Utah Thread - Dead thread is dead

So I just found that a max distance boost run into moonwalk with Falcon can cover just about the entire length of FD. This is fantastic.

gif please

Spoiler: Here's without a short hop

Spoiler: Here's with a short hop

I don't think either of those have quite max distance boost runs, but that's pretty tricky to get.

 

[adlp]

oh my gosh i love that so much can you teach me when you get here for evo

 

[Dark Ryu]

i challenge all utah melee players to at least $5 mm's.

also, i arrive on the 16th of june.

also, if possible, delay that tournament on the 13th. i'd love to represent my state.

 

[Tsuteto]

Cannot delay the tournament, sorry. But I'm willing to take more than just $5 from you bro

 

[Kofu]

What's the schedule for the Haj tournament in Kaysville? I can probably attend that with some regularity.

What's the schedule for the Haj tournament in Kaysville? I can probably attend that with some regularity.

It's the first and third saturday of every month. We'll have an extra one this week because of the way the month is. We are only doing smash 4 at this tourney.

Doubles starts at 5 (we may stop having double because the people that wan't doubles aren't showing up for them)
and Singles starts at 7

@ Tsuteto for dropping it in tourney but bring it in friendlies :-p

 

[Meleeruler]

Holy moly these upsets

 

[941]

Also shoutouts to the Southern Utah players at Neumont. Unless you guys went 0-2 in bracket, in which case I retract your shoutouts, and forbid you from returning.

LOL It's been almost a decade since I actually rigorously practiced chain-grabbing with Marth. Give me a break!

And where were you, man?

It's a long and rough road. Hence why I like to stay in the winner's bracket the whole way through.

food poisoning relegated me to my bedroom and bathroom today... sad times -_-''.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

That sucks. Pretty bad timing, too.

 

[net1234]

never been saltier in my life with summer coming up im gonna be on that grind. best be prepared next neumont

 

[RVKYS]

Shoutouts to the Nortah guys for being super chill and to 2johns specifically for exposing my peach MU. You guys should come down to slc weekly every once in a while.

Shoutouts to steamfriedasian for being amazing.

Shoutouts to billnye. Im sorry dude, but according to the rankings it was always gonna be a blow out :/

Also, for those of you who don't know already, I leave to Japan on my mission on July 22nd so I gotta **** you guys up before then.

 

[BillNyeTheSamusGuy]

Shoutouts to billnye. Im sorry dude, but according to the rankings it was always gonna be a blow out :/

You keep saying this, but I keep out placing you at tournaments.

 

[Shane M]

It was a good tourney for sure last night. Had people from Idaho and Wyoming to participate.

 

[DuskMarthWater]

I had a grand time with you guys

Logos you played very well yesterday. I like the Falco, it's coming along nicely. Don't get a big head though.

Net you scrub. Let's play more, seriously.

PC good work being good at this game, and being someone I can respect as a human being.

Jekyll for being the respectable gentlemen you always are, and probably the only person I can play a match with where we're both just utterly exhausted and playing like total scrubs, and not actually feel even the slightest bit of disappointment in my level of play because it was fun

I'd like to come back soon and play some more; I'd love the experience in improving mental stamina. I guess I'm *kinda* satisfied with winning PM, but since I'm a scrub in PM compared to Melee and I don't really care about it only kind of haha. I am thinking about driving down June 5th-6th just to play anyone who wants to play, all evening Friday and all day Saturday. I would absolutely love to play more games Anyone up for a weekend smashfest that weekend? I might even bring some $1 bills to do some MM's. Nothing big, just something to make it a tad bit more serious to get the training on for reals.

 

[Remioli]

Shout outs to @ Jekyll for losing in the first round of pm. What a buster.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Just realized that the two of you are now right by each other on the rankings! I guess this is another fierce rivalry in Utah (for another 2 months).

And X dropped quite a bit for some reason. Even Staz is above him, now, despite X having a much better win percentage. I guess going to tournaments and not placing well is worse than not entering at all?

Jekyll...because it was fun

How can anyone play that Luigi and say that it was fun... Blasphemy!

And it looks like you're now officially 2nd on our PM rankings, with your performance yesterday. LOL

If this is true, then Shantae would be a good addition to Smash.

losing to people ranked considerably lower than you will drop your rank faster than the natural decay. x lost to smoom, tsuteto, logos, and roguay all within a week. all of those players were ranked lower than him :-p.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Well, Logos and Roguay proved in the last tournament that they should be placed higher than where they were, at the very least. XD But I guess if he lost of all of them, then I guess it's fitting that he's grouped with them.

Guys I'm hiding in a bathroom as a tornado passes overhead and the last thing I wanted to post on the Internet before I died is coming here to tell you guys Devon will never beat my secondaries in tournament.

 

[-Mars-]

Results????

I lived btw lol carry on.

 

[nqztv]

fyi, we're dropping smash 4 doubles for the weekly at the provo game den. so tomorrow we'll have smash 4 singles at 6pm, and melee singles at 8pm.

 

[ZeroKarasu]

I missed Neumont? Crap.

 

[Raethien]

Im moving to Utah pretty soon, can I have some information on a scene?

 

[nqztv]

joining the utah smash facebook group and following this thread will get you a long way in our scene. let us know when you're coming and what city you'll be moving to and we can probably give you more specific information for when the time comes!

 

[Blues17]

Im moving to Utah pretty soon, can I have some information on a scene?

Northern, Central, or Southern Utah? Please provide a map of your own creation to illustrate location.

 

[Raethien]

@ Blues17

 

[nqztv]

@ Raethien hmmm, that doesn't seem very close to where any of our weeklies happen. your best bet is to probably join the southern utah smash facebook group. @ adlp , @ 941 , and @ Blues17 are a few of the people in southern utah on this board so i would follow their advice.

 

[Death Arcana]

yo @DrPhantasma
MM$
loser has to buy these for the Winner

 

[Spank3d]

By the way, I will not be running the Hang Time weekly this week. When I do get back into town to host it, I'm considering dropping Smash 4 singles and replacing it with Melee Singles (PM at 7 and Melee at 9ish) after reading up on what people have been suggesting over the past 2 weeks.

nobodyshowsanywayso¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[Aeriden]

So I want to get back into melee after not playing it after so long but I feel like I'm so many years behind it's not worth it. Have any of you come in to the competitive melee scene late?
