YOSHI TOURNEY HYPE!!!! Genessiiis

[CelestialMarauder~]

Uptilt Dtilt Upsmash Fsmash Dsmash Uair Bair DashAttack Jab Egg Eggroll Grab.... Nope No egglay in that match. Is Egglay even useful in this matchup? In the most basic sense all you need is Upsmash Pivot grab and eggs. Every Option you add onto that just makes to matchup a little easier.

 

[Flayl]

Guys I'm not saying Bowser doesn't lose if the Yoshi doesn't use egglay, I'm saying it sounds like KingKong played the matchup incorrectly if Delta didn't even need to use it and 3-stocked him. Does anyone know if the matches got recorded?

 

[Z'zgashi]

It sounds to me like you don't understand how bad yoshi walls bowser even without egg lay. Bowser has pretty much zero options if you play super campy and gay, and as we are speaking of Delta, that sounds pretty correct.

 

[Delta-cod]

The matches were played on the stream, so yes, they should be recorded.

And no, I didn't need Egg Lay because I didn't need to approach. All I did was wall an approach, juggle/combo a little, then reset to camp. Bowser has like, no options to approach against Pivot Grab/Usmash. Yoshi doesn't need to approach, so Egg Lay isn't needed.

^This. Any idea who wouldve recorded/uploaded it?

This should be it, I really need to start going to nationals. But then I think... Why should I spend money to go OoS tournaments too much gas/money just to probably lose to MK/high tier.
I'd go if someone else drove and there was more people from my own city going.

 

[~Firefly~]

Oh, Delta actually did use a couple egg lays near the end. =0 He landed one right at the end, b-reversed once to avoid a punish, and threw one out as he approached the ledge recovering in case KK tried anything.

 

[Flayl]

Yea it's pretty apparent he doesn't know the matchup very well. Smashville first game, tried to hit yoshi tossing eggs on the ledge, all the completely unsafe airdodges into Yoshi, used DAir a lot for some reason, missed tons of opportunities to jab Yoshi, etc.

But yeah the mu is still garbage.

edit: Yeah I was going to comment on that egglay stuff lol

 

[Z'zgashi]

Thanks Slush.

 

[Luigisama]

If I'm not mistaken I think a doubles set that Delta and Raptor won was saved on Raptor's wii. So it should probably be uploaded sometime next week because Raptor is lazy yoshi. inb4raptorsayshedidn'tsavethematch :@

To be honest, I don't think it really mattered what he did when landing, I just would have changed my methods a little bit. Bowser has no options. Even in general, if he started punishing my riskier camping, I just would have...camped safer. Lol.

If I'm not mistaken I think a doubles set that Delta and Raptor won was saved on Raptor's wii. So it should probably be uploaded sometime next week becasue Raptor is lazy yoshi. inb4raptorsayshedidn'tsavethematch :@

I don't remember, so you'll have to ask him. =P

 

[Zigsta]

Bowser is sooooo bad against Yoshi.

He's our best wingman--why can't we all just get along?

Just saw the match. KK really needs to not waste his double jump in the air above Yoshi. That's just asking to get pivot grabbed.

 

[Poltergust]

Oh yeah, I forgot about CEO! Who's going to that?

 

[Z'zgashi]

Florida is waaaay too far for me, or I would :/

Im hoping I can go down there sometime early next year, like January-March or so.

 

[CelestialMarauder~]

So uhhh for tournys you want me to add up there, Genesis, CEO i guess, CoT and anything else?

 

[Z'zgashi]

SiiS5 maybe? But I dont know if anyone is going to that, im not.

I'll post the twitter link here later if you want to follow it.

 

[Delta-cod]

Awesome. Good luck Yika!

 

[Yikarur]

thanks a lot =D making it out of Pool will be easy (4 or 6 will advance) but the bracket.. ugh :D

 

[Delta-cod]

I have great faith in you, my child. <3

 

[~Firefly~]

Good luck! I will lurk the twitter updates as much as I can. =3

 

[Yikarur]

twitter liiiink!

http://twitter.com/#!/owncontroller

[Yikarur]

Today are team pools, tomorow Team Bracket + Singles,
I hope I'll make you proud! ;0

 

[RaptorTEC]

Good luck Yika.

Going to Uprise 4 on saturday (should be 25-30 people). I've placed 9th in each one of these so far so I'm looking to break that curse.

 

[CelestialMarauder~]

So assuming that our boy Yika entered Dubz, he did not make it out. Stay tuned~

 

[Delta-cod]

I was very sad to look at the bracket and not find his name anywhere in it. Competition must be tough. =[

Update: Yikarur got second in his singles pool!

 

[Yikarur]

hey guys! I'm 25th out of ~80 >0<

lost to istudy (Top Diddy) and to Snopy (annoying Pit)
I told you 2 years ago how much I hate Pit!! and it still didn't change, I should've played Diddy against him but I stayed full YOshi all the time (played ICs once against a bad falco in Pools though after I won the first match with ease)

well I played really good but I just can't fight Pit :'/

well I almost beat istudy >__< it was so close, I counterpicjed Brinstar vs. him and it was reallly ****, Brinstar too good.

it's really stupid that I didn't win though =(

and Pit is so frustrating >__< stupid designed character.

well tomorow brawl- (and low tiers but I don't think I'll enter because no Pot and I could focus on Brawl- this way)

Love you guy <3 =D

oh and I beat the best norwegian MK player in Pools lololol

Yoshi <3


and I didn't make it out of Team Pools, I had the hardest pool probably (2 Pikas, 2 Toon Links, Diddy + MK/Toon Link, Diddy + MK (Luigi_player, Orion)
almost everyone of them are good team players, I really wish to had every other pool instead

 

[CelestialMarauder~]

Awww well good job yika. Name everyone that you beat :<

 

[.selebu]

I beat Chiii (MK), Clade (Falco) and X (Falco) in Pools and Yoh (Ike) and NeK (DK) in Bracket.
Lost to Akuma (Snake) in Pools and to istudy (Diddy) and Snopy (Pit) in Bracket
fuuu Pit

I won an MM against BPC 3:2 =D 3€

 

[Sinister Slush]

Looks like i'll have a bit of updating too do for the tournament results thread. And I might update the T5Y thread as well when I have time...

Another thing, I forgot to make the 2 weekly MU thread, I guess having another week added to it won't kill anyone... Since not much discussion is coming forth from boths ends (Telling the respective character boards as well)

 

[F-Tier Player]

Great job Yika, Pit is on my list for most annoying characters too. Pit should be our next MU discussion *looks at Slush*

 

[Sinister Slush]

I'm just going down the list, which is alphabetical order. Next MU thread will be wednesday I guess, unless people actually want to discuss things quicker and get to Pit already.

 

[F-Tier Player]

Who is next on the list? I guess we'll find out wednesday.

 

[RaptorTEC]

Going to a search for knightmare516 tomorrow. Its a regional in NY and will have a livestream. Delta you going? :I

 

[F-Tier Player]

Are any Yoshi mains going to the Albuquerque tourney this weekend? I'm not going, but just curious to know who is.
