look dude i know youre trying to analyze me and stuff but its not even about me wanting to use metaknighta at this point. i kinda like lucario. im kinda planning on going to tournaments if bham likes brawl again (which it seems like they like project m more) just to see becasue i like to compete and i like SOME people i honestly do.Slam, I have an honest question for you: if we unbanned Metaknight, would you really be happy? Yes, I'm sure you'd be happier than having him gone, but I do remember what things were like before he was banned a year and a half ago. You were still angry all the time, and now you've convinced yourself that this one thing is fueling your anger, that if only you could change it you wouldn't be upset anymore. I only ask this because if you aren't happy, then something needs to change. I'm not advocating you leave the community necessarily, but you should think about what really keeps you so upset all the time because I find it hard to believe it's just the ban.
i watch videos and play online all the time. i do know alot about the community and yes, you lost because you didnt want to adapt. i applaude you on admitting that. i honestly expecting a "lol pwii has no skillz uses metaknight lol" from you. and youre a pro i shouldnt be expecting that **** from you. you just hate the character for no reason sometimes.I'm all for theorizing, but when its objective is primarily to attempt to ridicule someone, it should be shut down, especially when there's no substance behind it. Keyboard warriors need to get out of my face.
good post and im not being sarcastic.I was talking in relation to Old Sagat, who isn't even the best character but makes a majority of the cast completely unviable.
I'll respond to the rest in a bit.
You assume way too much about everyone for what appears to be no reason. You constantly call the average players sheep with the only thing supporting your opinion being that people disagree with you. You clearly have a personal vendetta against the AL Brawl community, as you've been nothing but extremely childish for the past year and a half (and mostly childish for much longer than that) for the primary purpose of antagonizing people in the community instead of actively attempting to compromise, prove your points, or spending much time with the anti-ban rules. Everyone against it here (the majority, last time I checked) spent three years putting up with it, but you can't even last for a small fraction of that? It's in very poor taste to tell people that they're not competitive after that much data when we haven't had any time to play with the alternative, and you haven't given your unliked ruleset much of a chance, comparatively.
Some of us don't even mind that much, and would be willing to play either way. If that's not you, that's your prerogative, and I wouldn't hold anything against you for it, but why do you have to cry about it every chance you get, whine about not having your hand held every step of the way to a tournament, and lament the supposed loss of the competitive aspect of a game that you can hardly begin to understand as it is?
In the times we've reached out and compromised (MK-legal tournaments in GA, Auburn Smash nights, etc.), you always have some sort of an excuse, then complain about how we never do anything that appeals to you. It's as if you're actively trying to antagonize the people you supposedly want to hang out with. I'm under the impression that you just want attention, and generally being a jerk to people helps you fill that need. If that's true, there are better ways to do it. If it's not, then please develop at least a rudimentary understanding of how social interactions are supposed to work, because no one simply has it out for you--You're just so incredibly dense, whiny, and flaky that it's only natural for people to groan whenever they see you post here.
Nobody likes to lose, nobody likes to feel like they aren't continuing to improve, and not everyone in the community will be particularly likable or agreeable, but the fact that you let those things get to you all at once shows that you actually don't have much of a competitive drive (at least, in Brawl). Suggesting otherwise when you apparently do everything in your power to avoid playing makes it look like you're deluding yourself, though. You might want to think about that. If this game/community isn't for you, then you should spend it doing something that makes you happier. What you shouldn't be doing is actively insulting people, complaining about things that don't affect you, and judging people for things you couldn't possibly know with any certainty. It only serves to frustrate the people you supposedly expect more from--If you are actually trying to make us think differently, you've done what is probably the worst possible job with that, and you've pretty much lost any credibility or relevance you once had with this community.
You suggest that you were surprised that I didn't say I "lost to a no-skilled scrub," then insult me for assuming that I believe that. You suggest that losing options in characters and stages has no competitive merit, but that your mentality is undoubtedly the best for competition. It's like you're not even trying. You think so highly of yourself without even considering any other possibility. Even if your idea of what is most competitive was a seemingly-obvious truth, how could anyone ever take you seriously in relation to this game?
