These are a vocal minority that exist in every game, and they're much less of a problem now than they were a year ago for us. Smash as a whole has a better community (although I personally hate treating "Smash" like it's all one community) than almost any game, and a substantially better...

The people voting for ESAM are not a majority. They are a unified minority. If everyone in Melee decided to get behind 1 particular player instead of splitting their votes, ESAM's votes wouldn't even come close. This is the problem with a system like this, and it's being exploited. You could...

In all fairness, I've never seen a single bad thing said about 64 anywhere besides one or two predictable Twitch chat comments. I've never actually seen anyone who plays a Smash game talk bad about any of the Smash games in person, with the exception of a few Sm4sh players bashing their own...

Omni claiming that the hate on ESAM is because he's a Sm4sh player isn't entirely accurate. Yes, ESAM is a top 100 player according to MIOM. But if we're taking his MIOM placement into consideration, that means there's 80 players more deserving. A lot of people just don't want to bother watching...

This really isn't a solid case at all. 2007 is too long ago to be considered relevant, and we all know how little his TBH5 run actually meant. If we're talking about skill, there are a good 60-70 players at least that are more deserving. If we're talking about who needs to great practice The...

Not actively trying to kill other games. Very giving. It's also far too easy to make an argument that Nintendo isn't trying to kill them off because their worried about the backlash moreso than anything else. But what Nintendo gives barely qualifies as support. All I've heard of Nintendo doing...

I don't think Nintendo has ever actually donated money. They just advertise their products and supply setups, which are taken back after the event.

He's definitely not a liar. Just an idiot. At least he's a dedicated idiot, I guess.

I don't think I've seen a single PM tier list I've agreed with more than this one. There are definitely some things that I disagree with, but everything except for a few characters are basically close enough. Really, really like this one.

First, I don't understand why you're implying that implementing new technology with Fox, Falco and Sheik doesn't count as the game evolving. It may not be going in the direction you like, but it's still the game changing and growing more complex. Second of all, people ARE implementing new...

The tier list is only a fraction of the metagame. Just because Fox is considered the best doesn't mean the game isn't evolving. Doubleshines and shield drops are becoming commonplace. Falcos are starting to to incorporate soft Nairs/Bairs as DI mixups. Sheik players are finally getting the...

Although we all know Melee will someday die, it's hard to seriously discuss because I don't think most of us can picture it happening in the foreseeable future. Simply playing the game competitively usually leads to one or two friends picking it up, and then their friends try to learn, and then...

To be fair, not everyone is as enthusiastic about the game as its fanbase. A lot of people simply don't care about the roster, and I think most people can attest that the more they play the game, the more they drift away from the character from the series they like and towards the character they...

Melee Vs. FFVII soon. If we pull this off, we're all Gods among men.

Either way, there's no reason to be pouring gasoline on the fire in the first place. This is a forum, not Twitch chat, and Smashboards in particular is held to a higher- Jk, this site has been a joke since Sm4sh was announced. But in all seriousness, this isn't the place to be arguing about...
