sorry, conflicting emotions of "andy played better than me in almost every match
i wish i played smash more
why am i still talking about a videogame i don't even own anymore..."

oh right, those clips still on my computer... (delete, y/n?)

Dazzles and gamebridges are the most common method I see, but some people are ghetto as **** and use vcrs to record tapes

Traditionally I've used VHS --> Dazzle. It worked.
But I got an S-video cable for my Wii, and I just went Wii --> Dazzle.

(if i had a sups-cool laptop, probably never would have gone tape)

You don't own the game? Man, you should get it; it's still being sold at Gamestop. It's still pretty expensive for a GCN game, though......$12. O_o

So as long as you have an S-video cable, you can use the Dazzle?

oh, no, just... i never had a cool laptop or anything, so before, the best way was to use vhs tapes, because they were portable. but, after i got an s-video cable, i decided, well, let's just hook up the tv right next to the computer, because now i can get better video quality. er and i think the main reason was because the clips i was recording were at other people's houses, and i didn't want to set up recording over there.. i guess. it was never really thought out.
i also used a digital camera at one point too, that was interesting, just recording the tv.

lol well, if you're wanting to find a way to record stuff... yeah, the dazzle dvc100 or 101 or whatever will be your cheapest bet and will work fine. i find it's easier to use a program like virtualdub (which can be complicated-ish, but it doesn't have to be) to record and compress your video, or at least to record. if anything, you can always use windows movie maker to compress your vids.

but if you're wanting to record for something other than smash in the future, i'd suggest doing a little homework and getting a better product that will benefit you further down the road. just saying.

but my dazzle has worked well for me, for recording a few matches at a time.

You could also use the Pinnacle Video Transfer to record things without having to have it hooked to a computer. Although it takes a long time to encode if you record for 3+ hours straight.

Linguini is really good bro, I think he knows how to fight sami.
Ganon is a really simple match-up (IMO). My main strat is to force him to approach with spaced missiles, then punish him when he throws out an attack. I honestly don't know what Ganondorf can do vs a camping Samus. Match-up chart needs to be edited.

It seemed like he let himself get frustrated which caused him to get hit by a lot of unneccessary missiles. I'm not sure if I approve of him taking you to Stadium after getting missile camped the first game or two though. What was your ban? Yoshi's?

Also haven't you beaten him before with less missiles in tourney?

Good stuff though Plup.

^he def got frustrated, talked to him after the set
he may be going shiek next time
and afaik i don't think plup has taken a set from guini w/o camping
though he has taken games

camping ganon sounds and looks pretty solid as a strat
if you see any ways around it feel free to call em out though so we can find work arounds to that lol

and yea i asked plup wtf about guini CPing stadium, i think his response was 'yea i don't know what he was thinking either lol'

ganon's only saving grace may lie in upair or nair, because his fair is too slow, and the missiles kinda prevent him from spacing bairs effectively

It might have been a set with RockCrock I was thinking of? I'm not sure.

I don't think Ganon vs. Samus is THAT bad, but getting through missile spam is probably super annoying.

If Ganon plays patiently he can probably u-air and use platforms to get through/around missiles close enough to keep Samus scared of shooting missiles or punish her for them. Ganon can kill Samus fairly well since he's strong, and his u-air should do pretty well against her if he can get below her. Edge-guarding shouldn't be too bad with reverse u-airs and just simple stuff if she up-b's.

I'd have to think for a few about what I'd put for the matchup ratio though.

I'm surprised guini didn't go to FoD (assuming Yoshi's was banned) or back to Battlefield.
