Welcome to the fighter grind 8]

Hot_bid top 8 ssbm evo2k14? Last year was sick and I dont even know up from down in melee

If you can make grand finals at a local or make it out of pools at a major, that dude should have to wear a michigan shirt on game day.

Bidliever


I snickered, that was clever.

And nice going with your quest! Must have been such a rush to actually come out with that win in an actual MLG competition, I can't even imagine that level lol

wp Ken. You might have won the battle, but the war rages on. You're going down at Blizzcon.

Smash is such a technical game you should be proud to have gotten this far and grateful to have such a deep pool of professional players who have played the game for 10+ years mentoring you

Smash is hard as fuck Ken tried for probably an entire night to teach me only short hopping and I still can't do it. Very impressed you won your bet but Adam is a jerk for not owning it. SHIT DOESN'T COUNT, MAN.


The trick is, it's not in how hard you press the button, but in how fast you *release* it. You can hit it hard, just make sure it's a fast tap and not a press. Smack your thumb onto it like Ali G and it'll short hop every time.

Then there's a lot of people you haven't met.

Care to link me to some profiles of people with 10,000 solo games who are still in diamond??

There's gotta be only a small number of ppl with that many games but I'm sure they're out there. There are people tried really hard but couldn't get out of lower leagues.

Also, master is not what it used to be. There are plenty including myself who peak at what used to be mid master but is now diamond.

GJ hotbid!

Though i totally agree with shreik (though not quite as harsh haha) that the analogy of being a masters player is noooowhere near close

You can't really apply inui logic in smash (a beat b who beat c therefore a>c) which makes it very hard to judge how good someone is. Also there is another point of judging raw skill vs tournament results (there are a lot of factors which come into play that arn't represented by skill but definitely have a large effect on results - wobbling for example lol)

Like, just saying there are guys in the uk (and the uk is a shitty region) (take for example, deathgazer who is 4th/5th in uk) who consistently 2 stocks me every game, and he didn't even make it through the second round of pools at RoF
Would i call him a masters player? Probably low masters i guess

That says a lot about me (how far i have to go still) and you too

The main issue about smash is the levels of skills are MUCH broader than in starcraft, people near the top are just SO much better than everyone else. Hopefully one day you'll get to play one of the gods and get that feeling for yourself If KDJ feels like a god to you now, it will be even more of a shock when you play someone who would just trash him easily

Congratulations on achieving what you set out to do Hot_Bid!
