So I'm out at lunch with
@dansalvato
and I mention Melty Blood and this dude without missing a damn beat tells me he has a poverty setup on him and pulls out this "fightstick" and holds it like his firstborn child.
Melty Blood fiends are something else good lord.
"I'm sorry, little one."
Up smash will whiff an idle Olimar unless he's at the height of his idle. Only hits his back while shielding if you use it before the game spaces you away from him. (So only landing.)
Olimar size buffs hitting this man's shield hard.
There's a lot more I labbed, but I just feel bad for him to release it all.
Looking like Ridley's shield out here. (Yikes)
No long fancy Twitlonger.
Just coming out saying that I'm starting HRT this month and that I go by She/Her pronouns now.
(No fancy picture because I have to keep boy moding for work but that's a work in progress)
😎
Wall Throw Side B is a variant of side B that only occurs if Ridley brings an opponent on the ground directly into a wall.
It is MUCH stronger than other forms and can't be teched. It can only be seen in traditional 1v1 vs Steve afaik.
Some guy came up to me at this tournament and was like, "You're Akashic?" When I told him yes, he asked me what Greninja's pros and cons and match up spread was like.
He's like. "What if I told you I play you next and play Pichu?"
BOI
It's strange, how powerful words are. With a simple combination of words I can implant an image or suggestion in your mind.
"Waluigi is in Smash Ultimate as a Bayonetta Echo Fighter."
I refuse to use this power wisely.
Oh BTW, if you see news reports this morning that Unemployment is falling at an incredibly high rate its not just because some people are returning to work. In Florida they once again changed how our claims were processed and denied most claims without sending correspondence.
The Thunder Smash 2 Arcadian trailer uses a picture of Myran as an unranked player and shows close ups of PS4 controllers.
I'm starting to see why they're having production issues.
Kinda insane that House of 3K used Venia as a clip mill for years to build great clout as a TO org only for them to turn around and be dishonest and even collude on presenting him the wrong information on why he's still banned.
No civility, just toxic.
@BlankSmash
@MVD731
I can't believe he spent his valuable time when Myran and I were brand new players at a tournament and explained high level mentality and nerves to us, how could he?
I can't believe it, but I made the crazy losers run from 9th against Seibrik, Uncivil, Skittles, Zeus, Monthu, and double Myran and took Spectrum 2!!!!
I'm kinda overwhelmed, that was the hardest losers run of my life with several bracket demons. Greninja is top tier my dudes.
I need help.
Car broke down yesterday while running Uber, I've been dealing withf inances from being disowned, 2 car payments, historic rent, and transition.
A $1200 repair I MUST pay by Friday on my rent week will kill me, no way to earn without car.
Hey
@smashgg
. Me and a few other players in the bracket at Momocon had some concerns about how Top 96 bracket works. This will be a full thread with pictures, as a few of us noticed some glaring issues with the structure of the tournament and it's integrity.
"Sleep? What is sleep?" He says as he passes 30 hours of his 48 hr shift. His eyes weaken, legs crumble, arms grow heavy, soul weakens, and his spirit shatters.
As he nears the brink, one single thought keeps him tied to this reality.
"Greninja is top tier."
He smiles.
Crazy how much stronger and more confident I look after I began to transition.
Honestly the only candid shot I've ever liked of me playing,
@RedShirt__
is a god.
I uhh... Won bracket today.
That's cool. I finally beat Uncivil. That's more important.
I cried.
It's been a tough day, that really just... felt nice you know.
Thanks for listening.
Very excited to be working with Noble and leveling up the boys! Quarantine slowed us down, but expect great things soon!
Lessons open soon BTW ;)

I'm so fucking proud of
@MyranSSB
What a fucking glow up grinding his ass off during quarantine.
Those long night sessions with him and Uncivil going ham at each other with coaching after every set. It's great to see that, combined with his own learning, have some pay off.
I...
Really like Hop as a rival.
Any serious esports competitor that doesn't like him either never struggled and were auto good or possess insane irony and lack of self awareness.
More on this later.
Night post:
One of my literal favorite things is finding out what other people are passionate about.
The way people light up when they talk about themselves and what they love with no restraint is one of the best things in the world.
