Hey, wassup, I'm Shade. I absolutely love SSBB, especially since now it gives small-town people like me a chance to be a part of the Smash community. I plan on going pro someday, but right now I'm just a n00b who strives to improve. Though I believe everyone has the potential to overcome this level of play, people really need to think outside the box to see how good they really are. I'm gonna get better, and I try to get a little better every day.

Mains
Without a doubt, my main is and will always be my trusty Bowser. I have quite a handful of secondaries, but I won't tell what they are to keep people from counterpicking me so easily.

About Me
The name "Shade" came from the first video game character I ever designed. Yeah, whenever I fufill my dream of working for Nintendo (or Square-Enix), Shade's going places, I'm sure of it.

As of right now I've never played in a professional smash tournament but I've been DYING to enter one...only problem is there are no tournament sites nearby. I'd host my own, but I don't think there are enough smashers around where I live for one. :( oh well...hopefully I can find an online tournament to enter.

As far as professionals, Gimpy is my fav. He's not the reason I use Bowser, but I would like for him to accept me one day as someone who filled his shoes as the best Bowser mainer of Brawl. I'd also love to fight his newly chosen Shiek main.

Aftermath Dynasty
Like I said, I'm an ex member of the Aftermath Dynasty, and quitting isn't a decision I regret. See, what happened was that we were in a crew battle with this crew called wtfcrew, and I was the starter. So anyways, we fought, and I got my butt kicked by Tatsu, their starter. I was really upset about it too, so I made a big deal about it back on the AD's proboards. Flowel, the representative from the crew that came there to challenge us, messaged me saying that I sucked. I was pretty upset, I mean, who wouldn't be? I asked him why he said that, and he then replied "Dude, it's not just you. Your whole crew sucks, I suck, and so does my crew. I mean, we may be good compared to people around here but if you go on places like AllisBrawl they'll rip you to shreds." It clicked right then: We're not going to get any better because we just aren't willing to accept that we need to! So yeah, I tried to explain this to the other guys, but most of them wouldn't hear any of it. I had to endure tons of PA, insults, and CUSS WORDS LIKE CRAZY from some of them, because they didn't see themselves as being weak. Eventually (I was kind of provoking this) they banned me, so JtM, Xtrme, and I all quit (even though I technically didn't have a choice) to start our crew, named Papercut. We are still avid supporters of the theory that you have to accept that you aren't the best in order to obtain the initiative to try and be the best. The ADD (as I used to call them back when we were enemies, but I'm too attached to that name to stop) still does not believe the way we do, and up until recently we've had to put up with all sorts of insults, including being called "emo faggots", "worthless pieces of sh!t", and (my personal favorite cuz my self-esteem's too high to take these personally) "Mr. Dark Magic AntiChrist". However, I've now made peace with the guy who said these against me. It's all good, even if I think they're philosophies are still wrong, they have just as much of a right to them as we do ours.

My Crew
After quitting the AD, JtM, Xtrme, and I all joined together to created a new crew known as Papercut, because papercuts are both fast and extremely painful. Well, that and we get to use the Linkin Park song Papercut for our theme song :). Anyways, we're now 4-man crew. So, who's the 4th member? It's a local friend of mine, 63N!E (read as Genie), but I usually refer to him as MJ. After he joined, Papercut became a half-Alabama (me and MJ), half-Washington (JtM and Xtrme) crew. We don't plan on getting any more members unless it becomes absolutely necessary. We're also allied with a crew called wtfcrew, with one of their members, Flowel being an editor here. They have already challenged the AD and won due to the AD forfeiting. Also, I'm trying to get Papercut into a crew battle with a clan known as Crayola Beth, who I know of on AllisBrawl due to being friends with one of their members (Sushi). If you wanna challenge our crew or apply for being a new member (not too sure you'll get the job, though), drop a line on my talk page and then I can let you into the site once you've made an account. We've got tight security over there so you HAVE to let me, JtM, or Xtrme know on our talk pages that you wanna join.

Play Style
I prefer the basic 3-5 stock 1-on-1 match with no items. My favorite stages are the Battlefield, Shadow Moses Island, Lylat Cruise and Spear Pillar. Of course, Spear Pillar isn't used in serious matches, but Shadow Moses Island is. I honestly do not see how some people think the walls make it unfair. They're destructible, don't hurt you, and can save you from an KO, not to mention make it easier to rack up damage or perform combos. Oh well...it's a free country.

