:yoshi: I heard food. >_>

Also, welcome back Lil' B! :D

Uh, as far as rules go, you ladies are pretty intelligent so I think I can trust you to handle yourselves.

I'm not going to sticky this since it will be popular enough on its own to constantly be at the top of the thread list.

If anything gets out of hand while I'm not looking, just let me know.

OH MY GOSH I HAVEN'T HAD A CBR IN MONTHS

Cool, a general chat thread. I guess this is a good idea since it might prevent people from being off-topic in other threads.

So, what was the game that caused y'all to be Yoshi fans?

Every game that has had Yoshi as a selectable character (that was popular) I've used him, except SSB and SSBM. I wasn't playing competitively then, so I was using Mario much more exclusively than Yoshi.

BTW, Shiri, you should modify the links thread by Kiwi with some of the other important stuff that's being developed now.

Probably Super Mario World. Mario riding a dinosaur that ate things was awesome. Flying blue Yoshi ftw. I remember using him in the original Mario Kart on SNES, too (though I used Koopa more often). And yeah, like Scatz, I generally use Yoshi in any game where he's available, though Yoshi was my 2nd to Kirby in SSB.

Statistically, Yoshi should be a beast. He's heavyweight, decently agile, and has high damage % on many of his moves. Unfortunately, Yoshi's downsides are things the metagame has been designed to exploit.

Despite this, I feel the following makes Yoshi a very viable character.

A well designed game, the the tools to play it: Fact, Yoshi does not gimp people easily (save D-air, but thats a perk, not a goal), so Yoshi wishes to get the opponent's damage high then attempt some sort of knock out. Fortunately, many of Yoshi's attacks set up for eachother. Yoshi's up-smash can be combo'd with itself at low percents, allowing Yoshi 30-50% on unwarry opponents, his eggs have just enough knockback/stun to set up for another well aimed egg, and Yoshi is even packing a chaingrab. I personally don't attempt most of my non d-air kills until ~130%, and when the opponent starts seeing those numbers, he will likely panic when you try to flip the killswitch. Fortunately for Yoshi, he packs the mobility to turn panic to suicide. Yoshi is reasonabally quick on the ground (above average, borderline fast), but is also virtually unavoidable in the air. Yoshi packs multiple fall speeds, and a fast fall finisher, making landing that much more of a chore.

Yoshi packs 2 of the best disruptors in the game: Jab and N-Air are two of Yoshi's quickest moves, and pack more then enough range to punish before punished. If you want to trade fisticuffs with Yoshi, by all means. Jab pings with both Snake and Ike's quickest attacks, and is much faster, often resulting in you landing the blow. N-air kicks often into Egg Toss range, can stage spike, and can even be used to Wall'o'Pain with experience. Enemies off the stage start taking damage much more quickly then on the ground, especially when D-air becomes a threat or connects.

Yoshi can recover offensively: No secret, Yoshi can do a raising N-Air, B-Air, U-Air, even D-Air for those who wanna be nutty. Yoshi can jump into egg lay, oftentimes reversing edge guarding if used correctly. Yoshi can super armor certain attacks while rising, he can even air dodge through the entire thing. To top it off, Yoshi's Egg Toss guards the very area he moves too when he does it. Worse comes to worse, Yoshi has two suicides and 2 spikes (though 1 of each is the same) to punish any misattempted gibs, Egg lay suicides, F-air spikes, and D-air does both.

I may continue my rant later.

Yoshi Story was one of the best. Always used green , white or black yoshi. Sometimes the blue yoshis.

yoshi will always be a low tier character because of his trouble killing, his mediocre priority, and his inability to jump out of his shield. this doesnt mean he doesnt have an OoS game, it just keeps him back enough to where he cant make middle tier.

I actually fell in love with the silly dinosaur watching the Super Mario World cartoons on YouTube. I mean, his little scratchy voice. <3

And Yoshi's Story. <3

Then I played Brawl... and knew Yoshi was meant to be my guy. :yoshi:

tell yoshi bedtime stowy! =D
:yoshi:

Once upon a time, there was a little green dinosaur who lived with all his coloured brothers and sisters, on an island so plentiful with the most delicious, delicious fruit. Since the Yoshi's loved to eat, this made them very happy! The Yoshi's ate and ate, so happy as they lay on that peaceful island, without a care in the world, eating watermelons and other scrumptious fruit! So juicy the juice rolls down your chin, as you frolick and play with all those smiling Yoshi's laughing and flutter jumping all day long!

*Closes book as Yoshi falls asleep*
