Reflex's Mega Fun Smash Challenge

Reflex held a tournament this weekend, and I rode up there with rob, moogle, coach, and duchock. The day before the tournament a bunch of people stayed over Prac's house just like they did for G4S4. I got to play a lot of matches with chad, iori, spaceballs, and coach. It was fun, and I think i played about as good as I can. In the tournament, There were no pools, so you kind of had to be good if you wanted to play more than two matches. I had to fight DP, a really good Mario player and then, JMOAN another player from the mid-south power rankings. I also teamed with Rob, and that was fun even though we got quickly dismantled, first by Laijin and Renegade, then by Bloshi and JMOAN. We have never played on teams before, plus we're neither really good at teams to begin with, but those guys are just good. Laijin has gotten pretty good over the past couple of years. Moogle was eliminated by reflex and then JMOAN, and I think those are matches he could have won. It seems like moogle is always one of the top ten players at least, at each tournament, but his results rarely indicate that. Coach and Moogle got fourth in teams out of 18 teams though, so that's cool. They were really close to getting third, just barely losing to XIF and Marty, a double Peach team. I hope they keep teaming, both moogle and coach are getting better, they'll be a money team in no time i think.
Anyway, I'm really learning to tech chase a lot more. With Roy I can tech chase with forward-b and grabs, I need to learn how to do it with other characters. I have to make it a habit just like teching. That shouldn't be too hard. I think once tech-chasing becomes second-nature, I will move to a higher echelon of play. A lot of times I lose simply because I'm given no room to even move because of good tech chasing.
I can notice myself getting better though, and I'm very happy with that
playing against Laijin and especially JMOAN, I've learned that Roy's just not good against sheik. Those needles really fuck him up, plus sheik can combo Roy really easily. I played fox against JMOANS sheik and got him down to 2 stock, and considering my lame fox, i think that's pretty good.
This tournament had free food. that was aweseome.

Improvement Thoughts
One thing that i've got to do is practice better control over my character. I think I'll have to move faster and mess up less if I want to be successful. I play a patient game, but that doesn't mean stop moving. When I play slow, it just makes it easier for the opposition to predict me. I've been playing some falcon and fox recently, and i play a lot better with them when I play really fast. you have to be REALLY fast to play falcon effectively.
Also I just have to be more graceful in my movements. I need to incorporate more wavelanding on ledges and I need to be able to pull off whatever move i need to do at that time.
Also, I'm going to study every character matchup and learn things like how fast they tech roll, how long before they recoever in the air, etc.

My Sheik is terrible, i need to study that.