In terms of how I actually fight, you'll need to add me and see for yourself. But I do have one advantage over most opponents: I am immune to the effects of Wi-Fi lag. That's right...IMMUNE. The slowdowns may mess up your fancy combo or cause you to push the wrong button, but for me, it's all smooth sailing. It doesn't even phase me...well, except for MAJOR lag that like freezes the game. You can't NOT be affected by that.

Also, I'm ridiculously infamous (around here, anyways) for inventing and making regular use of a mindgame called CopyKat. What I'll do is use your main, your favorite costume, and (if on wifi) your screen name. Sometimes I'll even edit my taunts to match yours and maybe (if I've fought you enough before) use your tactics. To be honest, I don't see the big deal of the technique, but the guys in the ADD (again, I love that nickname too much to stop) are fascinated by it.

Shade Challenge
My own original challenge! This one is a little less strict on the rules but no matter how you adjust it anything that will help you will help the enemy!

Rules:

1. The player may select any character he or she wishes to play as.

2. Your opponents are a CPU level 9 C. Falcon, Luigi, and Bowser. These three are on one team, with you being by yourself.

3. The rules are set to a 4 stock match. Friendly fire is off and so are handicaps.

4. You may have only the following items turned on and you may have the frequency set to whatever you want. (No items are required, though):
 * Smart Bomb
 * Bob-bomb
 * Blast Box
 * Deku Nut
 * Soccer Ball

5. The stage selection is up to you. However, these are the stages that are not allowed:


 * 75 m

 * Mario Bros.
 * Flat Zone 2
 * Warioware, Inc.
 * Summit
 * Spear Pillar
 * All Melee stages except for Yoshi's Island
 * All Custom Stages

6. To win, defeat all enemies.

Winner gets....um....the satisfaction of winning! Yeah, I'm cheap like that.

Ground Attacks
Normal Smash Other
 * Neutral attack - 3-hit blade strike
 * Dash attack: Creates a meteor flame-esque red aura around him, but it doesn't do fire damage.
 * Strong Side - Longer single stike blade
 * Strong Up - Orb of light that does many little hits. Similar to Zelda's Up Smash.
 * Strong Down - Small ring of fire appears and quickly vanishes
 * Side Smash - Energy blade strike similar to the jump attack from Zelda games
 * Up Smash - Steps back and creates a giant icicle that thrusts out of the ground and increases in size depending on charge level.
 * Down Smash - a large, all around slash
 * Ledge attack - Flips onto the stage with a drop kick.
 * 100% ledge attack - Jumps off ledge and headbutts ahead.
 * Floor/trip attack - Quickly levitates off the ground and releases a shockwave at his feet.

Aerial Attacks

 * Neutral aerial - Creates a water barrier and attacks much like Lucas's Nair, only in terms of animation he does not spin around and only stands there.
 * Forward aerial - Releases a very short ranged energy blast from his hand
 * Back aerial - Reaches out and a speaker appears that releases a sound induced shockwave. Very high knockback.
 * Down aerial - An imitation of Toon Link's dair, which, unlike Link's, is a stall-then-fall.
 * Up aerial - Fires a wave of small and very short ranged energy blasts.

Grabs & Throws
While his grab does have significant range, it is not a tether recovery.
 * Pummel - Small shock to the opponent.
 * Forward Throw - Throws opponent downward, and when the bounce back up he blasts them.
 * Back Throw - Elbows his opponent in the stomach to knock the wind out of them and quickly re-appears behind them to slash them.
 * Down Throw - Brings opponent up and throws them onto icicles below.
 * Up Throw - Throws opponent upward and crashes up into them, surrounded by red aura.

Special Moves

 * Neutral B - Creates a flaming barrier that damages and protects. Does not reflect projectiles like Nayru's Love, and is a single hit that pushes enemies back.
 * Side B - Kind of like a combination of Snake's missle, IC's Ice Shot, and Bowser's flame breath. Creates a path of flames that you control like snakes missle, only this hugs the ground and you can only make it go left or right. This attack get's weaker the farther you go, but you can control it to go back and forth between a small area to inflict heavier damage on that area. The trail behind the frontmost flame does not last very long.
 * Down B - Summons Rhyme's Noise form to encircle him momentarily. Can be used in the air to increase horizontal movement, but only once. Lasts for about a half a second.
 * Up B - Releases Mr. Mew to jump upwards and attack with a claw slash. If used in the air, it works like a tether recovery, and Mr. Mew will simply stretch out to reach back to Neku after grabbing the stage.
 * FINAL SMASH: Endgame - This is Lucario's FS with a twist. Rather than simply turning left or right, Neku actually moves left or right across the top of the screen. Also, this FS is significantly stronger and grows in power as time passes. Also, when Neku lands, a large Reaper decal appears behind him that does decent knockback.
