Wazzup? LashD094 here. Me and my friends have discovered a powersource for our smash abilities. Last night (lol i'm saying last night cuz it's 12:30 am right now) me and Brawler17 went to our friend's(PyroChameleon) house to have some fun. We ate some pizza and then started up some Melee matches. While i was playing we turned on some music. before this i was actually losing pretty bad to the CPU. HOWEVER, when U Can't Touch This started playing, i sent the computer from 20% to 97% in about 5 seconds flat. Even i was in shock over it. Brawler17 and i fought while playing Dragonforce and he actually beat me (which is a rare occasion for him)! As for Pyro he seemed to do better while listening to some annoying acapella group. Regardless of the song choices, we now believe that everyone has a smash song that may seem to help them during Melee matches. We haven't tested out Brawl yet but we might be on to something. Try listening to ur favorite songs while smashing. i wanna hear what u think! <(^_^)b

Hmmm... I agree that there are things out there that can help "root" you in the moment. And I have always felt a deep connection with Music, so this doesn't surprise me in the slightest...

Still, I've always felt that (with my ADD mind) music distracts me from high-intensity things like Brawl (never played competitive melee much)... This is something I might look into.

iPod + Brawl for God tier.

This thread had my hopes up that someone would finally have a blog valuing music over human life other than me

Stage music hack is God-tier!!!

Tries playing with rock music...nope, I tend to play agressive more with a lot of SD.

I only play well with powerful instrumental orchestral music.

While i have replaced over half the songs on Brawl with my own that doesn't seem to help me. Only when there are no sound effects is there a change in my abilities. Thankfully there is the magic of options to turn it off.

This is off topic but.....
OMG YOU HAVE A WAR OF THE MONSTERS AVI.
I've been trying to find a copy of that game for so long now.
*cough*
Anyway, it makes sense that music helps. It makes people more focused or calm during a match.

Ur the second person to be amazed by my Kineticlops avatar hehe. looks like more people played War of the Monsters than i thought. Sadly, i do not own the game anymore. My PS2 broke down back in 2007. I havent played it since.....

It's been so long since I played that game. I can't even remember any monster names. ****, climbing all the buildings and throwing gasoline trucks was so awesome. Good times.

I've heard drunk brawl is fun....don't know if it makes you play better though. Better call the mythbusters.

 

[momochuu]

War of the Monsters was ****ing amazing.

/more off topic

I'm sorry. :<

@Bunny :3 it's fine. I like talking about it. Boy i love impaling ur opponents. It just gave me a warm fuzzy feeling....until they impaled me back.

 

[XFadingNirvanaX]

Don't forget trampling over all the people and crushing down buildings. =D

 

[Dru2]

Oh and remember that one tidal wave that would always come every 60 seconds in that one stage? Good times. Good times....

It doesn't work (for me), but it is fun as hell though.

I tried listening to my MP3 while playing but I really didn't pay attention to the music, but now, since I replaced the songs on my favorite levels with (instrumental) songs of my choosing, I've been able to play more enjoyably.

My smash song is a tie between Canon Rock and Lower Norfair (Metroid Metal version)
