    Artsy Omni "Smashifies" Shovel Knight

    My hope is that Nintendo sees these renders and gets ideas for DLC characters from them. That'd be awesome! But a very nice job once again. These are entertaining to see and can't wait for more!

    Smash Wii U Gets a "Call To Arms"

    It's boring to watch because it's a ****ing 4/5 month old game. All we know for now is Diddy is stop tier and there hasn't been much counterplay or counter picks for him yet. There's still much that can be done with the game and has FAR more potential than Melee ever will have, simply because...

    CEO 2015 Will Not Have Customs Legal & 2 Stock 5 Minutes

    Because with 2 stocks, you have far less leeway for mistakes and less time to analyze your opponent and learn their patterns. So you play defensively and be careful about your every last move so you don't do a stupid SD or leave yourself open for a big attack. With 3 stocks, you have a whole...

    CEO 2015 Will Not Have Customs Legal & 2 Stock 5 Minutes

    That's a main problem with this. I haven't seen any customs drop in battle like with trophies or CDs, but honestly there should be a system for custom moves (and NOT equipment) to show up in regular smash. Like, have them drop in like the trophies, have it where if you play for a certain...

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    I missed the point? You said customs were random. They are not. You can look them up on Youtube and see what they do everytime you use them. And in the long run, they aren't THAT much of a hassle. I imagine if you tried grinding them out, you could get them all in maybe a week or so...

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    Dude, piss off. We've got UMvC3 coming back for what? The 3rd time in a row now? Street Fighter is back. Melee is back. It's nice to see a fresh set of games enter this year like Smash 4, MKX, and Guilty Gear Xrd. We can have our classics and still allow fresh blood to enter, so get off...

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    ^^^^^^^^^^^ This. This. Everything about this. I cannot possibly put into words how much this. This is the SMASH community, not the Melee community. We have 3 other games (4 if you count 3DS separate) so don't put all the focus on just one of them.

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    That comment is too stupid for words I'm sorry. Customs are NOT random. If anything, normals are random. Look at G&W. His Side-B is random. Why don't we ban him, hmm? The customs are pre-determined and predictable. And I believe that there's a rule that states you must tell your opponent...

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    You say that like Sakurai would actually just put these customs in without pain-stakingly going over every last one to make sure they don't break the game...Obviously the Pikmin thing exists, but that's just one and it only works with reflectors. If there are any game-breaking customs, show...

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    Wobbling is banned over 300% because it's considered stalling. Haven't seen what happens if you go over myself, but I imagine it's a forfeit of the game you're in.

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    ^^^ This right here. If a technique that's essentially a death sentence 99/100 times you get hit with it can be legal, what the hell does Smash 4 have that could POSSIBLY be more broken than that? Kinda hoping wobbling does get banned though for this year's evo. Probably just wishful...

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    That's what I've heard from word of mouth. Really dumb, but I'm not an expert on coding so I wouldn't know how this works. Probably sets it to a value like 1 or something that'd still make it considered eligible rather than a 0.

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    Apparently, even with the slider all the way down, there's a slim chance for the song to play. Kinda dumb all things considered, I mean Nintendo could've put in a disable button for songs, but what're you going to do?

    Smash 4 Evo 2015 Ruleset Updated: Customs On!

    ffs. This is a community decision and community influence deemed customs would be legal. He should just accept that this is going to happen and move on. Yeah I know he has a right to argue this, but considering the fact that if they don't come now they might not ever happen, and that this...

    Proposed Evo 2015 Smash 4 Ruleset: Customs Possible!

    Dude, get off your damn high horse. There are a lot of us that actually prefer Smash 4 to Melee, and there's nothing wrong with that or the vice versa. Melee is far more technical and fast-paced than any other Smash game. That's where the masters can shine and show off their prowess. But for...
