So CosmicCosmos has picked up Corrin and has been doing some impressive things with it. It looks like the character has more potential than I thought, mostly due to the quick side-b technique. She's no s-tier but winning grand finals at shockwave certainly says good things. She's higher than the...

This guy. This guy. This guy. Though I would say just being a counter to a strong counter to the top tier isn't exactly broken by any means. I mean, just cause there is some warping of the meta game doesn't mean it's unhealthy. Or worse than sheik.

@Radical Larry I agree on a lot of what you said, though maybe the not the extremity of it. Pilot Wings has legitimate camping concerns, and there are people who have reasons other than 'We already have Delfino" for banning Skyloft, per se. I agree with you that the burden of proof is on the...

Yeah any disagreement between us at this point is one of semantics. @ParanoidDrone I agree with that plan. I had something similar, but yours is what I think we should focus on.

And my point is that we already have a good enough understanding to have confidence in it until proven otherwise. Though I do agree we should have it as a separate on the simple grounds that it's the only way anyone will ever agree to it.

A: Balance concerns aren't a worry, as I've stated previously. B: Players don't like feeling constrained. There would probably be a lot of depth to not allowing Sheik, Zamus, or Rosalina t be played, forcing people to get outside their comfort zone. But people don't like not being able to play...

If there were any broken sets they sure as hell didn't show their faces at EVO, and given the amount of time we had to experiment with them I feel like we would've found them by now. A Sheik/Diddy main won Evo, after all. And there is no point in allowing just 1 custom. What are the fundamental...

I have 2 problems with your argument. 1. You comparing the process for banning stages as the same for banning customs. First of all, the banning of stages took place over time and was due to results of experimentation. The ones that were eliminated immediately were eliminated due to objectively...

SO I guess you could say you got. :4greninja:'d.

Well, to avoid confusion, which there quite obviously is, allow me to set up a definition of balance: "The comparative levels of success to be found with using different characters in a competitive environment" A perfectly balanced game would have all characters on equal ground. When I talk...

It looks like greninja's. Though I believe Zamus's stun gun is a more apt analogy.

And it's not supposed to be. Maybe I overexaggerated it, but it's very useful now, and it's not even used for killing all that much anymore since uair is so good out of throw. It'd be fine even if knock back got nerfed.

Bouncing fish is already way too good for getting out of disadvantage. We don't need it to be safer. And with Rosa, I feel like the other changes are so drastic it fits to give her slightly earlier kills if she plays right, considering how she gets more punished for playing wrong. Besides, you...

I am somewhat in favor of this. There's some arguments to be said about how "you shouldn't have launched them upwards", but it's so luck based that that's hardly justification. Honestly, I'm not fully in favor of the suicide clause but I'm in favor of this. There is an argument to be made that...

So here's my thoughts on the matter. Mostly flying by the seat of my pants on this post but it's not like I haven't thought of it before. The way I classify characters in my own personal tier list is in terms of gatekeeping. Think of it this way: In just about any fight between an A tier...
