Good games tonight so far! I really enjoyed playing against you iclim4, though I will always dislike your Pikachu... Once when you were up like 3 to my one, I was trying to practice a move of mine... It is really hard to pull off, but IF I can get it, then Jigglypuff with move up a notch!

ctk good to play against you finally. You are good, but need practice. You do the same thing I was guilty of when I started playing WoW. Up +B is a great move, but only if you use it right, otherwise it will get you killed. Keep it up.

Shea, you are fun to play as always. I would have stayed longer but something else needed my attention after that fight. Keep practicing, Your dodges work against most attacks, but the patient player can hit you if you are reckless with them.

I might be back on later but I still gotta eat...

Help guys which character should I use against Ike?My friend keeps using it and even though I tried my best with both pit and Toon link they got owned.This does not only happen against him, also with other people that play with Ike.Dammit I hate fighting against Ike.

I think the real solution is to practice and get better, not change characters.  ^_^


How do I practice playing against the CPU on the highest level of difficulty(cause,I already do that)or fighting one on one with everybody of Vgchartz(even though I will get my ass kick)?



Fun games luinil, CTK and Shea. ^_^
I can't believe pikachu's forward B takes priority over Jigglypuffs roll.
It was fun butting heads.
Shea is as good a dodger as ever.
CTK, stop spamming your recovery when you're thrown up.
It makes Toon link vulnerable.
I enjoyed the brawls a lot and will be looking forward to our next ones. ^_^

Totally agree, Ike can do a lot of damage, but most of his moves are pretty solidly telegraphed, so as long as you make sure to anticipate the less telegraphed moves, it's almost impossible to be beaten by him 1 on 1

If you want a solid strategy to train, my suggestion is go into training mode in the single player, adn first turn the speed down to 1/4. Use this to practice the timing for your moves; understanding which of your moves can be pulled off the fastest, seeing which moves have teh most knockback and understanding how early you have to start your moves in order to be able to have them execute at a the proper placement.

One you get these moves down, you slowly increase the speed until you're fighting at 1.5x the normal speed. You can adjust the CPU level in the main menu. I've found that a level 9 and 1.5x speed can usually give me at least as much trouble as going up agaisnt a real person, but by training at teh 1.5x speed, when I go back to the normal speed, the battle feels much slower, and you have more time to recognize and read moves that people are telegraphing.

I'm still confirming one last thing myself, but I think that if you set the CPU to level 9 in training mode, and set them to attack, they'll actually get more difficult to fight with each successive victory against them. i did kirby vs Pit for kicks and found that I'd constantly win the first 3 or 4 conflicts, but the everything after that would be completely neck and neck. 



Seppukuties is like LBP Lite, on crack. Play it already!

Eh? I wonder what move that would be.

yeah good games.
You saved my toon link when I went under the platform, that was funny. =P
Also with our Marth vs toon link battle did you just give up?
You stopped moving once I started juggling you.

Yes Iclim, I had lost the match already and wasn't having much fun, so at the time I thought it would be more fun to watch you juggle my marth. It was humorous. ^_^
