[AC] May Tactical Discussion/Questions/Help

[Kyle]

Zand, You'll be happy with it. There's virtually no effects/filters. I chose a new Mars Volta song. b/c they rock and so does new albums. It's encoding ATM. eek. UPDATE- Whore-able news, I am sooooo frusterated. Jahshaka keep messing up while encoding... I have more more idea to fixing this problem, so I will address this tonight. Stupid computers.

[Kyle]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Matt.

Moriyama- A hot topic of discussion, he plays VERY simple, ALL BASICS, whores out J.2HS and OHK, Wins the most. Not Flashy, but funny to watch as his success is there. (Dustloop favorite) In this video he is fighting the best Testy and HOS, questionably the Best in Japan as Kaqn & Shonen are phenomenal players.

Not that it really matters, but I'm fairly sure that Testament teamed with Kaqn was Yukinose, not Shonen.

Oh, and thanks for the B-Day wishes, Kyle. You should let me on the May team as a present.

[Kyle]

With what I've seen of your performance lately, You could be a vital part of the May team. >_< I am curious though, Which May's will be there... time will tell. Good catch on the Yukinose Testy, he did RAPE SBO 4 years back with Bridget though. VIDEO FINALLY DONE- Check the video thread. I am soo excited that all this video editing crap is done. I haven't written a match-up FAQ in like 2 months and HOS has been very impatient with my conscience. So, HOS Match-up within a week. =). It feels great to say that. BTW- I won a Brawl Tourney last Night. 40 entries and only 1 Donkey Kong. Jais's Snake was CRAZY as he was an undeniable crowd favorite, & John's Olimar had 7/9 kills in a FFA 3 stock. LOLZ. I LOVE Dustloop, seriously. Smashboards/Zaibatsu/Gamefaqs/SoulCali../.. their all so unorganized and spammed. I'll update the Map in a few days also.

[Dogysamich]

whoops. kinda forgot i said i would look for a song. XD glad you found one though.

Were there any Yoshi's involved :D?

[Dogysamich]

Smashboards is unorganized cause people are going apeshit over brawl, scrubs are popping up left and right, and nobody cares about the melee metagame anymore. :/

[Kyle]

whoops.

kinda forgot i said i would look for a song. XD

glad you found one though.

People are hate'N the music choice, lol. It's all good brother.

HOS Guide up! For you Matt, Thanks for your patience too.

HOS guide updates from Ryan-Bill soon guys.

[Dogysamich]

rofl; i've been avoiding brawl videos like the plague; but i guess it's a sign if they wind up in my dustloop. ... strange thing though; never thought i'd see a monkey in my dustloop. >.>

[Hsien_Jo]

Thanks for the heads up kyle. Ima check those out like on friday after I play brawl. I have a thing about watching gameplay for a game that I know, that I havent experimented with yet :p. Btw I finally get my laptop out the shop so I can prolly show you those Isuka May colors I talkeda bout a few weeks back

[Kryian]

Your Brawl videos do not contain enough Bowser. Good stuff regardless, though. Seems like May players like their Smash Bros. too... ...can't wait for FRXI. A Brawl tournament where everyone will suck 'cause it's so new, and GG madness. Gonna be amazing!

[Kyle]

OH SNAP, kryian @ FRXI this is May madness, I LOVE IT! BTW Updating HOS Guide ATM. @Matt- Did this HOS guide help you any?

[Kyle]

WAN- It's your job to rep May @ Texas Showdown. It's 1 week after Final Round and JUST GOT ANNOUNCED that SBO qualifiers are exclusively to Texas. You can also get in with an interview regardless of skill level. Interesting ehe?

[Frank The Tank]

@Matt- Did this HOS guide help you any?

Haven't fought TB since you posted it, but it does answer quite a few questions about the match that I had.

I've been working on the Ky guide today for a little while now, so it shouldn't be too long.

[Kyle]

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet- I would like to clairfy, I can do general punishes, Counter hit section, and the Combo section. I could even do the opening move and Ky gameplan section, It's the May's gameplan that I have yet to establish, you know, an organized offense/defense that limits Ky's options. Unless you are using FBSVD/FBHSVD his 6P will AA EVERYTHING else of May.

[Dogysamich]

final round? I'm probably gunna go to that, although im not gunna enter ANYTHING. >.> It blows

[Kyle]

Dogy- Y es dat?

