Arek the Absolute Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Having a wife that actually knows wtf she is doing in smash is a definite +1. Good stuff, though your Roy could use some work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam Stunna Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Thanks. Yeah, my Roy has been languishing for years. I lose more matches than I win with him. Quick question: I've been searching for these vids on youtube through the search engine, but I can't find them. Anyone know why they wouldn't show up?

I lose more matches than I win with him.Quick question: I've been searching for these vids on youtube through the search engine, but I can't find them. Anyone know why they wouldn't show up? I think it's because the videos are relatively new, and the site search index hasn't been updated to include those tags, etc. EDIT: YouTube say so here. Nice videos, though. The only suggestion I can make is getting the video out from the TV to your camera, if your camera has those ports... better than taking video of the screen. Nice music choices. You two are pretty close in skill, I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amayirot Akago Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I'm sick of waiting. I'm gonna pick up Smash Bros Melee ASAP and spend the next few months doing nothing but unlocking everything in it, and then do the whole thing over again once Smash Bros Brawl is released.

Broken Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Good stuff Jam. I commented on a few of your videos. I've been trying to capture some matches that my friends and I have been having, but I need to hook my vcr up to my capture card first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global-Trance Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 My wife had the brilliant idea to finally record some of our matches with our digital camera. This is my first time editing videos to present to an audience, so keep that in mind! <- Great match <- Great matchAny criticisms or comments would be greatly appreciated. Much respect here. Your videos here remind me of when I started getting decent at the game. Your technical prowess is great but you're playing too fast in the sense that you're mostly tapping into your technical ability but hardly having any mind games. Your opponents movements are far more reserved than you and was still able to keep up neck to neck most of the time. I say slow down a bit... your constant aggressive movement keeps you getting hit frequently. Other than that, I like what I see and I'd actually wouldn't mind having a match against you at some point. P.S. On the G&W video, I definitely went "OH SHIT" at the up-tilt flag to 9-Sign K.O. combo near the beginning. ::thumbs up:: Edit: That's your wife you're playing?! She plays smart. Much respect for her too. If she picks up your technical ability, then honestly I think you'd be pretty screwed. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Shadow Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Hung out with a friend that I haven't seen in months, and he and I have decided to get good at tournament level play together. Fuck yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastertoku Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Geez. I left on Tuesday for a retreat, and THIS is what I come back to? I was expecting some better updates... especially considering it was almost an entire week of them I missed. But I like Pit's song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any specific tips regarding mindgames and controlling the tempo of the match, because I feel that's one area that I need alot of help. And yeah, my wife is well on her way to being much better than me soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILLiterate Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 I'd say you move too much when you should be attacking, and at times (especally with IC) you're not going for a "safe" approach you just kinda run in headfirst You're great with IC once you get a grab in, you just need to get those grabs more often. Try sheild grabbing more, when your opponent sheilds WD into dsmash to grab, just try and get it going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neonlare Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Welp, I'm off to Crete for two weeks so I'll be missing these updates , what I'm gonna miss most though is being able to read you guys make silly posts about even sillier conspiracy theories .

Mastertoku Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Incidentally, I mainly just play (and consequently defeat) my friends and people I actually know, and have not yet been to a tournament or the like. Therefore, can somebody explain to me just what the hell a wavedash is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarZander Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I'm morel ike... What the heck? I was actually thinking just a couple of days ago, if Ash would be in it someday... And here he is! Kind of. I'm very curious to see if this will work smoothly or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arek the Absolute Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 All I can say about this update is....what the fuck? No, not as in "What they fuck were they thinking", but as a literal "What the fuck is this?" I am greatly confused. Learning how to use Ash is going to take time itself. I am avoiding using that character at all costs. Learning a strat with one character is tough as it is, but 3? Yeesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalcyonSpirit Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Duuuuuuuuuuude... Whoa. Being able to control three different characters in a single match is one thing, but controlling them properly is another matter entirely. This is going to ROCK!

Thylacine Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I always thought they would use Ash if they put a trainer in the games, not a non-name. Part of me was looking forward to it. At least this time the player can't just stick around with one and ignore the other forms like a Zelda (I mean Sheik) player could. Can't imagine that anyone would want to play as a Squirtle regularly. Actually, I can't imagine anyone would want to play as Squirtle at all. A Wartortle at least sounds cooler. This is the first one that I am genuinely curious about how alternate costumes are going to look. What will the Pokemon wear? Will they change colors like Mewtwo?

Strike911 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 ... dude, it's going to be rock paper scissors thing. Squirtle will probably be all speed and the weaker of the three. Ivysaur will be balanced between speed and attack power, Charizard will be all heavy powerful yet slow attacks. That's how it will be. I have forseen the truth in my mind's eye! I am a little sad that it's not Ash, but here's hoping for an alternate color scheme wear he's got an Ash look. I hope we can hear the trainer scream out commands.... awesome times.
