Lol interesting thread but i think the question is wringly formulated.
I have seen girls play smash, heck even some of my girlfriends have played smash when we reunite to hagn out or something.
The question is, if there will be girls with enough dedication and talent to be able to compete and kick serious azz.
I started playing smash with my little sister years ago, and because of that she evolved with my help to the point that she plays above average for being a girl, im talking about Shfl, wavedash, Bomb jumps and thats sort of things (she mains link).
In one national tournie, she registered together with me, just to cheer me up, and in the end she was even interviewed On TV because she kicked some serious azz in the first Pool rounds. Sadly she didnt made it because her group was one of the hardest, but she even fought against other girl and won.
Yeah she lost against the real pros, but sincerely... to be beaten by a girl in front of a whole bunch of smashers is a real REAL shame,,,, and is worst when she is using adv tech in your face lol.
I don't give female gamers special treatment. My ownage doesn't discriminate on the basis of gender.
Lol, that reminds me in one occation i had to fight on team battle against one guy and his sister, which was a nicely looking girl btw....but well like you said, it was they or us :D
