dense reef
#

i forgot i didnt have my jumpp

prime garnet
#

k, lemme get an actual character

#

but before i do

#

what do YOU think is something you need to improve on?

#

lmao

#

dunking contest

dense reef
prime garnet
#

mhm mhm

dense reef
#

i notice i also throw out random moves at the wrong time

prime garnet
#

what kinds of combos

dense reef
#

like raptor bost

dense reef
#

simple but i cant land it

prime garnet
#

gotcha

#

wait do you mean nair 1 into fair?

dense reef
#

that too

prime garnet
#

bc like with falcon nair 2 is mostly guaranteed if you hit it far enough off the ground

#

what controller are you playing with?

dense reef
#

joy cons

#

flip miss input

prime garnet
#

my techs are not on point SkullEmoji

#

anywho

#

my brotha

dense reef
#

well joycon

prime garnet
#

why jc?

dense reef
#

im playing with one rn

prime garnet
#

SINGLE SkullEmoji

#

BROTHA

#

WHY

dense reef
#

is that bad

#

idk i dont have anything else

prime garnet
#

monsieur if you would like to get gud you gotta play with good controllers

#

bad game

dense reef
#

what was this game

prime garnet
#

lol

#

but yeah, you might wanna invest in a better controller

#

lots of people play on pro

#

some (like me) on gamecube

dense reef
#

is that expensive

dense reef
prime garnet
#

hang on

dense reef
#

okay my other joycon is charged now yippee

dense reef
#

holy shit

dense reef
dense reef
#

the game cube one looks so funny

prime garnet
#

the second two are budget options from a well known brand

prime garnet
dense reef
#

ok but what can these controllers do that my joycons cant

#

youre discriminating my joy cons

#

i dont support

prime garnet
#

XD

#

joycons tend to be very silly

#

so,

#

they eventually develop stick drift that (for me) is pretty unbearable

dense reef
#

oh no controller cancer

#

very tragic

prime garnet
#

they have latency issues which might explain your misinputs

#

its basically input lag

#

on top of the input lag from online play

dense reef
#

what about those rectangles that the community made for that one disabled guy to play

#

the box thing

#

that

prime garnet
#

those are chill

#

theyre kinda expensive i think

dense reef
#

i think ill go for the second gamecube you sent me

prime garnet
#

they're for pre-order rn

#

the hitbox's

dense reef
#

250 DOLLARS

#

20 DOLLAR SHIPPING

#

my poor ass fainted from looking at that price

prime garnet
#

lmaooooooo

dense reef
#

i forgot we were playing

prime garnet
#

but yeah, generally if you wanna get good, get good periphereals

#

im so done after that falcon punch

#

XD

dense reef
#

oof ggs the spotify playlist gave me superpowers

dense reef
prime garnet
#

i put mine on too

#

oki

#

so

#

real

#

coaching

#

starts

#

now

dense reef
#

ok

prime garnet
#

noooo

dense reef
#

oof another misinput

prime garnet
#

the misinput

#

ok

#

so

dense reef
#

is this how you felt last round

prime garnet
#

as falcon players we love side-b right

dense reef
#

yes

prime garnet
#

its a great combo starter

#

its got set knockback

#

but

#

its hella slow

#

like

#

if i shield it i can run up upsmash

#

so ONLY use it if you know for sure youre gonna land it

dense reef
#

hmm ok ok

prime garnet
#

otherwise you might have better results with run up nair or dashgrab

#

yeah so

dense reef
#

ggs

prime garnet
#

that falling nair jab you did

#

totally true bc i tried to do something out of shield

#

BUT

#

if i did keep up my shield i couldve rolled through if you kept rapid jabbing

#

(my typing is horrid so i keep having to fix my sentences thats why im do damn slow)

#

so*

#

anywya

#

anyway*

dense reef
#

what should have i done instead of jab

#

if you rolled

prime garnet
#

you couldve jumped again to catch me trying to punish you, couldve up-b'd to just say "f*** you" to sheild, run away is an option, and obv couldve grabbed

#

but thats all if i held sheild

#

if i rolled after your nair you could dashgrab, could up-b, could dash attack, could wait and see what i do, could run, could push me to get out of centre stage

#

its really up to you and what you've caught on to what your opponent does

#

(this bandaid on my finger keeps making me press multiple keys at once 💀 )

dense reef
#

would have up-b worked on both of those

prime garnet
#

yep

#

bc falcon is funny and up-b is HUGE

#

friggety frack

dense reef
#

oof tragic low tier recoveries

prime garnet
#

woop

#

but yeah, still, less side-b

#

noooooo

dense reef
#

rip

#

1:24 is crazy

prime garnet
#

have you practised your d-throw combos?

dense reef
#

not really

#

on into nair

#

AAAA

prime garnet
#

do you know how to tech?

dense reef
#

Yes hold block right before impact

#

or press

prime garnet
#

not really hit, but before impact into the stage yeah

#

sad days

dense reef
#

I dont feel joy because of that falcon punch at the start

prime garnet
#

felt bro

dense reef
#

aaaaa

#

oofffff

prime garnet
#

rq, do you notice something different in how i play falcon versus how you do?

dense reef
#

hmm

#

no

prime garnet
#

really?

#

nothing?

dense reef
#

oh yeah

#

nothing

prime garnet
#

XD

dense reef
#

idk youre better

#

is that it

prime garnet
#

im not always holding forward

#

you always want to push in to the opponent no matter your situations

#

but occasionally you need to give them some space to be dumb

#

so that eventually

#

you punish them

#

because we as smash players are quite dumb

dense reef
#

hmm ok i see what you mean

prime garnet
#

you got the concept!

dense reef
#

to be more pacient

prime garnet
#

like all of my second stock was bait and punish and it worked!!

#

yeah patience is pretty good in this game lol

dense reef
#

something i dont have in ranked

prime garnet
#

ranked in what?

dense reef
#

like in online

#

gsp

prime garnet
#

ohhh yeah gotcha

#

and always know your kill options 😉

dense reef
#

ill win this match

#

dense reef
#

prime garnet
#
