Isai(C.Falcon) vs Darkrain(C.Falcon)

[Ariphilus]

The techchases & chaingrabs makes this isai look like a mew2king lol

[DrPhr0]

I spent more time trying to figure out what that tag said rather than focusing on the match.

[AquaFox89]

Was jump cancelling not discovered in 2005?

[Owndropper]

@AquaFox89 the jump cancelled up smash at 1:26 proves that it obviously was

[AquaFox89]

@Owndropper No jump cancel grabs though.

[SSBMTonberry]

The good old days when DI didn't exist and everyone teched towards you <3

[lonewander3931]

isai and darkrain uses the same playing style it like watching the double dragons brothers fight each other.

[DoGmAnGuY1758]

wow, isai missed lots o spike opportunities 

[tkxl777]

but then isai is old

[2kason2]

lol o

[tdivv41]

it looks like isai is still fighting like he's in ssb

[geraldtpokemon]

@tdivv41

lol i feel that way sometimes

especially after playing ssb for a bit

[loffesenior]

This was Isai warming up for a real game of ssb

[zBiyte]

this match is all wrong!

isai isnt wearing isai suit

darkrain isnt wearing darkrain suit

[KeythsSoul]

blue gay falcon -.-

[iChocolateAddict]

cool Darkrain in red

[Kukzzzz]

This was Darkrains first tournament, and he's been rising ever since! Keep representing KCMO!

[KingCaboose]

It doesn't matter if you're good at Melee.

Isai will still win at Smash Bros 64

[Getaro]

should have been a falcon quadruple;

isai and jeff vs darkrain and m2k

[Garethaxz]

@Getaro there was a scar & hax vs darkrain and ss

[Iamjason8]

2:42 - 2:43

Falcon- OOO!

[IEatGlu]

isai = unfair. such a beast

[Grolironde]

Isai is wobbling.

With Falcon !

[xXSidBoyXx]

Dude in your title put the color next to the players name so people can tell whos playing

[thepwnnerofnoobs]

@xXSidBoyXx isai always uses a mel tag. he's blue. darkrain is red for some reason

[likemy]

I don't think isai used a single knee until the end, lol

[Tsukasa009]

which one is which? great match though

[CenterMaster]

isai is the blue falcon and darkrain is the red 1

[SSBMForTehWin]

2:16. Lol.

[kamsalad]

darkrain is way worse than isai... lol

he doesnt predict or techchase at all

[xAfterDawnx]

this is old (4-5 years old)

darkrain would destroy isai now.

[Fiction52]

evidence? lol

[xAfterDawnx]

uh darkrain is a better falcon now? he's the best falcon (aside from maybe mango) in the current metagame and he's smart as hell. his spacing is amazing and you probably wouldn't know it until you played him. that being said, I'm talking about if the current darkrain played what isai was like a while ago, seeing how isai doesn't play melee anymore and hasn't for a while.

[JohnWittle]

He lives about 7 minutes from the genesis venue, and he sat at home playing yahoo poker with other people on smashboards to spite them instead of going lol.

[crazeemeel]

i still think SS is better then darkrain

[xAfterDawnx]

that's cause youz a scrub

[crazeemeel]

until darkrain comes as close to beating mango as SS did (and he won a set) I stand by my statement

[xAfterDawnx]

what? ss taking a set off mango's fox? then getting 6-0'd in grand finals? LOL

[someguycalledjizz]

@xAfterDawnx the same fox that consistently beat Armada in friendlies at pound 4?

That's quite an achievement if you ask me, and is something that darkrain hasn't done.

[xAfterDawnx]

are you honestly comparing mango's fox now to back in 08 or so?

[someguycalledjizz]

@xAfterDawnx yes, actually.

He was just as dominant then as he was now, it really doesn't matter what character he uses, as long as it is either fox, falco, puff or falcon he's the best in the world. As far as I know only 3 people have taken a set off him when he uses these characters, and darkrain is not one of them, but ss is.

[20krib]

@crazeemeel at grabbing sure

[ZeroMelfice]

@crazeemeel SS Is a fuckin beast.

