Today on For Glory: a Bowsercide spammer who failed to realise after 10 straight defeats that Bowsercides now kill Bowser first. Literally all I had to do was stand by the ledge, wait for him to run up and grab me, and hold right until I won.

It was almost tragic. Almost.

Haha, wish that happened to me. Whenever I play FG it gets pretty boring after awhile.

Both X&Y and ORAS couldn't hold my short attention span.
I'm hoping Pokemon takes their time to develop the next game because it's getting a bit lackluster right now.
Actually, we still haven't heard an announcement for a new Pokemon game yet. Is the next one gonna be big?
I enjoyed X and Y but ORAS and I guess third gen as a whole is kinda...meh.

The day I agree with IGN is a sad day but seriously, 7.8/10 too much water

God I haven't posted here in a long time, It's fun stalking this thread every once in a while but you all move way too fast for me

I tried out Samus again, because reasons. Charge shot is the reason why I'd actually play Samus.

I heard the tournament I missed got a bracket reset because the version wasn't updated :^(

Anthers Ladder story

Came back home and got a ranked match going, my opponent was a nice guy.I went :4metaknight: he went :4robinf: the match wasn't boring i 2stocked him on TnC. I said 'gg' but he said nothing so on instinct i thought 'he's gonna be a *****' how did i know? Cause SV was chosen so i went :4megaman: and he went :4diddy: and ooooh boy the lag was horrible but i was :4megaman: so its cool. Got all my kills from Up Smash, lemons are too sexy.

I pressed the win button and waited for him to input the loss, tell me why he disputed the match despite the game already being over since i won twice?????

Then i played friendlies, i turned customs on and used :4metaknight:, im all happy and **** and the new player picked :4falcon: because there's obviously not enough :4falcon:in this online. I beat him on SV close game, then he picked :4sheik:(see the trend?) and i 2 stocked him, mid game he would sit there and spam those electric needles, since i got the lead why should i approach such a safe character when im using a character that has no projectile??? So he said after 'calm the **** down its friendlies' and i was like 'bruh you were camping me out when you were down a stock' then 'im trying sheik out today chill' so i used custom :4kirby: and :4drmario: and body bagged him. :4kirby: can copy needles and he ducks under then and :4drmario: has fast pills lol.

Then i went custom :4marth: and 2 stocked his :4sheik: he then said 'yea ****ing right trying new characters my ass' then i said 'well i got custom sets on these guys so imma use it' then 'suuuure and you know that upb combo smh' at this point i was laughing 'ever heard of youtube my *****(SB will censor it, i said the n word btw)?? why so salty?.

So i went :4marth: so i can dump a large load of salt on him and then he went :4mario:, but he didn't use Scalding FLUDD smh. I took his stock early with that cheesy combo and he started spamming fast fireballs, i can easily go through but he would run away so i stood there since i was in the lead and the clocks ticking. I said 'stop being a pansy' he said 'its working through' then i said 'bruh you're losing, just fight' the salt is rising in him 'i know but your better than me so i don't see the point' then i ended the convo by saying 'i'll wait'.

In the end he approached me and i bodied him blah blah, then he started ranting about stuff and i was saying 'bye' after every wall of text.

tl;dr: Anthers Ladder is reaching FG level bad for different reasons. Players are too emotional.

looking at it now, I should really main Peach. She perfectly fits my playstyle. Hard to learn, floaty, mobile, I just really like her. Another make or break with me is customs, I won't main a character without good customs. That's why I won't main Jigglypuff or like Yoshi. The won't think that is pulling me away is the fact that she's like a high tier. I'm a real tierist and I want to be known for like a mid or low tier. Even in past games I didn't main a high tier. In melee I mained Roy and secondaried Peach. In brawl I co-mained Lucas and Peach. Idk should I main her? I know the game is more balanced but I just feel guilty maining a high tier.

You shouldn't feel guilty for maining a high tier. EVER.

Don't let those tiers-for-queers whiners affect your decisions.

If they start bashing you tell them that they're masochist for using **** characters.
Thanks guys, I'll main peach. A while back I went to a local melee tournament and people started complaining about the result because it was peach vs ganon and they hated me for using peach and I haven't touched melee since. Yeah but now I'll just main peach

I never really saw Peach as a high tier character. I know in the right hands she can be really good. Don't let tiers be one of the reasons you choose a main. I honestly think you should main whomever you want to.

