I would have been interested in playing with you again this last weekend, but I was traveling and out of town. We'll definitely have to play again soon.

Too late for me tonight, but like @HannibalBarca3 I might be able to play tomorrow or some other day this week.

Id have liked to have played if you could have played earlier, but at this point Ive been on Elite Smash playing for around an hour and twenty minutes and should probably stop to make dinner.

Would there be a better and more reliable way of reaching out to you besides posting in this thread and hoping you see it? Do we have a CE Smash Discord or Signal channel, or something else like that?

I mostly just lurk this thread lol. I'm usually down if someone is down to play, I was just finishing somethings around the house, but I think rideshort has a discord since he's invited his discord friends to play before.

Yeah, it was my fault. I posted and when you were ready after thirty minutes I was needing to wind down for the night and accomplish other things. Its okay though. Im sure well find some time soon, maybe this evening or over the weekend.

Focusing on Elite Smash probably isnt good for my soul lol

I never do Elite Smash now. Its just not very fun in this game. At least in the prior one I knew what I would get every time and could take it or leave it, but this one lets people set stupid rules (usually quite rare but still) and it doesnt just let you get a global rank with points but deliberately has a threshold for being elite that is kind of trash.

I haven't played Elite in years lol. I usually just play with people here since we've been doing this for a few years now. I used to go to locals but I stopped going to them.

But daddy brings up a good point, I've never touched smash 4 but watching streamers play it during it's last week the system did look better than Ults.

Also I can play rn

Got my internet upgraded recently so I might want to start playing again soon. The main issue is that I dont ever have time to do it. I have some free time but trying to be left alone for significant amounts of time and use the main tv where the switch is plugged in is just hard.

Im burned out! Starting to make some silly mistakes. Still, great games though Hannibal, as always! Thanks for playing. Really enjoyed our matches, especially the earliest ones with ZSS and Lucario. Some cool KOs on both sides.

By the way, have I told you that next semester Ill be teaching a Classical Political Philosophy class? Thought youd be interested in that given that you have the gamertag Xenophon.

GGs, that was a great time. Seeing Isabelle's umbrella clank with Seph's sword is so fucking stupid but it works in this game lmao.

That's pretty awesome. I'm more into the military side of things so I know Xenophon from his writings on the march of the mercenaries of Kyros the Younger, his military writings on horsemanship and other things, and the Cyropaedia. But Ancient Greek philosophy sounds cool from what I've read on it.

Isabelle is admittedly a tough cookie for me, mostly because Im not sure how to deal with that projectile move and I get hit by her command grab a little too often. I need to do a lot of dusting off of my Sephiroth. I think Ive been so focused on practicing with ZSS in Elite Smash that Ive failed to use my secondaries very much. I got a little better with him the more matches we played though.

It always shocks me how fast Marth is. His range and damage output are terrifying. Had some trouble with those matches, though I think I was using my lower level secondary characters when your Marth was out.

That's pretty awesome.

But Ancient Greek philosophy sounds cool from what I've read on it.

Sadly, my military history is very spotty since I focus on political history and political philosophy. Im sure everything Xenophon says is pretty valuable though. Ill draw up a Syllabus thatll focus more on the bigger names in classical political philosophy, like Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, and Augustine.

By the way, if I had to choose, I think your nicest KO of the night was a really well-placed offstage neutral B with Lucario. It was excellently placed and caught me off guard.

My favorite and best KO of the night, I think, was one of those down air KOs with ZSS at PS2. I remember landing that one that won me the match suddenly, even though I was slightly behind. You were recovering under me and I went for it. I also landed a non-suicide dair that killed you while you were wall clinging! Crazy stuff.

Sorry for the late response, I was very busy the whole day yesterday.

Isabelle is admittedly a tough cookie for me, mostly because Im not sure how to deal with that projectile move and I get hit by her command grab a little too often. I need to do a lot of dusting off of my Sephiroth. I think Ive been so focused on practicing with ZSS in Elite Smash that Ive failed to use my secondaries very much. I got a little better with him the more matches we played though.
She's like a match up check. She has some good things going on for her like her jab which can combo into downsmash at past certain percents depending on the weight of the character. Like Seph, I think, weights the same as Pika so Isabelle can get a kill confirm on him earlier than a heavier character like Donkey Kong. But she's also slow and floaty and can struggle finishing off characters at times, I think your best bet is to play keepaway.

Sadly, my military history is very spotty since I focus on political history and political philosophy. Im sure everything Xenophon says is pretty valuable though. Ill draw up a Syllabus thatll focus more on the bigger names in classical political philosophy, like Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, and Augustine.
Yes, very much so. Modern academics on Greek military history are starting to pay more attention to what he says and his criticism on the way most Greek armies operate, in particular Athens. It's pretty telling when the reforms he proposes are implemented by the Macedonians which didn't go particulary well for the Greeks. Modern studies on Sparta are also taking his word over that of later sources like Plutarch which has helped dispel a lot on the Spartan Mirage.

By the way, if I had to choose, I think your nicest KO of the night was a really well-placed offstage neutral B with Lucario. It was excellently placed and caught me off guard.

My favorite and best KO of the night, I think, was one of those down air KOs with ZSS at PS2. I remember landing that one that won me the match suddenly, even though I was slightly behind. You were recovering under me and I went for it. I also landed a non-suicide dair that killed you while you were wall clinging! Crazy stuff.
Thanks. Your usage of dair is a gamble but it pays off pretty well a lot of the time. Kinda reminds me of Marss playstyle where he does flashy kills with dair.
