    Is it just harder to play online than locally?

    The WiFi / LAN issue where the WiFi is faster is a common issue. As well as the Switch not getting your full speed. It seems to be a ratio of what your connection is capable. I have around 45mbps with a 150mbps connection, people with 400mbps usually get around 100mbps on the Switch. It is a...

    Is it just harder to play online than locally?

    Hum the problem is that the lag doesn't slow down the gameplay. It affects your reaction time for sure, but if anything, it forces you to anticipate your opponent's action. Which is something that is crucial in local gameplay as well (a lot of moves in Smash are impossible to react to due to the...

    I suck at this game. No matter what...

    Hum, I wouldn't say Cloud is that bad. He's got nerfed from Smash 4 (rightfully so), but he is still good. I think if you get punished a lot because of his move lag, then the problem is probably to know when attack and what attack to use. You have pretty good options that are safe on shield...

    Countering (Projectile) Spam - Ultimate

    I think it's not that they're particularly good, it's mostly that they're frustrating and annoying to play against and for a lot of people, that can lead to getting impatient and making stupid mistakes. Especially the ones that tend to spam projectiles a bit too much. The best to do in that...

    Too much gsp decrease per loss

    Sadly I don't have the same feeling. I mean, there are spammers at low GSP of course, but I don't know, you can sorta feel that it's mainly because they don't quite know how to play and they are usually really easy to beat. I've encountered more of them above 3 million and they are the most...

    Elite Smash?

    I think Elite is more around 3.6 million now.

    I suck at this game. No matter what...

    I would add to that, don't limit yourself at watching the very best players. There are YouTubers out there who might not have the same level but are much better at teaching. I think Izaw or Jtails for example.

    Too much gsp decrease per loss

    Ah I misunderstood. Then yes, I totally agree.

    Too much gsp decrease per loss

    Well, competitive and casual should have a separate ranking system to begin with. If they were to limit that to Elite Smash, that would mean that if a casual player reach Elite Smash, the game would make him play competitive all of a sudden. It wouldn't be fair.

    Too much gsp decrease per loss

    I don't think the problem is tied to GSP specifically. You would have the same issue with any other ranking system. There's no way for the game to see who's a good player and who's not. The only is based on win/lose and if people can cheese their way through GSP with shady tactics, then they...

    The 10 characters you most fear/dislike playing against online

    :ultrosalina: I completely forgot about them. I can't really say I fear them, but I think I've encountered 2 in 150 hours of online play. So I don't understand the match up yet and get destroyed all the time (well...both times at least)

    The 10 characters you most fear/dislike playing against online

    :ultincineroar: You think you're going to win? Here's a side B with rage. And here goes your stock. :ultisabelle: I don't know if fear is the word here...but she is one of the most annoying character to fight. Not that I wouldn't be able to handle the match up, but the matches are usually so...

    Why is online in this game so bad?

    Haven't had this issue either, but I'm only playing battle arena with friends from the same region as me. Maybe it's a distance thing issue...couldn't know, it never happened to me :urg:

    Why is online in this game so bad?

    Also something that's been happening to me since the patch 2.0.0, I keep getting matched against people at 3.5 or 3.6 million. This was my threshold, the best I could do be at was 3.4 million. After that, I'm usually getting wrecked. Even though I get back to 2.5, 2 million, the game keeps...

    Why is online in this game so bad?

    He did...what is the maximum speed of your connection? I've noticed that many people with like a 300 or 400mbps connection get close to 100mbps. While I get 40 to 50 mbps with my max connection being 150 mbps...it seems to take only a ratio of what your connection is capable of. Also, I don't...