Don't feel guilty for maining her. Remember, the better player always wins regardless of which character they use. I can safely say this is somewhat true in this game. I personally managed to get 5th with Swordfighter, a character many would consider the worst character in the game in a 3DS tournament around last year.

Besides, Peach is a hard character to use. It's a lot better than using Diddy Kong. Hopefully, this helps.

All day.

All day.

People who main lower tiered characters should have long come to the conclusion that they're playing at a general disadvantage. People who are in the fighting game scene at all should understand this already.

Sure, people want the underdog characters to win and whatnot, but at the end of the day, if you're a bad player you're not going to win no matter what you play, and if you're good and dedicated you're gonna win games and probably decently sized to larger scaled tournaments no matter who you play.

Well I mean, unless it's Zelda, then you lose the moment you hand over your entry fee.

Good afternoon ladies! :4zelda:

How is everyone today? My chair will be arriving soon. : D
And I watched D-Frag! dubbed. Goodness, I do not like how Chitose's English VA delivers her lines. D:

So here's the deal with me: http://smashboards.com/threads/san-antonio-smash-4-thread.371315/page-86#post-18957948

This is the rankings for SA PR. I'm #13 on the list.

We have a thing where at the end of a "season", we have a Top 10 finals where we duke it out for the prize money, which is currently at $1000. In order for me to qualify, I need to be at #11 (Jbandrew hasn't been to over half the tournaments so he doesn't qualify).

There is only one weekly remaining before Finals happen. In order for me to steal a spot, I have to stay in Winner's bracket, and cause upsets vs the Top 10.

So the question is, should I go tryhard, or just not care and do what I want for the last weekly?

I would just not care because

Tryharding = Stress = Failure

At least in my experience

It won't hurt to try hard, I guess.

Hey...gen 4 might have had overdone cries, but they had among the best starter trio cries out of of any generation imo. (Gen 2 may have been a bit better)
I'm actually not sure which Gen I'd say has the best starter trio now that you mention it. Probably Gen 1 (because bias) or Gen 3. Gen 3 is funny because none of the starters stick out to me but they're all good enough and I like all their designs. Gen 2 is really good, too, though meganium is mediocre, Feraligatr's name is messed up (though it'd be weird if they changed it now), and Typhlosion has the same base stats as Charizard (lol). Gen 4 has Infernape and screwy typing, Gen 5 has another Fire/Fighting and lost potential in Samurott, and Gen 6 is mediocre.
But to be honest, when I first heard Dialga and Palkia's cries, I thought they were just different clips of a baby crying. I like the backdrop of Palkia's at the end, but both his and Dialga's just sound too exaggerated and awkward.
Giratina's was perfect however.
YES SOMEONE AGREES
Palkia's is okay but Dialga's is just horrible.

In other words, I'm just a toon.
There we go. Now it is fixed. :happysheep:

How about "dealing with the competition"?



$1000 is a lot of money. I would certainly try as best as I can. But you shouldn't try tooo hard or else you might not focus. Do your best, and try not to focus on the idea of "I have to win it all" or else you may make more mistakes. Just play naturally.

Thanks for the advice. Slush informed me how the system works and it essentially means I'd (basically) have to reach Top 3 for the last weekly to reach rank 11. That's way too tryhard for me right now. I'm happy if I get my usual 9th place.

I'll just accept that Top 10 is a bit out of reach for this season and take it easy. At least I'm #3 on the Amateur Bracket.

I finally got my new chair. It feels very comfortable.

My back feels like it's in heaven...


Also, another joke:
We should vote for Hank The Chog.
(May contain mild language.)

Wow. I've been playing in the ladder for months and the worst I've had happen to me was people that lost badly to me and wouldn't accept the loss and force me to resort to a dispute just to inconvenience me because the mods will just fix it.

Even then that doesn't happen much, usually I just play people who say nothing or are pretty friendly people who don't cause me any trouble.

I don't work on Saturdays, but today I was up at 6am to help my mom with the yard sale, yay \o/

Actually not too tired right now. Eating a mandarin orange, sitting outside on a sunny say with the sun on my back, listening to the radio as we wait for people; it feels nice.
