why is it that half the 'combos' involve you getting hit by a cpu?

Edit: and why is EVERY clip on fd?

Youtube Description snippet:

This video is not meant to show off any 'skills', I don't care if im not the best Olimar, if I am then that's good but if not then I don't care, because I've got an Xbox 360 ;D

you prolly fail at halo/CoD/Gears as well

Here's a few suggestions:
1. A few of them were combos. Good job. However, many of your "combos" can be avoided with DI, something lvl 9 CPUs lack skill at. To find real solid combos, you need confirmation by using them on real people. CPUs often DI the same way, often to their disadvantage. Either that or they would have no relevance in competitive play. Like most of your meteor smashes against G Dorf are easily countered with a Side B suicide smash. Or Down B -> Up B. CPUs take a lot of training to learn that kind of stuff, and they probably will never learn it.
2. Watch some well established combo videos. They're all over smash boards. Learn from them.

I'm not saying "NO DO VEEDOS NO MOAR", you did some stuff right. For instance...

You didn't use obnoxious and terrible music. (+1)

In the future, if you find a combo on a CPU, try it again a few times, on different characters too. Then find a friend and try to use it on him/her. If you succeed, tell him/her that you think you found a combo and tell him/her to try to avoid it. If it succeeds often, it's probably a combo!

If you make a video from a combo, try introducing the combo by using it in training mode, then show a few clips of you using it in REAL MATCHES (important!). It gives direction to the video. I mean, 10 minutes of Olimar meteor smashing characters is great, but give it purpose!

:laugh: quoted for the lolz

uh, yeah, CPUs aren't a good idea to use in a combo vid except to please yourself. if you're looking for real feedback, prolly want to submit a real vid.

Would you people quit being so cruel to the guy? for gods sake all he wanted was some help...stop bashing him so much...We are supposed to be friendly...-.-

I agree with Dabutcher, he pretty much summed up my thoughts

Sorry for being realistic. Please next time I'll be nice. Your combos were great! I'm sure those CPU's had it coming. Keep up the good work. See? That would help nothing.

Did I say "OMG you suck!"? People need criticism to go farther. And sometimes you need to look at it a different way other than the "nice" approach. Negative bashing is more effective.

good **** Brawl community. someone dude in England, who doesn't go to tourneys probably at all, makes a video of his Olimar fighting CPUs completely innocently, and you big time pros choose to just **** the **** out of him because you disapprove. lol nice.

reflects your game's logic. all y'all just tripped.

Let me warn you... basic brawl is just as bad as CPUs... seriously... you'll get flamed probably even harder for screwing up a second time. just challenge people on this board or something.

Sorry, really if you want people to make positive comments about your combo video, refrain from using CPUs next time. Also, the whole video was basically meteor smashes. Not too entertaining. Otherwise, I guess you have a decent Olimar, better than mine at least.

Seriously...

After reading these last 2 pages, Im almost ashamed to consider SWF a "friendly" site. Stop being so arrogant and rude some of you guys. If you all think you're some kinda pros and wanna bash on some innocent person who wanted to make a simple video for fun, you guys gtfo, not him.

However dubuall, I am gonna say that posting this here was not too smart of a move, as most people here are passed the stages of cpus. But, seeing as you now have wifi, you should get out there and find some people to play with, have some fun, improve, and make that new combo video :)

Well, I'll try my best to explain how combo vids are fail.



*ahem




The general consensus on Super Smash Brothers Brawl is that combos do not exist. This is nearly true, because of reduced hitstun and increased knockback on a few attacks which could previously be comboed out of (my best example here is Jigglypuff's up throw). It is true that there are some true combo, but those ones are generally lame and escapable after a bit with SDI, for instance being fox and repeatedly utilting the opponent. It can be a true combo at times, hitting the opponent before they can actually escape, but to be frank it's extremely boring to watch and hopefully nobody EVER puts that in a combo video. Another example of something that should never EVER be put in a combo video, is lame chain grabs. They're freakishly effective (speaking as a Pikachu Main) but not at all fun to watch. You can down throw a Fox repeatedly until he is at like 100% damage as Pikachu, but just because it's a true combo so to speak, does not make it thrilling to watch.

So we've gone over the fact that combos pretty much don't exist in brawl except for a few situations, which is why the actual term "Combo video" is a lie. "Cool Plays video", although it sounds rather lame, is essentially what all combo videos are. You can still make cool brawl play videos if you want, but it requires playing a lot, and against real people. Don't expect to be making insane plays right away, because they really don't happen all that frequently.


Oh, and the best Brawl Combo video I've seen to date would be this one:

lol @ u for putting in too much effort... wtf just call chain attacks comboes... i bet some geek somewhere probably just said "these aren't combos!!!".

no offence Captain L, but wtf. its just a game.
