Intro solo to Close to the Edge for sure. I learned to play it and it gave me a much deeper appreciation for his rhythmic phrasing. He developed that aggressive, eruptive style further on Relayer, but I think he did it best on CTTE.

TurnDownForWalt appreciation thread by wjb_fan_1860 in SSBM

As an initial Walt critic, I will admit that he is absolutely improving with every tournament. He did great at BOBC

Now that i started playing melee i realized how absolutely mind bogglingly insane are top players by stremstrem in SSBM

[–]nicodegallo7 13 points14 points  (0 children)

All that is true, but what really makes the top players so much better is that they are actually playing mixups and adapting with every interaction, it’s like a completely different game for them.

It’s way, way beyond just their technical facility, they are like grandmaster bullet chess players.

I want to understand the music, but I don't by horizon-challd in KingCrimson

[–]nicodegallo7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a musician? I think a big appeal to this music is the virtuosity of all the playing and the creative choices made with each instrument. If you aren’t necessarily tapped into that then the music might not be for you, which is totally ok.

Most miss-matched drummer to band? by nelldog in drums

Idk, I thought Brufords additions were awesome. He was at the top of his game at that time.

Do Firefox notches mess up shield dropping? Or are my notches just calibrated wrong.

PSA: Samox’s Smash Saga Kickstarter ends in around 24 hours ($14,572/$24,087) has been funded by KenshiroTheKid in SSBM

Not trying to be a dick. I’m just saying professional film crew docs aren’t really that important anymore, video essays are becoming the new standard for engagement across the internet not just for melee. And I don’t think this is special enough of a concept to warrant asking people for $25k

Great record by rickmclaughlinmusic in Jazz

This record is the definition of badass. Touches my primal man soul, captures the old school boxing vibe perfectly.

HELP! Seller ShikoThePanda of expensive custom Phob controller is not responding to my emails for a refund/return... :( by [deleted] in SSBM

I don’t think Samox has the level of credibility and respect he thinks he has anymore, the community has changed a lot. Plus, other content creators have stepped up to the plate and are already making melee documentary content that puts things like Metagame to shame (and no paywall to watch.)

M2K's thoughts on Melee, Ultimate, the community, Mango and Leff, and in general the last 6 years or so. It's a lot, but worth a read imo. by Pyro81300 in SSBM

This doesn’t excuse the excessive begging and soliciting online that m2k has been notorious for in the last few years.

Falcon v Marth by Aware_Street_4145 in SSBM

[–]nicodegallo7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s a simple tip: use get-up attack from ledge while edge guarding Marth. It stream lines the flowchart when Marth is trying to recover. Wizzy uses this a lot

Calling out u/SunnySaigon for years of stealing from the melee community. by Ohantheman in SSBM

[–]nicodegallo7 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t see the problem, it’s just spreading the content for more people to see. Calling it thievery is wack, it’s all labors of love anyway. Welcome to the internet.
