no, i started playin melee in september 07 when people were already too good in the game. I plan on playing brawl from the start...
Just because you are starting brawl at the same time as everyone else doesn't mean everyone will be as bad as you. You are still going to be bad compared to the people who are better than you right now.

well i dunno. brawl isnt gonna be the exact same as melee just like melee wasn't the exact same as the 64 version. Theres gonna be new techniques, also different characters. noone has mastered a character yet. so yeah pretty much everyone is on the same level that has the basic idea of smash which i think i have.

^^^lol. good one. Did you know that we play other games, too? It's a pretty cool trick, and it helps you get better at all sorts of games.

It'll be a different game, but that doesn't mean that you'll be even with us. Especially if it's a slower game.

Tech skill doesn't cross over, but mindgames will, and mindgames > tech skill anyways. If I challenged M2K the day Brawl came out, chances are high that'd he still kick my ***, and hard.

What about Tony Boney? (old *** Michigan smasher joke for those who still remember Tony)
Hey he taught me how to play smash for real XD.

err.. Everyone's probably on the same level for their first hour of trying to play the game. Better players tend to have better fundamentals, especially since the games are so similar. Just saying.

Soul Calibur II to III.
Tennis to racquetball.
all sorts of similar thangs.

Someone's that put a bit more commitment into something, even just because its very similar.... just usually.. not gonna say it's fact, but in my experience tends to start off on a higher level, just because they're already more comfortable with the process of getting better... and not worrying about a change leveling the playing field...


and... psh.. tech skill > mindgames.

SD? Bowyer? Same person?

Tony Boney? Ankoku? Same person?

FYI? Anther? Same person?

This is all too confusing for someone with as feeble an intellect as me to follow.

Tony Boney =/= Ankoku

Tony Boney = Tony Thorpe (or however he spells his name).
Napoleon Dynamite looking kid who mained Roy.

FYI, Anther.
I wouldn't call Ankoku Tony Boney XD... that'd be weird... Plus Ankoku started playing after I did >=P.
And I'm thought his last name was Papciak... not Thorpe...

that's like the most onesided matchup i could possibly be in.

you're only 10, and you're tech is good, but don't talk **** to me as i'm 10x better then you. :laugh:


can't make it to GR. : ( sadness.
i can recall that after that match you wanted me to face you in a fox ditto and i still beat you :)

Anyone remember when lain challenged me to a $5 MM, and when I played about 5 friendlies with him and embarrassed his falco AND peach, he didn't want to MM me anymore, and he said his main was REALLY fox.



@Kail; Remember when we were at gregorrob's house and I called you lain by accident because I was bitter that I was losing? Good times.

And yes, I still hate you for calling me a noob.

Prick.
I didn't call you a noob. I called you lain.


For those who weren't there when this happened: Kail and I were playing friendlies, and we were trying to mess each other up by trash talking each other, and I accidently called him lain once, so he freaks out and goes "OMG WTF IM NOT LAIN" so with my endless wit I said without missing a beat "well you were playing like garbage so I thought you were for a second".
Kail then set the controller down, laughing, and walked away. He came back a second later, picked up the controller and continued to beat me.

Evidently you didn't get my joke, you called me lain, and I said you called me a noob meaning lain is a noob so calling me lain is like calling me a noob. I changed it up, but evidently you are as witty to get my joke.

That was hilarious though. I called you a dumb *** though.

We need to play again because that was some of the best smash evah.

Attention anyone who's going to Sunday's UMB:

Would anyone be willing to carpool? I live in Chesterfield, which is unfortunately pretty far away from AA. I have gas money..... PM me and we can try to work something out.