[theZunari]

@xAfterDawnx

Bwahahaha

[JustKita]

Not in Smash 64.

[fpsanth]

we'll find out at pound! =)

[BuddhaLovax420x]

@xAfterDawnx no one can destroy Isai! SLAP YOUR SELF FOR YOUR IGNORANCE!!!!!

[CharlieChan29]

@xAfterDawnx

Isai doesn't even play. No one would truly know. For all we know, Isai could've become the SS with Super Isai Mode. x3

[xAfterDawnx]

@CharlieChan29 isai does play, go watch some recent scar vs isai matches

[xYogurt]

@xAfterDawnx If Isai still played Melee with the same consistency as 64, he would take darkrain to lunch.

[baldomero55]

pfff see the year man to damn old now is diferent

[highwatermark25]

LMAO at the double knee at 2:16

[SKStylez]

isai got a lil ken in him here

[frankhong]

2006 is a long time ago....

[kamsalad]

darkrain is nub

[MoofinMusician]

isai is too good

[DaGarebear]

Would be nice if you can tell us which Falcon is which..

[cross25011990]

isai nearly always take MEL , if he play's falcon^^

[kamsalad]

the one who wins is isai, obviously

[sammyboy117XD]

this was back when darkrain wasn't that good very much.  but yeah, he's a monster now being like about 4-5 years later! Darkrain FTW! :D! Isai is good too!

[oscarmalherbe]

darkrain johns lol

[sneakybeard]

at 2:41 you can hear Falcon say fuck when he dies

[NeoTStyle]

I lol'd.

[sworly]

hahahaha

[secretagentarkane]

i forogot the red one was isai?

[QuasiiMado]

damn. the falcon came a long way since these guys but mad props to the pioneers anyways.

[starfox300]

but you dont know who is who

[TehTechnoGuy]

I need to actually start pressing A after I grab someone.

[LegendOfOddler]

They'll be able to DI easier if you do....if they have a reasonable knowledge of the game.

[TehTechnoGuy]

Huh, never thought about that. Good point, it's just that I don't rack up enough damage when I grab, I just immediately throw.

[bigdaddyganon]

isai was just toying with him

[llDEFYll]

is this really them? wtf

[InfiniteGXT]

yes, this is from like 2005

[sweetxignorance]

This is from an Alabama tournament in 2004, I think. That was before Darkrain played black Falcon, as you can plainly see. :P

[chocochris]

darkrain started getting desperate just constantly kneeing i would be too if i was going up against isai

[darkmusician]

Almost went the whole match without a sweet spot knee and still raped.

[Amocoru]

So fucking funny to watch isai spend the whole fucking match trying to chaingrab/tech chase while DR tries to get something started for a combo. This old videos are awesome lol

[Wendiesel]

I killed Scar.

haha, wuv you 'man'

[flyingbigm]

whats isai's tag mean?

[Alkaidism]

It's for a girl he likes. "Melissa"

[starfox300]

what really?

[Alkaidism]

Yea, one of my AL friends hangs out with her once in a while.

[jays0nn]

I wish there is a SS vs Darkrain sets =(

[Scidadle]

Genesis....

[xx0Rain0xx]

tbh i was rootin for Darkrain just cuz Isai was only doin UThrow

[goateeguy11221122]

chaingrab pwnage

[NEIAMelee]

Reading old comments on this video are fun.

[AguyNamedHorse]

zzzzz

Isai was playing with him whole game, this has to be old since dark rain isnt playing agressive like he usually does.

[smashbrosmaniac]

dude this is old as hell. lol

[xAfterDawnx]

2003

[dakirbydude]

are you being serious? i'm in huntsville :O and i never heard about this...

[TheManaLord]

SOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOLD

[Sliq111]

This definitely isn't Darkrain vs. Isai, and if it is, it is a very old vid, probably 2002.

[InfiniteGXT]

yes its hella old

[Strongbad338guy]

2003

[ItMustBeFate1]

yikes, isa destroyed him 0.o

[pezai]

if u tol us which falcon is who that would help a lot

[InfiniteGXT]

Isai always uses that same name tag and both of them always use those colors. Unless youre unfamiliar with the game you should be able to recognize them both right away. But if not Isai is the Blue and Darkrain is the red

[papermarkis]

Actually, Darkrain always uses Black now.

