DREPHEN

Synonymous with Sheik and Melee in the Midwest for a decade, Welcome Drephen to Almost Heaven 7🌄

@aMSaRedYoshi Welcome to the SmashDads

【ご報告】 本日1月26日、無事に第一子が誕生しました！🎉 男の子です👶 妻と子が世界一頑張ってくれました。よう頑張ったなぁ...ありがとう、ありがとう...😭 母子ともに健康です。これから家族で力を合わせ、健やかに育てていきます。今後ともどうぞよろしくお願いします。

Recovery has been going well, but unfortunately I have to deal with the reality of dealing with ER Medical bills. I have been contemplating against this, but friends of mine have encouraged me to do so. If you can even just Like/RT, I'd appreciate it <3 gofundme.com/f/support-john…

Not going to say anything controversial this year, all I want is for people to keep playing Melee. My dreams aren't as vivid as they once were. But that doesn't mean that they are colorless or filled with regret. The next generation of players will be remarkable and I can't wait.

@KoDoRiNSSB Wishing the best for you.

Retiring from melee because my appendix can't handle any of this anymore

@JahRidin Congratulations! As a fellow smashdad, if you ever need advice or just someone to talk to hit me up.

Ironically, "Free Luigi" could be my last tournament since I will be dad of a lil baby around May. I'm excited to see my EU friends one more time this weekend. Thank you a lot, it was great to be part of this journey and bringing my contribution to the Melee community ❤️

@VideoGameHstry It isn't the best game of the series, but the answer is Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

What video game is this?

@Just_PGH "Why are we here?"

Incredible goodwill finds

I wish I got to talk about melee with Ash. The memories you make and the moments you have really are invaluable. I'm thankful for all that I have been given up to this point and I urge everyone to be kind to one another.

@whoiskingmomo_ Someone with the tag "Spot" ran and notified security asap. Shoutouts to that guy and whoever else helped out.

Really hope that person in the venue is okay. I'm really proud of all the Smashers turning off all the crts. In case that is what caused this incident Everyone acted quickly and got help, and Kalahari responded fast and did their job.

@trailsucks @missedconnecs @bluerosetori Very similar to my neutral game.

@missedconnecs @bluerosetori @Drephen this is cheesy af

@SuperSmashCon I understand that changes do happen, but it takes A LOT for me to go to tournaments nowadays. A lot of mine and other's time and effort. I will have a hard time believing that this decision was made when the Supernova dates were announced.I never asked to be a part of a PR stunt.

This is the Supernova 2025 Tournament Schedule.

@MedzSSBM Stop stealing my strats

i don't think i could ever campaign for invitational events. i would feel horrible asking the community to spend money on me like that. i'll instead try to go to the ohio event and qualify with my own skill 💪

@SDJ_SSBM I'd appreciate it if you didn't use my name to drag other people down.

yo how tf is rapmonster not going to japan when soonsay is still losing to drephen

@Drephen @OhgirlNC How?

Never really worried about what my kid’s schools were teaching them until my son came home and called something “indigo”

$100 BOUNTY I need help with Cyborg and plugging it in for GameCube. This pic shows everything set up; Cyborg, RetroPad32, and RJ45 for GC (Ethernet into GC cord). However, the RetroPad32 currently doesn't work.

@FictionIRL My melee revelation was that if you charge smash attacks and you get hit while charging, then the knockback on YOU increases. I think its cool because it makes it riskier to charge attacks.

Turns out that despite so many years and so much melee knowledge, I never knew that every single charge frame of a smash attack increases the knockback by a pretty sizeable portion. If you can fit even a couple frames of charge in you're already killing earlier
