Hooooly crap! Those were some of the most intense matches I have ever played. First I had some 1 on 1 with Wasmr, who was using Metaknight and that was all neck and neck but I managed to beat him pretty much all the way through. I think he went DK for the last level, but I still got him.
Then it was Tao, Dark, and Shea in a 4 way. I really hate not having damage counters show. I don't think I even realized it, but I think I use that to predict opponents flight patterns when they get attacked in order to keep my timing polished down to a competitive level.
Either way, sorry Shizzle, you were definitely good, but I have to rate Tao as the harshest competition, followed by Dark. It definitely felt like they controlling the flow of the match and I was busy surfing it. Cowabunga.
