You wonder why everyone bags on you; I think if you weren't like this, then people would give you more recognition for your skill. And wait, Xander...do you mean in the game or in real life? Cause I could care less about the game, but in real life I promise you that won't happen.

Lol shockingly enough, I thought that match wasn't that good.

The u-tilt combos were sexy and all, but that falco was terrible!!! Seriously... If it was a solid falco then I'd be more impressed. Also Armada should jabbed reset alot lol. Other then that pretty cool stuff

Now that Falcon of GG7's... that's another story ;)
<3 to lovage.

And GG7's Falcon reminded me of why he is the best character in the game. What was I thinking maining Sheik!? If only I lived in AZ so GG7 could teach me the ways of the Falcon :(

Certain people in this thread annoy me O_o.

Anyways on an un-related note, since everyone is a ***** and doesn't come out here to play me, I'll probably be playing against Alex a lot now since he literally lives 2 miles away from me =) so Alex is gonna get hella good woo ICs.

Im pretty sure he wasnt saying that because lovage disagrees with him about armada, but because he came in here talking all that **** and doesnt even know him. Makes sense to me.

No disrespect to lovage or anything

Twin_A: Lovage pretty much just goes anywhere I do to blatantly troll, attack, and insult me simply because he dislikes my personality. I tried to confront him civilly about it, but if anything he just treats me worse now. Give me a reason not to brutalize him if he acts like that to me in person.

Ok, so I wanted my 2 cents on the ol' standard debate.

Being standard is not an insult to a player. I believe every good player has strong fundamentals in smash, what I call "ABC's." Every character has their ABC's; Falcon has d-throw > upair > knee, Fox has up throw > up air, Sheik has dash attack > f tilt > slap, etc. Good players are at least 90% technically consistant on these combos. If you are not consistant with your ABC's, you are not a good player.

Combo innovation is quite rare in melee. Although the game does offer a lot of freedom to create your own combos, the amount of combos that are useful and effective is limited in comparison, and most of said combos have been known for years. If a truely effective innovative combo is made for a character, then after time it will become standard. If one were to say that they are not impressed by a player because they do not do innovative combos then that person will rarely be impressed by any player. In the case that they do see an innovative combo and is impressed their appreciation for such combo will fade because over time that combo will no longer be new and innovative.

On a personal note, I am very proud to have standardized Falco's combo game with shine > platform waveland. At the time I started using it it was new and innovative, and now it has become standard. My influence on smash will be forever known. But I digress.

My point on innovation refers to combos, however combos are only one part of a players skill. In a broader sense, I would say that decision-making is the all encompassing factor that describes every piece of skill that a player uses. Every time you move your character to space, every time you attack, everytime you DI, shield, roll, ledge guard, you are making a decision.

Standard decision making changes with the metagame. Many mind games stem from what is considered a standard. A crude and simple example is that people want to survive, therefore if they land near the ledge and tech, the standard would be to tech towards the stage so that if you are hit again, you are hit closer from the center and are less likely to be knocked off of the stage. Good players recognize this standard and punish people who tech towards the middle and deviate from it themselves by teching in place. As seen before, effective innovations become the standard. So the new standard is to tech in place when landing near the ledge and to punish those who tech towards the middle. The metagame evolves and standard decisions are changed.

From this point, one can conclude that a great player is ahead of the metagame, and to be ahead of the metagame, one must make decisions that are not standard. As said, decisions are all encompassing, so where the great players deviate in their choices could be anything. From when they decide to apply shield pressure to when to bait out an attack, and all the hundreds of decisions that make up those two choices. To say a great player is standard is wrong and an over simplification of the complicated thought process that goes on when they play. To say that a player is innovative is a vague statement that really means nothing more than the player is highly skilled.

In summation, great players are aware of what is effective and know when standard ABC's will suffice, thus innovation is not necessary. They are also incredibly clever and know where unorthodox decisions will ultimately give them a win. Where they make these decisions are not obvious, and the great players would prefer it that way because their strategy is only effective as long as people do not catch on to it.

Great post.

Just one thing - your "ABC" combos are actually known as BnBs (bread and butter combos) in the lexicon of most competitive fighting games :laugh:

I would like to point out that Rubyiris's Falco is not standard. Which is an insult. It can't pull off standard waveshine combines. Jk with the insulting but Xander you should definitely learn to incorporate those shine wavelands more effectively to bring your Falco game up.

Lol Sean and that little self-promoting paragraph in the middle. We all know that you based your wavelanding game off of Gimpyfish! Jk

Which president was assassinated in a car? J(f)k

Chris Burtt is a little *****, seriously.

If he trolls you then just laugh it off. Who cares? Your being angry only fuels the fire.

