    I understand what you're trying to say, but it just doesn't work the way you make it out to be. I like MK's drill move, so I won't just stop using it altogether just because Smash punishes new players overly hard for making mistakes (even beside that, it's very easy to accidentally use a side...

    I see that most of the advice comes down to "just get better". I hope you realize this is not useful advice in any way. I understand you cannot give much else, as the system is just that bad, but then I would advise you to just come out saying "I don't have any advice for you", because getting...

    I guess it's Nintendo's way of trying to make the learning curve steeper, but it just leaves me struggling to find something that incentivises me to actually use the 15 seconds or so I get per game before I am eliminated and forced to sit the entire thing out on the sidelines to try and learn...

    I see. Thanks for answering either way. I guess it's just a real harsh punishment on bad players. Maybe that's the issue with the stocks as well, is it possible to lose 2 stocks if you die early enough? It's the same with the downtime, if you're just not a good player and die fast, you're stuck...

    I don't understand your answer at 2. That applies to normal leaving, but if you're already eliminated, you can't be replaced by an AI, or cheat your way through ranks (unless you get rank points for losing). It's equally annoying being eliminated early because you receive less stocks than your...

    So I just picked up smash 2 weeks ago, grinded some adventure, and wanted to try my hand at online today. Big mistake, it turns out. First game I queued up to, I ended up in a 1v1, was unable to unready because I wanted to wait for more people, and had to leave the game because this wasn't what...
