    Ridley deserves better

    In a previous post, you just asked who is getting success with the character. When give evidence, you shift the goal-posts to say that ‘early results don’t matter’ when *you yourself* are placing huge emphasis on early impressions of the character. Moreover, you are not holding a conversation or...

    Sunrise, Sunset - Isaac for Smash Ultimate #GoldenSunday

    Hoy, fellow Adepts. Just want to contribute to the hype for our Golden Boi in the final stretch! I’ve been lurking a bunch, but I’m really happy for every one of us in this thread for getting this far over the course of a decade. It’s been a long journey, and depending on how the Direct goes...

    Sunrise, Sunset - Isaac for Smash Ultimate #GoldenSunday

    Oh, sorry guys, I thought I declared myself as an Isaac bro ages ago. Please mark me down as a supporter for our Goldy Boi. The Sun will Shine!

    EVO 2018 Discussion Thread for Smash 4

    So, I haven't been around this community over the last couple years or so. But I understand Bayonetta's tarnished history in Smash 4 enough that I feel like I can add my thoughts to the discussion. Zack and Lima's behaviour was, to put it lightly, incredibly disappointing. I didn't have the...

    The Toxoplasmosis of Rage - Memetic Behavioral Problems In Our Community

    *Edited because the previous content did not fit the discussion of the thread. That post was incredibly entertaining and insightful. On the surface, people are aware of how controversy in media gains traction because of its divisiveness, but it's less obvious how that sort of 'parasitic' cycle...

    Patch 1.1.5

    I think the nuances of her air-speed increase were sort of overlooked when people were discussing her changes earlier. Pre-patch, it was one of the changes that I was hoping would be made, since it does essentially give her more room to work with in every stage of the game. It happens to me...

    Do you have a chance if you can't even win on For Glory?

    Think of it this way: For Glory is not a 'skill-less' environment, but you won't improve much if you just keep playing it. In some cases, you may even be teaching yourself bad habits if the opponents you play against are consistently predictable. If you utilise a limited set of skills with...

    Patch 1.1.5

    Since they come out 2 frames earlier, it could just be that they have slightly more time to track the opponent. Keep in mind that 'improved missile tracking' has been a placebo buff in the past, so we would definitely need video evidence to support this.

    SSBiorhythms and Tournament Nutrition: A Discussion of the Player

    I'm guessing that you were just having a but if fun, but meditation was mentioned within the OP as a point of discussion. Certainly, though, it can be impractical for some individuals, and it definitely takes a lot of practice to actually notice a difference, but it is still a potential avenue...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Fair enough. Admittedly, mine was a simple suggestion, but not an elegant one.

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    What I'm curious about is why they didn't just make it so she keeps falling until she hits the ground. I mean, it wouldn't stop it from still being really powerful, but at least she wouldn't be able to go off-stage *and* make it back, too.

    SSBiorhythms and Tournament Nutrition: A Discussion of the Player

    I truly think it's worth discussing what kinds of foods can be beneficial to certain people, at least. Competitors optimise their technical skills, is it not also plausible that they might wish to consider how to 'optimise' their nutitrional habits, as well? For the mental preparation side...

    Meta "The Final Content" [1.1.4] Patch Discussion

    Certainly haven't noticed it with (Varia Suit) Samus, I'm pretty sure I get punished just as hard for a whiff as usual. Since I don't have separate versions, though, I can't test it myself.

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Not horrid, just horribly stylish. But yes, Bayo's rolls are pretty bad. Experience with other characters that utilise SHAD frequently, like Samus, will help ease the transition. And though it's not truly reliable, there's always the potential for SHAD > Witch Time if you have conditioned your...

    Intimidation? A game outside the game?

    That's part of intimidation, yeah. When I've played against my younger brother (who goes 50/50 with me, too), a couple of bad matches have gotten to me, too, even though it was just in a 'safe' circle. Part of the reason was, at that point in time, neither of us had really invested time into...
