Smash Wars, Episode III: Revenge of the South

I logged in to like this post. I'm so glad to see a positive KirbyKaze once again. Looking forward to seeing you again, David.

I feel like we've inadvertently constructed "neutral stages" as stages which favour the top tiers, especially space animals. I do feel like having a counterpick stage like Brinstar or Mute City would help even things out a bit. (Disclaimer: Marth sucks on both Brinstar and Mute City.) As several...

You'll have to surmount a fair deal of evidence to convince the Marth boards that Marth does not, in fact, suck.

Sounds good to me...

She was 3rd at EVO! :awesome: (and 1st in teams.)

Seems pretty good to me, too! Would be interested in knowing how voters were chosen. Also: did you hear, guys? Marth is better than Jigglypuff now. (How will I excuse my losses :O?)

Any word on whether the rest of the matches will be uploaded? :P

1. PP 2. Mango 3. Westballz (potentially...) 4. Zhu 5. ? Surprised that Stabbed hasn't been mentioned enough, given the criteria being tossed around. He has beaten Westballz and other good Cali players. Shiz looking like a contender again. Bam placed 17th at Apex 2013 -- does that mean...

Myself vs Okami is pools, not bracket. I'd love to see my sets vs. Ciz and Teddy be uploaded, too. And if by chance my matches vs. Toph and Otto were recorded, I'd be thrilled. Ggs, guys. Otto was disgusting in finals.

And with Marth against Peach, too, pls

Guys, should I switch to Sheik/Fox to beat a great Peach? I felt terrible for playing my mediocre Sheik vs. Teddy but I feel like I don't know the matchup well enough with Marth. In all likelihood I should just go Fox and watch SW matches. edit:// LOL...

I read "sick hop" I like it.

"Suboptimal" =/= "mind-blowingly bad". I also don't recall anyone calling it a tournament ideal; it was a cool option and it worked. In this case, it was effective and many people enjoyed the style, too. So is it an "ego circle-jerk"? Not at all. I'm not sure this kind of overdetermined language...

Syntactic ambiguity? Unacceptable, Toph. BTW is there a statistic about how many people on smashboards are nerdy white guys? Just curious. edit:// some people play for more than an "optimal" stream of permutations. They might consider that a "suboptimal" choice is actually the more fun way to...
