me with your vs MK meta game I'll tell you all you need to know about the CG or bs match ups? :cool:

Trump - Why are you always trump facing man? Lol. For real though it was great seeing you again. We should get some Fox ditto friendlies next time! :cool:

ED - Your Sheik is amazing
and hilarious
. I would love to play you more in the future (even though Fox vs Sheik is ...yeah.) I had a great time playing you. :)

Mr. R - You know...I think the fact I didn't know who you were when I money matched you better my chances since I had no pressure/fears fighting you lol. I see you have a Snake as well. I'd like to fight that too sometime.

K Prime - Glad to see you are starting to overcome your fears when playing in matches. Remember that you have nothing to lose in a match on a video game. If people drop you as fan/friend because you lose a match, they aren't really loyal people to be around. Your real fans/friends will be supporting you for who you are not what you are capable of. See you next time! :cool:

Cheer - I'm sorry you never had a chance to play me in friendlies. I actually need the ICs experience so I'm a bit salty as well (as crazy as that sounds). Oh well maybe another time.

M@v - I'm sorry we never had a chance to get some friendlies. I plan on traveling outside my region more so maybe we'll get a chance another time :)

Toronto Joe - Good work in pools. You shut down my Fox pretty good. We need to get some more matches in sometime. I think fighting a MK that used to play and/or knows how to play Fox would be good for me. :)

Dark Peach - You spelled my name wrong. Lol. But really props to you for not only keeping up with my Fox, but actually tiring ME out as well. Your a very fast, techincal Peach. Don't get so down on yourself over your loses though. You will learn and figure out a way to overcome them in time. :)

Ocean - I love your R.O.B. I discovered and pulled off some new tricks and gimmicks during our money match. Good stuff fighting M2k as well. I can't wait to fight you again. :cool:

Otori - I'm sad we never got a set in. To fight a Japanese Meta Knight is intriguing to me. :)

Karamity - Great to finally meet a Japanese Fox main. I'm sad we never got a set in though....next apex?

To all Japan players: Arigatou!

It's actually 100% false lol

I picked DDD game one, ***** him, game 2 wanted to warm up luigi for kakera's IC's but lost barely, then game 3 won with DDD on frigate, somebody told me it got cleared up though, but he took it offensive when it happened, I wasn't counterpicking him at all lol. He was only mad because he thought I was sandbagging vs him, which I actually wasn't and he almost beat me because I tried luigi.
Your character button was on Marth at game 1. Plus you were discussing for like 10 minutes with your partner which character you should pick. I felt like being counterpicked, I also told you that if you wanna counterpick me, I want a double blind pick. You answered that you don't want a double blind pick because you did not want to counterpick me, that's true. But it's also true that you tried to misfire me several times. :) "Spam misfire" is not true though.
It's okay though. I told you that I don't like you, it's just because you were a bit different from the others and I felt like you wanted to troll me with Luigi because of trying to misfire me several times. =) It was just a feeling of disrespect for me.
I was just pissed because of the things I've mentioned above and talked about them with Tekkie. I'm pretty sure that he misunderstood, because I never said that you were playing Marth (to anybody, and I've talked about those things with plenty of people). Just to clear things up. I don't want anybody to think that I'm a liar, neither you, nor Tekkie.

@Tekkie: I'm pretty sure that you misunderstood me. I wanted to tell you that his character button was on Marth, but he was still discussing with his partner.

Before I get to shouts, I would like to apologize to Hylian and America for shaming myself in All-Brawl sudden death against Mr-R. I must commit sodoku to redeem myself for my shameful failure. :glare:

Shoutouts:
Biddy: You were really sincere and I'm glad to know you had a blast at Apex. I'm glad I help and it was great to meet you. Hope you make it to the next major tourney.

Doll666: You're always so cheery. It was a pleasure just to meet you again!

Fyre: Wohman, though you may have escaped my anger and fury this time, I'll be keeping a close eye to capture your next failure. It was great to meet my determined apprentice though. Also...West Coast!

Hall: Even though I only met for about the short span we spent at the hotel, you were a really nice and hilarious guy. It was great rooming with you but I hope the 5 time formerly defeated rock, paper, scissors champion gets his revenge back.

Havok: It was nice to see you again but I'm sadden that we didn't get to play that set I've always wanted.

MikeHAZE: It was great to met you and have you signed me shirt.

Morks: It was fun playing you in pools, That Yoshi/G&W match was hype.

Oats: As you greatly helped me get to Genesis 2, I'm glad I helped with at least room. It's a blast talking with you. Just hope you didn't catch anything when you went clubbing. :laugh:

Tearbear and Zekey: It was a godsend that we had the same flight as I didn't how to get to the venue and all that. It was great hanging out with you guys and it was great rooming with you guys. Also, I'm glad you found your wallet.

tekkie: It was great to meet you again though shame the rest of NM didn't make it. I had fun playing you and that was a nice Wolf.

