[misterpimp5757]

Are you kidding me? I just posted a strategy that works on more than half the cast. How can you say we aren't making strategy threads and techs and whatnot? My thread has the word "strat" in its title.

There are plenty of useful threads, it's just that they have been inactive lately (guilty as charged). Then again, the majority of them have just the information needed for those who inquire. There's little else to do with Snake's metagame, in my humble opinion, aside from mixing up your strategy and being the more intelligently reactive and creatively intuitive player... So far the most "revolutionary" thing I've seen is the port priority deal. That's about it.

Hmm...not really its just Snake is slowing in meta game developement.
Be paitent we need a problem to solve is all. Right now the only problems are little mistakes people make in match ups.
Everyone else except MK have horrible match ups Snakes doesnt either (i dont think... )
So everyone else is making combo and stratgies to win these bad match ups.

Be happy take it easy we got it good for now we dont have any big flaws really...only thing I say we look in too is ROB but thats just me.

Gimpable recovery.
Easy to juggle.
Situational aerial attacks.
Attacks that hurt Snake.
Slow as hell.
Requires large amount of mindgames to play to full potential.

Etc, etc.

im sorry for saying this but wtf is up with u guys and meta?

u know there are other characters to worry about like D3 or rob or snake itself.

 

[iRjOn]

Snake vs Snake is just whom is smart in the way of CQC.
D3 isnt troublesome... a good ROB is the only thought but not that much of a thought cuz we are Snake players, the Chuck Norris of Brawl.

And meta is meta, I mean its the concepts of the game... so thats whats up. Its just a another way of saying in depth game machanics for each character. IMO

In my opinion.

I think , we've taken Snake to his limit. We've found all the mega uber strats and techqs , and now we're just sorting them into do's and dont's.

If you feel the need to devolp your snake further , just play online , watch youtube vids of pros and develop from there. Don't rely on us dude.

Nonononononononono, DON'T PLAY ONLINE!

Lag=fail. Go play other people. Find a tourney somewhere and participate. It's all about learning and developing skill in real time. Yeah, watch pros play, they got a lot of good ideas. But try to be creative, too. The reason why we're stuck where we are is because we've become content with all that we have. Snake may have some more neat stuff up his sleeves, so go nuts.

Snake still has a lot of metagame potential that's yet to be tapped into. Lately I've been experimenting with bsticking/wavebouncing while keeping the smash stick. I've been able to do some pretty cool tricks with the nikita as well as grenades and c4. One thing I've started doing and is really easy to do, is using the c4 to turn around midair. People just need to start thinking more out of the box. The way Snake is played now is effective but he still has untapped power. Another thing most people don't know about snake is that the rocket launcher can hit most characters if Snake is on a platform and the opponent is standing underneath. If these boards are going to become more useful then people need to start getting creative.

Snakes gameplay evolves faster than most other characters due to popularity!

 

[da K.I.D.]

this thread is rediculous... lol

every other character is coming up with cool techs and crap just ot beat snake and MK,

the only reason that snake is going nowhere as you put it is because the stuff you found out 1 month after launch, still ***** most of the cast you dont need techs or strategy because you have a rediculously strong character.

maybe if one of these days we find a move or strat that beats snake consistently, than you guys will start coming up with new stuff, but until than, theres really no need, because at this point, the only real way to be a snake player is to be a considerable amount better than him at the game

This topic contradicts itself..

Snake's only metagame potential comes from mindgames and field control at the moment.

No one else in ANY smash game can do as many mind boggling setups as he can. Learning to grenade at the right time, right angle can do sooo much along with placing C4 and mines.
