Played some FG, since it's been awhile.
- Meta Knight is still hard, but I don't feel like any losses were to anything other than being outskilled or laggy connections, and I can tell I'm improving with him for once (speaking of, is it just me or did FG get laggier with 1.0.5?)
・ Killed a Kirby at something like 60% with a grounded Shuttle Loop, and again around 50% with uair juggles>shuttle loop lol
・ Going for less guaranteed strings and more Mach Tornado bait-and-punishes has proven highly fruitful. Mach Tornado's priority is also pitiful though...
・ Drill Rushed a Shulk who used Vision. Learned Vision does not have invincibility because he got hit before the counterattack came out.
- Tried Lucario for a bunch of matches. My day one Lucario feels almost as good if not better than the Meta Knight I've been slaving away at off and on since release...
・ Uthrow combos feel impossible in lag.
・ I think all my kills were from either Aura Sphere, or ASC>usmash. (EDIT: One was from using Double Team on a stationary Pac-Man hydrant, because you can counter that thing for some reason. Amazing surprise tactic.)
- Rosalina by far still my best character, no other character feels more natural to me. Learning to incorporate runoff dair, it's serving me well.
- I suck at fighting Toon Link regardless of who I'm using. Kinda lag johns because I couldn't powershield
anything in that connection, but I don't think it was the only contributing factor (and the Tink player was good; stupid me forgetting to save replays. Got 2stocked with MK, switched to Rosalina after and it came down to the last hit).
