Haha pwn, you don't have to tell Sax that. He's real good with tires. One of the best i've seen imo. Could work on his punishes with glide tossing though.

He'll have vids vs Hrnut and redhalberd up. As well as vs another MK, Radix. I think the Ones vs hrnut and radix really showcase his stuff wellI dunno... if he's thinking about choosing Snake.... 0.o Sax do you have any vids up? I'd like to see your tire game!
LOL Dyno those were awesome matches. I really like those pivot grabs that you got off in the first match, why did you choose RBC against Sebrik 2nd round? That stage is bad news vs MK :/
Dude, I'm sorry, but once you experience playing a mk of Redhalberd's Caliber, you'll understand what I'm talking about. Wario can win, but it's either by timeout, or playing 100% perfectly.Try tires, people. They're really GREAT tools for zoning and when I play against MK, having tires definitely makes me feel like I have more options in the matchup. Tires are great for zoning, and zoning is the issue here. Easy peasy.
I'll post the vids of me vs HR and me getting ***** by redhalberd. and Honestly for my mm with halberd, if you can offer ANY advice of where any openings where, I'd love that. Even with tires, he would just not fall for any of the gimmicks or get hit with the tires, he'd get rid of them with shield or tornado. And please don't say punish him while he is nadoing. He spaces it wayyyyyyy to perfectly. Honestly.I dunno... if he's thinking about choosing Snake.... 0.o Sax do you have any vids up? I'd like to see your tire game!

RadiX ones weren't saved :/He'll have vids vs Hrnut and redhalberd up. As well as vs another MK, Radix. I think the Ones vs hrnut and radix really showcase his stuff well
Yeah definitly! I think I kind of took him by surprise lol. And again, I still say I should have won the 2nd game too. If he had like 10 more % my fart would have killed him. But it's all good.I want to see the vid against HRnut. I wanna see you beat his Lucario with two stocks left . Wario vs MK is difficult, but it's hard to say how big the disadvantage is for Wario.
Thank you. This was the point I was trying to make.But tires won't really give mk much pressure like most projectiles would, so it doesn't really persuade him to approach.
That, and they take far too long to make, and put you in a potentially bad situation trying to get them out
I'm actually gonna have to agree with this one. Mk just is IMPOSSIBLE to zone in on. The only chance wario has that is viable is time out. He won't win any other way at the highest levels of play AKA when the mk is camping wario's balls off lol. He just won't. That's my opinion for as of now.
And thank you for the complement. Good sheee to you though, you were ****,.
And Yeah, It's really not as easy as it seems. I feel like I could've done better though. I just need MU exp with more characters and I think Ill be placing better. I might pick up another character for MK too, or just ditto. Not sure yet. If i were to choose NOT to ditto, would snake be most viable?
Tires are pretty much useless against MK tbh. I play Wario so I actually know how they work. When he pulls out tires I just camp on the ground (normally I don't really camp I just space in the air) until they hit my shield and dissapear. They'll work against MKs who don't know specifically how to fight against him but I dont think they can really force anything to happen in this matchup.Try tires, people.

Even if this is true, you'll NEVER get that many chances to predict MK to actually do sometime that's greatly beneficial.Smash is designed so that perfect defensive spacing is impossible (with exceptions... and those exceptions are banned as stalling). Any kind of spacing is punishable through prediction using various means. Wario is built on that premise since his punishments are insanely good.
I disagree completely. MK's Uair completely frametraps every approach wario has. Most MKs just dont space/react well.Smash is designed so that perfect defensive spacing is impossible (with exceptions... and those exceptions are banned as stalling).

Agreed completely.Even if this is true, you'll NEVER get that many chances to predict MK to actually do sometime that's greatly beneficial.
But seriously, if the mk has good reaction time, he'll be able to tell what you're doing since wario can't approach mk well.
Which I've been meaning to ask.I disagree completely. MK's Uair completely frametraps every approach wario has. Most MKs just dont space/react well.
Agreed completely.
I dont usually camp Wario, but when I do, nobody gets in. Ever.
I find it funny how most MKs when they face wario try to wall him out while on the ground. Would you say mk is better at walling while in the air?Well I guess I probably camp but I guess I dont feel like I'm camping because I'm camping in the air. I wouldn't describe it as smart aggro though I occasionally go for something ballzy pressure wise.
Makes sense. Thanks for that.It's up to what the indivdual player prefers really. Uair and Dair come out really fast so I prefer to use those to zone him, whereas on the ground he has to use reverse grabs, nado, fair and Utilt which aren't as reliable. But you have to be confident that you can react to Warios approaches otherwise it's better to stay on the ground and just run away and use nado. I get bored if I try playing that way so I don't lol.

Who do you play against that uses tires? You may want to check out the tire section in the AT thread to get a better understanding of em. If you were camping your shield, why would I throw the tire directly at you? I know they disappear on shields, what they doo doo (hehe) is bounce in place. When a tire is bouncing in place, it retains it's hitbox for one hit per character. If you are in your shield camping, all I have to do is bounce the tire next to you and Nair, pushing you into the tire while I have frame advantage.Tires are pretty much useless against MK tbh.

