Redemption tournament
This was a winner gets his entry fee back ($10) tourney. Only for anyone who placed 9th or below in Brawl Singles. There was alot of great feedback from this, and it'll most likely become the SA standard side tourney. Everyone who lost early had a whole bracket of people at their own skill level, and we honestly didn't know how any of the results would come out. I HIGHLY encourage other tournies to try it out if theres extra time/tv's.

Reasoning for Panda being moved was so that Zook and Soul wouldnt have to play each other (they only play against each other outside tourney), and all 4 players were cool with the swap.

Lol, good **** Jowii! Stop sandbagging in actual brackets now

This was easily one of my favorite tournaments. We got ALOT of matches recorded through video camera (very much hyped), Espy will slowly upload over the weekend.

St. Phillips doin' it big!

And good stuff in redemption, JoWii! Sounds like a very interesting side tournament idea, Nike.

Im highly upset with Ethan right now.

Cool cool stuff. Lots of fun guys. And I'll crack that top 8 soon, just you watch. XD

5. Loko- GOOD ****!! Thanks for staying up with me til 5AM to play friendlies last night.
7. Big Papi (Ethan)- .....Soo...when I let you switch to Snake, I didn't know YOU were suppose to have chosen your character first, and me second. That MK ditto should've happened. >_> But no johns, good utilt w/ Snake.
7. Toxik- >.> I don't think I saw you...?
9. MaX10n- >.> Same..
9. Paw- Sorry I pikachu'd your ZSS. (My kirby wouldn't have won and I barely picked up Pika and MK for this tournament so I just chose who I felt most comfortable with in this match-up; sorry!)/
9. Greyfox- .....THIS AIN'T NO SOULSILVER; THIS AIN'T MELEE; WHERE'S THAT DYNAMICPUNCH?!? Lol. Sorry I went MK versus your Sonic in Redemption.
9. Zook- Awesome!!! I totally cheered you on and told you to take him to Frigate where you HARD READ! Sorry I went MK...

13. Geoberos- I don't remember if I saw you but uh...cool name?

17. Jowii- REDEMPTION! This ****er knows how to hype!
17. Alejandro- Have fun back in Lubbock. Good Yoshi.
17. Greywolf- Nice ZSS
17. 610- Good Pika!

Thanks Nike for housing me. That tournament was awesome. HAVE A NIKEFEST2!! >.> I'll hype it.

Espy - Ugh I hate that you always out shine everyone, we need to make a tourny with you and Prime not in it.
Nike - Thanks for everything Nike! I loved the redemption idea you had, pure genius. Had a great time, but I am still thinking about doing "Pik-A-Nik Basket"
Castro - OMG!! Castro Peach is beast? I love your peach, it is everything I want mine to play like. I am glad that I could help you with some of your set ups. We need to swap more techniques, learn more off each other. I nailed glide toss to grab perfectly.
PyleDriver - PD plays Snake? I had no idea that you did, thought you played Ike still. And also I completely forgot the MM, I am SO sorry.
JUJ - Great to finally see you back in the scene, and that you're not dead :D
Lobo - You had some great matches with the Meda Niiiii dittos.
Big Papi (Ethan) - You're screaming in your match against Espy was the best. Camera shy?
Toxik - Such. An. Annoying. Game and Watch. You did VERY good in the bracket, congrats.
MaX10n - I love our matches, and how they usually come down to us fighting to stay in the tourny.
Paw - PokeWalkers FTW, U Mad.
Greyfox - Another one bites the dust? Something else was lost? I still think it was lame how I could've camped you but never snapped to the time not being on.
Zook - Ike Chain grabs. Nuff said.
Geoberos - Good stuff, good stuff.
Tofer - Really? Really? Just leave.
Jowii - Everyone with a PokeWalker say Meda Kniiiii
Alejandro - Sorry for the bad match, I was just not too into it. I promise if we play again, I will try my best.
610 - lulz what're you doing here?

Excuse my forgetfulness when it comes to matching faces with names if I mess something up.

