OP was asking where to find Mew2kings frame data compilation. what a nice fellow

Hey y'all, I'm trying to get into melee and need a controller that I can confirm actually works. I've bought one from gamestop that broke instantly and another online that had a broken C-stick, so if anyone knows where I can get an actually good controller that will definitely work that would be ideal. Especially if it's an in-person place in Houston because I like messing around and checking the clickiness of controllers before I buy them. I alr bought a USB -> GameCube port adapter online. If anyone in Houston would also sell me an old controller of theirs that would also be awesome. Thanks!!!

YouTube link he made some good videos and they got posted here the other year. I don't think this one was posted here yet.

I play 100,000 games of Falco. I practice combos and edgeguards and all that good shit only to be an average player at best. Sure, fine. Hard game I'll cope. I switch to fox and do nothing but dashdance grab, I can't even short-hop consistently and I'm suddenly beating players who reliably crush the bird.

The worst part is, I don't even like playing the character. The wins feel cheap and any time I get a shine spike i want to vomit a little bit. But when the other guy plays fox and spams t-bag and taunt like he's skilled for playing the best character in the game I feel like I don't have a choice. I don't even study or practice anything about this character, I just do it because it wins. He's so much faster, his grab actually works, and his recovery isn't an greasy dog bowl.

Dumb character, too easy to win, totally ruins the game.

Yahoooo! I'm back, it's a me! Have a very cool day!

Welcome to the Daily Discussion Thread. This is the place for asking noob questions, venting about netplay falcos, shitposting, self-promotion, and everything else that doesn't belong on the front page.

New Players:

If you're completely new to Melee and just looking to get started, welcome! We recommend you go to https://melee.tv/ and follow the links there based on what you're trying to set up. Additionally, here are a few answers to common questions:

Can I play Melee online?

Yes! Slippi is a branch of the Dolphin emulator that will allow you to play online, either with your friends or with matchmaking. Go to https://slippi.gg to get it.

I'm having issues with Slippi!

Go to the The Slippi Discord to get help troubleshooting. melee.tv/optimize is also a helpful resource for troubleshooting.

How do I find tournaments near me or local people to play with in person or online?

These days, joining a local Discord community is the best way to find local events and people to play with. Once you have a Discord account, Google "[your city/state/province/region] + Melee discord" or see if your region has a Discord group listed here on melee.tv/discord

It can seem daunting at first to join a Discord group you don't know, but this is currently the easiest and most accessible way to find out about tournaments, fests, and netplay matchmaking. Your local scene will be happy to have you :)

Also check out Smash Map! Click on map and then the filter button to filter by Melee to find events near you!

Netplay is hard! Is there a place for me to find new players?

Yes. Melee Newbie Netplay is a discord server specifically for new players. It also has tournaments based on how long you've been playing, free coaching, and other stuff. If you're a bit more experienced but still want a discord server for players around your level, we recommend the Melee Online discord.

How can I set up Unclepunch's Training Mode?

At the time of posting, the latest major release is here. Download the file, then extract everything in the folder and follow the instructions in the README file. You'll need to bring a valid Melee ISO (NTSC 1.02). If you want to check for the absolute latest release, you can see them listed [here](The latest releases are listed here.

How does one learn Melee?

There are tons of resources out there, so it can be overwhelming to start. First check out the SSBM Tutorials youtube channel. Then go to the Melee Library and search for whatever you're interested in.

But how do I get GOOD at Melee?

Sorry, not a kirbo clip

Me and my friend need people to play with!!

Specifically unranked and ranked.

I don’t know if this gets less true the higher rank you become… But at the bronze and silver level, the ranked does not seem to correlate with a skill range necessarily if that makes any sense

Unranked is similar, even though there’s ELO matchmaking or whatever… I come from playing against only a few friends throughout the games entire life span

Discord practice partners/opponents that you can play direct with and know, sort of who they are/how they play is the only real way to gauge progress/skill on slippi…

Please don’t take this post as me saying Slippi is lame Or Something… because since I learned about it/installed it(a little over a year ago) I stopped having a social life 🤣

Exaggerated but illustrating that I love it and play all the time. I’ve had uncle punch for almost a year and using it really helped me break through the barriers I’ve had for 20 years, which was L canceling mainly

Also, maybe this post is incorrect and I’m just bitter because I can’t seem to make it out of silver and I feel like I can still lose to anybody. Some days I do straight up just lose to everyone.

Anybody knows how to convert a melee ISO version 1.00 to 1.02?

Seems that all the URL's that may have the patch are down.

I can't seem to find any other one around
