    Discussion of Stage Legality in Smash Bros. Ultimate

    Definitely a step in the right direction there but posting it in "general" will probably detract from it getting the discussion it actually deserves. Maybe discussion can continue here? Quite a few good points are brought up in that thread you linked and it does serve as a good discussion...

    Discussion of Stage Legality in Smash Bros. Ultimate

    Agreed, but keep in mind. Pretty much anything can be considered polarizing given supporting context, which in turn can likely carry varying degrees of subjectivity. It would be just as bad, if not worse than singles. Walkoffs in general always tend to lean towards degenerate play. With those...

    Discussion of Stage Legality in Smash Bros. Ultimate

    Personally, I'm in favor of this option for games 2 and onwards as it does give both players more control over their counterpicking and should be a pretty quick process. It also seems like it would work fairly well in tandem with FLiPS after it's initial striking process so a player doesn't have...

    Discussion of Stage Legality in Smash Bros. Ultimate

    This doesn't answer my question.... Makes sense, thanks for clarifying. As a community we're pretty much used to reactive stage bans so I was curious as to the reasoning there. I can read....I get that. However, this favors knowledge of an opponent and likely scenarios you will encounter...

    Discussion of Stage Legality in Smash Bros. Ultimate

    I like the idea of the FLiPS ruleset a lot. I do have some questions about some aspects of the ruleset though. Why exactly at this point is having no bans or only one ban favored? In the example given in the document there are 16 stages that remain after the initial list is struck down, this...

    Official 4BR Tier List V3 - Competitive Insight & Analysis

    Greninja players focusing on footstools as the main course of his game is practically a meme at this point. If you actually watch most high level Greninja footage you won't really see this. I agree his neutral as a whole is underdeveloped, but I feel that is more due to his options in neutral...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    There's no reason it had to follow any pattern. However, for what it's worth to compare Ryu-Bayonetta were all a lot better than the DLC before them and were all considered to be very good characters by the community at large.

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Random thought. "I wonder....did Nintendo/Namco have the intention from the start to make bayo stupidly good (ballot winner) just to milk sales till they dropped off, then nerf her to appease the competitive community." :ohwell: Would be a good way to make some easy money.

    Just a heads up but Corrin likely also beats Ness worse than Rosa.

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    You likely can't do it on reaction to raw fsmash but what zss even does that? As far as the other moves that Trifroze mentioned as long as you are predicting the situation you can consistently sshc out of all of those moves. I myself have no issue consistently getting out of most of ZSS'...

    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    This x10 Greninja does lose the matchup, but the amount of negativity coming from Greninja players will only serve to create a mentality where they'll likely already lose once their opponent picks Sheik on the character select screen. For what it's worth I think Greninja vs Sheik is roughly...

    What is there to explain? I don't see anything that Pit has in particular that would warrant saying he's an undeniably better character. Also, Pit isn't a very hard character to understand.
