Super Smash Bros Brawl

[DragonFireKai]

am i the only one in the world that has the same main and alt since the VERY BEGINNING when it came out in japan

I've had the same main since the original Smash Bros. My Alt changes each generation.

[Brushfire]

I've used Samus since the old SMB64 days.

Though recently I humiliated a bunch of Japanese players as Peach.

[Garde]

I didn't know Samus was even in the Super Mario Bros. games.

[Chickenwarlord]

I've stuck with G+W since my first time playing Melee. Although, I mostly play on random when not at a tourny.

[Garde]

The four I've settled on since before the game was released in the US were Zero Suit Samus, Zelda, Link and Lucario. I tend to go through phases where I favor one more than the others, though Lucario has always been at the bottom of the four.

I guess Link, Zelda, and Zero Suit are all my "mains," since I play them all about equally and my mood is really what decides who I play as. Lucario is my "for fun" character that I'm somewhat decent with.

[Jaybell]

GW is my main, and Olimar, ROB, and Wario are my alts at the moment. My alts shift wildly in every direction whenever I feel like it ('cept for olimar), but my main will always probably be Game and Watch.

Also I'm starting to enjoy playing as Ness again.

[Master_Yoshi]

I think I'm the only one out of my whole friend group that mains the "goofy" characters... Kirby, Yoshi, and Little Link. Of course it seems to work out great because nobody expects any of those guys to actually be effective so I get the glee of the surprise kills.

[Jam Stunna]

Toon Link is fucking amazing.

I hate people who spam Kirby's Up-B

[Jam Stunna]

Also, Snowman is such a great, great song.

I hate people who spam Kirby's Up-B

ahahah this is what i do when i choose random against someone good and its kirby because i don't know kirby too well

Choose Snake. Perfect shield => up tilt. They'll be thinking twice about using that up B.

Man if only they'd kept it as powerful as it was in Melee.

[Eten]

It's Luigi for me. Feels overlooked though. Anyway, short hop double aerial any two aerials, crazy IASA frames on up-angled Fsmash, very fast moves all around, priority, KO power, etc. No real weakness. Also misfire and up-B wildcards are fun.

[Bleck]

I am trying to get Dedede as my main but I hate hate hate playing as him online. Lag + slow characters = NOT FUN.

[defender!!]

i used lucas at the start at a local tournament. went undefeated with him for a while, then got beat at a tourney. it was a pay-per-character-entry tourney though and my secondary at the time was dedede, he won it for me. been playing him ever since. just won another small local tourney and got $60.

i also just recently got over my fear of ice climbers--inhale is very, very good.

EDIT - also, what possibility would a team of dedede and r.o.b. have? they're both of our respected mains and i'm great with air combat and he's great with the ground. both take a very, very long time to kill and there are some great setups we've created.

i ask because while we haven't lost a match yet, we haven't faced anyone terribly good either.

[Chickenwarlord]

Beware of speedy characters with good priority.

[defender!!]

i've had a bit of practice against them, namely g&w. the group i play with includes a really, really good game and watch and while it's taken some time to get used to his timing (seriously, his dair has almost no lag), i've got him down pretty well. my biggest problem match right now is probably with wolf...my friend has a reflector>fsmash combo that almost always hits. since the knockback and stun time are set, he'll usually get it off.

[Chickenwarlord]

They're more a danger to the ROB of the group than to DDD. Also, Wario can seriously mess you up with his odd timing as well.

[JCvgluvr]

Also, Snowman is such a great, great song.

I like it too.

I wish Iowa had some kind of tournament going.

[Jam Stunna]

Good stuff Silent Mike, that tech in the last match was one of the best ones I've seen. Did you save it?

[Silent Mike]

I did, and I will say that it was totally a fluke from attempting to meteor cancel during the lag.

Also the Ganon Jiggly fight on lylat cruse was intense.

[Broken]

Has anyone seen this before? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSPqaai1XQU

It's an interesting concept and more importantly, it made me lol.

[Tacit]

I played some games with Silent Mike and a couple others last night. It was cool, but I definitely could’ve done without my SD at the end.

Anyway, the games were much smoother than the "With Anyone" games I’ve played, so I’ve gone ahead and added most of the OCR Database. If your name’s been on the list for a while, or if I’ve seen you post in this thread recently, there’s a good chance I’ve added you. I have a list of about 25 people I haven’t added yet, but I’ll try to add some names next week by deleting whoever hasn’t registered. If anyone’s curious, I consider myself okay, but I’m not an amazing player or anything. I’m not picky about rules.
