There's a reason I don't Smash online.

3DS Friend Code Exchange... and a need for advice by Voyd on 2015-07-19 23:02:00 UTC Reply

Well, I suppose that with a bunch of new(er) faces around, now's as good a time as any to start this again.

If you're comfortable with sharing, list your Mii name, your friend code, and what games you have. Just as an example, I'll share mine.

And on the subject of that last one... I could use some help.

See, I've been playing online, and I am doing... rather poorly. I have played a total of 103 games, 94 of which were 1-on-1.

I've only won 31 times.

In more than two-thirds of all my matches, I get my bony posterior handed to me on a silver platter. I'm best with Ganondorf, Doctor Mario and Little Mac, but considering my success rate? That's not saying much.

And improvement requires knowing what I'm doing wrong. I don't. And because I can only play random matches (I don't know anyone with the 3DS version), there's nobody to tell me.

That is the main reason I started this thread, but if it leads to more online interactions between PPCers, that works too.

What times are good for you?

(Hah hah, "times" like there are multiple times in a week when I can sit down for games.)

I basically have my DS right next to me from about 10am to 11pm.

I'm going to get the 3DS Smash eventually. by doctorlit on 2015-07-21 03:13:00 UTC Reply

I usually wait until games get cheap used at GameStop, but considering how high used copies of Brawl still are, I probably won't wait much longer. I do have a 20% off coupon . . . Anyway, I'll let you know when I get it.

Also, does anyone need/want to do tradeback evolutions in Pokémon? I've pretty much got all I can at the moment, but I don't mind using my game as a work pony for others.

Online Smash is rough, Voyd. It's where the god-tier people play, not mere mortals like you or me. I'd be happy to go a few rounds with you and potentially give you some tips, though.
Since I've already got you, I'll just add eatpraylove for now.
Oh, and I also need to get online with you in Pokémon so I can get your full Friend Safari.

Seriously, people using this tactic merrily avoid everything I throw at them, and there is exactly zip I can do to stop them. Just... dah.
