    Smash Ultimate Ruleset Philosophy

    i wouldn't read too much into the 2gg list until game launches. as part of the socal panel i can assure you it's exactly what it is described in the link - a placeholder.

    there's more info on hazardless stage which has been compiled here: https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/9u2zio/compilation_of_information_about_hazardless/ it's not my post, and i don't cosign many of the bolded stages (green greens and kongo jungle as striking examples). but here's...

    i dont see an issue with allowing link + young link + toon link. if someone wants to pick all zoners or all sword users then that's their prerogative. but echo fighters are distinctly advertised as near-clones of each other. seems like an easy line to draw to me. keeping in mind that this event...

    Smash Ultimate Ruleset Philosophy

    what is the argument here? people who are primarily trying to win will play the best characters in any format. people who aren't primarily trying to win will pick the characters they enjoy the most. this is going to hold true for any format in any game. a couple issues here: 1 - the idea of...

    i (and i dont think anyone else) would push for squad strike to replace singles this early. but if i were to be completely honest i could easily see myself enjoying such a mode over regular singles. there's definitely enough merit to the format competitively speaking that i would encourage TOs...

    i addressed these points in different twitter threads so ill copy my responses here: "[stage morphing gives] a pretty big advantage to whoever gets the morph first. the direct made it look like it can be made to either transform randomly (no thx) or transform at minute intervals. so in a 3...

    my biggest issue with the redundancy is that you can already pick battlefield with a midgar background. so if the only real difference ends up being hazardless midgar has a slightly different lip than omega BF midgar, then what are we actually gaining here? you get all the same music and...

    you can find differences between stages like bf and dreamland in smash 4. battlefield and miiverse are almost entirely interchangeable, so miiverse was banned outright. battlefield and dreamland are treated as the same after game 1, because even though there are differences between the stages...

    hazards off is going to give us a lot of battlefields. in addition to the fact that battlefield can already be played on every stage, what will be our metrics for deciding if a hazardless BF variant is different enough to warrant its own stage? one of my concerns is if something like hazardless...

    Smash Ultimate Ruleset Philosophy

    just to copy paste some quick twitter discussion on metered FS, I made a twitter video arguing against people who are willing to sacrifice a bit of game health for an extra setting: https://twitter.com/fallnaway/status/1027738926650351619 Some either got the impression that I'm against testing...

    there is also a PGStats ultimate ruleset discord for pgr players/commentators/TOs to contribute to. because the chat room type setting makes it hard to really keep up with everything that's said or even stay on topic, i asked for someone to summarize any relevant developments in their sequence...

    it's a conversation worth having. i was very uncomfortable with the fact that jk was allowed at evo. but what else can be done if the local scene chooses to support their boy? what if the AZ scene does the same thing with the players that were caught alting at hyrule saga? Edit: Coco, one of the...
