Seriously, I don't know why you guys think RC is bad...

EASILY diddy's best stage.

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, shhh, shhh, shhhhhhh. *Covers your mouth*

Don't TELL everybody!

They'll know!

Now repeat after me:

*The Diddy Secrecy Oath*

I hereby pledge an oath that I will not speak of the awesomeness of Diddy Kong henceforth.
I will maintain on all accounts that despite any and all accounts of utter pwnage are merely the results of luck, randomness that cannot be easily reproduced, or any combination of circumstances that would imply any amount of player skill or character ability could engineer a level of great Diddy Kong play ability.

I will uphold that Diddy Kong's naners are so much of a double edged sword that any smart player would never use them, and a player that uses them (Like myself) is a n00b. I will preach that it is merely an unexplainable consequence that Diddy's aerials are of any use when spaced correctly and used conjunction with banana peels and I shall make all others believe that Diddy's glide toss is amongst the worst in the game when compared (In length) to other characters.

However, I will always remember that Diddy Kong is the best character in Brawl.
No exceptions. Not even for Metaknight.

:laugh:
But seriously. Watch some of the vids in my sticky. NAN3RZ and NinjaLink have a few good videos.

Basically, get good at glide tossing. It's his greatest strength.

I can make myself a good example of how important glide tossing is. While playing onilne, my win percentage after I learned to glide toss is about .200 better than before i learned to glide toss. Of course, I improved in other ways as well but the main reason is glide tossing.

I never knew Diddy was good, to be honest. Seeing as I myself am a Diddy mainer and all.

Jk.

And Diddy's supposed to be good, isn't he?

I haven't learned any dribbles yet. I'll learn it sometime this week. I been playing starcraft lately
starcraft lol, I guess its true everyone on these boards are nerds.

Dribbling is a cheap substitute for wavedashing, and dashdancing and blabla w/e its fun to do anyway.

I'm not really a nerd. I play sports too? I'm just competitive and starcraft/counterstrike are probably the most competitive games you can play period.

You 2-0'ed me in pools GDX and I got soooooo upset XD. Then I realized that I had no idea what to do against diddy considering I have never played one. Luckily, I thought of a pretty good strategy before I played you in brackets and managed to knock you into losers XD.

Really I just made this topic because I saw everyone keeping diddy quiet so I thought it would be funny.

I started playing diddy last night :). Practiced double and single dribbling, but I got that down in a few minutes... I will try to get a match up soon to see how I am coming along.

I hope I can progress as fast as I did with Falco :).

Diddy is like the ultamite main or secondary, your ownly bad matchups are the ones that can be beaten with experience. Unlike ganon vs falco, diddy can give falco a hard time (which is probably his worst matchup)

As soon as somebody says the words 'Rainbow Cruise', the match would become a Metaknight Ditto lol.

Lol guys.

Yeah...Diddy is pretty much amazing. Don't worry, I already knew that.

*looks around, checking to make sure he isn't about to get jumped for not being a Diddy main but being in the thread*

Seriously, though, some of the stuff I have seen you Diddy mainers do has blown me away. What with bannanas. And all. Oh, and bananas. And more bananas. Did I mention teh bananas?

The Lucario boards should have done this secrecy thing lol...back when I joined it was usually me and like 5 other guys posting regularly and now its filled with new posters and spam. But with the new posters also came some really smart people too.

I agree, this stage is indefinitely banned from tournies as soon as people realize diddy's potential on it.

Lmao, if you really want to keep Diddy a secret, delete all Diddy youtube videos

All those nanners in anyones face will convert them to teh monkeyy side, you know what I'm talking about.
(Hint: They will want to do Diddy's AAA frequently.)

Hylian: your days of fearing MK are...still here, but Diddy probably has one of the easier times against him than most characters.

Yay! I repped Diddy!

First place at tiny Naples tournament with 2 day old infant Diddy!

Oh, and Rainbow Cruise is amazing for Diddy. I can throw banannas in completely desolate areas!
