ATTN Otto.
You and Vish get your Victini tickets yet? go to "receive mystery gift" on the main menu. victini's an event pokemon only so you only have until Oct. 18. get on that **** yo
edit: also otto go in the fox advice thread and critique some of my videos vs MARS (Marth) if you feel like it. I realized a lot of things already (me and brookman talked about a lot of stuff; he's good vs marth cuz he plays with Cort a lot) but if you feel like offering any general advice i'd be all ears :3
make sure you watch the one where I 4-stock him too lol
uhhh regarding ssbm in general:
man, it's so trippy the way people over here play SSBM. just... in terms of mindset, it's really incredible. they play FD-only, so they only really worry about one stage when they learn a matchup - so people have REALLY specific tricks in given matchups. it's really inspiring. this guy over here, Maeve, who is probably otto's #3 fan (gotta give #1 and #2 to me and ciz - Maeve is RIDICULOUSLY technical lol and he always tells me how jealous he is of me that i'm homies with THE silent wolf) has a really amazing falco vs. marth game (for his overall skill level, which is below me) - he mixes up high lasers (that don't get powershielded), low lasers, and fake lasers (sound only) on purpose, because there are a lot of people over here who powershield as well as Diakonos (~90%...) it's trippy lol.
When I talked to Koto (Thunders) about going to Genesis 2, he said his biggest concern overseas wasn't nervousness, but platform stages. we played a bunch of friendlies on platform stages, and we had a pretty in-depth conversation about transitioning from FD to platform stages - he asked me stuff I never even really put that much thought into, like how to avoid using shine on a platform and accidentally falling through, how important do I think running shield drops are, in what matchups is it better to camp the platforms, and when is it better to dashdance on the ground; and so on and so forth.
idk. ssbm ***** lol. i only get to play once a week max now (pretty much) because of how far I am from most people. but i've become really good at programming/not procrastinating so when I get back to UW I'm bout to do all my homework hella fast and go to otto's like twice a week LOL
