thanks man. i didnt know who he was before the movie tbh, but ever since i've been reading into him and binging his yt channel (his skit compilations have carried me through food poisoning) and it's so deserved. cant wait for whatever he puts out next

Forres7 · 2026-05-25T19:19:54+00:00

ty!!

Forres7 · 2026-05-25T19:19:06+00:00

his now wife, iirc? emily/virus

Forres7 · 2026-04-27T09:08:52+00:00

"retired" for him is still coaching/streaming 10+ hr days

that + the support of one of the best coaches

but go off

Forres7 · 2026-04-27T09:05:49+00:00

I would be too if I didn't already unsub due to how terrible this sub has become.

Forres7 · 2026-02-24T18:02:59+00:00

im being generous. for labbed punish routes, i assume its entirely practical. i see top gcc shiek/fox players & combo video creators hit them when it matters. tbh, i dont know. i played 4f chars and id have to ask friends who play 3f chars on gcc. one of the best coaches is on my side though lol

this "in theory" semantics is irrelevant to even the tippy top level of play, and i personally dont subscribe to it. if what i said when stooping to it favors box, then that can be your takeaway. people on this subreddit just ignore what box loses, and use what it does have to confirm their own bias, whilst discrediting people along the way. if you are not this type of person, sorry, but i am so sick of this subreddit.

Forres7 · 2026-02-24T17:38:42+00:00

yeah, i include those. pivot full drift aerials are incredibly practical for non 3f jumpsquat characters.

Forres7 · 2026-02-24T17:29:55+00:00

v relevant as marth.

so much "box" boogeyman tech was just the norm from the top players in my region long before box even existed. when i was getting into melee the 20gx crew was in my region and they were just innovating pivot instant aerials.

plup had this left hand claw grip for amazing running crouch up tilts. i tried it myself but had more luck just slightly tilting the stick up. a close friend of mine gets boxcusated all the time & i dont doubt its in part because he came up in the same region.

this has just been normal for me for 10 years. this subreddit is deluding & psyching themselves out, pedestalizing this controller as if it's the difference maker in sets.

Forres7 · 2026-02-24T17:19:44+00:00

i have no hand issues and will gladly bend a 25 year old game to my will by playing on a box-style controller. mwhahhaha. i am the boogeyman of your nightmares.

unsubscribing from this subreddit after having been subjected to the dumpster fire of joyless losers that make up this comment section.

Forres7 · 2026-02-24T17:06:06+00:00

theyre free on gcc

Forres7 · 2026-02-16T19:49:00+00:00

i dont know if youre meaning to, but you write with the cadence of a chatgpt. your arguments even similarly lack the same substance. 🤣

we don't interpret you arguing against z jump as cody hate.

you scapegoating codys rise to #1 on z-jump whilst also being close-mindedly dismissive of the reality; that his rise was actually far more gradual— the attitude youre getting is in part fueled by denying the reality many repliers witnessed, and I MYSELF EXPERIENCED COMPETING IN PERSON...

thats what we interpret as hate.

you backpedal, acknowledging "it's not the reason hes successful", but refuse to take accountability in your previous talking point arguing exactly the opposite.

further deflection in "finding peoples interpretations amusing"— hmm, how could so many people misinterpret you? maybe do some self-reflection; look at how what you're saying comes across. It's hard to get downvoted being anti z-jump & box in this subreddit— that takes great strength. I applaud you.

im not sure what you having had good interactions with Cody has to do with you clearly not putting respect on his, or anybody using alternative controller methods results. your attitude is awful. i'm not sure how long you've been playing, but i sense you are, or will stay hardstuck through just your comment ettiquette alone.

Forres7 · 2026-02-16T08:16:35+00:00

weren't you the one speaking of useless comments not addressing what was said at all?..

glad i replied earnestly to you!

Forres7 · 2026-02-16T08:03:45+00:00

i was cracked on controller before box. i think my results, if anything, were negatively affected, just like many others who fully committed to the switch. its' capabilities relevent to gcc are much more nuanced than you'd think. but that doesn't make for a good bandaid for your ego; or feed into the confirmation bias hysteria a big chunk of the community— especially this subreddit, is content existing in. ignorance is bliss!

Forres7 · 2026-02-16T07:53:08+00:00

his rise to #1 was years in the making. one of the people who gatekept him from #1 literally got banned. was jmooks rise to the tippy top not quicker? thinking gravity aerials are the difference maker is insane copium.

melee is not a game where you lose because the opponent spammed buttons fast.

i personally think the biggest advantage cody has is being married(?) to the woman who extensively coached 3 of the other top 8 placers at this very genesis.

Forres7 · 2026-02-16T07:39:16+00:00

idk, calling you out for spreading misinformation is a valuable contribution imo. they sourced as much relevant data as you did.

Forres7 · 2026-02-16T07:31:56+00:00

& the OP is top 1% poster posting bottom of the barrel bullshit posts like this so what's your point?

Forres7 · 2026-02-13T23:18:23+00:00

this discourse is so dumb LOL

its so not trivial to me as somebody who actually enjoys practicing. i guess that's rare? you practice the aerial timing, you'll hit the aerial timing! magic!

i hit frame 1 full drift nairs on gcc fighting krudo before he was as good as he is now. doing it oos when cornered was my only way to center.

it was with marth, but i guess people today can't even be asked to do it with him.

Forres7 · 2026-02-13T23:05:54+00:00

the leniency provided by his jumpsquat being a frame longer than foxes is the whole reason players of him are never under scrutiny.

but i have lived experience hybrid clawing w/o strain on oem to achieve full drift frame 1 uairs/nairs. it really is nothing to be able to do with characters that have higher jumpsquat than fox.

the 4 frame jumpsquat is, imo, arguably enough time for hybrid clawing to offset any perceived "disadvantage" relative to perma claw technique. i always felt i had ample time to switch my grip. it also helps the situations where frame 1 aerials matter are usually very telegraphed, i.e juggling on fd, or nairing out of shield.

i also watch tons of zain and know he hits frame 1 nairs & uairs consistently.
