I played a lot of Pyro in Highlander, myself. Good to see a fellow TF2er. =)This is the first time in 15 years that I've had a steady and single main character in any SSB. It's always shifting around or is a group of characters, but these last couple weeks I've just fell too much in love with Yoshi.
Eggs are so fun. I used to play TF2 competitively as soldier in 6v6 and they feel like his rockets.
so hi
...Who in Japan was saying THAT? Like, I dig Yoshi and think he's been pretty effectively buffed since Brawl, but BEST? Like... that's really pushing it.
I was gonna say... Whew.
He's #2 on the current Japanese tier list, just below Shiek. And, honestly, I see why. His strings and pressure games are endless, and his mobility is unparalleled. He's just so fluid.
Yes, but second place? I don't think he sucks by any means, but... that really seems like a huge exaggeration. Well, I guess time will tell. I mean, tier lists mean absolutely nothing for the first year or so of a fighting game, so we'll see what happens down the road. Who knows, maybe Yoshi is top tier after all.
I think a Yoshi player just won the October cup in Japan since I last posted, but I'm not totally sure if that was the big one on Shi gaming.
Not sure how that was overly campy or boring. The guy was displaying a lot of control with the character, and he was playing smart by avoiding Ganon's raw damage. That's normally how you fight bruisers: Stay the hell away from 'em.
Well he was campy because he was campy... Just because he didn't literally stay in the exact same tile while throwing eggs doesn't make it not campy. And I personally think that strong fundamentals and camping put together makes for the most boring style, which is why I called him boring.
Hi! I sniped in HL for a long time too.
I was never a big MGE-er, but I alkways enjoy random DM servers. All the fun with none of the silliness of having a point. DM, MGE, or otherwise, we should hang out sometime. I'm going to be very busy with a big move over the next week or so, but perhaps sometime after that. Hit me up on Steam sometime, perhaps. (It's Ryusuta there... and pretty much most places, heh.)
Precisely. The Egg Lay shots were decent, but after a while, he should have started fishing for KO hits, not more filler. He overdid it a bit, but he still won so hey...
He wasn't all defense though. And yes, I know "camping" doesn't mean "stay in one spot". I just don't see how you thought the entirety of that match was him camping. He was doing cross-up Egg Lays and what-not too. I definitely know guys that camp, and that wasn't entirely a camping play style.
No, that's where people that contest him are wrong. He was playing the character well to win. Faulting him for "being boring" is on the viewer, not the player. I personally had nothing wrong with his play, but to each their own.
