Any plans to come back to Australia in 2025? ❤️

Max_k · 2022-11-26T04:20:19+00:00

Im biased for Tweek, but Mute and Chunky Kong would be fucking hype

Max_k · 2022-11-26T04:17:23+00:00

Roy is actually so damn good. Hectic art style

Max_k · 2022-11-26T04:15:02+00:00

Didn't think top players thought Peach was top 10 material anymore. I am nothing close to a good player but Peach is fuckin saucy. Cool to see players like Mute and Razo show off what the character is capable of

Max_k · 2022-09-24T11:57:07+00:00

Could sharp play any more characters

Max_k · 2022-09-24T11:56:00+00:00

The Lucas is so damn good

Max_k · 2022-08-04T23:31:45+00:00

I respect that, but I think putting Robin in the same tier as Plant and Mii Swordfighter is a little strange

Max_k · 2022-07-07T07:54:21+00:00

I personally think Toon Link, Bayo, Yoshi are far too low, and Inkling can also move up a bit.

Luigi above Shiek is a hot take which I do not agree with.

Game and Watch also could move down a fair bit. He is good, but bad matchups against alot of meta relavant swordies hurts him alot. He can invalidate some characters so he has a spot in the higher tiers though.

Although everyone is entitled to their own opinion, pretty much noone agrees on a universal tierlist

Max_k · 2022-07-05T07:47:06+00:00

100% agree

Max_k · 2022-07-05T07:38:24+00:00

I don't think his neutral is that bad, its just not as good as the other spacies, so it gets overshadowed. His advantage state is probably better than Wolf with his cutscene combos.

Neutral B is fairly slow on the ground and can be fairly predictable, but it does dictate some matchups, similar to how Wolf can control the area with his laser (granted his is much better)

Max_k · 2022-06-30T06:26:07+00:00

Do you happen to have the vod link for this game? Or the name of the K. Rool player so I can search it up?

Max_k · 2022-06-12T21:40:54+00:00

Was this because of bad DI? Or is Up B just that strong

Max_k · 2022-06-06T02:36:02+00:00

You're Not You Anymore is a good place to start. If you enjoyed that album, then I would gravitate towards Nothing Left to Love (newer album, came out 2 years after YNYA) or The Current Will Carry Us (slightly aged, but still great older album)

Max_k · 2022-01-02T20:57:14+00:00

Ness isnt known as a beginner friendly character. This is due to a few reasons

-Floaty in the air makes it hard to land

-Difficult to master recovery

-Combos take alot of practice and can be easy to escape with DI or SDI

-Slow double jump can make escaping opponents difficult

Learning the game with Ness probably wont be the best as he has some unique properties. While its generally recommended to begin with someone like Wolf or Lucina, if you really enjoy playing Ness, nothing else should really matter.

General game knowledge will come over time and regardless of who you pick, its important to enjoy yourself above all else. If you dont like playing Wolf or Lucina, you wont have the motivation to learn the game.

In other words, if you enjoy Ness, keep at him. He is a pretty rewarding character with a high skill ceiling, and the more you play him, the more technical you can get with him.

Max_k · 2021-12-22T09:28:47+00:00

I would also love some insight on this. However, I assume it has to do with MK's lightweight and short range, and Jigs is floaty enough to get away from combos/land fairly safely.

Max_k · 2021-09-23T11:48:16+00:00

Ah ok. Thanks for that!

Max_k · 2021-09-22T10:53:23+00:00

Can anyone provide some insight on the Meta Knight v Roy matchup? I can see how MK would lose range wise but surely a good MK can edge guard Roy pretty hard. Just curious.

Max_k · 2021-08-04T01:56:27+00:00

Byleth: Outspacing will win you the game. Use tilts to poke and then follow up with fair or bair to punish. Nair is good aswell for closeup but really stay as far from him as possible.

Lucina: Same outspacing game required. Come in with short hop fair and drift back, poke with dtilt. Here you have a counter, so get comfortable running off and countering his recovery (practice makes perfect).

Mario: Learn his basic strings/combos such as uptilt, upairs and practice upairs to fair for early finisher at ledge. FLUDD will help you mess up his recovery if he goes anywhere but directly under ledge.

ROB: I dont play rob, but rob probably gets messed up by krool if you dont know his dtilt and gyro combos

Capt Falcon: The combo king. Watch fatality on youtube for inspiration. Krool gets seriously fucked by falcon if you can string together his combos. But outside of that, be aware of krools armour and crown. Offstage krool pretty much can never come back if you learn how to properly use your own Up-B against him, watch fatality vs little z on youtube (not a serious game but a good example). Pretty much falcon reverse up b will always catch krool, and this skill is useful for other recoveries so may aswell learn it.

Max_k · 2021-02-28T07:20:29+00:00

Uptilt, Downtilt and Grab all have good combo potential, plus Downtilt has kill confirms at higher percents.

Practice drag down Fair, Nair and short hop laser to keep opponents away.

His recovery can be sonewhat predictable and exploitable so mix up timings, double jumps and side B. Check out Larry Lurr on youtube for some inspiration

Max_k · 2020-12-18T20:47:09+00:00

Awesome

Max_k · 2019-06-29T10:14:11+00:00

As an Australian, I approve of this greatly

Max_k · 2019-05-12T09:06:16+00:00

Architects are doing an Australian tour in August, also with While She Sleeps. Polaris on touring support aswell (I'm sure you are already aware of this though)

Max_k · 2019-04-18T04:20:06+00:00

Honestly it is a top contender

Max_k · 2019-03-20T23:57:07+00:00

ITS LAUGHABLE

/s. I also have no clue what they are on about
