    Amazing job man, you definitely deserve this. Also friendly reminder that keeping yourself humble doesn't have to include calling yourself "bad", if anything it improves your performance if you don't pass such harsh judgement on yourself for your mistakes :)) ❤❤

      All people who play heavies self deprecate in real life as well. Been playing since I was 10 and it’s true.

      Some people just use this as a way to get by, sometimes it's not as toxic as you think to be so self deprecating, for us it doesn't improve our performance when we have confidence it just tears us down even more when we inevitably get humbled because of it. Some people just can't control their confidence when they do have it and become cocky so I just always stay extremely humble as to not be an asshole lol

    I love hearing you getting angry at yourself for getting caught in your bad habits and reminding yourself to stop. Shows even top players deal with this kind of crap.

    I was going to comment that I have no idea how you stand that sound playing every time someone follows, but it turns out that you couldn't stand it lol

    I love these videos. Melee is so sick. It’s not even really nostalgia driven, it’s just such a sick game and that’s why it’s relevant today

    I love how much Akir just wants to play really good melee and literally gets upset when his opponent doesn't play well. It's quite charming.

    The only human not surprised by this. This is a bad match up the same way falcon sheik is but it’s so f’ing volatile it doesn’t matter. Both grabs kill. Love this match up god I’m so glad to of found a legit excuse to play dk…for sheik dittos…

    out of the characters that could actually punish sheiks up b... it would be a DK lol nice win

    you're dope man but tbh I couldn't watch your stuff much just bc of the sound that plays when someone follows/subs. It is going off literally every 5-10 seconds all vid. Which is nice bc youre getting support,.. but you know

    • @evanpowers1537
      @evanpowers1537 Рік тому +2

      ok you turned off alerts 3 min in lol good call

      @AkirDK  Рік тому +6

      Yeah I apologize, I averaged a much lower viewer count/follower rate prior to this stream and the Hungrybox set blew me up and I was not prepared at all LOL. It's off permanently now and replaced with just my sub notifications
      It was god awful to play through in my Aklo set, I react to spacie side-b via the audio cue and I functionally didn't have sound for a majority of the set LMAO

      Honestly I consider the incessant monkey sounds to be part of the beauty of this run. It’s like, yeah this channel is in the process of blowing up because DK is getting into top 8 and taking names!

    Yeah sheik fall speed is higher than people think, punishes especially if you have the range of someone like dk are pretty decent

    DKs nair seems like it is just never the right option. Every time you used it, it didn’t end up in your favor except for in the final game. Maybe it’s just bad in this matchup or I’m not giving it enough credit, but I don’t understand when it makes sense to use nair over anything else.

    • @AkirDK
      @AkirDK  Рік тому +3

      Nair isn't great but it gets better once your opponent gets into knockdown percent (~50ish give or take depending on the matchup). Less because of how good nair is but more importantly because you need to keep your opponents honest with front-facing approaches from time to time so that they can't read when you're approaching/not approaching super easily, so even though the risk-reward on it isn't great it's something that becomes a bit better and necessary to do when you anticipate that your opponent isn't going to respect it

      @@AkirDK the respect front facing options part makes a ton of sense. If only it hit like it does in PM 😭
