You say this, but 90% of the time I play it is out of Oklahoma. Heck, I didnt even play an MK in friendlies at MLG much less see him in bracket. To be honest, I wish I would see an MK in bracket. The training I do, and the strategies i have revolve around him.That's... amazing, actually. Considering Meta is the most oft-chosen and most dominant character in the game. When I still played Brawl regularly, I was stumbling over Metas left and right. Of course Oklahoma only has one or two dedicated Meta mains who are actually any good, and with such a small scene, it's quite possible to enter a tourney or two where you theoretically would not have to face the monster.
Even taking into account the majority of Texas' smashers, there are only a handful of high-ranked players that use him; the rest of the lesser-skilled Metas are dealt with by the remaining great players whose mains have great experience from battling the likes of Dojo, and can deal with Metas who don't have complete knowledge of those matchups.
Once you get outside of the region, however, the landscape is bleak-- It's like a scene out of The Walking Dead, in which the run-down urban complex has been overrun with Mach Tornado-ing, Shuttle Looping legions, with their seemingly hive-mind mentality and instinct forcing them to devour anyone foolish enough to challenge their ridiculous numbers.
Sure, you have a few standouts that can scrape by, but for every ADHD, there is a Tyrant, or a M2K and their dozens of me-too'ers that destroy their counters quite handily in the early rounds, allowing for these players to pick them off in the later rounds never having to face that Peach or Lucario that might have given them trouble.
Or are we talking about people who claim to main one character(or characters) and then go Meta when they lose? Or people who would wreck the **** out of everyone if they stopped being lame and choosing lesser characters? Chuck Nasty and KOS-MOS immediately come to mind.
**** it, I did it again... For someone that can't play that well, I sure am mouthy...
Ill be ready =)
Yeah man where you located? I'm in El Reno that's west of Yukon which is west of Oklahoma city.
If we have time I'd love to throw those in, I dunno how many setups we could get with Brawl -
I've done it against PrinceRamen on wifi, lol. We were both shocked when it happened.
I'm in Shawnee.
I love spamming Tornado. I'll have to go to the next tournament.
We had at least 5 or 6 Arkansas players at Intimikill II. Unfortunately they had to bail because of church halfway though. We told them there were plenty of churches here of their denomination but they couldn't stay even then...
I don't really play much Brawl because I don't have a Wii but I'm not opposed to the idea. Having said that, however; I truly suck at Brawl but if you're ever in Shawnee and just bored to tears, hit me up.lol, I was about to head to Shawnee/Seminole tonight.
I need to find Brawl players around there
