You have a stereotypically n00bish response to the accusation that you arent good at smash
I am good at smash, I'm just not great. I know I'm not as good at it as you lot and have said so repeatedly but the instant I try to explain that I have have beaten real people who are skilled at the game, if not in your way, you assume I'm taking offense at being called bad at the game. I am doing no such thing because, compared to this community, I am.
which is to say "I've beaten people who were really good" without actually citing examples of WHO those people were
You wouldn't know them. They were obsessive smashers when the game was new and knew exactly what they what they were doing but they were never tournament players. Minus the lack of wavedashing, shine comboing and their love of items, it looked like they were pretty much the same as any other high level Fox or Falco to me so I'm pretty sure they could have been tournament players if they wanted to but they didn't.
and further not understanding that even if you beat the best player in the world in a free for all items on lightning melee match it holds no weight to the current discussions because those who play on SWF play in a very specific fashion.
Yes, it was with items on but that was at their insistance not mine. I did convince them to play 4 sock, 1 on 1, regular vs matches with a time limit of 8 minutes on FD and other tounament stages though.
In regards to opposing tournament play, these guys were even worse than me. I refuse to abuse the system with wavedashing and was oposed to itemless play at first but now agree it's fairer and I never had a problem with the stage restrictions. They, on the other hand, outright laugh at the idea of Fox mirrors on FD, refuse to play itemless and, when I explained that stages with walk off edges were banned because of chain grabbing, told me Ice Climbers should be banned instead. Hell, they even play on timed vs instead of stocks.
These are skilled players and I would hve liked to play them under proper tournament rules but that was not an option available to me. Instead I simply refused to use the items at my disposal, so I atleast fought them itemless, if not the other way around.
Once again to reiterate what Bunbun said, if you want to post questions on how to get better thats fine
And have someone tell me how to play? No thanks.
but if you dont and continue to insist on playing the way you want, while that's fine, you have no real reason to be posting here as you'll only be a detriment to conversations.
One day I'll take on you lot but I'll do it my way and I'll do it when I'm good. When that happens, we shall see which style of Kirby prevails but until then I guess you're right. We are through.
I'd like to say I've enjoyed my time here but it simply isn't true so instead I shall leave you with this image:
