Ban Chibo from melee tournaments.

If we look at "the metagame" as "what happened in GFs at the last big tournament" then gameplay does seem to be getting campier. Of course, before this weekend our last point of reference was a Falco ditto, and before that we had Fox/Peach. I think we're taking these results a little too...

These are very strong points. If you must compare a game of melee to a round in the bedroom, then a four stocking would be equivalent to a premature ejaculator really enjoying himself: one of the consensual participants had a good time but it ended way too quickly for the other. But that's...

Two strikes and you still haven't even stepped up to the plate. My point was you're comparing apples to laser rifles, not just with your opening analogy, but also when you compared the word "****" to the words "jungle" and "blue;" it's just not relevant. Melee and sex do not lend themselves to...

Uh... try again? There was a lot wrong with your post, but I think this really sums it up.

No, I don't go on SRK, so I was pulling that part out of my ***. What I can say with confidence is that I myself have considered going to tournaments and passed because I'm pretty sure I'd rather not meet Mango or the people who ride his ****, and I'm positive I'm not alone. I'm offering this...

On the internet, just about every site draws new viewers every so often. There's always posts in Melee discussion from people who have single- or double-digit post counts. Also, there was some ridiculous number of people on the stream for The Big House (was it over 2k?). Competitive melee...

Zhu and Kage could each take four or five stocks off against any combination of players other than Mango, and he's basically negated by the combo of M2K and HBox. Not sure how Darkrain and Andala would do though. I think it'd be a pretty tight battle overall.

So recently I've been playing a king of the hill-like game with my buddy where you do a Hyrule jump and attempt to take control of the bottom platform from your opponent. The only rules are that you can't go down the normal way, all fighting must take place on the bottom platform, and as a...

Falco's shine-aerials and Fox's shine-upsmash are much easier for me with the C-stick. Most SHFFLs as well. For whatever reason though, I've always found JC upsmashes to be easier with the A button. Given that you're probably talking about smashes, unless I'm trying to read someone, I usually...

Something I've been thinking about since this thread opened up- look at Ken, PC Chris, Mew2King, and Mango. These smashers all dominated their respective eras more than any other players, and they've all taken out Fox in top-level tournament play and shown us the business. The "most powerful...

IMO people tend to overrate both lasers and powershielding. Used aggressively, lasers can help an approach but it can also make you reliant on patterns that are very easy to predict. Laser camping is annoying, but it doesn't do that much damage (for some perspective watch Isai vs. Forward...

Guys lets ban Kenyans from running in marathons.

You know what's comparable to Akuma? The Master Hand glitch. Metaknight was created to be played against your friends and your competitors. Akuma was not, so stop falling back on that. Besides, if you read the comments on the original article Sirlin took a lot of **** for saying Akuma should...