It could just be me, but I love it.
@LurkingManHOH
@BesuBaru
I'm not justifying it. But as someone who's play many games early you'd be incredibly surprised as to how much get thrown in now
It's finally here. Introducing Shadow Slide! At first glance it seems very insignificant, but the video shows a few ways to implement into it your play. (Plus it's just plain flashy)
The theory behind it also applies to certain other characters side specials too. Go lab it out!
17/361 at Smash Conference. Had an amazing run and wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for all the support this weekend, I'm going to keep pushing hard from here on out!
@imChemX
This was really dumb of the Bowser because he definitely should've known about the bug with down b not killing on zoom in anyway.
He deserved to lose.
Was doing practice VOD analysis on a practice stream of sorts and kinda lost my mind over Myran's completely underrated spacing.
I never give him enough credit, NO ONE gives him enough credit.
Just look at this madness.
@MyranSSB
Adds Fire Emblem character that finally uses different weapons and a unique moveset, no counter, and a projectile.
Fans: Shame they're all the same.
I. Uh. I'm so glad I realized most smashers are just, dumb.
I spent too many years arguing with y'all. Should've held my W
Can confirm. Switch was missing this morning. Entire set up table was pulled out with no switch on it. Replacement was used that had the faulty ruleset pre made.
More Terry Stuff.
His ledge snap is larger facing forward and Rising Tackle with your back to ledge causes you to bounce, be sure to always reverse his Rising Tackle, you'd be surprised how low he can snap with it this way.
Uncivil beating Gen is huge considering that's one of the handful of match ups most people confidently agree beat Shulk.
Uncivil keeps setting benchmarks for himself and I can't be prouder.
Neither of the boys are done yet though. Myran gonna tear up Losers BET
@AhkeyLatte
Dude just imagine.
You see a trailer with Master Chief walking down a dim hallway. He comes up to a corner, looks past and hears the sound of fighting. He looks off screen, says his iconic, "I need a weapon"
Then a gloved hand hands him a MF super scope.
I'm kinda completely without any other options here so I'm asking for help.
My wallet was stolen today and I lost my license and SSN card, all my cash, and bank cards. I can't work without my license and DOT card, so I need to ask for help to survive.
I got 4th out of 128 at the super mega stacked TNS! Finally beat my number one bracket demon throughout Smash 4 and finally finally got the first legitimate upset I'm proud of.
Really strong result for myself and Greninja. I'm def showing I can keep up.
Wait. People ACTUALLY think Myran is campy and not just Olimar?
LMAO, we clearly didn't watch the same top 8 y'all. This man holds forward non fucking stop I swear to Christ.
He just wants to beat you up.
Whatever you think about him, his girlfriend is like, one of the gentlest and sweetest people I've ever met. If you're harassing her over this (or in general since it's not constructive) you're very weird and I don't mess with you.
It won't help to do it, I promise.
I'm officially down 20 pounds. That's a lot. Especially considering that it hasn't even been a whole month yet. That's even crazier. To think I could realistically hit my goal within half a year is mind boggling.
I understand it gets harder from here, but I've got this.
It's 2018.
I don't see why it's impossible for smashers to think something is cheesy/broken/etc. and also respect the person who is utilizing these tools well.
I hate Falcon, I really enjoy Fatality.
I think ZSS is bull, I mad respect Nairo's grind and big brain gameplay.
Goals:
Best Greninja.
Top Ultimate Competitor
Maintain my steady job unless greater source of income arrives. (Like unrealistically so)
Get swole.
Finally put myself back out on the market again. (I'm satisfied with my personal growth, not done though)
Stream maybe.
Yesterday's highlights.
Came out to my folks yesterday. (I'm bi, never really hid it well but I guess they were surprised)
Won a tournament for the first time in a while finally.
That's a good day friends.
What's the dumbest Terry tech you know? I'll start.
Using taunt to buffer inputs for Super Specials without moving at all.
Need to armor through that pesky Gyro? Holy Water?
Taunt baybeeee.
So exciting news.
Last day of my current job is the 26th. I got the offer in Minnesota! I'll be leaving Florida the 27th or 28th.
Gonna increase my pay by over 25% 😤😤😤
