Nah, he just uploaded them to the wrong channel by accident. He might've picked up on it sooner if it didn't take so much effort to get Jamie to walk downstairs to tell him. :awesome:

Good **** Jack, and shoutouts to Dan for using Kirby in doubles. =P Good job Alvin, Darren, and Yoshiii6 as well. ^.^

^ well, that is one MU that I think i can win wit lucario. the matches are close against u whether or not i play mk or lucario....

anyways, i was really talking about pika,wario and peach. after gettin owned by darren i realized my mk is shiet against peach. i probably am not playin the MU rite but in any case i think ill try lucario next time

i have to give him a try to see if he is viable or not

Way to go, man. Though I think that giving Lucario a spin is a good idea, keep it up with trying Meta Knight against Peach.

That's what I'm going to do against Luke. I know I can win with Sonic against Ice Climbers. It's my fault I don't win because I get too impatient and I have to be a lot better with switching between fighting Sopo and Nana when I seperate them. Using another character is fine, but overcoming your weaknesses with the main you use (in most situations) will do you better in the long run.

There's no need to switch to lucario vs peach. You almost won, and you could easily learn the m/u. Obviously lucario is good in other match-ups though.

whenever i play darren it is always so close, i mean i usually win with mk but i believe it is the 1st set he has beaten me peach vs mk. im not surprised in the least ...imo it was a matter of time before i lost since darren is a beast and has gotten so much better.

i am thinking that a switch up to lucario might make things easier for me... iono we'll see.

~Ramblings of a noobish Peach player who's only used her at one tourney~

I wouldn't give up on Meta Knight just yet. Meta Knight severely beats Peach in the air and on the ground. Tornado spamming is actually sort of viable since nothing can really beat it besides a perfectly spaced fair (don't count on it) or a nair while she's in the tornado (not guaranteed). Even if nair hits, she'll likely have lost her float in which case you need to capitalize! Peach loses her approaches and has very few options in this matchup.

Peach's air dodge is worse than Zelda (ie. it barely exists). When she's high up or off stage she's extremely vulnerable to Meta Knight she has so few options. Recovering back to the stage as Peach is incredibly stressful and nerve racking. Like Mark says, Shuttle Loop is sooo good against Peach due to her air dodge.

She also has really bad options on the ledge, imo. She can fair from the ledge, ledge attack, or jump back on the stage and dair/nair. Just stand back and spam dtilt or something. If Peach jumps, punish her!

Once you learn the Peach matchup, you'll have a very easy time against Peach.


I only have a bit of Lucario experience from when I played against Big D. At first, it sounds like it's a smart choice because Peach can really dish out damage but is unable to land the finishing blow but I think the matchup here is far easier for Peach. Some of Lucario's decent attacks like fsmash and dair can be dealt with by floating and utilting respectively. Lucario's Aura Sphere can be cancelled (except at near maximum charge) by most of Peach's aerials and Peach really wrecks Lucario offstage since she can nair through Lucario's recovery. On the flip side, he has those really annoying combos and can be devastating if Peach can't land a kill move.


DTP you're amazing! Grats on placing so well!

Oh wow thanks guys :)

I played surprisingly well against MK on Saturday. Not sure why tho.

Lucario is a ***** haha I think I hate fighting him more than MK tbh. Using both MK AND Lucario is what I'd recommend.

Peach has trouble killing. Lucario gets stronger with more damage. Peach dies early.
Lucario ruins her......
