To be quite clear, the OP asked in the title, what does his GSP say about his skill, so I would say that my declaration is rather on topic and relevant, despite your point (which I don't wholly disagree with).

Missing the point entirely. If you really think one single game no matter how badly played validly justifies downranking a person in skill-identification beneath hundreds of thousands of players worse than them prior to that match, you have missed the entire boat. GSP is a poor method of...

When you can lose several hundred thousand GSP for one loss that should speak volumes about how little it means to unlock elite smash or fall out of it.

I think Lucas is pretty annoying online, very close tie with Samus and any version of Link. 2nd to that is probably Ganondorf or Incineroar because they camp the command grab and do 50% each confirm.

Instead of giving you any advice on keeping perspective, how about instead you post a video of your replay and then we can all see just how bulletproof your gameplay is and see if your frustration is warranted?

It's interesting to me that people seem to think adding taunts back in will somehow make people never teabag? People will still teabag regardless because it creates salt and that's just what sone people like to do, so the argument of whether taunting should be in or not needs to find better legs...

It means nothing. If you want to know where you actually stack up go to a nearby local/weekly or travel to a big bracket with a few featured players. GSP is meaningless and only serves to be a rough matchmaking component for online play, but online play in and of itself varies in meta due to...

We're talking about the same company, right?

I can also guarantee you that tournament results are meaningless to the dev team in terms of any nerfs they may apply. Smash 4 Little Mac says hi. They balance for all levels of play in Smash so not every change you see is even going to make sense through the lense of a competitive player, and...

Personally I believe buff culture to be just as toxic as nerf culture. Only ever buffing leads to power creep and this is just as bad if not worse than a never ending chain of nerfs. The idea that you should only ever buff is ridiculous and highly misguided. Sometimes a nerf is necessary to...

Posting in this late but check this video here from the Super Splat Bros tourney: https://youtu.be/qaG12K-aXS4 Starting at 2:40 when it cuts to the players you can see the player on the left (which I believe is Mewtwo/Hitaku) is using the black Zelda-themed hori battle pad. I cannot see that...

Just one sort of vague one. It messes up your opponents timing when you're going off stage to edge guard and they react too quickly to your approach only to see that you've stunted your approach speed, and are now coming at them with the same jump trajectory at just a slightly lower angle while...

aight aight chill bro, this isn't a smash 4 tech news update

The two of you would have to be either living under a rock or completely ignoring the competitive scene to miss that Pichu is an obviously fiercely dominant force right now and serious contender for top tier.

And if you are running stamina mode, you deserved to get teabagged.
