He has come to catch his prey and settle his debt once and for all.
-Fighting Mii Team: Use forward/up-smashes and grabs. You'll want to rely on items.
-Master/Crazy Hand & Master Giant/Edges: Use up-airs; you have great chances of getting 3-groups of turnips. Use forward/back-airs if you're far away. Charge an up-smash between transitions (or use the tree), and pocket the projectiles!
-Master Beast: Use side-B and forward/back-airs. If you shield the stomp attack, use forward-smash.
-Master Fortress: Neutral-air the beam enemies, grab the Stalfos, and up-air the floating enemies. Use up/down-airs to take out the cores.

![Composition Challenge! (Result) - Game Suite Zone
After quite the delay (again) since our last Game Suite Zone episode, we finally take a look at an example of a recently-completed composition! The challenge was to simply compose video game music, so as long as you tried, you did great! Besides that, I cant just issue a challenge and not do it, so you can feel free to take a look at my creation process!
Here are the topics we covered. Subtitles are now available!
1) The Music Itself - 0:45
2) Thinking of the Idea - 3:45
3) Fitting the Subject Material - 5:39
4) Crafting Around the Idea - 7:56
5) Self-Reflection - 14:10
Hope this video was worth editing in 100-degree weather. Now I have more evidence to explain that the universe is trying to torture me!

By the way, heres a poll asking what you think of this series, if youd like to contribute: http://www.strawpoll.me/14164716
Despite this piece being easier to cover, the episode still took quite a while to complete. That makes me doubt that I can ever really make this a weekly thing. I basically did almost nothing but work on this new episode to see if I can get it out in a week, but I missed that deadline a few days ago.
Ill see what else I can do, but Im not confident that I can produce content at this kind of rate. Its a shame, too, because I dont like keeping the channel without content. The next episode will probably be shorter, but I dont think I can keep working on it like this. The only way to produce more content is to choose shorter/easier pieces to cover, but thats not what I intended this series to be in the first place.
Ah, whatever. Well see what happens. I hope this video was interesting for you!
