Smash Brothers Brawl: Post here while you play!

[Metah]

lol, I got owned by King Bulbin

[BRP]

What happened there thul? I grabbed you for a split second, then I popped backwards. I didn't get dealt any damage or anything. Quite odd.

[Ryko]

Did the terrain change under you as you grabbed?

I don't recall exactly what happened, was it a shield grab? If so you probably still had backwards momentum and "fell" off the platform mid-grab.

[Metah]

Ah, good matches Ryko and who I assume to be Ant Rite. I kinda stopped trying halfway through since I'm trying to figure out why my virtual drives aren't being recognized at the same time =|

Also, I can't seem to connect now so, I guess I'm done for tonight.

[-Ant-]

thanks thul, I'll be up for more when I get some sleep D:

Oh yeah, you too metah!

[BRP]

Bowser's pretty big so maybe I fell off the ledge, but I certainly wasn't on the very edge. The terrain didn't change(main platform of Smashvile), but I don't recall where the moving one was. Then again, Bowser's size does some weird shit sometimes where I'd fall/slide off the stage for no reason. Anyway, it was weird.

EDIT: I don't remember if it was a shield grab or not, but probably it was... since that's mainly how I grab anyway.

[Metah]

And add me next time Ant

[Meian]

I really like your bowser more as I said because all I see is that up+b spam on kirby...

And why do you keep self-destructing on purpose ? :\

[BRP]

I only used Up+B like two or three times a stock with like one or two being recoveries. Much less than I used Up+B on Bowser anyway.

I don't like to play out matches that where I make a stupid mistake(like getting stuck on a platform). To me at the point the match is already ruined so I forfeit. Either that or if the match is taking too long and it's obvious my only options is to stall.

Anyway, now one of my Wiimotes are broken too. The d-pad(which I use for jumps) is now making the crackling noise like a broken NES controller would. What the hell... could this controller set up be any worse for this game, god damn. I think I broke it while practice Bowser's jump cancel.

[Ryko]

Can you tell me why I should stop fairing if all you're going to do is shield pierce me with ness's fair when I'm on the ground? If anything fairing stops you from going nuts with it which you use about 50x more than I use mine (out of grabs, to get through shields, to corner someone, when they short hop at all). I don't get why ness's is fair game and ike's use of it to keep people from getting in his face is wrong.

o_O Frankly, I learned how to use Ness from a pro Ness player and from what I could muster that it is his real only abusive move since the bat got the delay nerf now and the yoyo is decent only if they are behind me. If there were other ways to play him professionally hell I'd learn it but Ness isn't that popular enough for me to find more ways online. Heck, the PK Flash thing was something I decided to try to throw in to make it useful and use different moves. Theres also the PK Thunder angle I am trying to figure out how to push them the other way when they are coming back.

I never said you had to stop heh, it is more abusive than Ness's and it allows to follow up right away and the range+power is insane (or maybe I am slow because I can never really do another move right after if I use the sparkle when I am low on the ground) since I get grabbed often right after. You are prolly thinking of when I said before about playing tag with me chasing you and you reversing + Fair that one match the entire time. Those type of things lead to projectile spam in response (which sadly, Ness can not do as his damn PK Fire after delay/range is bad now and it curves downwards slightly >_< but it is so much better now when it does hit)

But like I said, if there are more ways to play Ness professionally I will learn it, I just haven't found anyone on youtube that doesn't use the sparkle. Well, I do see them throw more than me but I am still learning how to throw since Brawl was the only one where I started to throw of the trilogy.

Also, sorry for leaving early. I had to finish some last minute work for university and I'll be back later most likely.


Edit: Oh right, two reasons I chose Ness to main was because Mother 2 (Earthbound) was my favorite RPG and most played over and over along with Super Mario RPG, and because I really wanted a way to counter Marth back in Melee. From what I can understand, the FE characters fight somewhat similarly in terms of being in the air. This was my way of doing that back in Melee XD

Edit 2: Mm ;; I apologize if I seem rude at all, it is just me venting sometimes in Smash and I tend to do it outloud which is something I need to get over heh. You're a good player even though I have a vendetta against the FE chars/anyone overplayed in any game, no offense ;;

[Ryko]

Nah I was just wondering why I was holding back from using it when it really is the way to stop ness from just doing that all day. The forward arc keeps him from DIing in and back again since he enters from above and in front, which is exactly fair range.

[Dein]

Nice matches Ryko. I was trying out the classic controller with the second stick as attack so I guess I did alright since I had only been trying it for a little. Still got myself killed a few times when it would do a nair instead of what I wanted it to do but I had my short moments lol. Going to go back to my GCN controller and see if I don't have that problem with the c-stick as that'll hurt me a lot in the middle of a match.

[AkashiXI]

anyone want to brawl? ;o I have a few hours to waste 'til school work!

[Metah]

I'm up for Brawl too

[AkashiXI]

Nice games Arv, but you started to annoy me during FFA :/. I understand the keepaway strat, but most of the time you just stood near the ledge while everyone else fought and spammed bombs lol...

One of the people on our Thursday 9 hour long Brawl sessions does this... I purposely go after him first most of the time so he is less likely to do it in the future (not working so far though :\ )

Edit: Anyone up for Brawl also?

[Ryko]

Niv, whoever your friend is is terrible and needs to get his hand off the c-stick.

Unless I'm smashing, or using a B move, my hand is on my C stick.
