☁ Wichita Kansas Area Discussion ☁ Let's Play Every Mario Party Board

[MJG]

My thoughts on the stages that should be banned are similar to Stealth's....except, my character doesn't benefit on that stage at all.

Pictochat is somewhat up for debate because the drawing that has cat like eyes and a long, diagonal line in-between them, can really screw with any character at any given moment. In regards to japes, I understand that its a counterpick and I learned to watch the time at X:X5 and X:X7 (<----this is when the crocs will appear) and also learned how to play on it with different characters.

Happy new year!!!! ^_^

Glad someone agrees with me.

Honestly, the only reason I brought this up is because of the reactions I got from Seibrik and other good players here in Florida after telling them what stages the Midwest normally allows. JJ and PC were the two stages they couldn't believe were still legal here. It got me thinking...

Jungle Japes and Pictochat simply aren't stages that should be seen in competitve play IMO. Remember: This is competitive smash. I just have a hard time understanding how stages that can drastically alter the outcome of a match can be considered competitive.

But yeah, I just wanted to start up some discussion on the matter. I won't be bitter if no changes are made.

i been tellin you this for so long. if we play on stages like this lets play on that mario kart stage the wario stage etc. had to go to fl to understand....

if a stage can hurt you i dont think it should be legal is a large scale tourney.

Happy New Year Kansas!!

isnt that why its a COUNTERpick? After that you do have the option to switch characters so your character will perform better onthat stage than your main.

If I am honest though, I could care less, I usually counterpick neutrals anyway.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

why dont we get rid of ps1 cause it has a screwy edge then, that can hurt you. or brinstar, that has some lava lets get rid of that. hey delfino has water we can DROWN in. omg get rid of that ****.

Nuff said.

 

[-Tempest-]

On top of having the chance to switch your character before entering a stage you may not like, you have the option to ban one before the CPer makes their choice. Leave them both in: the essense of competition is adapting to and countering your opponent, is it not?

 

[Holms]

That essence is slowly becoming "make it to where the only difference between each legal stage is how many platforms there are and where those platforms are located."

 

[-Tempest-]

Yes, I've noticed... Tis sad.

 

[Domo123]

remember back when we had enough stages for counterpicking to be considered an art?

 

[Mr. Doom]

Hey, where's mah Pirate Ship?

 

[The Real Inferno]

remember back when we had enough stages for counterpicking to be considered an art?

I like to think I was the king of it. It's so boring these days when I basically have to look at matchups and go "I'll go to Rainbow Cruise or Halberd no matter who they play."

 

[-Tempest-]

Maybe we should try expanding the CP list rather than shortening it...?

 

[The Real Inferno]

I vote for the addition of New Pork City!

 

[Degyn Sefer]

bring back norfair!

 

[Mr. Doom]

I vote for the addition of New Pork City!

lol We might as well add Temple to that.

 

[Royal Nynja]

Neither of those can kill you. ps1's edge is dumb but it doesnt jump out and take a stock off. if your under any stage and mess up coming back you can get stuck under the level.... If you drown in water, stop playing the game... Brinstar can also inflict damage however i dont feel that its a match changer like a clap trap. it still does damage so i stand by my word.

People forget smash is still just a party game that was turned into a 1v1 and 2v2 fighter. Most of these stages are meant for a "party game". I like the idea of counter picks BUT some stages that are legal should be reconsidered. Its like seeing a smurf come out of the background in Street fighter or Tekken, and can kill you randomly or...every time a seven shows up on the timer... I think with all the hacks going around there should be a way to turn off the hazards in the game and free up even more stages to make legal in tournament instead of having to keep making the list shorter. Sooner or later it will come down to only neutrals. If that day comes oh what a happy man ill be.

remember back when we had enough stages for counterpicking to be considered an art?

....gtfo

 

[Fino]

lol We might as well add Temple to that.

temple is legal... but you have to play in the lower left corner of the stage ;D
lawl

[Clel]

No stages should be banned, if they're going to allow the bs stages that are currently legal then why not just gay the game up all the way? A lil Shadow Mosses Island and Mushroomy Kingdom isn't gunna hurt anything.

 

[Steeler]

sooner Or Later It Will Come Down To Only Neutrals. If That Day Comes Oh What A Happy Man Ill Be.

THIS MAN PLAYS DIDDY KONGggg

 

[Royal Nynja]

if random hazards are legal then why not play with items?

THIS MAN PLAYS DIDDY KONGggg

silence! you and your zoo can be gone fowl beast!

 

[Holms]

Well, that's the thing. If the issue is random hazards, then get rid of pictochat, since there's no defending yourself against them (but only while they're appearing, otherwise they're simple enough to deal with). Other places, jungle japes in particular, only happen in set intervals, so they're easy enough to avoid. Norfair gives plenty of fair warning of impending hazards, with the slowly launching/rising/waling lava or the river of death in from the background. Halberd also gives fair warning with it's claw, its slow to aim/charge laser, and super slow bomb.

Picto's hazards are annoying, but they don't randomly kill you (most of the time). Same for japes; if you die from the water or croc, it's your fault, since you always know when it's going to be there. Sure, someone could hit you into them, but then it's more or less the same issue with ice climbers; don't get grabbed, or you'll likely lose a stock. Same here; don't get bitten, or you'll likely lose a stock.

 

[Royal Nynja]

im not saying its not avoidable, im saying that for a 1v1 tournament game, stages with hazards should be banned because its more of a party stage. There are alot of avoidable items but why aren't they legal? no other Tournament viable fighter has hazards... No matter if they kill you or just inflict damage, for a fighting game that everyone wants to be taken serious, it shouldn't be legal in a large scale, serious, tournament in my opinion. Other wise its just a party game with a tournament mode that people are putting money into.

 

[MJG]

People in 1v1 tournament matches are expected to know the stage list though...some of these stages are ridiculous but if you are aware of the possible hazards that can appear out of no where (refers to pictochat), then you SHOULD be fine most of the time

 

[Fino]

Battlefield, FD, Smashville, Halberd, and RC
Those should be the only legal stages imo
