My ****ty smash 4 Zelda against Rosaluma
http://youtu.be/1p-KFQH7EVM?t=3m22s

 

[Furret]

Well overall it doesn't matter cause the point isn't to be winning all the time, it's to have fun. I don't see why it matters that much to you.

I think you and me have a different definition of fun, something I can live with and would be really happy to sleep with right about now...

 

[Fernosaur]

Realistically I probably won't be getting around to it for awhile. I want to finish EO2 and EO3's 6th strata since I never completed the postgame for either game (I got to the boss in EO3, but my party comp can't fight him and I don't want to grind a new party), and I want to finish EOU first (unlike 2/3, this game actually is taking me awhile).

Have you played 7th Dragon? It's another RPG by the EO team, my understanding of it being that it's basically EO-flavored Dragon Quest. The first one (also DS) got a fan translation almost a year ago, while it's easier than EO it might be my favorite RPG to date; my only complaint is how anti-climactic the postgame dungeon was.

I did hear about 7th Dragon the other day. I actually thought it was pretty interesting! I'm gonna look it up to see if I can play it. Was it for DS then? Or 3DS? Cause if it's for DS it's probably gonna be a b**** to find it. I've been looking for a game called Contact for months now :/.

And yeah whenever you get EO4 let me know and we'll take that bet XD. But remember to do let me know, man!!

Irish...your Zelda...

That FW usage...

This is what happens when legit dual Sheik/Zelda users lose the ability to use transform. They drop Zeldawful and go with Sheik because it's Melee all over again with these two. I Don't blame yew at all for it.

 

[#HBC | Scary]

I went all Zelda in a tourney today and got 7th/46.

The people I lost to I certainly couldve whomped them with Sheik but today I wanted Zelda to get reps. I really wanted to be on stream so I could save matches but I got knocked out before that could be lol.

 

[Fernosaur]

Wow that Rosalina was pretty bad :'D

kinda sad, I wanted to see your Zelda

 

[#HBC | Scary]

I saved something on a wiiU but matches that end up on stream ALL get uploaded. Had I won one more, the rest of my matches were gonna be streamed lol.

I'll see what I can do about the saved stuff.

The sad part is you guys will never know the stupidity/joy of spawning with Suit Pieces to throw. Or having switch/forced fatigue.

 

[the_irish_dude]

That Rosaluma only owns a DS so never gets to play on an actual wiiu. I main Sheik. I actually dont even play Zelda except for rosaluma, Palutina and maybe villager lol I dont even own this game let alone practice. give me a break. Go watch my PM or Melee Zelda and then complain to me!

DS. Off the top of my head I believe it came out between EO2 and EO3, but I'm too unmotivated to fact check right now. The sequel is PSP, because reasons (incidentally, the fan translation of that is apparently going to be done sooner than initially expected; current estimate of Q4 2015?!).

 

[Alacion]

Feel like dropping this game. No time to practise and I'd rather focus on my health/fitness and future career than a game that I feel is competitively inferior to Brawl. Also, I doubt I will ever keep in touch with any Smashers once we all get over the game.

Is this a bad mindset?

Why would you remind me of forced switch fatigue, god.

That was a trauma I was already over...

You could always play for fun? I don't really practice much because I have a lot of work most of the time, but it's fun to play with the sisters or with friends every once in a while. Investing time into a game doesn't necessarily mean you need to have a long-term goal with it, specially not a game like Smash. Honestly the point is just to have fun and maybe show off with your friends if you're good I guess.

Smash doesn't have to be competitive after all. I'd say focus on your life right now. The game is gonna be current for at least 5 years anyways, so you can keep in touch with the good people here during that time. People will come and go all the time anyway!

Just play PM or Melee

I don't think it's a bad mindset as long as you don't hold any hate towards it. If its not as fun as what you would like then no worries. Keep in touch with people you view as friends and not just because they play a game. You should always focus on health and career anyways. becoming a top level smasher will come in time if youre good enough anyway.

 

[mario123007]

Finally back...

So has anyone discussed Dabuz's tier list yet, or am I late?

I did post this before somewhere.
Still not a legit tier list yet.

Honey and Gogo were my favorite characters . Honey is too adorable.

And yeah! I mean I don't think there'd be anything wrong with a fanart thread? I have two pics of Zelda I could donate, haha.

Gogo, Hiro, are just like me, an Asian.

