FD should not be a counterpick.

It's a completely flat stage with absolutely no damaging obstacles, aside from the edges lips which gimp, but can be worked around in under 3 matches of practice. If your character doesn't get an advantage on FD, strike and ban it, because every character who doesn't excel on FD does fine on every other stage, due to the platforms and smaller layouts.

Because I'll be late for my class.

A recent looking combo video. I felt that everyone here should have a look.

"Bent and the Jarvis brothers were in court Tuesday and were ordered held in a juvenile detention center for 21 days."

I used to get really lazy when I played on the ladder; hence my 21-7 score.

Of course, I have stepped up my game recently, resulting in my 9 win streak, so...

I dunno...

It's actually a surprising list, considering most newbs play with Pit, Ike, and Toon Link.

I'd like a rapier, plz.

Suits my fighting style; very weak offense, lots of dodging.

Oh, so it's not just me. It's really bothersome when you're in the middle of it, and your pet (in my case, cat) somehow finds a way to nudge open the door and walk in.

It just doesn't feel right when you've got an animal in the same room as you like that.

Continuing off my point that Olimar doesn't suck... watch the below videos.

Now, on the topic of items. It's true that, if dispersed evenly to all players, items still make the match somewhat even for all the characters, if not even more even. However, items are extremely fast and powerful, killing people at ridiculously low percentages. It's true that they can be avoided sometimes, but the very notion that most items can blow people straight to hell with a simple, unpredictable input of Forward and Z, with an extremely low chance to avoid, is simply unacceptable in most competitive play.

That said, items are all fine and dandy in friendly play, especially in Free For Alls, but if you're trying to compete to see who's the best, or you're trying to prove one character is better than the other, items are simply too hazardous to show the true skill of the players, and more importantly, the characters themselves, since items aren't part of a natural character's moveset and therefore makes it impossible to determine which character is better than the other.

Supersteph54, go to your Start browser and start your program 'Run.' Type in 'cmd' and click OK. A command prompt will open up. Type "ping/t www.newgrounds.com" without the quotes and hit enter. The program will begin to ping Newgrounds and a list will start to manifest on the program. On each line, there should be a phrase that says 'time=XXms.' Figure out the average time you get. If it's 60ms or less, the lag likely isn't your fault, but rather; the distance between you and your opponents. If it's ridiculously large, like, for example, in the triple digits, then it's likely the lag was your fault.

If that is the case, with the triple digits, simply restart your computer and make sure you have no Youtube videos or chatrooms open when you decide to start playing Brawl wifi again, and the lag will have likely resolved itself.

All of that aside, Olimar is an extremely powerful newcomer. All of Olimar's attacks (excluding tilts and Nair) involve his Pikmin, which means that all of these attacks have 'disjointed' property; in other words, they are weapons that aren't part of the user's body(swords, lucario's aura, ness's bat, etc), and they serve as shields as much as they do weapons, because if said weapon is hit, the user receives no damage. Since almost all of Olimar's attacks are like that, he can pretty much just win by jiggling the Cstick like an epileptic person going through a seizure, since the attacks are fast, overpowering and block physical attacks AND projectiles.

His Up Smash kills at about 90%; ridiculous.

Side B is is camping game.

Olimar's Neutral B and Down B GUARANTEE he'll always have Pikmin by his side.

Also, have you seen his grab range? Freaking reaches 3 Olimars in front of him, and blue pikmin Back Throw is like an OHKO at like 70%.

Sonic has a kill move, btw. It's called "Back Air."

Lucas. The tier list says so.

Condensed Version
S: Meta Knight, Snake, Wario, Falco, Diddy Kong, King Dedede
A: Marth, Mr. Game & Watch, Pikachu, Olimar, Ice Climbers, R.O.B., Kirby
B: Lucario, Zero Suit Samus, Toon Link, Pit, Donkey Kong
C: Peach, Luigi, Fox, Wolf, Sonic, Sheik
D: Bowser, Zelda, Pokémon Trainer, Ike
E: Lucas, Mario, Ness, Yoshi, Samus
F: Jigglypuff, Captain Falcon, Link, Ganondorf

Which is weird, because I rape all with Lucas.

What 5? I don't see a 5.

So get into matches for lots of time on end for maximum damage to your time hindering schedule.

Ask them what two plus two is.

Oh, my mum doesn't let me go into other people's houses. Ah well.

Smashfests are all day friendlies, free, more fun, and an equivalent method to get noticed.

Oh. In that case, I should look some up. But is it really possible for something like that to be 'free'?

John, look on smashboards for smashfests in the new york area, go to regional zones and see, you might find something!

Sure, okay, it's on record, John's Yoshi sucks.

The Internet: Fucking up people's sarcasm with lack of tones since 1969.

I'm not really sure how good my Yoshi is, considering I never really took him to an IRL tourney(or the friendlies involved within), so...

My Yoshi sucks anyway. I can give you 999+ damage in about 3 seconds and waste the next 3 to 5 minutes trying to kill you.

Tch, I go through enough trouble to try winning once. But this... this made me die a little inside.

Honestly, this is what I think the list should look like. Let's go with it for now and debate it along the way together.
