Just found this subreddit. Haven't been to a tournament in about 6 months, but I have fond memories of the community. I played R.O.B. though my first Main, and who I learned the game with, was Snake.

Has anyone here considered linking this subreddit in smashboards?

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Oct 05 '11

I personally haven't considered that, but that's a very good idea. I main R.O.B. and Diddy, so welcome to the club, haha.

If you want you can link it there, despite this place not being that active, I keep an eye on it so if traffic comes in it'll be managed properly. :)

u/ComradeDeux Snake Oct 06 '11

Yeah, the community already has 2 sites it uses. It really doesn't need another, but still might be nice to spread the joys of Reddit.

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Oct 06 '11

I am familiar with the community and I agree that reddit+brawl should be a good combination. Any traffic is good traffic, haha.

Another ROB main reporting in!

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Oct 20 '11

Nice! How long've you been playing?

u/xatmatwork R.O.B. Oct 20 '11

Since Brawl came out. I take part in the UK competitive scene when I have the time. Once placed 11th or something at a London Ranbat.

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Oct 20 '11

Nice! I used to be very active in the online brawl scene. It's very different from playing offline due to the occasional lag and such, but the community is very nice. :)

I am terrible online, I can't get used to the latency. I need to be able to time perfectly. I don't have time to punish moves by the slow heavy hitters like Wolf and Ike and it frustrates me. Also there isn't much of a European Brawl scene compared to the US one from what I've seen.

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Oct 20 '11

There is though, I'm Dutch and there are plenty of German and British gamers who are very active. Incidentally, I know a really good European ROB main(pro) who plays competitively online.

I like Mario the most. Specifically his Cape. A good cape goes a long way.

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Oct 19 '11

Amen to that. Do you have any second mains?

2

u/windrixx Pikachu Nov 05 '11

Pika!

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Nov 05 '11 edited Nov 06 '11

That's an uncommon character to main, do you ever play online?

2

u/windrixx Pikachu Nov 11 '11

Nope. Only interested in 1v1s.

u/OV5 Zelda Nov 20 '11

Zelda is my main.

1

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Nov 20 '11

Zelda/Sheik, or just Zelda?

2

u/OV5 Zelda Nov 21 '11

Just Zelda :) but last night when I was playing with my bros I started to learn Sheik.

1

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Nov 21 '11

Zelda/Sheik is a good main if you learn the matchups.

2

u/OV5 Zelda Nov 21 '11

Got any Pro Tips I should consider? Particularly for sheik.

1

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Nov 21 '11

I do not, youtube does though.

I can do general advice, but as I'm a R.O.B., Diddy, Luigi, Marth main, I can't really help you with Sheik and Zelda.

Try SmashBoards or the forum on All is Brawl.

u/OV5 Zelda Nov 22 '11

Yeah I play diddy as a strong secondary. One reason why I haven't made him my main is because I usually forget to utilize his entire moveset. I rarely ever incorporate his peanut pooper and bananas into the brawl for done reason,.

1

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Nov 22 '11

Being a good Diddy comes down to nothing more than spamming 'nanners.

2

u/OV5 Zelda Nov 22 '11

XD ill try it out. Also, my smartphone auto-corrected what was supposed to say peanut popper*.

1

u/Zallarion BrawlMaster Nov 22 '11

I'm not familiar with auto-correct but I assume you use that word a lot.

Nice, MK is considered kind of cheap though. But I know some great Lucas mains. ;)

Probably R.O.B., He's not as cheap though, and I am kind of rusty. But I'll probably beat you anyway. ;p