You are the least enjoyable part of the AL Brawl community (and you KNOW how I feel about Meta Knight--that must be saying something!). You have caused so much aggravation, and you've been the single largest waste of time this community has ever had the displeasure of putting up with. It sounds so difficult for you to put up with us--You can't even imagine how much worse it is for everyone else. You should feel completely embarrassed for your negative attitude and laughable attempts to justify yourself. For your sake, if not for ours, either think twice before posting anything negative about this community again, or continue to live in this imaginary world where your current association has had any positive effect on this group and stop posting altogether.
Speak for yourself when it comes to not knowing how to fight against the character. IMO, after a while, it's really like riding a bike.I'd like to share my thoughts on a topic that will unfortunately probably cause an argument.
This is about the MK ban we have in AL, and why I feel we should make him legal once again.
Most argue that he's "unfair". The reason behind that is because he's so strong on so many stages. However, if you take him to neutrals, you can actually have a fighting chance if you learn the MU.
I'm not at all saying MK isn't cheap. However what I am saying is that if AL doesn't make MK legal, then we will all get wrecked by him when we go to OoS tournaments. This is a proven fact already, because none of us, or most of us don't know how to play against MK anymore, and get overwhelmed when we go against a decent MK in tournament.
Another thing to note when thinking about making him legal, is how drastically it will change OUR tournaments. I've thought about this, and honestly, it won't change them that much. If you look at all the known players in AL, none of them have, do, or will main MK. So it's not as if you're always going to see a MK in GFs like you do in other states.
Making him legal imo will just allow us to get comfortable with MK enough to where when we DO go to OoS tournaments, we'll be prepared to go against MK mains.
So if you would, give me your opinions on the MK ban, and tell me if there is a chance MK will someday be legal again.
yeah like luis said if you want to learn how to play against metaknight, you can always play against me on wifi and we can play for hours where ill just use meta knight because i love to use him. i mean, just let me know if you want to do that and i'd be down to set that up. imo wifi isnt nearly as bad as some ppl make it out to be. even Kismet plays wifi sometimes ;pI'd like to share my thoughts on a topic that will unfortunately probably cause an argument.

I've heard of this being a thing. (BSL and Ryker, I've begun using that colloquialism.)Kismet actually plays a good amount of WiFi these days, I think.
I am not metaknight. I resent that.I live in Huntsville, AL.
Also, I'm bringing this up, because (I) want to main MK. However, it's hard to do that when there are so many MK ban tournaments around here. I don't want to play him because he's "cheap" I want to play him because I like going off of my reaction time, and not always having to read my opponent. I mean, yes, you still have to do that, but there is far more reaction time involved. This is why I prefer melee over brawl, however, brawl has a much larger community, so I play both.
If you live kinda close to Huntsville, I would love to host a MK legal tournament with you.
As for wi-fi, I lag entirely to much. Sorry
yeah pretty much this.lol slam good times XD. wifi isn't bad at all, really. the input lag can be dealt with easily if you're patient and know how to play the game but when it freezes no one should be playing in that nonsense >=(
A lot like yoshi's f-tilt in meleeI don't actually know what Yoshi's F-Tilt looks like in N64.
Pretty much anything for me.Birmingham, what days would you be best available for a Smash night at GameBox? It could be every week or every other week, and we'd even do some low key tournaments.
BUT HIS F-TILT IS SO SWAG, THOUGH.Olimar and Zelda are the only two people I can think of who have lackluster f-tilts.
Zelda's is really slow and Olimar's is both laggy, and pretty much his worst option in a given scenario UNLESS he's Nolimar.
but then nair or u-tilt would still probably be better to get them the hell away from you so you can pluck Pikmin.
I'm not sure why I randomly came back to this topic.BUT HIS F-TILT IS SO SWAG, THOUGH.
<3I'm not sure why I randomly came back to this topic.
But I approve this message. Olimar is so swag tier, it's ridiculous.
Peach .Olimar and Zelda are the only two people I can think of who have lackluster f-tilts.

That remark should explain why an MK ban is warranted, rofl. I will go to my grave saying that MK is a menaceI live in Huntsville, AL.