Tyrant: Why do you keep forgetting my name? :(

Ussi: It was fun teaming up even though we didn't make it. Thanks again for teaming with me.

Walker: As with tekkie, it was great to see a familiar face. Too bad we didn't play any friendlies.

Zeton: Boy, did you whoop me bad. It was still great to play you and give me critique and advice for my characters. You were a really cool guy and I hope we can play each other again.

I would also like to give special thanks to all those who signed my shirt:

sorry, i was looking at the situation from a competitive stand point.


i was just so shocked that so many people knew/liked OCEAN enough to root him on against our own players.....

i was also shocked that those same people got salty that japan won Apex.

it just seems a lil contradicting

Salty in what way? I'm hearing a lot of "we have to get better than Japan" but no "Japan didn't deserve to win".

^ are u serious right now?

have u not seen almost EVERYONE saying they want salty runbacks?

or that EVERYONE wants to go to Japan in August for that big national?

im sure Japan has had ALOT more nationals that not many americans have made a big deal about going to... but its funny how everyone wants to go now.

hmmmmm.... sounds like sodium to me.



salty doesnt mean someone saying " Japan didnt deserve to win"

u can be upset they won, even if u know they played well. Thats just how people are.

Im sure people were Salty that LSU lost to Alabama, but everyone knows Alabama played good as hell.

I don't see the issue, here. Would it have been better if Japan lost, therefore we don't want revenge and have less motivation to make it out to Sun Rise Tournament? Like, yeah, people cheered for Japan, and Japan won, and people want their rematch, but I don't see how any of that contradicts itself.

Were you at the tournament? Most people were happy/impressed/awed with the japanese winning.

Smashboards and Facebook tell a different story.

maybe the lost just needed to settle i guess.


@ sight- All im saying is its weird that people were so in love with OCEAN enough to root on them against one of our best players, but then have different opinions when the japanese won Apex. if ur not seeing the same post on smashboards as I about the matter, then you wont understand and we can drop it.

It's like me playing peach in melee, and rooting Armada on vs Dr.peepee ( whom lives in my state) but then get mad that Europe took home the gold.

People aren't getting mad, you are just misinterpreting posts. The vast majority of the people at apex were excited that the japanese won from what I could tell.

It was also a ROB player and no ROB in the history of the North American scene has come close to beating M2K in a match, let alone a set. It was hype, + a lot of people don't like Jason because whenever he gets put in a pressure situation he plays like a ****** and has invented/exploited a lot of things about the game that ended up making people want to ban MK. I guarantee you that if every MK played more like Nairo/kakera/Otori nobody would be *****ing about the ban. They were ****ing amazing and hell yeah I want another shot to beat them (Although Japan is mad pricey, so **** that). Am I salty I lost to them? Hell no! I got outplayed by both of them because they are the 2 best players I have ever played ever and they deserved to win. You have to remember that, as I mentioned earlier, people just don't like M2K. I was rooting for him, but I definitely wasn't sad that he lost because it was still a good match/interesting outcome.

The reason no American's EVER held interest in going to Japan is because their tournaments don't have money prizes: It is more for rankings/honor. American's don't care enough about honor to go there, spend a crap-ton of money with 0 potential monetary gain, knowing that EVERYTHING you spend puts you negative for the trip. We don't have as much honor when we play as the japanese, hence our "Play to win" attitude. Any time I saw a japanese MK (Otori/kakera/Rain) on the ledge is because it wasn't safe to go on, not because they were trying to time them out. M2K tried to time out Ocean, he DID time out Z (twice), and he has timed out numerous people over the course of Brawl's career.

So please, actually know what you are talking about before you start spouting ****. THere are obviously SOME people that are salty, but they are probably mid-level players who don't have a chance at beating them anyway. I know most of the top players are more "Damn I wanna play them again" not "I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY BEAT ME I'MA **** EM UP"

What Esam said 100%. I myself wasn't rooting for Ocean, but there should be no surprise that most were rooting against M2K. If it was Ally I'm sure it would be a different story.

Which would you rather deal with? M2K or Otori?

I'd choose Otori a million and one times.
That's basically saying," You want to die quick and painless or die very slow and painfully?" :awesome:

Yes it does. If you lose to Otori, it meant that you were sitting next to Otori while losing.

I'm neutral when it came to that match but when I heard ocean took game one from M2K I already predicted who was winning the set hence why I was not over there rooting for either of them. I'm not getting beat up for taking sides lol.
