New Year's Smasholutions

[Afro Smash]

Forgive the terrible title, but what are your smash specific new years resolution?

Mine:

• Master D Throw Roll
• Convert to GC Controller
• Iron out input errors with more offline practice
• Get top 32 at Beast VI
• Not cry when Samus doesn't get buffed in February

And I believe our collective goal should be to break the perception that Samus is bottom 5, as our once faithful recently stated:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[Metallinatus]

Beat Nairo and ZeRo at Winner's and Grand's Finals on EVO using Samus
Am I dreaming too low?

 

[Xeze]

- Win a tournament here in my country (using Mario and Samus)
- Attend a tournament in Spain or another european country (no Beast VI this year though)
- Keep being Portugal's best Mario and best Samus.
- #free3stock

and get Samus outta bottom 5 (in my mind she already is out).

 

[DungeonMaster]

Produce mammoth how to combo video pushing metagame forward. (I'll succeed here, not much of a resolution).
Improve all the basic and advanced tech skill I've been neglecting for lab work on combos.
Somehow find time to go to a tournament.
Achieve character mastery.
Pick up a secondary (spend some real time on it, not just basics, likely megaman but waiting for end of DLC).

Afro Smash Where's that community Samus highlights video in your list?

 

[Xygonn]

Not drop Samus completely when Bayonetta is available.

[Tonetta]

Make more content

 

[bluesm0ke]

[cremebrulee]

Learn more characters

 

[Afro Smash]

Oh yeah I'm also gonna test out ledge camping more in tournaments, particularly in MUs where our neutral is trash

 

[Hark17ball]

Iron out my misinputs (biggest killer here)
Spend actual time in the lab. (I did this for fox...practicing off stage gimps/kills and I'm very confident in keeping him off now)

There's gonna be so much crap about Samus now because of Esam's tweet.
My resolutions are to get good at Samus' throw combos and keep a secondary for more than a week (looking into Link now, even though he covers none of our MUs... Still fun though.)


I think a lot of the characters considered "bad" have things going for them, just like Samus, so people who know them will think they aren't bottom ten... But the thing is a character could be pretty reasonable competitively like Samus and still potentially be bottom 10 because there are a lot of good characters. Bottom 5 is ridiculous and Esam is obviously salty/johning something (because his



All have multiple MUs on the same level of awfulness as Samus' two awful MUs, Pika and MK. Link might wreck a lot of characters, and then has so many horrible MUs that make Samus' across the board look good. There isn't room in bottom 5 for Samus.
