In Brawl, the item selection allows you to turn off containers. This now nullifies Con-Items side of the argument that "something can fall on you as you attack and kill you, and there's nothing you could so about it." That was pretty much the reason I never considered tournaments with items. However, now that all containers, bombs, healing, invincibility, and random items can be turned off, should they be allowed in tournaments? Heck, I'll even go to say that any item that affects your ability to control yourself on spawn are banned. (Mushrooms)
Is a mine or a smoke bomb going to take the skill out of the game?
Anyone have constructive arguments as to not having items? Even when removing any item that can affect technical skill of the player?
BTW, I'm against item tournaments. (A bias I carry over from Melee. I'm only talking about the possibility of implementing them.)
Here is my prediction of an Item legal tournament.
Spawn: Medium or lower
Smash Ball (??)
Beam Sword
Bunny Hood
Fire Flower
Hammer
Lip's Stick
Metal Box
Motion-Sensor Bomb
Mr. Saturn
Star Rod
Super Scope
Banana Peel
Hot Head
Pitfalll
Smoke Ball
These are the only really reasonable items I can see being in tournaments. Never anything higher than a medium on spawns and Smash Ball is up to the community. I, for one, see no problem with it. Since anything that instantly kills only really gets one chance and anything else doesn't instantly kill you.
Intelligent debate appreciated.
