:yoshi: Look at all these amazing Yoshis actually eating their signature food! Not even Sonics can claim this mess.

Everybody is stepping it up. We've got nowhere to go from here but up, guys! :D

Also, Furbz: you'll like the chicken carb from Quizno's more now, but in about a month's time, you probably won't be able to eat the thing if you go there on a semi-regular basis.

Pretty good. I tied for fourth in Pools, and if I had 1 more win... I would've came 22nd. =(

I just underestimated Pokemon Trainer and ****ing Ivysaur Spam. >_>

You lost to POKEMON TRAINER!? =O

Well, I guess that's understandable. I once underestimated someone who played Pokemon Trainer and he whooped me as Squirtle. After that, I vowed to be as mean as can be when fighting Pokemon Trainer, which includes egg-spam, chain-grabs, edge-hogging, and, of course, the GRS. =P

Not really Pokemon Trainer that gave me a problem.

It was more or less ****ing Ivysaur. >_>

When I mentioned egg-spamming and edge-hogging, I was referring to Ivysaur. It's very succeptable to both (especially edge-hogging).

If Ivysaur is putting up a good defensive game (which it has), then try to predict what moves it'll do that'll try to counteract you and punish it. Just be careful about approaching from directly above, since all of Ivysaur's up- moves are dangerous and/or quick. Also, don't forget that d-smash works wonders against it when it is near the edge, too.

Marik, I can understand. Ivysaur can be a pain at times. The quicker you take out Squirtle, the easier the matchup will be. This helps big time when you fight Ivy since you can outcamp and edgehog him.

Just another day.
So, I gotz a tourney this weekend. I'm hoping to place well with my terribad Yoshi this time. I'm also getting my Wii back tomorrow, so I'll be getting videos recorded from there for critique.

Oh yeah, if you watch any of the newer videos that I might post and you don't see me pull any DRs, it would most likely mean that I can't use it against that playstyle, or I haven't warmed up completely to effectively trust that I'll pull the move when I need it.

That's all! Terribad Yoshi out!

Nice placing, Poltergust.



Yes. I went to my first tourney a couple weekends ago, and had the Official Food of the Yoshi for lunch. I was a little worried at first, since I've never really liked ranch (based off of my dislike for Cooler Ranch Doritos), but it was awesome (with lettuce, tomato, and hot peppers). Though I lost both of my sets, I did take a game in each of them (which I was content with, for my first tourney), including a JV 3 stock of a DDD, which I credit to the power of the CBR.

I learned that if you get shredded cheese on your CBR do not get doubles cheese because only half of it will melt. With american cheese it's all set though (I have to get double cheese, there just isn't enough)

I love playing as ivysaur, fighting her is a hassle though one missed close range attack (anything but egg toss) results in bulletseed =/. Heck I give snakes a problem with Ivy, she's just too good.

I've had better sandwiches.

Chicken, bacon and ranch are all good things, but Subway just kind of failed putting them together.

Plus, like, microwaved chicken strips and bacon... make that **** at home, with REAL bacon and chicken, then we're talking.

You misunderstood what I said. When I said the quicker you take out Squirtle, the easier the match will be, I meant as in the faster you own Squirtle. I meant it like take Squirtle with the least possible damage. This makes fighting Ivysaur more convenient.


Also, I <3 your sig, but I miss Horsea already.

Just make sure you save that anger until you finish the match, cuz it'll affect your judgment and make you lose.

I have quite a few results. =)

This one is for normal singles:

R@vyn's Monthlies at Play n' Trade (3/21/09)
3rd out of 20 (I finally win some money! :bee:)
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=220955&page=17 (He didn't post the brackets themselves, so I'll just link to the page with the results)

And this one is for low tier singles at that same tournament (not sure if it counts, though):

R@vyn's Monthlies at Play n' Trade (3/21/09)
2nd out of 12 (More money! :bee:)
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=220955&page=17

And these results are from the tournament I hosted today:

Brawl: Rise to the Top at My House (3/22/09)
3rd out of 14
Miami, Florida
http://i43.tinypic.com/27ya7bm.gif

Anyways, the first tournament I have listed here should count to the Power Rankings since I was all Yoshi in that one. I don't know if the second one counts because it was a low-tier tournament, though. The third one doesn't count because I used Zelda for ONE match. (And I still lost :()

I didn't want to repeat what happened to me on the 14th. I got infinited against a wall when I was playing against DewDaDash in a crew battle.

It was not fun. :(
