well that is true. Fox is an amazing character, Pichu is not.
Pichu just comes naturally to me.
I still love fox, and sometimes my fox *****, but I'm more comfortable with Pichu. especially in certain matchups.
I know that its weird, but w/e.

I know the feeling, I play roy and fox, but my roy wins more because I understand him better and he comes more naturally. He fits my style better, I think thats what Aesir means.

I hate when I play a match with my ness, and then the same match with my falco and I do better with falco Dx
But then again, the falco/fox matchup is much better than the ness/fox matchup haha

not JV 5ing jordan?! IS SUCH A THING EVEN POSSIBRU??
lolno but I will defeat your fox... TOMORROW >D
anyways, in the interest of not letting this drift into personal conversation on a thread, I guess that the factor of skill and experience with a certain character comes before the character's tier.
I perform better in matches where I play pichu than matches where I play fox, simply because I have basically no experience with fox, but I've experimented with pichu a little bit

I mean I play fox just as much as I play Pichu.
I just started out as a Pichu player.
My style developed as a pichu-style.
Pichu-style doesn't work so well with fox...
except the nairing things and upthrow a lot part.

It depends on the matchup, there are matchups where I prefer fox (sheik, marth, falcon, etc.) and matchups where I prefer Pichu (Ganon, DK, puff, Zelda, etc.)

fox usually does better in the matchups i prefer pichu in, but its more a player thing than a matchup thing.

The fact I am considered the world's best pichu (with AesirGod, bless his soul) is quite amusing.

Fox? Eh, Uair constantly till Nairing percents. Aint fast, but effective.

Edit: I am better than Aesir BY THREE POINTS.

Pichu can Waveshine...

Wavedash - Thunder - Wavedash - Thunder
or...
Wavedash - Fair - Wavedash - Fair
Or my personal favourite...
Wavedash - Fthrow - Taunt - Wavedash - fthrow - Taunt.

They're pretty badass eh?

It would help if all of our Toronto tournies were on there...
Hmm... more were added. My **** record from before I went Fox is haunting me... Not saying I'd be above .500 now but might be a bit better. XD


Also. AesirGod's elo record 1win 2 loses. 33% win percentage. 1200 Points
Nicknyte's record 20 wins 33 loses. 36% win percentage. 1203 Points


I call skewed.

1 point compared to more wins. The ell? I am laughing heartily at our new "Champion".

No, for real. Good stuff Aesir.

AesirGOD | 1204 ELO | 2 wins - 0 draws - 4 losses (33%)
Nicknyte | 1203 ELO | 20 wins - 0 draws - 35 losses (36%)

how do I only have 33%? shouldn't it be like 50%?
and you should have like 70% or something...
what do the percents even mean, if its not wins/losses?

and lol, I'm the bestest champion in the world. I won two whole sets.

i think they only count pichu mains so thats why youre not there. pretty sure each person only gets one character. at least i saw that m2k is on the sheik list but no the marth list.