Nhur- it is by an English painter named John

Waterhouse, called *Hylas and the Nymphs*, from 1896. He was a late Romantic painter who

enjoyed painting medieval and mythological subjects in an imitation "Renaissance" style.

Hylas was a youth beloved by Hercules. Hylas accompanied Hercules and Jason on the

voyage of the Argonauts to seek the Golden Fleece. One day on a mysterious island he

wandered off in search of water, but he was seduced by some beautiful (and rather horny)

water nymphs. He fell into the water and was never seen again. Hercules searched high

and low for him, abandoning the voyage for the Golden Fleece.

[Dogysamich]

cause they're not having melee, it'll make no sense for me to play brawl with only a weeks practice tops, and I am either inexperienced or completely blow at everything else i could possibly enter.

[Kyle]

This may make you feel better, my first Final round was a Guilty Gear Slash tourney... we only played it for a week, we thought it was a Reload tourney lol.

[Dogysamich]

im not too upset; it's the luck of the draw, really. If anything, i think i could work up on some CvS2 if it came to it. ... needless to say, im scared to death of going to try GGAC. XD

[Kyle]

Well, you better be playing casual and chillin with some of us. =)

I second that, even if you arent going for a tourney, casuals are always fun and a bunch of us May soldiers will be there, so all of us should do somethin fun together when we see each other . This is the way I see it if anything try out for a tourney just for some tourney experience. My first tourney was like a few weeks ago down in West Palm Florida and I hadn't played GGAC since like December sense my hand was recovering from Tendenitis, and we got there late, and I got like 3 causals before I had to go against The dude over the Jam threads in my first match . Needless to say it was a downing feeling, but the overal experience was fun and I got good match up experience that I was lacking and I was able to do better in casuals throughout the remainder of the night as I got a feel for GG again. For tourney rookies like me we have to go to as many as we can to get the beginners jitters out so we wont be as nervous later on.

Ill hopefully be at FR for a few games:

MeltyBlood (2 on 2 tag team with my bestest buddeh )

GGAC

Arcana Heart

SSBB

Neogeo Battle Collesium

KOF

Not gonna enter all of the tourneys but I definitely wanna get alot of casuals in.

And Man Kyle ive been playin Brawl for the last few days and its so addictive xD! I have The Yoshi of Heaven (Thats what ive called Blue Yoshi since SSB 1 and now he has angel wings so its true now xD) as my Wallpaper right now xD. I still play with my ol' school crew

Yoshi, Bowser, Peach, Falco, but the new guys I can't put down are Metaknight, Lucario (Taichi using Blue Fox/Doggie PsychoSoldier wtf thats awesome xD), and Sonic.

Interesting notes on that SSBB:

From My best friend AlwayzDizzy:

-When characters go Final Smash their Eyes are yellow and it scares him

-Go to Big Blue (I think its called ya know the Cap'n falcon stage where the cars are racing) with Sonic and give him bunny ears and have fun out running the cars :p

-With Snake if you throw a grenade in the air then catch it, your out of that weird grenade mode and have more options since your holding the grenade like a normal item.

-You set what songs you want for what stages by going to sound options (The one with the lil music note)

-Watch Marios standing animation, he'll do some guards up bouncing motion like hes been there before and knows where its at lmao.

From Hsien_Jo:

-WTF THE COMPUTER IS SMART NOW! :O on lvl 9 the computer will beat your aaaass, and I actually get aggrivated and complain with the T.V. once or twice lol.

-Let a lvl 9 computer get a final smash (more like dont get), like Pikachu or Sonic, they'll, friggin swarm all over you :8/: , Pikachu will do 200 dmg like......everytime.........I couldnt recover after he turned into a neutron star and went ape shit on me, and if your coming back from death Super Sonic will just hover over you till you start moving again

-Brawl gives you access to ol' classic games, like Zelda 1, Mario World, Star Fox 64

-Peach skips with her forward walking animation (so cute xD)

-Sonic does his ol' school waiting animations when you stand still long enough

-Marios down taunt is his death animation from Donkey Kong lol.

-Seeing Sheik crawl on the ground is the creepiest friggin thing Ive seen in maybe a year or so :8/:

-Instant guards and item catches are easier now?

-Why isn't Knuckles in this game :'<
