Greetings Robin mains; I come bearing tidings. Recently one of the newest and most unruly members of our boards posted a replay vs one of your own (
Raziek) claiming him to be the best Robin in Smashboards.
Personally, and I know most other true Link Mains, I am inclined to disbelieve his vain boasts. However, others might believe it. So I offer warning so you may deal with his boasts in the way you deem best.

I bid thee farewell.
Raz is
at least one of the best Robins, that's acknowledged here. However he has stated numouros times that he hates the 3ds controls and it kinda cripples him.
Also, didn't Raz say that he won against him a majority of times? Can't recall correctly.
Shameless tagging.
@
Raziek
Both parties (eventually) did claim that Raz won the majority of the matches. I also found it odd that Raz was not using custom moves since he always uses them whenever he can.
I guess the positive way to take this is to be flattered that someone on the internet wants to hold up a single win against me as a trophy. That's something.
But.... let's debunk this business.
First, let me thank you @
Elessar
for bringing this to my attention.
Second, and probably most importantly, let's get the boasting he did FOR me cleared up. I am not the best Robin on Smashboards. I have never claimed to be. I do think highly of my play, and I consider myself AMONG the best (definitely top 5), but I am not crazy enough to claim I'm a better Robin than Nairo or Trela without having played either. And even then, the ditto is not a definitive measure of who is better at the character. (@
Nairo tho when we playin' bby)
To talk about the rest of it.....
1) The SINGLE game he posted
was the bonus round that we played AFTER I had won the set 3-2. It was (to nobody's surprise) the only game where he beat me by anything other than last-stock last-hit. And it was largely because I was playing more aggressively
because I had already won the set. I didn't record them, but one of the games I beat him in was a time-out where I camped out the last 40 seconds with a 10% lead. I didn't play lame in the last game he posted.
2) The other games we played were: 2-stock victory my favor on Yoshi's Island, 2-victory my favor on Arena Ferox, Last-stock last-hit loss on FD, last-stock last-hit loss on BF, Time-out win on YI.
I treated this set pretty casually. I agreed to a number of conditions I would not have agreed to otherwise if I had known this sort of boasting was to come of it. First, I didn't pick or counter-pick stages. I picked random the whole time. If I really cared, I'd have taken him to Prism Tower or something.
I also (as Cardinal notes) agreed to no customs. I didn't feel like putting up a big stink about it, but I absolutely would have used them if he hadn't specifically asked for them to be turned off. Especially on FD, which we played on twice (including the bonus round).
I agreed to 3DS controls. I
do not consider my play on the 3DS to be at all reflective of my actual quality of play. There are quite a few things that I either don't or CAN'T do properly with 3DS controls, which include but are not limited to: Falling (and retreating) Uair, Approaching Reverse Uair, Perfect Pivot retreating Bair, (correctly) buffering ledge-trump Bair, FH Fair to Fastfall Nair, Thunder-charge wave-bounces.... there are more. I
need two sticks to be playing at 100%. I didn't throw a fit about it earlier because I didn't want to be a sore-winner and talk about all the **** I couldn't do properly, and I didn't think I'd be dealing with.... this.
@
smokebomb12 : I know you're obviously pretty young, so I can see where your mindset is in trying to make yourself look better by cherrypicking the one game where you won the hardest. You're by no means a bad player. You do a lot of good things that your average For Glory Link doesn't. Like walking. And using F-tilt (Why the heck is that safe even on PS?!). And not blindly tossing boomerangs when I have Thoron charged. You're not bad at this game.
But what you have done here is..... at BEST.... dishonest. At worst, it's lying and vain boasting.
To sum it up, I guess I'm just.... disappointed that it came to this.
" or anything like that. If Charlotte is as much of a gold-digger/manipulative b*tch as we are being led to believe, then it makes sense that she would want to dress provocatively to attract attention. Also I'm just gonna put this on the table and say that I will love Charlotte forever if she tries to marry Kamui no matter what gender they are.
