Aside from fixing a bunch of Kirby hats, it is mostly non-invasive bugfixes. Let me know what you think. As of now though, assume we'll be using 3.0.
I don't know about you but Mewtwo and Roy no longer causing lag is a pretty big deal and therefore the Kirby hats aren't the only important fix. :p

Why in the world would you stick to a buggier version? No way it should use 3.0. That undermines anyone who has been practicing with the 3.01 changes already.

I don't think any of the changes are enough to warrant somebody to complain about "not being able to prepare for it." The bug fixes are nice and people also are going to want to use their alternate costumes.

Lag from new and exciting characters is completely unacceptable. 3.01 master race.

The lag isn't really relevant to this decision. Apex is officially singles only.

Mewtwo vs Roy or dittos of those characters potentially lag on a few stages like GHZ, Skyloft, and Dracula's Castle

Honestly, I can see 3.0 being a huge problem for teams with the lag issues. 3.01 is the better option, even though its kind of new, it will be new for everyone, and everyone will have to adapt.

I think 3.01 should be used, mostly because of how the patch deal with kirby, fixing hats and giving him another option through grounded horizontal cutters. While I'm not a kirby main (or going) I think I would be pretty frustrated if I had spent time incorporating new tools into my gameplay, and then said tools wouldn't be available.

For the sake of ensuring model lag has no factor in any matches as well as the kirby fixes I think 3.01 should be used.

Is there any sort of estimate for when this'd be decided? I'm good with it changing but would prefer to know sooner rather than later for when I'm practicing.

if 3.01 changed more than it did, i might be in favour of sticking with 3.0. i haven't even played 3.01 yet, so i can't comment on how drastic the changes are, but from what i've heard, the changes are largely unnoticable, and the few noticeable ones are indisputably positive changes, like certain characters not lagging

upgrade to 3.01 imo. for the sake of pushing pm forward

No matter how small the change or "big fix" theres always the possibility that something unintended was changed. 2.6b contained a link change that was an "animation fix" on his boomerang that actually removed one of the angles he could throw the boomerang at. When im spending hundreds to get across the country, its extremely unfair to switch the version of the game I signed up to play months ago this last minute. 3.0 should definitely be played over 3.01

From what I've gotten, 3.1 was mAde o get rid of game freezing bugs and lag, right?

By that logic, what reason is there NOT to use it?

We cant be sure that the intended changes didnt affect anything else. Its too early to know if there could be another bug or exploit that these changes create
