Yeah, the fact is that it just comes out too slowly to be able to really hit much. Default Thunder, on the other hand, is good for quickly catching people in the air, for upthrow->Thunder, for edgeguarding purposes, for recovery... It's such a fantastic tool for so many situations that it's not...

Any one of a decent size should be, yeah, but all of your fears are completely unfounded. For one, if you really didn't want to, you could simply request to not play on the stream setup, unless you start making it to finals or something. But even then, realize that nobody really cares about the...

Funnily enough, the set needed to pull off the infinite isn't on the EVO sets 'cause everyone on the Pikachu boards thought Meteor Quick Attack was trash. Go figure. Still, Thunder Wave by itself is really powerful.

Yeah, I think Battlefield is good for Pika - really, any stage with a lot of room on the edges for Pikachu to edgeguard or even just threaten an edgeguard is good for him. Battlefield is really good in this regard, and I think the platforms add some utility for combo game and Quick Attack...

It's barely over a week until it's locked in, just sit tight for a bit.

Honestly, the only reason to implement the "ban a stage, ban the Omega too" rule is Lylat. Of course, that's a very, very good reason.

Right, but this is supposed to only be the case for EVO - a necessary evil to have customs legal. In almost every other tournament, there should be the option to upload, because the time constraints won't be as pressing. This isn't supposed to dictate which ones everyone can use; most of the...

We're already working on replacing the 2222/3333 sets, as well as filling out the two extra slots for uploading for tournaments that don't allow uploading (such as EVO).

Uh, meant 2113. Thanks.

I'd basically agree with those, though I think having both Amplifying/Impact Orbitars for the Piercing Arrow sets is more important than having both up-B's. Honestly I'd say just put 2112 and 2113 on both Pits and leave the Striking Flight out altogether - it's gonna be a pretty niche set...

There's actually a 3v3 tournament in Ontario coming up soon. Would be 4v4 but they think they'll get more entrants if it's only 3. Honestly, I think that's the biggest reason it's not catching on more; it's kind of hard to get a team of 3 or 4 people that work well together, and then also get...

In a ruleset that allows customs, I'd say that there's not a great argument to not allowing different sizes; there were a lot of arguments in the beginning that you'd have to know a lot of different combo/kill percents, but now I think we know that between rage and staling that kind of thing...

Ah, yeah, didn't even think about that. Still don't see it becoming a popular option, but one person is much easier to get a hold of. Getting that fifth controller is still difficult, though, in the sense that you either need a) the Gamepad to not be dead b) a person with a wireless controller...

Why would you have to exit the 8-Player Smash screen? You can still play with two players in that mode just fine, as far as I know. Nevertheless, not really a good idea, as much as I wish it was; for one, you need to have three extra people there just to suicide for the match, which isn't...
