Seven years its been, since I entered my first tournament. Inspired by DBR's videos of old, its always been my biggest dream to have an excellent combo video. You might say thats what I've been working towards this entire time.

Well, good news gentlemen.

Its coming.

October edit: I could probably work on this thing for like the next several years and still have things that I want to improve...but I do believe its time.

I loved it! It's really nice to see new stuff in combo videos, like the intros where you can see the players and other stuff that isn't the game on screen. Small suggestion, use de-interlace in the beginning clip, it looked bad quality wise.
I loved the fact that this trailer stood out, I felt bad for you making all those good reads but not being able to punish properly because of Roy being an inferior character.

Lastly, I loved the music. Jesus Christ, you don't have to heavy electronic dance music in every ****ing combo video, have some diversity!

Never stop playing Roy, please <3

Here are some improvements to the combo video.
First off. This song clearly should have been used. 2nd, Roy was actually getting attacks off in which he was not punished. This is unacceptable. And that single sticker does not make a controller awesome. It needs to be covered in stickers and the sticks should resemble little swords. CGI it if you have too. But pimp out that controller more.

I'm getting a little caught up in uploading/splitting/music'ing videos for melee and Project M tournaments, but I'm still working on this! Expect the finish product in a couple of months at most :)

I hope you have some more actual combos for the video!

Great choice of theme for the trailer... if the vid has content it'll be great.

Yeah, it's been almost a week since you said it was pretty much finished, and we are all trembling with anticipation.
Yeah, my bad. It is actually pretty much finished, but Windows Move Maker isn't letting me do something really simple that I need to do before releasing it. Gonna take a swing through After Effects for it, but that'll take a little bit longer. Soon! :)
