but if you're at too high % to either tech or mash out, then just Don't Get Hit™

That's some real Bayonetta sounding bullshit right there.

you're not fighting bayonetta, though, so it's legitimate advice even if it sounds dismissive

if DK is able to grab you at all as samus, it could mean that you're not zoning him out hard enough, but it's hard to know for sure without a vod

It’s a quote from an OG 64/Melee GOAT. Bayo shills just wax lyrical about optimal SDI.

Went back to play Smash 4 for a little bit and the game is so slow compared to Ultimate like holy shit, the difference is night and day.

It's astonishing how much better and fluid Ultimate is.

it offers basically nothing that the others don't already have, unless you like smash tour Smash Run i guess

Fixed

That mode should have certainly stayed.
Break The Targets and Home Run mode need to find their way back in too.

I just need to give up on trying to get into Elite smash.
I've been as high as 3.6 million GSP as Dark Samus and not gotten in and in all this time I have not enjoy a single matchmaking game. Even in cases where I've 3 stocked people I still wanted to put my Switch in the microwave afterward. There has to be a better way than this.

i'd just join lounges if you want to enjoy games, quickplay is a fucking joke

Little Mac at the campus fucked me up again. This is a bit embarrassing. Smash 4 air dodges were AIDS for sure but at the same time I miss being able to land as Samus

sure, i can play around 5ish

Sounds good, ping me on discord when you're good to go

The F-Zero soundtrack goes hard, especially those songs from the N64 game.

I always put Devil’s Call In Your Heart when I play the F-Zero stages. It’s fucking intense. I still can’t believe this was in a Nintendo game.

so CMD made an alt and notified me in this thread, but i can't see the post because of the verification thing

They've only let one of my posts through, the one in the Metroid Prime Thread

Well I'm doing more to zone people out and now a friend of mine who I practice with is accusing me of being too campy. Like am I doing it wrong or....

depends on if you're winning or losing

obviously if you're winning and he's calling you campy, then you're 100% doing it right (though you may run the risk of pissing off your friends which is always the unfortunate part of defensive play in friendlies)

if you're still losing, then whatever it is you're doing wrong is going to depend on how your opponent is beating you

if your opponent isn't having a hard time getting in on you, then you need to work on controlling space more

lately samus players have been beating my ass by camping under platforms and doing shorthop fairs or uairs whenever i try to approach, it's quite annoying but also pretty effective and i'm actually struggling with beating that strategy

He won most of out rounds but not by much. We we're pretty even for the most part especially compared to the last time we played. He's been using Ike who just oblithertates me if I try to directly challenge him in air (where he is like 99.999% of the time) so I've been trying to keep my distance to charge and fire missiles as he approaches and hopefully catch him with well timed F-Airs.

4.05 million GSP with simon

a completely meaningless number that, nonetheless, still makes me feel pretty happy

roy too but i'm not as good with him

never mind, i'm getting good with roy too

he's so fucking fun in this game
