Should I ban wobbling at my own tournament?

good attempt at avoiding the question though, because if you do answer it, you might look like a 3rd grader. :(
What question? Why it had to be said?

Because that is why you are so sad about how a character builds damage.

Ice climbers are much harder mentally and techically(can) than anyone else in the game. I'm sorry but who are you to john for it to be hard? Everyone but for maybe like 2 or so people in the game have a tool to spam against the ice climbers. they have to punish you they can't approach that much and if you make less mistakes it's not nearly as hard.

They are kindof like a ground based puff in a way. F*** up you die simple as that, but they can't really approach how they would like to llike falco. They both have to space very carefully and heavively puisnh your mistakes

and so people can just camp platforms and make it so this punishing is really more of a hey stupid ur not thinking outside the box approach

I am disappointed, IC boards. ICG's post was the first one to make a legit point :/

Wobbling isn't that bad. It's just boring to watch and easier than the other IC grab combos. Against the majority of the cast I can still dthrow-dair-regrab-blizzard-repeat to get just as much percent as the amount I would need from wobbling.

Wobbling has never been really shown to be game-breaking except as like a stall.

They're not the best character with it.

Wobbling should be allowed against certain characters.

If the other character can be dthrow>dair CGed assuming no SDI, it should be allowed.

Just an idea.

Because wobbling eliminates the fun of watching smash, especially when a similarly effective chaingrab that is not boring to watch could be happening. IC players will not suffer if wobbling was banned against those characters.

Against floaties like peach and samus, the matchup becomes more winnable when wobbling is allowed, and in a way makes the match more interesting to watch.

down throw down air is plenty boring (and also is mostly not guaranteed)

if your concern is only that it's boring and that it's not gamebreaking (since it's not), why not instead have a rule that if you get wobbled for, say, 20%, you have to go kill yourself after the ICs let you go to save time?

That would be a pro agreement.

that's what i do when getting wobbled in friendlies

but really, policing 'boring' in tournament matches? i think you should ban jigglypuff before you ban wobbling

Legit.

Yeah I don't ban wobbling, but I don't use it during tournaments either, also people hardly ever get grabbed vs ICs anymore, everyone is really good, and when they do Nana is rarely synched.