 

[Alacion]

I don't hate Smash lol, and I play Zelda idc about being a top player.

 

[Fernosaur]

Then just keep not caring much. There are more important things to keep your mind busy right now. If/when you wanna get back in Smash most people will probably still be hanging around here .

 

[the_irish_dude]

dude your avatar looks like Bwett lol

 

[Rizen]

Good work Ed

Ugh, I'm having first world problems. I keep getting bad item luck in classic mode with MK where I'll die from a pokemon or assist trophy as the opponent gets a smash ball or 3 part super item. And my internet keeps going out making it harder to whine about it online.
I'm tired.

I used PT in Brawl. The fatigue sucked and smart opponents could exploit it.

Edit, wow activity surge in the last 15 minutes, lol.

 

[Fernosaur]

dude your avatar looks like Bwett lol

That name sort of rings a bell but I dunno who it is....

Anyways, it's Chris Pratt with baby velociraptors because Jurassic World

 

[the_irish_dude]

Bwett is Mr. TLOC. He is the brain behind the Tourney Locator stream.

No, if yew really can't or don't want to. just drop it, it's your choice. Work on your career and health, it's also better anyways. About it being less competitive than brawl, I think that's untrue because it's only been out for like 5 months. It'll probably be more faster and competitive after months or a year. No matter what decision yew choose, GL sis

I so want a New 3DS XL, can't give up Smash4 yet
And seriously, playing competitively all the time will hurt you. Sometimes just go and have fun.

Also he is like totally hot

@ Sinister Slush

I just watched DBA3 today. Some surprising stuff

- Treluh still uses Shulk O_o ? I was sure he dropped him
- What does aer0l1nk think about Palutena? This is weird because he mods the Palutena boards (I'm seeing him use Diddy). I think he gave up on her but I really hope it's not because of what I'm thinking
- D@kp0 uses Luigi? I thought he primarily uses ZSS
- Why is Dallas riddled with Diddy mains? I seriously just saw 10 images of diddys when I checked the list of videos for DBA3

 

[Mericus]

Sooo... I think I'm sick.... really bad...... again

I get sick far too often due to my immunity system being non-existent ( Epstein Barr patient since birth ) and I really don't think I can keep up with this Thread anymore due to various IRL issues going on.

I'm taking a leave for awhile, sorry to my friends here
( I honestly don't know if I actually made any or have even ever been liked as a person here tbh :/ ).

I tried REALLY HARD to get that fun casual group going, but everytime I just kinda failed at it so I'm sorry to the few who were interested and I'm starting to lose interest in getting it to work myself after soo many attempts

IF I've made actual friends here, send me a PM or notify me / somehing idk. I'd rather not leave a friend behind if I'd made one along the way.

I may not return, but if that IS what happens I'll just say that anyone wanting to contact me only need remember my name.
" Mericus " is the name I have on literally everything, so if I don't return, just know you can add Mericus on PSN/etc. and know it'll be me.

I hope I haven't caused any trouble to you guys n gurls + good luck to you all in your lives.
In the short time I was here, I enjoyed this Thread's n Member's company <3

 

[Sinister Slush]

Denti's Bizzare Adventure?

Trela is having identity crisis with Smash 4 similar to someone in our city since their mains is either bad or just not fun anymore.
So he has like Dr. Mario Meta Knight Robin Charizard Shulk and maybe someone else I might not know of yet. Otherwise he didn't "drop" per say any of his characters, only real drop is Lucario.

No idea what heo thinks of Palutena, he prolly likes the character itself, but he wants to win so Diddy Kong.
And somehow he's beating Denti, a better player than him, in the ditto. Funny enough after the tournament yesterday some of us in my town were talking about that, either Denti got worse and ALSM better or both are just frauds.
As for being mod, a good portion of character boards just had anybody added. Yoshi for example had two people added who didn't even play the character but then a couple weeks later they added an actual Yoshi main, so now there's 3 mods for one of the more dead boards like Mii swordfighter.

Dakpo used Luigi in Brawl too as a secondary, not sure why he isn't going ZSS this time around with how silly her UpB is but he's doing well with Luigi since he won against ALSM in a recent tournament (unless what I watched a few days ago is the DBA3 tournament)

Dallas is dumb and wants to win without having fun. Our best player in SA is a fox, sonic/little mac, and Pikachu that's finally giving the business to a diddy kong that was beating him the first couple weeklies.
Houston Trela I'm sure with his multitude of characters, fliphop who can't be called a bandwagoner since he mained diddy since brawl days, grim (razer) with falcon and jr. and I think Gnes with shulk but he doesn't attend enough tournaments.
Dallas has always been the city with the tip top tiers even tho Denti was the only one there that was good on a regional/national level.
ALSM was a "Link" main but used Tink and D3 early on then eventually MK.

