Well, I used to kick ass with the four swordsmen in this game. Now, though, I'm only good with Marth and tolerable with Roy*. I'm capable of using all of the characters to varying degrees, and the one I use depends on who I'm fighting. Interestingly, my skill with Dr. Mario is right up there with my skill as Marth. Yet, I can't use Mario nearly as well. When I'm playing against computers, I turn off all healing except the Food (computer bait, eheheheh), turn off the Starman and Poke Ball, and proceed to kick their asses. With Poke Balls, they seem to always get Entei or Unown, and often they get Ho-oh... and starmen like to drop onto their heads... That's when I use items at all; typically I'm practicing combos when I fight computers. No one I can fight with is as good as me, so the computers make tolerable practice. Against humans, I'm more lenient. But, when I'm using Marth, no one should EVER use a Hammer against me... it will hurt... especially when they're near an edge. Counter when they have good damage, they'll go over with no way to recover because you cannot double or triple jump with the hammer. The only ones I turn off against humans are the Starman - invincibility isn't any fun - and the Cloaking Device; I SD too much with that... Small TV and bad vision. Not good. I trained a friend in SSBM recently. He was using Roy, I was using Marth. He got quite good, quite fast. Arenas: I play against computers a lot for lack of human |

Ha, I have no preference to items or no items, really. Oftentimes nowadays I'm not the one setting the rules, so things tend to go crazy really fast. On occasion though, I'll set up a classic duel on Final Destination with no items, just to test my skills. I definitely need to get more aggressive with my fighting style though, too often I just sit and wait for my opponent to hit me, and although I like that, it makes battles rather long. I'm also not a fan of the so called "special moves" like that skid slide that Luigi can do, I don't see how they're good for anything but show. | |||

You don't see how a technique that greatly increases speed is good for anything but show? Certainly, it takes practice to use effectively, but... | |||

Kirby used to be my favorite character because he can copy abilities, float in the air for a period of time, and has many other unique abilities. The favorite thing I like to use with Kirby is suiciding and taking your opponent along with you by sucking them in your mouth and fall down or spit them out when you're falling and float back up. Same with DK but with grabbing them. DK is the only character that you can grab and move around with. And the final cheap move is with Yoshi, by converting them into an egg at the edge of the map stage, letting them fall off while struggling to break out of them egg. Well, that's all the cheap moves I know but I'm sure you guys already knew this stuff |

Originally posted by Kyouji Craw ...But when it's used against me I just smack it and watch my opponent fly away, then meteor smash him to hell in a handbasket. I'm sure if I stopped winning because they were used against me I'd learn them, but when they're used against me they're not all that effective. In other news, there's an SSBM tournament going on at my local mall. I've decided to enter with Valcion as my partner. But the thing is, I don't know how to counter any of the moves used by characters he doesn't use (since all of my training is against him). Anyone got any suggestions on what I should expect from people who have less of a life than me when it comes to this game? |

There are a SSBM tournament were you live? I wish there were such tournaments here. I was awesome at SSBM, now I hadn't played it for long time. But with some training I should be able to be as good as I where before... |

Yep yep, tournaments pop up every once in awhile just because of how popular the game is. Whenever my friends and I have a LAN party, about a third of us just go out of the computer room for a few hours and play Melee. We're all really good players, so it's always fun, especially with the crazy rules that everyone comes up with. | |||

Must be cool to know Valcion in person. I think the problem with your friends' wavedashing is it isn't use effectively. When it is, is has no downsides, can increase defense a bit on account of shrugging off some hits and the crouch cancelling thing plus the dodge thing, and it increases defense. They probably just haven't put enough practice in to it. Despite that, if your character has low traction (Mewtwo, Luigi, Ice Climbers, etc.), you don't really have anything to lose from picking it up. Just because things aren't used effectively against you doesn't mean they can't be used effectively at all, you know. Just out of curiosity, where do you live? |

This one goes to Ness. PK Thunder is such a cheap attack. | |||

I vote Ness. He has very unique attacks, and it takes skills and practice to master his usage. That's why when you get really good with him (like I have) it's very rewarding. I am a 1 vs 1 master in SSMB, but I am not so good with 4 people. I lost badly in a 4 person brawl with my friends, and I was rather embarrassed. It was satifying and redeeming to whoop them all in a 1 on 1 duel, one after another using Ness. | |||

I'm da bomb with Kirby! Fav. color: Blue! But I overuse his rock attack. I've been trying not to overuse it, but...I just use it too much... |

It is Fox Captain Falcon and Roy. They are the best no matter what you say. I own with fox and everyone stand the ultimate juggler! I play this game a litttle to much. | |||

Alright, I just recently started using Kirby myself. I've found that his Dash-forward regular attack (that fireball) is an excellent sucker punch. It's almost unavoidable, causes fire damage, and it even has good damage to it. There's not much kick to it, but that's ok because that means you can pull them off rapid-fire on an opponent to rack him up high, then finish him with something like the rock attack or a forward smash. I also like the Hammer attack, it's a good aerial disrupt, has fast recovery time (in the air), and the off-beatness of its ground attack makes it a good move to catch your opponent off guard with (he sees the hammer rear back, figures it's a free attack, gets smacked at the last possible second). Also, does anyone here know what L-Cancelling is? I heard about it, but I don't know how to do it. And Dracoon, trust me, considering what I just said, I don't think you need to worry about playing the game too much. |

I voted for falco. Just because he's slower than fox doesn't mean he's not a good character. He has higher power and you could really screw someone up when they're trying to get back on the level by shooting them and knocking them back. | |||
