See the thread I linked. It doesn't work like traditional DI at all anymore. :(

Yes. He's not unbeatable. I use Link and just barrage him with projectiles. My fights against Little Mac are extremely polar: either I wreck him with quick edge guards, or he wrecks me with all that fast damage and a combo leading into a KO uppercut. He has weaknesses, but you have to admit he powerfully commands many situations. It's not as simple as you make it out to be to maintain distance. He can close the gap quite quickly. Even his roll is stupid fast, which leads into his jabs, which leads to his mini uppercut. His smash attacks are also amazing pivots.
>but you have to admit he powerfully commands many situations

Im not going to lie, Ive NEVER had Mac command ANY situation outside of him making a hard read or me being dumb or making a mistake. Ive played like 6 different Macs online, and I think Ive only ever dropped a stock once or twice, that ***** is free. Dont know if its just my characters (Yoshi/Bowser/Wario) or what, but Mac is seriously not even a problem for me and Im not understanding all this hate towards him everyone has.

I've only lost a couple games out of 20 vs mac, but there's just some annoying things about him. His roll is insanely fast and hard to punish even when I read it. But so far if you're patient then he seems easy to beat since he's predictable. But holy eff so many ppl play him online

Seriously though AJ needs to post the video of last nights smash at RJs or I'm gonna be pissed.

It's so good. I'm gonna show off to all everyone who said I could be good someday and show them that today is that day.

My only thought going into the crew battle was "I might die before this thing ends, better not lose my last game."

From Gamer's Abbey page:

Small change in weeklies this week.

Provo Game Den - Tuesday, venue opens at 5 PM, tourney starts at 7 PM for Melee. $5 for all that attend.

Prize will be a fixed amount of $20/$10/$5 for first through third.

No Taylorsville Game Den. We are working on changing the location close to a trax station to help those with transportation. We will keep you posted, but this may wait until after Anime Banzai.

Speaking of, we're going to be at Anime Banzai! We'll be doing various tournaments that are free to enter (first come first serve with caps). Check out www.animebanzai.org for details!

I played like 20 Link dittos in For Glory. It was pretty even most of the way through. (Mathematically, that means we thrashed each others' win ratios.) The last match was hilarious, though. Clearly, my opponent's 3DS was taken over by a little brother or something. He started playing terribly. I took almost no damage.

I bet his mom made him share. ^_^

what days are they again? I want to go, i just can't miss school.
We would be leaving Friday afternoon. I get off of work at 2 so I want to leave Logan by 3. Which means in Ogden by 4. We would stay in Boulder that night. Then the tournament the next day and then stay the night again. Following that we would drive back sunday morning.

I found the true counter to Little Mac. Mario. Any hit whatsoever combos into grabs which you can then either throw him off with or dthrow into uair/bair strings, then just FLUDD him. lol

Literally the absolute freest (how would you even spell that) MU in Smash history. 10/10.

You can just pick Wario and run away.

I wanna go!!
Okay. My car is full again.

Me,
Gkirbs,
Logos,
MeleeRuler,
Net

For costs I'm expecting around 35$ a person for gas. It's probably going to be less.

For the tournament here is what I've been told

FEES:
$5 Venue Fee, waived for full setups
$10 entry to all Singles events, $5 per person ($10 per team) for all Doubles events.

So 25$ to enter both tournaments all together.

So bring 60$ and then bring some food money too if you can. If you can't let me know and we will figure something out so you don't die.