 

[Berserker.]

That's also another thing I wanted to ask. Didn't gnes use Diddy in Brawl? Why did he switch?

Thanks for answering btw. I'm interested in Texas' competitive scene particularly SA and Houston because 3 stocks (and the fact that they aren't really Diddy-infested)

 

[Sinister Slush]

Not playing the game as much and didn't feel like trying I guess.
I can only imagine how ****ed we'd be if he played Diddy, it'd be like Zero's Diddy.

 

[SBphiloz4]

@ Alacion , I know that feel. But if you aren't ready to fully commit to a game for life, you are more than welcome to focus on what you really want to do with life. I know I sound like I really want to be competitive when we talk, but in the end, I know that I can only do so much when my mindset is just have fun and remember that other life things are more important.

I'm mostly going against you dropping the game entirely. But it doesn't mean you can't play it for fun once in a while. Might have pressure considering your stance in our region in Brawl but life changes and we all change, so you shouldn't feel pressured to perform to Brawl levels when you don't have as much time in your hands because of life. In the end, follow what you believe is right, friend. c:

Hah
We're super special snowflakes when it comes to tournaments, just not to the extent of customs/miis yet but that'll happen eventually.

SA videos for our weeklies, some more will be uploaded today

Honestly, the only way I'll 'get over' Super Smash Bros. 4 is when the enivitable Super Smash Bros. 5 gets released for the next system(s).
Same thing happened to Smash 64 into Melee, Melee into Brawl, and Brawl into 3DS/Wii U.

I think it's a terrible mind set (personal opinion)
Each game is so different to one another that comparing them isn't really doing any one game justice. Trust me melee players won't give smash 4 more then 10 minutes because it isn't melee. Melee has left just as much of a good mark on the community as a bad one. Saying brawl is better then smash 4 because reasons isn't really doing either game justice.

As far as life focus goes, It's smart that you're trying to make sure you keep your life balanced.

 

[Space Stranger]

Hello Zelda mains, what's ne-

I always behave nicely, let me have my fun

Oh, by the way, Aero! The BR for Big Hero 6 got released today or yesterday or whatever and someone put these up. I thought you might like them, the first alt intro is pretty adorable.

@KuroganeHammer

Thank you for this.

 

[Alacion]

I actually play Melee as well, so I'm pretty open minded about Smash games.

I do feel like I have to perform but also dealing with fast characters is a nightmare for me. I seriously think I could place in top 5 of the PR if I mained a high tier. For now, people just camp me like mad or switch to a rushdown character when they lose to me game 1 and I end up losing. I can't keep up with everybody else

 

[Rickster]

@ Alacion If you want to drop the game for IRL stuff, then that's ok. It sounds like your fitness goal thing is coming along really well, so it would be even better to focus more time on that.
As for the keeping in touch thing, it would be a good idea to at least talk to any good friends you've made, IMO.
I think Smash 4 has more potential to be better competitively than Brawl, but it will need some more time to develop.

 

[Alacion]

Actually I tried really hard to meet up with them and do non-smash stuff. Pretty much impossible these days and honestly I don't think I'm really good friends with smashers, though I do get along with them just fine.

Hmm...well if you're not particularly close to anyone then disconnecting from them shouldn't be so bad. Just don't be surprised if some of them try and get a ahold of you again, lol.

I think it's just the fact that the game is still so new, there's just so many people out there with various fighting styles, and you constantly have to adapt. And with a seniority kinda feeling, you kinda feel pressured to be better than them, which might get to you sometimes. It's still a new game, so skill level is almost fair game for now.

Plus, our region is so notoriously defensive, it's incredibly sad that the ZELDA PLAYERS are actually going in and approaching (me, you and probably Dawson as iirc he's using her in the online tourney). Give it time and the not so skilled people might filter themselves out, leaving you with practicing with the best of the best, meaning a more productive improvement session. Of course, more important thing IMO is to have fun with the game, because why play it when you're going to complain about it?

And you can talk with me about non-Smash stuff, no sweat. Not like I am a hardcore competitive player anywho. :^)
