G&W is good. Not great, and not bad.

I would like to play but I got dragged to the pool instead.

Ive been home.

Yeah, definitely

Now the pass has to have a percent sign.

I just mash everything.

Its really weird, and basically bad. There were like really brief parts that seemed pretty okay and I can accept certain things as like a loosely based show or holes in the canon, but it ends up being stupid.

We got the funnel cake making pitcher from Aldi and it was not bad.

Thats cool. Took me a while to notice that all of the result stuff is now generated, but thats to be expected. It saves time, but some of the themes people used to come up with were fun; Im sure there are still some custom ones.

Once my daughter is done with Switch Sports, maybe can do some matches

You improved a good bit just from yesterday. There are a few things you can fix or implement pretty quickly.

You dont upB enough. You could have ended some Falcon combos by doing that instead of some other option like airdodge. Good OOS option, can combo, and you get to act afterwards.

You started using down smash more so that was really good. You still probably use up smash too much, but overall you have the idea down where you can threaten with smashes in closer range.

You tend to use neutralB too long. There are times where it works out, like they roll into the pan and bounce around, but against me it did basically nothing and left you open on the back side. Some characters can even just go right through it with relative ease so remember that. I dont think either of DK or Yoshi really qualify for that; I know Marth can nair the meat. DK can probably armor through it to an extent and Yoshi can double jump armor into a move maybe.

Closed?!?! Lol GGs

That was pretty good with Yoshi. Too many errant downBs though for lots of damage early on.

Lol Duck Hunt ditto it was gross

Peach and Daisy have a lot of KO options. Fair and bair are good, forward and up smash work well. You can always do a pretty legit combo to carry off stage or get a nice gimp KO on bad recoveries. Uair, nair, and dash attack work at higher percents.

thank you. i saw your post but didnt reply until now, tried implementing some of those things at the end. i need all the advice i can get. of 50 games i won once lol. my g&w was doing a lot better at school.

I think the average G&W play is settled at being kind of campy and spammy with the right moves. If you want to be better, you then have to develop the smart tactics and learn the character a lot more. But it generally starts out as something I would call dumb. Down smash into follow ups, upB a lot for safety and aerial combos, Dair depends on how the opponent handles it but can be solid, Bair is nice for spacing and poking, tilts are more okay but not a big deal, and neutralB is just pure ledgetrap but can be good otherwise.

Pojr, your G&W has to be dumber. Spam the smashes and the upB. Bacon all day at ledge until you force an option. Nair less.

Youre done for the semester, pojr?

Ill play

Hey today

i spent 8 minutes playing an in-game-time 3 mins 11s game against a zss because she was so laggy the game kept freezing for extended periods of time

Thats so hardcore. I just try to SD on those but even that can be a chore.

Bump

My daughter is going nuts with Switch Sports.

Im so hungry that I cannot stand it anymore

GGs, maybe later

Okay boi

5DN43/69

What about now?

GGs

Good enough stopping point, some lag spikes were going on but it was smooth at the start for most of it

One more

Food time!

GGs, might be it for me but we will see

That last hit reverse upB shit was nuts

*shrug*

Every now and then

I could do with more grab combos but I cant land grabs online so why bother

Okay

M0C0J/69

Sorry, I got sidetracked by something for work but Im all done now.

Who wants to do stuff?

Who here loves ant?

Whats up?

Melee Summit is weird with the Survivor theme and the council stuff. I dont like it.

Lost the bet, it was 20 minutes or so

I bet if I post here then somebody will wake up from their nap in about 10 minutes

GGs, lag shows up hard and Im out

I still cannot tech any of the forward throws so its basically a free combo. Eww, thats poop.

Its poop.

The entire game is poop. I cant tech almost anything.

I can try

I have tried out new tech with a few characters. Definitely useful but may not matter much for lower levels of play. Its not too hard to do though so maybe its going to see quite a bit of use overall.

2 posts to go

Think I can do another hour until everyone gets back

I like when Hannibal plays Isabelle.

what did i do???

You know what you did

I feel like I have to play Banjo that way, its just how I see him and his strengths. Its basically weave in and out with eggs until one hit confirms into bigger damage. Hes just a big weird combo of multiple character styles and it works well to wall people out since he is not bad up close but not great either.

There are plenty of other characters where I can go in a lot more. I like being able to do both, pure camp with like no combos is dull to me (hated Brawl for the slowness and lack of combos) and all rushdown is kind of exciting but being on the cusp of pure button mashing is also dull.
