Who are you or anyone else to say that? It's irritating that a select few are trying to speak for the whole community. Just because you don't want high gravity mode in the competitive scene doesn't mean everyone else agrees with you. People can play brawl however they like. If more competitive players end up liking high gravity mode more than regular then deal with it.
I knew this thread was to advertise a new style of tourney gameplay.
I don't speak for everyone here, and I don't wish to. But I've got an idea for you. Unfortunately for you and your hopes on High Gravity, the probability of it being the new rules for official competitive gameplay is zilch. You're on a crusade against the odds, buddy. Let me tell you that. But an idea just hit me.
You seem so hellbent on the High Gravity setting, which is fine. So why not let it be apart of tournaments? As an
EXTRA. At Melee's End in Calgary, Alberta, Canada? We had multiple different tournaments lined up. The only one we did not manage to complete or begin was the Low Tier tournament.
Let standard mode be the primary gameplay aspect for singles & doubles, but perhaps allow a High Gravity tournament on board as a second fiddle tournament for some places.
You may not even get that; but feel free to host some tournaments of your own outside of the official scene, nobody's stopping you. But there's an idea at least.
High Gravity tournaments in order to allow a quicker style of gameplay/melee-esque fighting, if you REALLY work for it, could be special condition tournaments at best as the primary aspect of Brawl is what should and will likely be the mainstream of competitive gameplay.
