lol i remember yu commenting in some blog about speeding

condoning ppl driving like 120 on the freeway cuz its apparently completely safe
son

do you even drive

if your not an idoit and the roads are straight you can handle 120

if your car is made for it you can handle 155 or more

its definitely safe

as long as your not a ******

i did 116 in my old 07 civic going completely straight

felt like i was doing 70

and i would have gone more but the engine wouldnt give anymore, poor thing

it's not safe you ****ing ******

it's only safe in certain situations which you can't always (or ever) predict

yes the vast majority of the time absolutely nothing is going to happen

but if something ever does happen the results are catastrophic

that said, i disagree with everything that traffic laws stand for and i believe that traffic cops are glorified tax collectors

I'm probably the best driver in the entire global smash community.
Literally and no exaggeration.

And to WD the way he did, you don't need to do it OOS
You get jabbed, WD back, the next jab is CCd. To get distance like that, you WD.

2 door. the 4 door does have better weight distribution but the 2 door is just sexier.

the fastest i ever went was 131mph i think. i'm not sure how fast it would go without a governor. when i was braking before the light and got to 70mph it felt so slow.

when the car says 131 its like 115-116

the speedo is way off at high speeds

it reads off rpms instead of actual mph

it doesnt take into consideration wind resistance cuz it cant read it



but yea lol after going mad quick then driving through town its so slow hahaha

i loved my 4 door... so new and clean...ugh

2 door is sexier, especially in black

ah, wasn't aware of that.

gg7's been driving a beat up minivan with captain falcon taped onto his bumper, he's doing the running pose which i think the one in your avatar is actually doing.

is dthrow>ftilt when they DI in any good at the edge?

SCENARIO: I gentleman someone as quickly and as gentlemanly as possible. they CC, should they be able to shield before the third hit comes out? or grab for that matter

No, they shouldn't. If you do the fastest gentleman you can do it would be too fast. You will get punished by most characters for getting CC anyways.

Does ftilt ever actually combo into knee? Like inescapably? I'm sure it requires wack DI, but sometimes I ftilt and they're at that perfect spot for a knee, and I always hit them, but then I wonder whether they just sucked at escaping.

dthrow ftilt is better than dthrow gentleman because people can SDI out of your gentleman (and fastfallers will often just fall out of the third hit automatically on the edge)

It's people who **** up good systems and it's people who make a ****ed up systems.

The system works sure, that doesn't mean it's not ****ed up and that people aren't ****ing it up.
That goes for nearly every system from the educational system to a systematic Falco player.
They're ****ed up and won't do any good. They'll poorly educate and waste time, or try to combo and get kneed.

There should be stickers on cars that say "Trusted Driver" or "Untrusted Driver" and speed limits should only apply to the latter. It would've saved me a speeding ticket and a court date for going 22 over in a rural area with absolutely no cars around T_T The cops clearly don't understand that I main Captain Falcon and I might just have to bring that to the judge's attention.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong for gentlemen?

I tried this: tap a 2x, wait, hold A and he still keeps on jabbing. I've tried A, Z, A, Z, and he still keeps on jabbing. The only time I've actually done it is A, A, A hold and I pressed down on the stick to cancel. It works sometimes, but it's inconsistent.

Hit A twice as fast as you can, then pause for a slight bit, then press A for a third time and hold it until the animation of the gentleman ends. If you don't wait until the animation ends, the rapid punches will come out. I actually use two variations of gentleman, one being the first one I described for more offensive purposes and then I do the two fast A presses again then pause and hit A + Z for defensive purposes. Just practice against a player-less controller for a long period of time and then once you get it down, start running around doing SHFFL'ing aerials into gentleman to get the timing down, and then try to incorporate it into games against people, even if it's not for the right purpose. This helps you because you have pressure on you now, like a match usually provides, of course =P

my friend brookman told me (and performed on me) that you can (at higher percent like high 50/60 area) you can angle down ftilt into knee.

I do it without any pausing at all. Just press A then hold down on the control stick quickly while you press A twice again. On the last press, hold A and down until Falcon retracts his fists completely.

I think that you have to hit with one of the first two jabs for this to work.

i wasnt really asking "how good is vanz"

i was more showing you guys that vanz seems to have stumbled onto a peach technique thats makes basically makes aerial->gentleman obsolete
so now your "sheil pressure" game even worst vs peach.
if u watch the rest of the match, he clearly suddenly has an epiphany and tries to do it pretty much everytime thereafter, with varying success.

once vanz perfects this technique (i.e. not accidentally dthrowing, or fsmashing), falcon is gonna be in more trouble in a matchup he supposedly wins.

whatever, this thread is trash anyway
people who don't suck weiners won't gentlemen retardedly against ANy decent player/character
