of course nationally we suck xD but so does majority of states I cant single us out
After traveling to national/ international tournaments I've come to the conclusion that I need to either:
A) Help everyone in this area who wants help become amazing
B) Quit
It sucks being the only person at MLG that says "YEAH!" when AZ asks "who's rooting for the Midwest?" But more important than that, we're stagnant. We're all so wrapped up about beating each other and winning $50 more than some other person every other week that we forget to come together and help each other out. We have Shugo (Falco), me (MK), Blue Rogue (Wario), YbM (Kirby and ZSS), Infern (Snake), and KB ( Peach). That's a huge diversity of characters. We should be able to travel to any other state and take out the best in that state of each of those characters I named (except maybe MK). Why can't we?
I believe the biggest reason is that we don't work together as a unit. There's little unity in our region as a whole. Look at New Jersey; they all have great pride in their area and will root hard core/ go on and on about how good their state is. We don't do that here. Instead we root for individual regions (Cincy, louisville area, NEOH, MI, etc.).
Anyway, what I'm going to do is ask any person who is willing to put the time and effort forth to become a top smasher to talk to me. Ask me questions. If we're at a tournament, I'll sit down with whoever is willing to learn and teach them habits I noticed, improvements they could make, or break down any match up into RPS terms if need-be.
I'm tired of Ohio being not a huge threat in the national tournament scene. I want everyone in our area to become good if they wish to become good. I'm essentially trying to do what seibrik did with Florida after he first jumped into the national scene and realized that he needed his area to become amazing if he were to ever become amazing. Now FL has tons of good players/ MLG pros. Ohio is next.