Oh, but it was to address particular people, Spencer. And to get some things out of the way, I'll say who I think this post was addressed to and I think those people are Me,Rob, and Xander.

hahaha silly kids
Lol I know you're joking and all but for the record you are actually incorrect ;)

hmmmm... Jackie... where have i heard those exact same words somewhere before? don't you think you shoulud've followed that up with a long wall of text? lol
Really? A backhanded insult? -_-

spencer i would come play you all the time but i live in sierra vista tee hee
It's okay I understand. It's nice to hear that you would play me if you could though :)

You spelled a certain Peach main's name with 3 letters?

Keep in mind I actually give Spencer respect. I just think that he shouldn't bash worse players to make a point. Isn't that fair enough?
Usually the point of my posts aren't specifically to bash a worse player because I try to stay away from flaming as much as possible generally. But if someone pisses me off enough to a certain point that I feel like I have to do as you said here, then I will, and as shown, it HAS happened a few times. It just seems like people love to piss me off for some reason even though I'm pretty much nothing but nice to everyone.

Just thought I'd happily say that I proofread this for him because he's a doofus sometimes LOL.

(8:48:14 PM) rubysuigyoku: its the most direct and efficient way to bring up facts, or an opinion, imo. no sugar coating, or w/e, and people dislike it for whatever reason
(8:48:24 PM) lingbling6: what do u mean "for whatever reason"

(8:49:34 PM) lingbling6: so when raynex disagreed with you
(8:49:36 PM) lingbling6: and u said

(8:49:43 PM) lingbling6: HOW COULD U DISAGREE WITH ME
(8:49:49 PM) lingbling6: u dont know why ppl think ur a ****?
(8:50:13 PM) rubysuigyoku: raynex refused me critique several times. of course i'm going to be a **** to him

(8:51:32 PM) rubysuigyoku: he made a post saying that he WOULD give critique but he was sure i'd just ignore it
(8:51:42 PM) rubysuigyoku: or say like NO I ALREADY KNOW THAT LOLOL or some ****
(8:51:42 PM) lingbling6: LMAO
(8:51:46 PM) rubysuigyoku: which is totally false
(8:51:51 PM) lingbling6: can you guess why
(8:51:52 PM) lingbling6: he would say that
(8:51:56 PM) lingbling6: take a random guess
(8:52:00 PM) lingbling6: why he assumes u think u know everything
(8:52:07 PM) rubysuigyoku: yeah and i called his *** out on it because hes totally wrong about me.
(8:52:13 PM) lingbling6: becaues u post
(8:52:15 PM) lingbling6: like u know everything
(8:52:20 PM) lingbling6: (even tho ur still terrible at smash)
(8:52:21 PM) rubysuigyoku: nobody knows everything.
(8:52:28 PM) lingbling6: people arent gonna respect you about smash until you prove yourself
(8:52:34 PM) lingbling6: and when u arent respectful to ppl better than you
(8:52:36 PM) lingbling6: why would they help you?
(8:52:37 PM) rubysuigyoku: but yeah. knowledge and player skill have nothing in common. people need to learn that.
(8:52:44 PM) lingbling6: so its just tek skill?
(8:52:47 PM) lingbling6: u know all this stuff about the game
(8:52:49 PM) lingbling6: but u cant do it
(8:52:54 PM) lingbling6: are u sure u know as much as u think?
(8:52:58 PM) rubysuigyoku: i sure do.
(8:53:02 PM) lingbling6: if i knew as much as you think you know, i would be amazing
(8:53:03 PM) rubysuigyoku: i don't know frame data stuff though
(8:53:09 PM) lingbling6: but ur pompous and cocky
(8:53:17 PM) lingbling6: unlike most respectful players
(8:53:33 PM) rubysuigyoku: cocky? i'm a piece of ****. im like not even half as good as tai is and he got ***** at pound
(8:53:40 PM) rubysuigyoku: how is that cocky

I'm sorry, I wasn't able to read what Lovage said. The spelling was just terrible.

Oh and by the way to everyone, I like Xander, I'll defend him if need be, because he's never really a **** to me. I've given him advice before and he's taken it well so I don't see what Lovage or anyone is trying to get at for that matter. Very rarely do we have some serious tussle that involves either of us getting mad and from what I can tell I'm probably the person in AZ who's nicest to him because most people seem to know nothing about respect. He respects me and I respect him. It's that simple, folks. And if you originally got off on the wrong foot with Xander, then there's definitely a good chance that you just don't know how to correct went wrong. Of course that getting off on the wrong foot was HIS fault right? Because everyone else NEVER does anything wrong, right? ;)