Wario gets outzoned WAAAAY too hard it's pretty ridiculous. Even if you react perfectly with airdodges to his attacks doesn't mean you can even capitalize. You could spend 2 minutes dodging every attack and it still wouldn't mean you had a single opportunity to get in...
edit:
Yeah Sax pretty much sums it up. I don't even really camp in the matchup I just space really well to avoid getting punished. As long as MK stays ahead and is patient Wario will eventually come in and get punished.
Youu're theory crafting. I'm obviously not JUST shieldcamping. I react safely and keep the optimum distance and position from Wario when he has a tire in hand. If he throws a tire I'll just react with my shield and if he doesn't I won't shield. Also, I avoid being under him so that he's not able to get frame advantage from hitting my shield anyway. Against anyone decent at the matchup and good against tires they're just an annoyance, they don't get anything started.

Just one of the many tire tactics in development (and it is legit).
I said this to you months ago haha.After this tourney I'm pretty convinced that Wario vs MK is unwinnable if MK camps. I don't even really camp in the matchup but whenever I watched/played the matchup with Wario I definitely don't feel like I had any options. Gonna teach Lies Snake for the matchup. In other news, it was great meeting you Sax and you're definnitely really underrated. I think Wario just isn't that good of a character now. Placing with him seems insanely difficult.
We are all in Florida. Come to CEO!!! He'll be there. LolHaha theory crafting is so laaaame I wanna play you dude! Where do uou live RedHalberd? If I ever happen to drop by that state we should totally smash.
While I agree that MK can be deadly with tires, his moveset really just doesn't mesh as well imo and he also has waaaay slower air speed. Wario has really good mixups with tire throws and bite, plus a lot longer range that he can punish from with deadlier moves than MK has (Uair, Fart, Nair for combos).
I'm not saying Wario is unbeatable with tires, but they DO help a lot in the matchup and they are a lot better than people realize. I would safely say that I would rather have a tire than not have a tire against MK.
Wario has to play patiently, accurately, and precisely against a lot of different characters with different habits from player to player. Further more, with Florida being as good as it is, auto-piloting gets punished heavily, unless you're a consistent top placer. It's very mentally draining as a Meta Knight main, so I can only imagine how much mental strain must be on Solo/Lies!/Sax.Hey halberd you really think its hard to place with wario? I would think it would be rather easy
Well I know solo prefers fighting mk then most characters like me but idk about saxWario has to play patiently, accurately, and precisely against a lot of different characters with different habits from player to player.

I'd rather fight MK too. Most MKs are pretty bad.Well I know solo prefers fighting mk then most characters like me but idk about sax
This is really true. When My set against HR is up, watch how I played his lucario. It may look like i was aggressive (Maybe haha), but I was actually just waiting until he made a move, and then i would punish accordingly. Though I'll admit I was spacing pretty perfectly too, well maybe not perfectly, but I think to be extremely well (just going of of what Esam told me). that has alot to do with it too, wario's HAVE to make sure they space perfectly at higher levels of play.

Quoted for truth.I'd rather fight MK too. Most MKs are pretty bad.
Oh yeah I know, I asked him and he said he did.He said he sand bagged the lucario match sax which it looked like. But xdeath not everyone knows the ditto xD
/interested...I'm picking up another character who I actually enjoy using vs. MK more than using MK (right now anyway). Usually the MK ditto is my favorite match-up, though.
I'm kinda ranked 2nd in the state I'd figure you'd know who I am lol.Haha theory crafting is so laaaame I wanna play you dude! Where do uou live RedHalberd? If I ever happen to drop by that state we should totally smash.
I agree it's better to have a tire than not have a tire, because having a tire means MK can't just play however he feels like. MK can literally do whatever he feels like as long as he spaces well when Wario doesn't have tires, but he has to fight on the ground when you have a tire. But that's literally just until you throw the tire and then you lose your advantage.I'm not saying Wario is unbeatable with tires, but they DO help a lot in the matchup and they are a lot better than people realize. I would safely say that I would rather have a tire than not have a tire against MK.
Na I think it's hard as hell. So many gay matchups, half because of grab release, half because of zoning. Most of these characters outcamp you and are pretty common as well.. Snake, Yoshi, Falcon, DK, Sheik, Peach, Marth, Luigi. He only beats these characters if you camp as hard as humanly possible and land farts. Then most regular top tiers already have matchup advantages over Wario. Definitely like a worse version of Snake as far as matchup spread.Hey halberd you really think its hard to place with wario? I would think it would be rather easy
Also Wario is the most mentally draining character in the game. It's fun for a while but it gets really frustrating after a short time. The only thing I disagree with you about is FL being a good region LOL.Wario has to play patiently, accurately, and precisely against a lot of different characters with different habits from player to player.
