Need to drop Diddy. Not making any headway with him.

Might as well just stick to only Ness from now on.

I've definitely noticed over the past week or so that (1) I have a hard time being successful with rushdown characters and (2) That I have a ton of trouble fighting ultra agressive players.

I think my general play style favors a lot of resets which doesn't mesh well with characters constantly in your face.

So I've been playing this game single player for most of my time with it, but started playing online recently and I'm disheartened with how damn outclassed I am by most people.

If I had to point out my single biggest weakness, I just can't seem to kill for shit. There are times when I just struggle to finish an opponent at 100+, it's driving me mad.

I am a terrible scrub and SP barely taught me shit.

It's also maddening how everything is ranked with that GSP system. I have a string of poor rematches and my GSP is in the gutter.

Any tips on how to improve?

Whoa this is an official post? Or is it a parody account?


Edit: Ah yes, parody.

What GSP are you at? You should be getting pretty easy fights at the beginning.

congratz! I still need to play some of you guys some time. Been playing alot of lucas

I used to think Toon Link was a trash character and just an inferior version of Young Link, but as I adapted more to his playstyle and less spamming arrows he started to shine. Boomerang into FAir is godly.

EDIT: Never mind my internet spontaneously shit out and I've lost 100k GSP.

I hate this game so much.

My freshly picked Lucina got north of two millions after a successful streak of rematches, but yesterday's shitstreak, which demoralized me and led to that post knocked her down to 500K, while a few other who were already low got knocked down to 90k+.

Currently my best is Link at 1.5m (two matches)

Goddamn I suck, it's driving me so mad.

I dunno what advice to give except to keep at it. You should share replays and then maybe I could give some advice.

Sometimes I feel I'm the only person on this forum who shares replays :/

I'm at 5.2 mil GSP with Samus/Dark Samus but every now and then I'll still run into people who utterly destroy me, and I'm not even sure how. It's like they're reading me mind and everything I do just happens to be the wrong move. And I'm pretty damn good myself. So I dunno. There will always be people who school you.

Is the Level 9 CPU in this game just really psychotically good or am I that bad at fighting Hero?

It's so demoralizing. I was on a huge roll yesterday with Toon Link and today it's either been lag, curbstompings, or being curbstomped while lagging. I can barely manage to get a hit off anymore.

I hate it when I get to matched up with someone lags so much so bad that it actually affect me. I wish that it would be like another games where I could just pick my preferences to match up with people who used LAN adapter or having reliable connections.

Haven't played online in awhile and OMG I love this tourney mode so much!!!!! Played for a few hours tonight, rarely any lag, won 1st in a few, had a great time overall. It's so cool they let you view replays of all the matches too if you want to spend the time to do so. Very very cool.

Salem should of never switched to Hero also.

So what character gives you Imposter Syndrome?

Because every victory with Ness feels hollow.

Did K.Rool get buffed or something? He's suddenly really fun to play.

1v1 Elite Smash. This player was pretty annoying IMO. Too much of a one trick pony just relying on Dedede's side B to trip me up and control the space. I always find these rounds annoying and tedious.


Pretty much destroyed Level 9 Mario. Broke his spirit!

Sucks when you feel like you hit a wall with your main. No matter how well I play K. Rool it doesn't matter when he loses to 80% of the roster. I've put dozens of hours into this character and I don't want to give him up but... man.

I think I'm just having an off day though. I was doing really well yesterday.

Hoping his old friend Banjo can bring some buffs.

Hello. Looking for impressive stage creation suggestions to download that are traditional stage designs (i.e. not mini-games). I saw there was a Bob-Omb Battlefield one in a GameXplain video, but the code doesn't seem to work anymore. :/

Unfortunately custom stages are deleted after a few months. Since most of the hype was around the launch of that feature, you'll probably find most lists are full of dead IDs.
