Lol, I seriously suck at SSBM. XD

Oh sweet, I just unlocked Marth. >D

 

A shorter sword too, and you know what that means....sub-par reach.

 

Fashion > Long Swords.

 

actually Roy's is longer...
but Marth is technically better...

 

If you wanna argue aesthetics then ROY HAS NOTHING ON CAPTAIN FALCON. SHOW YOUR MOVES!

(Captain Falcon > Roy still holds true in the tier o_o)

 

Whatevs.

Jigglypuff owns all, and you know it.

 

... Sometimes. Most of the flare comes from rubbing it in your opponent's face that they got their *** handed to them by a pink spherical pokemon that lacks a neck, knees and elbows. <.<

 

Touche. The speed makes the difference as well as his knock back, my bad.

 

Yeah, Roy's slightly longer reach does *not* make up for his technical drawbacks. Mediocre knockback (hardly any until higher percentages) and as a fastfaller, he lacks the combo-ability that Marth possesses. Unlike Marth, who sports an insanely murderous aerial game, Roy has to rely on his down-tilt for any decent knockback at lower percentages and well-timed/well-placed forward smashes for KOs.

I personally like Roy and think he's an awesome character, but when you take apart his moveset and game mechanic, he can't hold a candle to Marth.

 

Geez >:/ *grabs control* lemme teach you.





*beats the game*



and thats how you play. NoW lets play VS Mode.

 

Ness rapes all your asses.

 

PK Thunder!

 

Everytime someone brings up Ness I keep remembering my friend Greg who plays a pretty good one. Ness' ugly FAir is one of the most annoying things ever. Bat goes without question, but 2x FAirs in the face is not fun. -.-;

And for the hell of it, I shall revive an old vid of me facing his Ness back in May '07.

My Falcon blows, so don't any of you dare laugh.

 

I don't know how to embed Youtube videos.




Seriously I don't.

 

Apparently, those are my 3rd and 2nd worst characters in the game (rite before G&W) How I no...I've beaten the last event with everybody under 2 and half minutes except G&W...

Anyways, I find SSBM really easy. But I'm seriously losing my skill cuz my friends aren't much of a challenge (50-0 record FTW) and I keep on beating Event 51 with ease. There's nothing much I can do on that game...

My only hope for the SSB series is wait for brawl!

Suggestions: U mite wana do training mode and start with the basics. Then start moving towards more complex combinations.

PS: Roy>Marth hands down. And I only use Swordsman Characters (aka Link, Y. Link, Roy, and Marth...very rarily do I ever use him)

 

lol, did training mode years ago. I consider my Falcon suck in relation to my other mains, but there is quite a lot of advanced movements in that video. Almost all my aerials were L-cancelled, quite a lot of short-hopped aerials as well, and many instances where I used evasive DI when when being edgeguarded. My Falcon blows in comparison to my better chars (Marth, Falco and Fox for example), but my Falcon is far past 'training mode'.

Um, sorry but if you're talking tier alone, Marth is light years ahead of Roy. Roy is Low Tier, and Marth is 2nd in the High Tier category.

Marth's potential far exceeds Roy because of his incredibly good knockback and combo-ability. His knockback gives him a devastatingly brutal aerial game, that Roy simply can't match because of his fast-falling nature and weak knockback on aerials.

Don't really mean to generalize, but if you truly think Roy > Marth in terms of character potential, then I'd have to say you're very unaware of a lot of advanced smash gameplay (and in case Dogen comes across this, I don't mean wavedashing or L-cancels. I'm talking about simple metagame). Anyone who intimately understands a lot of the mechanics of SSBM's gameplay wouldn't ever consider Roy better than Marth at all if you were to compare the two.

Plus, the game doesn't have a set difficulty level. Sure, the game is easy in terms of getting everything completed, but what really matters if how well you fair against others. Sure, you say your friends are no challenge, but by your Roy > Marth statement, I already gather that your friends aren't all that good.

 

That was awesome how Greg recovered.


You still pwnd him in the end though. xD

 

My friend Greg has a habit of making comebacks when he's close to losing. I don't know if it's because he doesn't get serious until the end, or if he changes his strategy, or both, lol. That's not the first time he's made a drastic comeback in a match I've had with him.

In fact, I have another match we had where he makes a significant comeback (this is also another vid I'm shamelessly reviving):

My SHFFL'ed NAirs were horrible here. *frown* It's sad.

 

It's funny how you had 4 lives and he was down to 1. xD