[Strongbad338guy]

ya mangz darkrain uses black.

this is fucking old.

[carmel0anthony]

wow darkrain is awesome i love his play style.

[passiveMenis]

What play style is that? suck?

[carmel0anthony]

not suck just how he grabs alot u dont see that from other falcons its different.

[RedArashi]

That was Isai doing the grabbing and tech chasing btw.

[Strongbad338guy]

That seems like darkrain's playstyle to me, and I play him relatively regularly >_>

[RedArashi]

Show him the match and ask him yourself then. Plus, Isai uses the tag MEL when he plays.

[Strongbad338guy]

lol I'm sure he'd love to watch his own match... but if you're right about the MEL thing then there really is no doubt, is there? My mistake :P

[IndigoR]

Isai is so patient.

[yrsmilekillsme]

ahhh 2:16, my head was so close to exploding.

[KAsevenfive]

Rofl @ 2:16

[prtorrential101]

i dont get it. wat happened at 2:16

[TOYD3]

What do you mean? Nothing happened at 2:16. They both missed their knees.

[prtorrential101]

that was a reply to someone else's comment i forgot who though. they said somethin else that happened at 2:16 besides the 2 missin their knees and i told them i didnt get wat happened

[byakuya32]

lmao Darkrain's DI in this game is horrendous! Isai is too good.

[FalcnPlayr]

If you didn't notice, this match is really old >____>.

[papermarkis]

People are taking this vid seriously? Come on, Darkrain plays nothing like that today. He'd either be an even match or better than Isai today considering that they go to the same tournaments and darkrain always places higher.

[HiddenTriagram]

Yeah cause Isai tends to go against even higher level players, besides he even said he like the original far more and rarely plays melee now.

[SputnickGX]

duz isai play brawl now??

[HiddenTriagram]

no.

[BHLMR0]

Isai said himself that he doesn't like melee so he never takes it seriously. It's still pretty hilarious how Isai still does so well when he doesn't even try.

[BlueFoxXT]

He generally tries in teams. Although, he doesn't play often still. Last weekend he teamed with Lovage and was like "we gotta get at least third" and they did. Then he broke out 64 in the back yard and raped.

[rebaz]

in real life that guy is still too good.

[Shaokii]

lol

[trentyq]

i swear i hate when people say fake isai plays that mel tag sometimes jeez

[psychehaha]

is it just me or did isai just 3-stock darkrain using only 1 knee the entire match?

[kwadw0]

lol fake?

[Hornilope]

Technically every character can moonwalk, its just that some characters' are so small that its completely useless

[SWFfear4]

I don't care if they can moonwalk. What are you trying to prove by dragging on this argument? good day.

[InfiniteGXT]

technically you started it >_>

[SWFfear4]

And I made my point a long time ago. Being told that one or two more character can Moonwalk (which they can, but not to a useful extent) doesn't change my point or the validity of it.

[InfiniteGXT]

First of all 7 out of 26 is almost a third of the roster. I would call that slightly significant in the least. Second of all you are the one who brought it up and then turned around and said you dont care. We they were just saying you were wrong and continuing on the discussion. Its not like its about you or anything.

[SWFfear4]

Ok fine. But lets just be realistic for a moment and realize that the only character who actually gets recognized for moonwalking is CF. I simply responded to a claim which said "most characters can do it" which is clearly false. And I stand by my statement that I don't care if other characters can because we all know that only CF players really utilize it on a consistent basis.

[InfiniteGXT]

Thats true. It is pretty useless.

[SWFfear4]

Wouldn't it be awesome though if everybody could do it? Melee would by far be the silliest game ever. Not like it already isn't, but with universal Moonwalking...I wouldn't be able to watch a single match without laughing!

[FatRiceBoi]

Melee is quite a good game compared to it's newer counter part now. It's actually a good game overall, atleast it has depth, also, Link would probably use moon walking too but, I don't know, I havn't seen a Link player utilizing it much.. =/

[abelign1991]

wow i was thinking darkrain was the blue falcon the entire time.

b/c i see darkrain mostly using chaingrabbing mindgames,

but i guess it was isai! i love that kid haha

[777SasukeUrahara777]

this should be called isai vs. undeveloped darkrain. coz he plays nothing like this now!!!

