Xyro was doing really well until you got a couple of lucky edge hogs on him. I wouldn't have suicided like he did, but the chances of him winning were pretty low anyways.

i wouldnt say its exp. its more along the lines of there are techs/chars that u can abuse regardless of exp or knowledge and do pretty good against people who are really good.

magik(the pkmn i gave up too) is an example(if u saw all of our matches). some times brawl just isnt fun becuase of stuff like that.

I know what you're talking about, because it does take skill to avoid things like that, it still makes the game really unbalanced. Like DDD vs DK, DK is just trying to avoid the grab through out the whole match, and if he's caught, he dies. Things like that does take the fun out of the game, because it's a cat and mouse game in those circumstances. Squirtle can be infinited by Birthday Suit Samus, and since she has the longest grab aside from the Blue pikmin Olimar, it's hell for Squirtle. Not to mention that half of the cast can chaingrab Squirtle. I personally wouldn't quit, but I would just go on auto pilot if something like that happend, lol.

in this game ****ty players can beat good layers. in melee that never happened
your right this game is all about consistency...which means you always have to be on your A game...but honestly it isnt about that. i wouldnt think you would drop a match like that. no matter what the case. You were just being rude. i remeber when lee harris did the exact same thing to me.....so he may be funny but i lost respect for him as a player. but you never idd something like that to me so were still tite!

i do not use any other character than samus....so Cg and infinites are out of the question.

im not saying i quit or i hate brawl. im just saying i quit playing that magik guy only because i stoped having fun. why play him if its not fun?


and kown, u dont use a character that has unfair techs. thats why i dont give up on the matches when we play. and to be frank, i dont care if its rude if i quit, if your gonna go low enough and do ****** **** just to win.........then i can quit if i feel like it

wow you guys are being di cks, who cares if he gives up a friendly, I've done them before it's not really a big deal at all. I hate that phrase johns johns johns. You can't just like make a topic like this and then expect him not to respond then say whatever he says is johns. That's the dumbest thing ever.

That's the problem with this game. The fact that there is no hit stun at all makes the game very bad. I only like PT. That's why I continue to play, and want to see how far PT's metagame advances. I know PT is high in the middle tier, but I want to see if others can see that. Just today I found out that if Charizard does his jab, someone can jab him out of it, because the lack of hitstun.

one of th main reasons why many many many many melee vets find it hard to move on to this game.

Go ahead, disagree. I know he's up in the middle when I compare his moves to the rest of the roster and such. I expected him to be bottom tier in the actual tier list, though.

I think the whole premise of what this thread is, is pretty immature. It's all about trying to take a shot at a pro Samus user's ego. Which, I think is pretty disrespectful. Showing a video where you 2 or 3 stock someone is enough as it is, but you're taking shots at Xyro's personality or something, and posting it on the Samus board? Why? So that other Samus users won't like Xyro or something?

He's been a really nice guy to me, I haven't ever seen him being cocky or being a jerk or anything to anyone, though I'm not a frequent poster on SWF, I tell you the truth to the extent of what I have seen of him. I think this Tudor guy, if anything, from what I've heard and seen, yeah, he's a good Samus user, but he has no merit.

So PokemonMasterIRL, just don't make threads like this anymore because I find it pretty shallow to be doing something like this. Stop for your own sake, man.

Enjoy.

At around 3:30 is where is loses all dignity as a noble warrior.
Discuss.
There's nothing to discuss. ewic is right about you. This is the lowest thing I've ever seen. I don't see Xyro losing his dignity here. I don't care about this video. You don't see anyone taking a video where both Eggz and Jem both played as Meta Knight on Green Greens, and where Jem suicided on purpose, and saying, "Hey, Jem lost all dignity! Where's your 'noble warrior' now?" Heck, I'd probably do the same thing Xyro did.

lol he wasn't being totally serious you guys <.<
For someone who loves trash talk so much, you sure do get traumatized over the littlest things :/

:( this is what I mean... xyro posts stuff like this all the time and you guys freak out if anyone doesn't realize he's just trash talking...

yo xyro is a really ****ing cool dude. talking to him was tight at hobo. he's a HUGE douchebag online but he's just having fun haha.

gotta keep up with the image man.

i better see you at oh snap!

also, i never saw grab releases as a huge deal before, but idk. when i saw it at hobo, i thought you sd'ed because you had little shot at winning. oh well.

and magik is a cool dude too, regardless of your view on grab releases. it's a good strategy in squirtle's case, since his grab release is slightly behind bowser's in speed. hobo was a huuuuuge tourney, and playing to win is perfectly understandable. and i understand your decision to sd when you weren't having fun anymore. just two different viewpoints.

although idk how you can have fun playing samus in the first place...

lol jk samuses, i'd play her if my playstyle fit. <3 super metroid.

I think grab infinites are incredibly stupid unless it's like ICs where it actually requires skill to utilize them. I share Xyro's sentiments.

i'm pretty sure squirt's grab release isn't a true infinite.

also i think ddd's chaingrab is ********, even though it's not an infinite. wtf the chaingrab itself is the reason why ddd is top tier and not like...middle of high.

It's different with Xyro. We know when he's trash talking, and I think he has earned the Trash Talk badge. With anyone else, it's just not as funny. Besides, Xyro is well-known around here on this message board, so he's no stranger when it comes to trash talking. And when some people think he's being serious when he's really just trash talking, that's when the funny stuff comes in, because he isn't really meaning it.

The main thing I see this thread pointing out is that Xyro is kind of a hypocrite
I mean he goes around throwing out random insults online all the time, then he has also been known to say "it's just the internet, you can say whatever you want" or at least I've seen him post something to that extent once (and it was even defending somebody insulting him when he said it last time, not that he wasn't previously insulting somebody else before that, but anyway), yet now he decides to take this insult seriously and get flustered.

It's just the d*mn internet, people can say what they want when they want with little to no fear of getting in trouble for it. That's why we love it so much, so people just need to gain a sense of humor or some self-esteem and not take everything (or some random things and not others) so seriously.

EDIT- I should really read more recent posts before making mine, but w/e my post still applies to the beginning of this thread.
