  • Coney watches Plup versus PrinceAbu at Evo, one of the most weirdest Melee sets that Plup showed dominance in game 1. But Jigglypuff shenanigans occur the following game that makes it one to remember. Gosh, Melee is WEIRD.

    Growing up in the midwest melee scene was great, everyone was so supportive and friendly. I can't recall a bad experience besides this one dude who would look down at people's controllers to tech chase them, which I just found weird.

      My favorite thing to do to those people is to put my controller behind my back after a stock and play with my controller behind me for the rest of the game. It tends to throw those people off more than you.

    On the handshake thing I went to my first melee, regional I guess, it was my first tournament. This was july of 2021. One of the top seeds was playing me in pools and before our game I sat down and tried to fist bump him. The guy said "hold on" and left me hanging. He 100% saw me. So I stood my ground for like a solid 30 seconds. Eventually I gave up. Then when he was finally ready like 5 minutes later. Ole mini wizzrobe over here tries to fist bump me. I looked at him and said "nah covid... im ready." The confusion on his face was worth it. I swapped from my main to ganon with the goal of up tiliting this try hard fox. And I did. 3 times. The last one was an accident. I said out loud "holy shit that one was an accident." I still lost 2-0 but not gonna lie It felt good BMing this guy who went on to get like 6th or something out of 60 players. But I did learn a valuable lesson there are multiple ways to BM a person and it only feels good if you do it in retaliation.

    @ramblincapuchin9075 2 роки тому +5

    Autopilot is good when you have the fundamentals of neutral down. It just so happens that in a game like smash, that's how most people approach optimal strategy
    80% of my matches, I win because people rote themselves into punishable situations. Because they have no attention for subtlety, it makes their playstyle easy to exploit
    So in the end you think that you've got dominant strategy down, but really it's all habit. I think that's the difference in playing the game and simply trying your hand. The former is a scenario where you are aware of the BS, but you're also self aware enough to break from patterns that would trip you up if you let it

    Melee is better than brawl change my mind. Melee never had to have a another version to make it BETTER than a game before it. Brawl players have no skill in order to play the game. There is no hitstun so that means no combos. Which means no skill. All you had to do in brawl is pick op custom moves or spam villager sapling trip. Brawl was an inferior game to melee. Change my mind.
