How many of you have won a tourney/money match as ICs without using a CG once?

That would be me. I nearly always fail when chain grabbing over five times, so I say why bother the risk/reward and just do other things. =P

I've taken stocks without using a grab :laugh:.

In all seriousness I've done it before. But only when chaingrabbing is banned or Nana dies really early.

I´ve probably not done it, peaople here seems to not be so good that they can avoid a CG all match XD(counting SoPos CG)

I have at least won one money match and one game in a set by not using chaingrabs(these are the two I remember).

The MM was because I wasn't getting ANY grabs but was playing really well just as ICs against his "avoid a grab" tactics(wario, I learned to pivot grab more and it makes life so much either). So I just beat him legit no CGs lol

The tourny match was because I was CGing HOOORRRIBBLY against a Yoshi and so I just made an effort to beat him in the last game of a set not using them at all.

Some CPs can really hamper you're CGing abilities against certain characters too

The first tourny set I ever won was against a Marth/Snake user. HOBO 8 (2nd tourny I ever went to), back when chain grabs were limited to only 3 grabs. I didn't even bother trying to chain grab that guy, so through the whole set I didn't do a single chain grab, and beat him.

Is it something special or something? o.O

I've done it many times, some people really don't get grabbed.

i once watched a popo get his shield broken. the dude used his nana to destroy the opponent trying to get near the dazed popo. thats 10x's better than not using a cg.
