Has anyone heard of a DK player named Bum? He's from NYC and he supposedly has the greatest DK ever. But I can't find videos of his DK anywhere! I want to see what he does that makes him so amazing. Has anyone ever seen one of his matches? Bum knocked FORWARD out of a New York tournament and got 1st a couple weeks ago. I already knew he was good, but that's just crazy. Forward. I'm not on the Hub so I can't go there for matches. But I really want to see a few of his vids or something.

Not necessarily. Bum could've been beaten by KoreanDJ or Mew2King. It all depends on which of the top 3 got knocked to losers and had to fight (and beat) Bum in the round preceding Loser's Finals. |

Where did this guy come from, and using DK, WTF, he must have mastered his character completely. |

He's NYC only, he doesn't travel at all. But I think he's going to a MD/VA tourney soon.

Now everyone's going to start using DK, and he's going to be moved up the tier list like I always said he should be. |

Good sheet @ Bum. I remember looking around the Atlantic North boards a while ago at Smashboards. He was ranked 15th best in the region, and he placed second to KDJ at some other fairly large (although certainly smaller than this) tournament. I support DK's move up the tier list, as it means I have one more character I can theoretically have tier johns for. Although I do somewhat doubt this will mean a huge increase in DK players. You could say he will end up like BS, but BS had vids that came out fairly shortly after his great showing - if vids are released it could happen I suppose (they are MLG's vids after all), but other stuff has happened to other characters (Wobbles for ICs comes to mind) and for the most part there hasn't been a huge increase in the number of IC players. Until I see vids, I'm going to remain skeptical over the the overall outcome of Bum's recent success. For all we know, he just might be an amazing player that uses DK - sorta like Chu using Pichu at tournaments in MD/VA not so long ago and consistently placing 1st/2nd. Sure people were excited to see Pichu's "potential unleashed" but they soon released that Chu was the player, and that CHu > many. My 2 cents. Edit: As I said "OMG 2GUD @ Bum". I'm not trying to lessen his acheivement, just being skeptical over the long term consequences. |

I'll most likely never pick up DK, He doesn't fit my style, can't be too flashy with him from what I've seen. But I have been gravitating from the flashy over mindgames style of my play as of late. Mindgames PWN Tech Skill, it took long enough but I finally figured that out. Still, I'll try to be flashy+Smart, can't abandon my roots completely. yacht, but back to bum, the cats crazy if he second best in NYC, and strictly uses DK, what's next, a unstoppable Ness main ?! |

I'm sorry JS, your like the only flashy DK I've seen, yours is pretty cool IMO. Those vids were pretty fun to watch all the craziness you were doing with DK. |

thanks. I got some good feedback from the DK boards on smashboards as well. Lots of people say I have a weird style but they liked it. I have to become more fluent with my grab combos though. I get them every time on flux, but was having trouble with aaron.

yacht Sparrow pretty much pwns me with his DK most of the time, unless I am really on... But he is very flashy and pulls off some insane poop, he is so comfortable with him now it's crazy! |

After all I have read, I would almost have to guess Bum would take that match... |