[kaimisawesome]

oh isai you and your mind games

[flame6753]

how do you do that sliding thing with captain falcon that the pros always do?

[jjjintheusa]

'Scalled wavedashing, son. Look it up.

[flame6753]

no, not that. I'm pro with Falco. I'm talking about that other thing captain falcon does when he looks like he does a moonwalk.

[plw5xkpk0bg]

if u rlookin at his backward slide thats called moonwalking a as u can say more effiecnt way than wavedashing check out SS and he does it alot u can put it in so much good uses as for example if ur oppopnenet is haning on a ledge moonwalk backward and ur fair it shud hit the opponeent also giving captain falcon momentum for a high UP B i would reccoment it but i find it hard to use for me ._.

[gkrackerr]

it's not exactly more efficient than wavedashing. In actuality it doesn't have that wide of a scope of uses. but it does look mad sexy when falcon does it

[jjjintheusa]

That is moonwalking. Try it. Most characters can do it.

[SWFfear4]

wrong. Pretty much only CF, Link and Yoshi can do Moonwalks with noticable results.

[jjjintheusa]

Uhm, falco and peach?

[SWFfear4]

two more...total of 5...out of 26...still not "most"

[crimson35124]

fox can moonwalk as well. check out silent wolf

[crimson35124]

also mewtwo. check out taj

[fa5t89]

when ure talking about zhegandi(or what the vid is called) that is no moonwalk but @1 i thought wtf a mw^^

[pokefan1236]

i knew c.falcon would win

[Hornilope]

FALCON PUNCH

[brucenatelee]

Don't you have to delay the thirk A attack to not do the multi-punch? I just got the game back in July, not enough time to master any one character based on what I've seen (though my brother can already do 4 multishines).

[gregchips2390]

yeh its called the gentle men. not difficult to master just get the timing between pressing A.

[hidingturtle]

isai's a g

[StarFireFalconX]

who won? Which are Darkrain and Isai? They didn't put who is who in the title.

[aznslimdude206]

Blue one is Isai.

[StarFireFalconX]

thanks

[2MuchBamF]

mel is also isai

[gregchips2390]

Mel or Malva is Isai's tag online for ssb64. He uses it sometimes in melee.

[DF2K]

Isai is better but he could be a lot better now. Darkrain is ridiculous.

[darksyde3000]

My god, this video is so hilariously bad in comparison to now. I realize it's hideously old and such, but it's so funny to watch Darkrain spam poorly spaced knees and to tech towards Isai over and over again. haha

[sinharvester01]

"My god, this video is so hilariously bad in comparison to now. I realize it's hideously old and such, but it's so funny to watch Darkrain spam poorly spaced knees and to tech towards Isai over and over again. haha"

It's called mind games you idiot. And I bet either one of them could whip you hard; both back then and now.

[darksyde3000]

Hahah, it's not mindgames, it's just not good playing. Nothing about spamming badly spaced attacks and teching in the same direction is mindgames. I'm not mocking either player, it's just funny how much gameplay has improved. Both players are extremely good now, especially Darkrain. What relevance does my playing have to do with my observation? I don't understand why everyone has to take every comment so personally.

[Faeness]

It's not bad just...it's not as good as they are now. How's that. Fact is Darkrain has improved drastically and Isai...well...Isai is still Isai with his sandbagging. :P

[trentyq]

back in 06 isai was clearly the better falcon but now darkrain is just way to beast

[ManOnFire100]

are u dumbs the one who won here was darkrain.. capt falcon was the red and purple

[originalph00tbag]

huh? Isai is the one with the "mel" tag. That's always Isai.

[bloteshame]

who cares if this is old? old videos of isai are better than new ones anyway, cuz he doesn't try in singles anymore (only in crew battles and teams)

[drunkkunmonkey]

such an oooooolllllllllld vid

[MoogleDemon]

Damn too many chainthrows