1. Espy - I didn't play you this tournament. Still trying to figure out exactly how to play against Sonic, lol
2. Nike - Thanks for hosting the tournament, and racing me through my Redemption tournament matches.
3. Castro - I was laughing the whole time watching the set of you vs JUJ. Peach can't kill, didn't anyone tell you that?
4. PyleDriver - I didn't get to play you.
5. JUJ - HOW DO YOU LIKE BEING CHAINGRABBED?! lol, good set there. First match I was shocked that I actually managed to beat a D3, though I did basically get very lucky twice.
5. Loko - I think this was the first guy I was playing TvC with. Such an epic game. Soki is a pain to play against as a Giant though.
9. MaX10n - Stupid cheap Ganondorf, stealing my second jump without me realizing. I need to learn that MU...
9. Paw - Nice to finally meet you dude. Ya might wanna work on the Samus though: she ain't ZSS after all, lol.
9. Greyfox - Yays, I actually played against you this time! :D
9. Zook - You would think I would try to play against the other Ike main there. But noooooo, I couldn't figure out who you were and got too hooked on TvC to ask about you. >_<
13. Panda - GGs
13. Soul - Lucario is very awkward to play against when you don't know how to. >_< GGs.
17. Niddo - You suck at this game, and you're not good at TvC either. Stop having johns, get a job, go to more tournaments so you can place better then second last...make that last actually even though you didn't have a pass to the next round.
17. Jowii - I'M AM GOING TO BURN BATS NOW, DO YOU HEAR ME?!?! lol, I really need to learn that MK MU. Stupid thing is so hard to play. Loved the announcing though.
17. Alejandro - I'm assuming you're the guy I played against who used Yoshi. Told ya he's the easiest character to hit with Dtilt spike. lol Dtiltx3.
17. Greywolf - Wait, there is a Greyfox and a Greywolf? I am so confused!
17. 610 - Dude, you need to pick stages instead of relying on my screwing up on (your) my stage choice the second round. lol, GGs.


Whoever I played with TvC with during the lunch break: I'm sorry I can't remember who you are! But those were fun matches.

this, tbh, was my favorite tournament, ever. so much epicness and fun

and game and watch should be added to my characters, since i lost gnw dittos lol

17. Jowii - Commentary hype too good. Haven't really played you aside from those last few end-of-day teams friendlies.

17. Greywolf - GGs against your Lucario.
17. 610 - I didn't get to see any of your matches :/

@ OP: I also went Pikachu in the redemption tourny during winner's finals.
Edit: Thanks for changing it~

Shoutsies:

Nike: Good games in Grand Finals. You're really stepping it up with Marth. Thanks for hosting the event too, it was **** awesome. I just wish we got more friendlies in and stuff. No love for teams.

Castro: Good job breakin' top three and getting some cash. Keep it up!

PyleDriver: Your sets vs. Castro were absolutely amazing.

JUJ: I still think you should've gone MK vs. Peach. It was still a great set though. Practice a bit more, and come back stronger!

Loko: Dang. Rapin'. That's all I gotta say.

Ethan: Your Snake's pretty good. Takin' notes from Eddie?

Toxik: You surprised me at this tournament. I'm impressed. Keep up that G&W.

MaX10n: That dash attack through Aura Sphere for the win was amazing. Oh, and harsh Falcon grunts in friendlies were too good.

Paw: Sliding fsmash way too good. lol

Greyfox: You vs. Pyle was awesome. Delfino ***** you though. x_x

Zook: Handing out hot dickings in redemption? Your Ike was so fun to watch.

Panda: Didn't play at all ;-;

Geoberos: Fun games with teams. And no, you didn't mooch. He didn't want it anymore.

Tofer: GJ finally beating Maaaaaaaaaan. Takin' notes from Castro on not SDing. lol.

Soul: We didn't play much. ;-;

Niddo: We didn't play at all, and I was ((((((

Jowii: Dang. Stealin' Nike's money. Commentary was way too crazy. lol.

Alejandro: Yoshi too crazy. He eats everything. Thanks for coming down. <3

Greywolf: What happened?

610: COUNTERPICK!!! :MAD:

=====

Anyways, I'm compressing the videos recorded at Nike's. I'll try getting them up and running by today.

Hopefully.

@Espy: Too good sir, too good.

@Nike: Amazing tournament, thanks for hosting. The Redemption bracket was a brilliant idea. You are so tenacious, I couldn't even pluck turnips.

@JUJ: You are my true rival, I even liked how we both came dressed head to toe in black and white. You may even rival me in style.

@Pyledriver: Those two sets I played with you were the best matches I have ever played. It took EVERYTHING I could pull out to win those matches. Did I trick you in the beginning when you wrecked me in friendlies? : )

@Joewii: I love you... slightly homo. Thanks for all the great advice and hype.

@Tofer: Thank you for being in my corner, the calls for Nairs and Ftilts helped me calm down and think about what I needed to do again. I do need to use more Dtilts and Short Hop falling Dairs though. We need a long Peach training session to exchange more techniques and practice, there are a lot of things I want to take from your game. Thanks for noticing the WASP hahaha.

