    What if custom controls were possible?

    It is relevant because your example doesn't make sense. Afraid of change isn't a ridiculous argument, especially when we already had someone admit they were in this very thread. Since you never specified what kind of macros it was assumed you were talking about macros that are not already in the...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Again not even close to the same thing. Your talking about things that are already in the game, which this wouldn't change. It changes how we play it. There is a difference between change in gameplay based on mechanics and changes to how people are able to play which is based on controllers and...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Orange to Apples comparison right there, but I'll indulge none the less. Turbo buttons introduce the possibility of inputs that are not humanly possible, that is the reason they are banned. Custom controls would not give people the ability to perform inputs not possible by humans, or at least...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    You're entitled to your opinion, I guess we just have to agree to disagree. Ok... I am failing to see the problem here? You learned to do a tech using your own controls faster because it made more sense to you? That's my point, its not that the tech is easier just because of that layout, its...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Its not modding the gameplay, if anything it was what you said earlier which is modding how the game can be played, they are two different things entirely. Not a great example considering remapping buttons would not give you a way to do perfect Firefox angles. Maybe you are thinking about...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    So there is a trade off? This only makes custom controls more viable considering you may have to sacrifice certain techniques or make others harder, that's up to the player though. I don't see how making your c-stick would make pivot shine easier, but even if that is true, you now lose the...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Glad your still here :D The reason I didn't directly address you analogy was it didn't make sense. Custom controls does not give everyone abilities that no one else has, which addressed the analogy. See the problem is in terms of what is a controller in this analogy, its the player themselves...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    This is my point, but like @HeavyLobster1120 said some people are just afraid of change. I know what you said, and technically each time you've said it you have responded in one form or another :D. Nothing is going over my head I just don't agree with what you are saying and have explained why...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Not sure I am getting what your trying saying about "unfair". If your saying that competitive players avoid being unfair I would have to severely disagree with you. If your saying that competitive players wouldn't say that something is unfair then I don't see what the opposition to custom...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Turbo Buttons could help L-cancel every time no matter how they block/move to mess you up which would be a huge help, this would require the Z button though I believe since it could mess up your tech window. Other than that I don't even see how else Turbo buttons would benefit a game like smash...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    See for me if a game is changed then part of its code has changed, or mechanics of the game have changed. To me allowing other controls does not change the game especially if it is done outside of the system itself. If something like 20XX TE pulls off being able to change controls great, even...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    I'm still not understanding how the game itself would be changed? Maybe the meta, but that has always been a possibility I mean just look at that the past 14+ years. Also I don't get the whole we've done it this way for years so its the best mentality, I feel in general that thought process...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    Well ideally you could create a controller with a layout the way you like it, but that would cost a lot of time and money. Should such a controller be allowed in a tournament? If it has no extra buttons or turbo why not? I feel like people who practiced with a regular control scheme will feel...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    True, but modding a controller is a semi permanent and not very easy task for the average player, something that is basically plug and play and readily available to everyone is way more beneficial and also makes the question of tournament use different because not everyone can or is willing to...

    What if custom controls were possible?

    What if it was a device like a converter, except instead of converting the controller signal it remapped the buttons?
