As Adam is one of the coolest human beings associated with gaming, I'm hoping Hot_Bid fails in an extremely embarassing fashion.

Sorry Hot_Bid.

Adam is pretty cool but no one is as eSports as Hot_Bid. I might be biased tho.

Good luck Hot_Bid. No one likes Ohio State. They cost me a billion dollars by losing their first game in the NCAA tournament ruining my chance at a perfect bracket first.

this would be funny. Imagine Hot_Bid gets matched against some pro then gets 0-2'd pretty fast lol. That would be mean though

Maybe my nephew can help you out before the event. IIRC, 2nd graders go on summer vacation around that time.

Play Marth, you'll never get anywhere near the tech skill required to play Fox or Falco before Anaheim.

While Marth is an "easy" character to learn and beat really bad players with, he's really hard to actually win a game against anyone who knows how to play because he's so slow. He will just get kited to 50% from lazers before he can actually land a hit, that's a big disadvantage. If you are falco/fox you can shine the lazers. Also if you play fox or falco you can get quite a bit of % on an amateur marth player before engaging. Spacing is also much less important for falco/fox than marth.

When it comes to actually winning, I have found Marth to be probably one of the hardest heroes. You need to be able to understand every matchup really well and have the mechanics down 100% or its impossible to win.

Falco is probably the best hero to play, he's easier to get wins against players because he hits harder than Fox, he has a smaller learning curve and his dair spike is easier to use than marth. You can get some ridiculously dumb kills with just dodge b-smash because his knockback is just ridiculous. Yes those characters are hard to master, but that has nothing to do with the playability of them. You don't need to reach the level of Mango just to be able to play them.

Shiek/C.Falcon are some other heroes to look at, but when I compare the amount of time I practised with Shiek/Marth compared to Falco, I found Falco to be the easiest. I still think Falco is the best bet as a low level amateur.
