The only thing I do with my controls is map up-taunt to X. The way I DACUS is very unorthodox and I only know of two players other than myself who do it. I use my right thumb to press down on the C-Stick, my left thumb to press up on the Control Stick, and my right index finger to press A. I can DACUS even with the 4-framers (Wolf, G&W, Marth) with over 90% consistency when I'm playing well with this method. Just earlier I combo'd a tipper Fair into DACUS tipper with Marth.

Is there a different way to DACUS if you don't reassign a shoulder button? This is how I've been learning it just because I'm not gonna handicap myself by using the grab button and I couldn't think of any other way to do it.

Nap (my roommate last year) was trying to figure something out, but it doesn't seem like there's any other way to DACUS consistently with G&W/Marth/Wolf/etc. unless you either claw or map A to R. Either that, or Nap and I are bad at other DACUS methods.

Your Sheik is better than Vanz or Fly, Umbreon?
Click to expand...

solidly, yes.

as for marth, i agree with juushichi that i'm much closer with sethlon in terms of a skill gap. sethlon has some bad habits in his play, but i do too for probably the same reasons.

this is based on my own observations and the level of play from LTC. please understand that i have the highest regards for sethlon, fly amanita, and vanz as players and i'm pretty sure all of them would spank me at melee. i just want to convey my point of view with sincerity, and i have an excellent reputation for calling talent to back it. i also understand that someone may come along at any point that is better than me, i just haven't seen it yet.

i had a lot of personal stuff go down over the summer so i kinda threw myself into working 80+ hours a week. with the semester coming up, i should be able to go back down to the legion fests and other stuff in that area. JC's crew is pretty sweet all around.

sheik is soooo good in this game lol

There isn't really a scene in Korea so I'm on my own.

Dude Korea is like the Starcraft capital! You should be training for that ****.

But I feel your pain, not having many human players to play against really sucks.
You could try wifi, and just try to ignore the frame delay.

Sethlon used to play a mean Roy in Melee: a lot of the Dtilting and other setups are with that flavor in mind. It makes a lot more sense once someone knows that about him.

I lost to Falcoty (2-1) and to Taj (2-1) I ended up placing 4th.

Set with Taj at Project AZ tourney

The next AZ PM tourney I lost to Silly Kyle and Axe, placing 5th.


At Low Tier City I placed 9th, I lost to Reflex and DMG in bracket and to Fly in pools. I did 2-0 Oracle though.


Here's some friendlies I did with Calabrel this weekend.

Best Roy, Best Marth, Best Sheik, the list keeps on growing lol....
Click to expand...

to be fair i've been playing for a very, very long time. at various points, i've been considered the best zelda, best mewtwo, 2nd best ness, and 2nd best roy players. these are fairly obscure characters that still suck in tournament though. you can make jabs or try to make me sound silly, but those things still happened, however long ago.

i'm only making the claim that i'm the best at sheik and marth that i've seen so far for this game. that can change at pretty much any time.
