That's the spirit Cuban Pete.

 

[IsmaR]

That's Athabaskan Spike to you, 'Poser.

 

[DtJ Composer]

You know I can't call you that baby

 

[IsmaR]

Very well, I'll be Cuban for you this one time...But don't go telling people like it's a set thing.

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

Too late.
dun.

[AgentObvious]

^ So random.

 

[DtJ Composer]

Issy is the title a JoCo reference?

 

[IsmaR]

Damn straight.

[IsmaR]

Good a time as any to mention that I'm revamping the OP. Suggestions/criticism much appreciated. This being used as a social thread, metagame discussions to other places. Etc.

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

May I suggest creating Tube Technology, no more pollution, no more car exhaust,
or ocean dumpage. From now on, we will travel in tubes!

That'll do pig, that'll do.

I'd like to update this, as there are a few changes. My SWF name is now AgentObvious, my brawl name is Agent and my mains are now Samus, Marth and Falco. Thanks in advance =].

 

[IsmaR]

Done and we'll get right on that Doctor.

 

[DtJ Composer]

Did not know Obvious was ZeroL


Pick one mang!


EDIT: As long as the picture of how the samus boards worked (before KJ gave himself the boot) stays then I'm content with whatever else you change in the OP, Issy.

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

Done and we'll get right on that Doctor.

Am excite.

 

[IsmaR]

Nah, I wouldn't get rid of any of the groundwork, just work upon it. Was considering a picture of the broiler at one point, but I'm too lazy too look.

 

[DtJ Composer]

If you need extra work, I don't play ICs/ROB anymore, but I do play Wario.


Not that it matters because I work on every weekend in existence.

 

[IsmaR]

Likewise, soon to be every weekday as well. Hopin' to change that once I take a cross-country road trip this summer.

 

[Xyro77]

Its official, Noid was on the Ktar 5 live stream just now and he said hes moved on to FALCO as his MAIN. He is doing this because he is sick of losing to people he KNOWS he can beat. This means i am the last Samus main who does anything in tourney.

I feel the exact same way he does too.......... so should i follow his lead?

 

[DtJ Composer]

I mean... do you want results as a Samus main or do you just want results?


Character Pride is really unforgiving in this game.

 

[Xyro77]

I still wanna go out being the best samus so if i quit now others take my spot. But at the same time im with noid on the fact that we lose A LOT of our MUs because of our character...not US.

 

[IsmaR]

I liked NOID before I knew he mained Samus, and that probably won't change. It's true that the match-ups do effect results, but I think that only adds incentive, in opinion, to better yourself as a player. If ya feel like ya can't play to the best of your ability, or as said above lose to people you know you are better than/can beat, then more power to ya.

 

[Serris]

There's still the problem of Samus being absolutely terrible at everything but recovering and camping, but I suppose we can work around it.

 

[DelxDoom]

using a starcraft 2 guest pass

 

[DtJ Composer]

You used a secondary for awhile didn't you Xyro?
Do you think it'd be worth trying something like that again?


Either way, I wouldn't blame you (or NoID) for not playing Samus anymore. Not that it's as relevant because skill level gap but I mained Wario for a good while because I was fed up with my matches as Samus too, and I imagine everyone (sane) who mains a low tier has been down that road.
At the state Samus is as a character right now, I don't think you really have anything left to prove with her.

 

[Darkshadow7827]

Even if you switched mains Xyro, I'd still consider you and NOID the best samus players around. But if you want better results, why not move up the tier list. You can only do so much with an inherently bad character. Now imagine what you could do if you moved up to an inherently better character. I always top player's mains to be irrelevant as by that point, it's knowing the MU and playing smart. You and Noid are smart. Using a better character can only help you. Besides, you'd always have Samus as your low tier main. Anyways, it's up to you. I support any decisions a top player chooses to make. If you

 

[AgentObvious]

Switching mains isn't really needed IMO. I just have secondaries, Marth and Falco, for the really bad match-ups like Marth, Falco, MK, Wario (I'd rather use Marth/Falco against Wario than Samus) and Olimar.

 

[NO-IDea]

Decided not to drop Samus. Will post a thread about it later. Busy atm.

 

[Crystanium]

You guys cannot let go of Samus. You have made a psychological connection to the character. I have tried, and it just doesn't work. So much time and effort has been spent on this one character, and to be honest, I'm sure a lot of you are like me in that you don't feel like throwing away what you have used your time doing. Until the next Super Smash Bros. game comes out, if there ever is another, you guys will probably stick with Samus. Sure, have an alternative or two, but Samus is your main.

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

OR you could switch to ROB. I mean he's the melee samus of brawl ROB samus style fighting hero justice

 

[IsmaR]

No. Also no thanks.

 

[Darkmetroidomega]

Yeah, even with only about a year of playing Samus, I really can't say there's any possibility of dropping her. You just... can't seem to do it :X

 

[IsmaR]

I play the game for fun first, in the end. I can do that with a lot more characters than Samus, but if I had to choose one, I'd be hard pressed to pick anybody but her.
Every other reason I play her(being more comfortable with her, proving she could be worse, etc.) are just bonuses. That and no other character has the broiler.

 

[DtJ Composer]

Some woman at McDonalds was all trying to deep fry my french fries and I was like "***** you better put those in the Broiler.

 

[AgentObvious]

Where else would she put them. In the oven?

 

[IsmaR]

I had a similar experience with Domino's just now. You can't eat bacon that hasn't been in the Broiler.

 

[Crystanium]

OR you could switch to ROB. I mean he's the melee samus of brawl ROB samus style fighting hero justice

I heard this from HugS first, and I think people are just regurgitating what he said. I honestly don't see Melee Samus when I try out R.O.B.

I like Diddy Kong a lot. At first I didn't care about him because of how he felt in the Sub-Space Emissary, but after I learned how to do glide tossing with Samus, which was so easy, I tried it with Diddy Kong, and from there, I learned that he was a really great character. It had nothing to do with the fact that he is the third best character. I just like Metroid and Donkey Kong.

Well, guys, I hope you're all doing great. I've been playing a bit of Brawl. I feel like I do pretty well, although I am not as great as I was before. I just hope I am doing a lot better as a Samus main. I use the z-air in ways like Xyro does. I feel that I am not simply throwing out attacks in hopes I hit my opponent, but rather do so because it is the best option at the certain time.

 

[DtJ SquidBurrMoneyBurr]

I main samus.

Because her **** so fat and her tether so thin, And she's sippin light beer and her crew right here.

 

[DelxDoom]

I cannot play Starcraft very well

 

[IsmaR]

I main samus.

Because her **** so fat and her tether so thin, And she's sippin light beer and her crew right here.

Words cannot describe the beauty in this statement.
