Just here to say I told you so. Gotta listen to the players and viewers next time. That’s two games in a row ruined by “lrn2play n00b” defense of OP characters. Blaming the community for being “toxic” is no better than Nintendo waltzing in with that “team damage off, all items and stages on, and...

LOL triggered much? I’m not saying ban her. I was there for Brawl. There is literally nothing that would make you ban a character. If you love getting beat by that stuff, more power to you. You are the self-proclaimed authority on tournament data and therefore balance, right? I just think it’s...

Just hopped online to see how the game has developed. I have to say: you guys are real gluttons for punishment to have not banned Bayonetta by now. Doesn’t even feel like playing Smash Bros when she’s on the field. This **** is going back in the drawer. See you for Smash 5.

If you are playing defense, you aren't controlling the pace of ****.

Are we really still stuck on simple thinking like "Rosa will be top ten forever because Luma"? What, ESAM SDI'd out of a few WT combos in one tournament so now Bayo is totally managable and we should never get combo'd hard, but Luma is still a mythic threat? We haven't figured out how it works...

Honestly I don't have an opinion on this one way or the other. Why is 1.1.6 ZSS objectively better than Marth?

+1 for recognizing Rosa's vulnerability. Regarding Bayo SDI, I'm still only seeing talk about a single ESAM performance. Would love to see some evidence that you can SDI out with other characters and not get frametrapped or something anyway.

Seeing a lot of talk about ESAM. Gonna argue the other side and ask someone to post videos of SDIing out of Bayo's stuff with Rosa, Falcon, Mario, etc.

What do you want the video to show? The players' hands or something? How do you show Bayo nailing a combo where the response won't just be "they should have SDI'd even better"?

I mean, a hoo ha/ding dong/beep boop will "tie" anyone's kit together.

I don't consider "gets camped out by Shiek" to be a character-defining weakness. That's like 3/4 of the cast, including a number of top 20 characters. How does Ike corner Shiek on BF? Ryu? Villager? I'm interested in hearing what Lucas' actual weaknesses are. Not talking "Shiek outspaces him"...

Um...correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't SDI just mashing the smash stick? I keep seeing comments about "mastering SDI" or "learning SDI" like there's something complex going on here, but all you do is just mash away from the hurtbox. Why is there some notion that people don't understand this? Is...

It's not the frame data on ws and needles that makes them good. It is the high mobility of :4greninja::4sheik: allowing them to easily take a favorable position when you react to the projectile. If you shield, they can get that much more stage control. If you jump, they can get under you from...

Care to actually contribute something to the discussion?

I think Greninja's a pain in the ass to play against, but at the end of the day, he's just a crap Shiek. Crap Shiek is still really amazing, but...y'know, regular Shiek is still around. My only real problem with the character is how strong his camp game is. I don't understand why they gave fast...
