FD doesn't trigger motion sickness for me, neither does Lylat Cruise. I think its specifically physical looking objects that sets off the motion sickness, at least for me. Clocktower and Northern Cave have physical objects moving around while the main stage isn't. Lylat Cruise does have things...

Most likely not: 1) Can personally confirm the start of the loop causes motion sickness Clock Tower Style 2) Music composer is one of the ones who will copywrite any steam with the music playing, same sort of problem as Earthbound stages 3) Background in general is extremely distracting

Well if the music wasn't enough: I near instantly got motion sickness the moment they started playing on the stage on the stream, faster than I do with Clock Tower. 100% banned.

My understand is its going to be an overzealous composer issue, aka streams can't use Earthbound, FF or DQ music because they'll get the copyright strike hard.

I mean, Ike kinda beats up on G&W. Probably the most out of MKLeo's range of characters. Logical switch on his part. idk how he does against Steve because Steve is... Steve. But yes, seeing more of his Ike would be nice given the large changes Ike has gone through. Curious to see how MKLeo...

It does but it consumes Steve's resources stupidly fast and he can only go so far out. While being open to being swatted away while planting a block. And he kinda has to telegraph he's going for that.

Personally I never saw him falling out of top 10. He's a heavyweight with fast buttons, kill confirms out of throws and just plain old fast kill buttons, stage control, good range for not being a sword fighter, a frame 1 combo breaker in grenades, stupid good edgeguarding in his Side B combined...

That's part of why I feel we need to be banning alcohol and segregating by age. There has been very significant damage done to competitive smash as a whole. No sponsor is going to touch us for a long, long time, venues more in the know are going to refuse to host us. Now is not the time for...

I've been following this from afar (not digging into twitter but keeping tabs of the summary thread on Reddit and Omni's videos on the subject matter), and I think there's two clear actions that need to happen for actual change. The first, complete and utter ban of alcohol at smash events...

Ike only lost the ability to combo with Nair for about a 40% window (and then its threatening to kill beyond that window). In exchange he got... everything else. And the Nair combos he does have are more likely to kill, particularly ones based off of laddering up platforms. Nair's changes barely...

Eh, still has its start up before an active hitbox happens for the payoff, don't know if I'd put it that far. Not going to pretend I know exactly how good every Up B OoS is, I imagine ones like Mario are still nutty. But its pretty stupid in a lot of different ways.

Oh hey, Ike's aether no longer clanks on first hit. Transcendent priority on it now. As an OoS move. With super armour. That starts killing around 80%. That can also be comboed into. At kill percents. https://twitter.com/Lyra_GP/status/1277795724122611712

https://twitter.com/Tsunazoz/status/1277777847436947456 Ehehehe. Ike can easily use it OoS as well. And combo Nair into it at kill percents with a backhit. Nair > Uair is harder to do but is still doable (particularly with backhit), Dtilt is a combo move now, Fair has less lag. Dash Attack...

Good chance it was Nintendo asking for Smash to be dropped seeing how they tried to hid the online lag and had the hosts lie during one of the streamed online tournaments that they had a hand in. No way EVO was going to let them cover it up with a hard cutaway during a lag spike to a commentator...

Depends which one. PoR he was pretty darn fast, RD he was actually lacking in a bit of speed and how he plays back in SSB4 was pretty accurate. Both games he was "tanky for an infantry unit" which overall means slightly above average defence. If you wanna go heavy into "he should play like how...