@Loko: Im gonna call you Lobos hahaha, but nice stuff, come down more!

@Maaan: Sometimes you do stuff that I don't think should happen in this game. Shoulder dashing that Aura Sphere was probably only possible because of your manliness.

@Everyone else: I want to line up each and every one of you and do tourny sets one by one to learn your match ups. Im not kidding; if there was enough time in the day I would line up each and every one of you and play you one by one until I feel comfortable with your characters.

Castro's "Did You Know?": When peach pulls up a beam saber the attacks she does with it will be weakened versions of the ones you saw me using against JUJ. In order to get the "true," stronger attacks you must make the sword "disappear" from her body first. You can do this by either using Toad or dropping the sword and picking it back up. The more you know.

I'm excited for the matches to be uploaded. Somebody tell me when they are. I want to watch that shield break!

Thanks for the shout out Paw D:

Castro I wouldn't mind at all getting tips from you, or giving you the barely anything I can give you on Peach. I do think need to take more notes on recovery, since I have a terrible job on that sad smiley face.

1. Espy- I don't think I'll ever fight your Sonic, even with chain grabs, your too good! I challenge your Ganon perhaps, lol! Can't wait to see you vs X!!

2. Nike- Thanks for hosting this Nike, I enjoyed all of it!! Congrats on getting 2nd!!! Wish I could be in SA more for this reason...the PR lol What happened to my song?

3. Castro- How dare you train Soul and Greywolf?!! Two Lucarios that knocked me out of the bracket!?! Your dair-> uair-> utilt combo was I will friendly you later..

4. PyleDriver- Awesome Snake man, and with a wiimote? Oh, I did play you in some friendlies before your match with castro, I was the Marth and Yoshi..

5. JUJ- MK dittos are boring until the last KO, I wanted to see your DDD man, nah but the competition was tough nonetheless...loved the gavel!

5. Loko- Nice seeing another OOC player, I didn't see your wolf, did you drop him for MK? Pretty good placing anyway, hope to friendly you later..

7. Big Papi (Ethan)- Your commentary is really funny, players usually focus too much to talk during a match

7. Toxik- Your G&W needs more judgment! Good set with Nike though..

9. MaX10n- I was looking to play against you Maaaaaan! What do ya think about a Ganon ditto next time?

9. Paw- I can't say I didn't try my hardest in our set, the match-up is close to 50-50 but next time another one of my characters will have revenge!!!

9. Greyfox- Aww, you forgot me! Dude, gettin chain grabbed!!

9. Zook- Dude, your Ike was beastly!!! Great reading G-fox too!!!

13. Panda- Good friendlies, Mario gimps are good, but so are Yoshi's, lol..

13. Geoberos- Was good playing your Diddy, you need to handle your bananas better, just keep attacking! Take to the air as well fair more too..and yeah don't forget to ban RC, Yoshi's a demon on there

13. Tofer- not too into it huh? Neither was I when I kept gettin owned by Lucarios! It's good you keep close contact with Castro, you'll get better, just practice more man

13. Soul- F*** Lucario!!! GG's

17. Niddo- Yup, death by down-spikes...Dude, Ganon is beast, good games Niddo

17. Jowii- Kirbycides are gay! Pretty good friendlies though, but you know the Yoshi match-up too well already! You hyped the matches up really well too, Thanks for coming down man!

17. Alejandro- you have 34 other characters to play as!!!

17. Greywolf- same as Soul, F*** Lucario!!! Lol gg's

17. 610- didn't play you..

I'll be back in SA sometime in the summer. I'm gonna try and pick up the smash scene in Lubbock and host tournaments like these, thanks Nike for Nikefest!

Its actually Zook, Soul, then Paw that I "trained"
For the first year and a half that brawl was out me and Zook played each other for hours a day because we lived together. Earlier last year we tried to get Soul to train with us but he took a long break from brawl this year. And last year when Paw told me he "played" brawl I showed him that I "for serious" brawl.

I was so happy to see my little fledglings Zook and Paw playing each other on the main tv. Zachs fighter mentality suprised me so much that day, I thought greyfox had him after those chaingrabs and stage counterpicks, since Zach knows nothing about counterpicks, but he adapted so well.

Tofer lets keep exchanging knowledge so we can be each others cornermen, watching you will help me against Espy.

....IM NOT YOUR FLEDGLING CASTRO, IM YOUR TRAINING PARTNER





ill kill u.

awww, wheres donkey bong

Morningstar will play DK in his place!

Does anyone play online? You can add me or PM me..

Just turn down all the lights, and it'll be like Jowii and Espy (and everyone else xP) are right there!
