Water Mage Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Good game Zerker! I gotta admit, Cloud's Finishing Touch got me more times than I like to admit, I forgot that Cloud has an insta-kill move of sorts. I gotta learn how to deal with Limit Break, I thought it would be easy to predict but I was mistaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiance Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) This match was something. A word of advice I would say is to NEVER use Elwind on stage, as you will be left open. Also, I know Robin isn't the fastest character, but the side stepping needs to be used wisely. Also, charging smash attacks that won't hit is not a good idea and it should be a finishing blow instead of low percent. Try using Robins tilts and Neutral air. I played Robin before so if you need some tips, I can help you out. I don't mean to sound blunt, it is not my intention. Just some advice to ensure you can do the best you can Water mage :). Zerker's cloud is pretty good and it was a good match. Look forward to playing with you both. Edited January 19, 2016 by Radiance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintessence Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Some minor comment here. I was playing on 3DS For Glory these days and I played against a really good Robin that had an excellent air combat. Robin has really good front air, up air and its back air despite being kind of awkward it is good. Elfire and aerial combat is pretty deadly at high porcentages, and imo Robin is better at aerial combat than ground one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I watched the latest match and afterwards I was like, "Did he ever watched Shadow's vids when he played Robin?" Shadow? Their is some tech that can be learned, but knowing neutral first is better to learn some combo pontential. Such as Down throw to jab low percent or arch thunder to up air, forward air, or back air for the kill. I use those when I played Robin. B reversing can be a good mix up. I wish they buffed Robin's grab, it's so shit just like Ganons. Short hopping arch fire reduces end lag as well.

Quintessence Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Yeah I've nabbed some kills with down throw and Up air combo. Edit: also, the fact that I'm terrible at Smash U and better at Smash 3DS, lol. Edited January 19, 2016 by Quintessence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit it was poor performance, mostly because after he used Finishing Touch for the first time I got nervous and started makkng mistakes, such as charging smash attacks without meaning too and abusing Elwind. I lost my cool and paid the price for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Glad you took that well, can use that as an excellent side note here. What makes me happy is seeing people having fun and improving, not everyone is gonna be the same level, but if you wish to learn, ask what you can improve on, and I hope people who are the more skillful of us, will do so with tact. I'd hate to scare people away. Really glad of the group I have here, you're all awesome. Edited January 19, 2016 by Jedi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Yeah, I like playing against people at a level similar to mine, otherwise I get depressed when people like PKL crush me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I've always used that "Levels beyond me" kinda deal as good experience, PKL is one of the nicest guys you can ask about smash stuff, sure he can be blunt at times, but when it comes to "what you need to work on". I'll always go to him, and hey we all have bad habits. I understand also, this isn't everyones mentality.

Quintessence Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Indeed, it's pretty nice to acknowledge our own weaknesses/bad habits and transmutting them into a better play. Btw Jed, have you considered running another tournament by the time Corrin is launched by having the contenders use FE chars? Or well, not exactly by the time Corrin is out but maybe by the end of February. Edit: we have plenty of FE chars Edited January 19, 2016 by Quintessence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) A loss is a lesson to me. Might want to challenge this PKL. I can give some advice about characters I know about and will be willing to play with those who want help or just have fun. I like playing with people on the serenes. For glory makes me cringe, people just do weird stuff. Edited January 19, 2016 by Radiance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: we have plenty of FE chars I'm considering running another one when Corrin and Bayo hit, but I dno if I wanna limit characters like that. I also want to make these a regular thing, the tourneys A loss is a lesson to me. Might want to challenge this PKL.

PKL goes by S@nt in the smash community, he's #1 in Puerto Rico and made it at least out of pools of Genesis 3 recently, shame about his stacked bracket. He's one of the best Toon Links I've seen.

Quintessence Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Yay then I can practice Bayo a lot and get used to her! I hope I do ok. Like, I'm a big fan of Shulk and I'm terrible with him. Better on Xenoblade than in Smash lawl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 That's logical. Gonna pick up Corrin once he/she comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solrocknroll Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 how could anyone not be readily awaiting our goddess bayonetta tbh the only third party better is phoenix wright of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Because I'm not excited for her? No offense but I dont see an excitement out of me from Bayo. Cool she is added but not excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarinets Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Wait a second, Bayonetta is third party? Hmm, I thought Nintendo bought the rights to her. Also the only third-party character left that I really want is Bomberman. Anyways, I would've joined this tournament if I had known it existed when it started, even if I'm not very good at the game. It would've at least been good for getting better~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bam: Sonic, Mega Man, Pac-Man, Bayonetta, Cloud, Phoenix Wright, Jibanyan, and Yu Narukami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
