So did those Tennessee players come to this?

#HBC | Ryker · Jan 30, 2011

Why are me and Rag 5th in doubles when we put Pharoh and Guru out of the tournament? Doesn't that, by default put us ahead of them?

Anyway, awesome tourney. Thanks for housing us Aloha. Stay at his house and you can take Elev8, true facts.

Yes, we did.

Micaelis · Jan 30, 2011

@George - I only played Wario at this tournament, no MK at all. I'd appreciate an icon change.

I had a lot of fun at this tournament. Thanks for the friendlies and good times like always.

See, this is the stuff I don't get to see because I'm too busy making sure everyone is playing matches.

#HBC | Ryker · Jan 30, 2011

We love you anyway.

*Cam* · Jan 30, 2011

George, do you have the brackets too?

Player-1 · Jan 30, 2011

why do I always have to go up against Reflex's PT instead of wario D:? Squirtle is too broken

TheLastCacely · Jan 30, 2011

what the F

TheReflexWonder · Jan 30, 2011

I think I might start exclusively using Pokémon Trainer for the Diddy matchup. The extra ground control with Squirtle is so nice.

What? Why? lol it seems to me that wario is working out well vs diddy.

I do feel more comfortable with Squirtle. It's nice to be able to fight on the ground knowing that Squirtle uses bananas perhaps better than Diddy does.

Regardless, I just don't know. Either way, I need to stop being so aggressive.

GeorgeTHPS · Jan 30, 2011

If it's mobility you desire, just run over those bananas with your motorcycle! /jokepost

Bananas should totally make you spin out on the bike like in Mario Kart.

I would appreciate that. I wouldn't even be mad.

BigLøu · Jan 30, 2011

Dont go back down that path of playing mid tiers lol, just go all wario.

THATS WHY WERE USING BETTER CHARACTERS NOW

*Cam* · Jan 30, 2011

Do you like the higher tier characters better though?

TheReflexWonder · Jan 30, 2011

*Cam* said:

I like the options more, generally speaking. I feel like I'm playing to my full potential this way.

Wario is the custom combo character, and getting in on good players takes a lot of thought. I dropped him in the past partly because I got bored of him, but there's a lot to improve on, and I can see that now.

The most enjoyable thing about Wario is the fact that I feel like everything that happens to me is my fault. I have the ability to avoid -everything,- so getting screwed by Meta Knight or grab-release shenanigans just means that I need to play it smarter.

BigLøu · Jan 30, 2011

*Cam* said:

Well, I must say it wasn't easy finding a high tier character that I actually enjoyed playing with. By enjoy I suppose you mean do I like playing them. Wel, I do enjoy it now because I feel like I am in control of the situation and I don't get gayed out by as much things. Luigi is extrememly hard to use vs campy players and top tiers, so the potential of my playing is limited by Luigi's options.

After playing with diddy now I actually do enjoy using him a lot. I am going to learn every matchup with diddy and then I'm gonna drop Mk and second luigi for certain matchups

Agreed, with diddy I can actually be in more control of what happens and I feel like when I lose it's because i need to step it up

TheReflexWonder · Jan 30, 2011

Joel, Calvin, Lounis, older brother--

I'm putting up the videos on each of the character boards' video threads. Check in and see what they have to say. I'd like for everyone to improve as much as possible.

BigLøu · Jan 31, 2011

Word. I could take any advice that I can get

theONEjanitor · Jan 31, 2011

hey guys make me good at this game

Player-1 · Jan 31, 2011

It's okay Reflex, your wario is free to an expert peanut shooter like me, biglou just isn't shooting enough peanuts yet, but soon he will realize the true potential of shooting more peanuts.

shaSLAM · Jan 31, 2011

i feel you about wario reflex. it feels so good knowing you can avoid like... anything. i miss it.

Saki- · Jan 31, 2011

I mean, I enjoy Marth and he's a higher tier character. Ike was fun at one point but he's just gimp bait.

So I pretty much only enjoy Marth because he feels the best to me.
