I started playing at my local community recently, and it has worked out pretty good. My friends, Deltashot1911, Tway, Wind, and MercilessVoid, and I went to a tournament on the 19th. I ended up getting third. I lost to Skynerd and Toast (and probably RvR is he was there) but this is so far my peak in the Sm4sh career. I don't have as much experience as I'd like, but that's all the more reason to try harder next time and to get better.
With the new patch, I'm not going to use Sheik as much, reverting back to Cloud and Link. I'm also picking up Mario and Corrin as secondaries. At this point, I'm split between getting better with my mains, or getting more mains for more options. I've read that to get a better understanding of the fundamentals of Smash, it is better to be good with one Char.
On another side note, I have been "listed" as the best of our group. Tway, a Dark Pit main in my area, has been a little disappointed in his recent plays. He just needs the practice, and he'll get there. I feel for him.
