Shugo doesn't live here anymore and some of the God Kai (Infern/Y.b.M.) are gone and MK is banned, no idea where Blue Rogue is but still...I really should go to more tournaments in Ohio...

Wat? I don't think that was me

Fun tourney. Still a lot of silly mistakes being made by me (running out of gas, wtf?) but my marth is getting a bit better. Dunno if I'll stick to using him, I need to find a character other than ROB to play.

Wish someone had beaten that ZSS/Lucas team in doubles, Kel and I lost to them twice and got 5th, haha. There was a mixup in doubles and we were actually 1-1 vs. Kain and MJG, and then someone realized the mistake and we had to lose to FAE and FreeLux again XD

Really enjoyed the venue. Thanks to all who bought bead art (helped pay for all the random crap I always buy here). Hopefully I'll get serious one of these days and actually play friendlies and money matches and look to improve again instead of playing Marth against people in tournament and never having played the matchup before. Pro tip: That does not work out well.

AZ for king of the rusty old fogeys, as he placed the highest among the people who don't really play anymore.

Probably my most fun matches were against Krystedez, I hadn't played his Pit since it got good. I remember being skeptical when he first picked it up because it went from having trouble with his wario to tossing his pit around like a rag doll, but it actually improved a great deal and I found it just as difficult to deal with as his wario. Plus neither of us were taking the match too intensely and had a ball (laser Pit's recovery twice, but run out of gas? LOL all around). I'm surprised by his dedication to Pit too; took him to Brinstar expecting Wario so I could switch to marth, and he goes Pit. Went Marth anyway ^_^

GGs all, was fun.

I don't even now why I play Brawl. I suck at it, it's a waste of my time , and it's a waste of my money.

EDIT: Was raging, but now I'm better. Shoutouts to MX :)

In your defense, I am pretty free.

If I played any worse I'd go from DeLux > FreeLux > FreeSux

Blue is in Canton still. He's locked in my basement. Helen and I bring him out every once in a while.
Oh and Blue is easily top 3 best player in Ohio.
If you disagree, you are dumb.
^^See, that's how you win discussions

In speaking of blue, I still want to team with him sometime :(. My teammate at psu is a wario so it would be perfect :3

Kekekekeke.

Btw, has anyone else beat Kel besides AZ and blue rogue? I still think he's the best of our state, even without bat ball.

But I pose a challange now that I don't have to face 100-0 MUs.

My PR:

1.) Kel
2.) BR
3.) Me
Everyone else

Don't worry though, I'll be the bess soon.

Just follow the grime...
No...just...no
idk why people post like they know the skill of all the players in Ohio, no offense to lumi and sneaky of course
Thank goodness you pointed this out! I too was about to attack Rob for how outlandish that post was. It really aggravated me, because it almost seemed like he was mocking us... (silly as that may sound.)

Wait, when did I get passed by Tako and Lumi? lol
When they started going 1-2 at tourneys. :blackpersonface:

Real talk tho. MK getting banned + Tako beating people like Sparta Kick and Zinoto recently puts him above you imo; considering that PRs should be representations of skill/accomplishments more so considering recent tourneys in an effort to show a state's current skilled players/players who are doing well. Not a list counting all time records/accomplishments. though that is another way it could be done, if that's the route you guys would prefer to go.

You are still definitely above Lumi though, imo.
Fellow Gunpunch don't count. And anyone who has like a 1-200 win rate against him. Including me.
See above.

Yeah, because I haven't made an OH tourney(let alone many tourneys at all) in a while due to college. I was just saying at one point or another I've had the chance to play most OH players :).
I've been to columbus, haven't been to cincci(reallly want to change that this summer >.<)

if anyone has any of my replays can you upload them/send them to me? I think me vs. Ally was saved--we played on one of the middle TV on the middle table, facing the projector... yup

Not that Troller's opinion counts for Ohio PR, but are you guys completely forgetting OUGA and Apex? Tako and Lumi getting 1st and 2nd at a $5 monthly =\= best in Ohio. Especially when so many people didn't go. Furthermore, King Beef has always under rated me in bias for NEOH/ godkais, so this is nothing new in my book. I addmittedly had an awful day at this tournament. I literally killed myself in every set at least once. I'm still working on My Marth's consistency and general mindgames to work from in order to develop reads. This will take some time to develop, but I'll get there soon enough. However, I have never believed that one or two tournaments decide someone's skill.

In the end, all of Ohio needs to step it up, because we are bad. Michigan is right in that Ohio is bad. However, Michigan needs to admit that they are bad too. Instead of having MI Vs OH/ KY, we should unite again and be better than the MW:W. This most likely will not happen; but until then, we are just arguing who the tallest Hobbit is currently.

GG, MW:E

I don't see why people are so concerned about it. People in Alabama are so concerned about what other people think of their ability, too.

Overswarm beat him twice iIrc.
I just know Kel like the back of my hand from playing with him for so long and have a slightly advantageous matchup in ROB vs. Marth against him, so he's coming in at a disadvantage playing against someone who has actually played his character for more than a short time frame. It isn't like MK dittos where we could go back and forth and had both played for about the same time period.

I have also recently beaten OS, Tako, Lumi, Blue Rogue, Pops and Infern with my new Marth.

I should be used to being forgotten by now.
