Does it Insult You When People Play Brawl Horribly?

[BrawlerHarrison]

You should fight friends who have just gotten Brawl... They go for Ike or MK and say they rule.

 

[Vyse]

Rofl. It doesn't insult me because I suck equally as bad






Also, why is this in tactical discussion?

 

[jber4life]

When I play my friends who suck. I am not insulted in the least. I encourage them to get better, and they do. And believe it or not, in the long run i have competent opponents to practice against. Once again being an *** Does not pay off.

But Johns do piss me off

 

[Emperor Mario]

It doesnt insult me when people play any game horribly, why should it?

But it annoys me when people invent excuses for losing like saying "you were spaming" or "you chain grapped me". there was one time I chaingrabed a Bowser with King Dedede and he said "these tactics ruin the game".

 

[Thingy Person]

I felt this when I was playing in the first round of the scrubby gamestore tourney for a TV.
My Ike against two Kirbies. Constant down B.
After Fsmashing them for the millionth time, I actually yelled "Stop friggen doing that" out loud.

 

[Retroking2000]

no not at all ,
i hate when i beat someone and they say theyre not trying

Nah. Why would it insult you just because somebody is bad at a game?

If they think they're awesome or similar then...

 

[Annhialator Zero]

Only if they claim they are better than me, a kid once did this in Melee, then when I picked Marth he chose Mewtwo.

I didn't take ANY damage in a four stock game.

 

[Roihu]

That's kinda unfair, isn't it?

 

[JigglyZelda003]

it would have been better if he choose Mew2 and the Kid choose Marth then 4 stocked him. now that would be epic.

 

[Puddin]

"ok idiot, learn the rules of the character before you actually display those poor skills to the public!".

You lost me when you said that, while having said you were on "With Anyone" in the same paragraph.

 

[Onendev]

I don't think it should insult anyone if someone plays bad, some people just like to play for fun, regardless of whether they win or not.

 

[moomoo3455]

This is by far the worst display of sportsmanship ever. If anybody can relate to me on this, then by all means speak up! Okay, so I have this friend who's obsessed with competition. You name it; sports, video games, anything. Now, out of my circle of friends I'm the best out of all of them in smash. I'm not saying this out of arrogance, but I can prove it to them on many accounts. Well every time I play this certain friend of mine, he ALWAYS complains during the game saying statements like, "Why won't my controller do what I tell it to do." or "Why won't my tilts work" or my all time favorite "I DODGED THAT!" In fact, he says that pretty much every match he plays in! Nothing is as annoying as when someone has to blame their shortcomings on hardware. Unless your buttons sticks or your analog is constantly pushed in one direction you have no right to blame the controller. Morons. Also, when playing does he drop smash terms to sound intellectual and versed in the game.

When he loses he won't admit defeat. Earlier in the summer we had a bet going whether or not he could beat me. I beat him, count 5 games. yet he said that he was out of practice and that it didn't count. Nothing annoys me more playing games in general when somebody can't admit defeat. And saying that you're better than someone when you've beaten them once out of maybe 4 matches played is just ignorance. Seriously, you can't win them all. Sometimes it's better to lose so you know that there's still room for improvement.

 

[Sgt. Baker]

MooMoo, I understand where your coming from. I have an annoying friend like that too. The best part....he uses Meta Knight and I still beat him and then he blames it on something in the room.

But it really doesn't bother me when peiople pllay bad. I actually find it funny when people play bad as Meta Knight though

 

[JigglyZelda003]

everyone has that one friend who will complain about their shortcomings like its a not them but a cheap move. like when people can't dodge Zeldas fireball or stupidly jump into her Usmash, or get ***** consistently by the Peach Dair to any other aerial, or you gimp them and they complain even though they do the same thing. just more fail on them and even more reasons to say to them no johns. >__>

 

[¯\_S.(ツ).L.I.D._/¯]

i feel insulted, about a month ago i hosted a small torney at my house and you could tell one of my friends was pressing random buttons because every now and then he'd pause the game. it was uber annoying.

 

[Sosuke]

If it insulted me every time I saw a person play Brawl badly, I'd be pissed of for most of my life.

 

[eyestrain92]

It makes me lol. It makes me lol hard. I love givin' anyone arrogant their come-upins'.

 

[Lucarioowl]

yes especially when they play my main like a complete noob

 

[moomoo3455]

It insults me when people who accidently kill themselves by falling off the stage use that as an excuse when they lose. You can't blame luck for that. It was your own lack of concentration and/or failure to handle basic controls that led to your demise, morons

 

[Toadsanime]

That's kinda unfair, isn't it?

Uh... what's kinda' unfair?

 

[Foshy]

I usually just lol at them, but i hate it when after 15 wins in a row i pick random just for fun, get someone i suck with, lose and they brag about how good they are and how they pwn me =_=

 

[Vect0r]

my friend I usually brawl with always spams Fox's Fire Fox.
and he picks Sonic a lot too, just to spam neutral B in the air.

He's good at Ike though. Very good. He even beat me once, but that was because I used Marth, and I really, REALLY suck as Marth.

 

[Ntei]

If i play with a noob i try to play like a noob myself, it is more fun (and i also lose sometimes) this way.

 

[BrawlerHarrison]

If it did insult you, and you played this friend of mine.. You'd probably cry.

 

[TigerWoods]

I was at a gamestop and this kid was crying because the cursor didn't folow whenever he moved the wii mote around. I have not lived untill that day...

 

[N M E]

I only get insulted if some sand bag while fighting me.


That's is why I NEVER want to play isai in brawl or melee.

Spoiler

If anyone ****ing sigs this i'll kill em

 

[Tien2500]

No I don't get offended... Why would I? I'm sure Michael Jordan doesn't get offended when he sees kids playing basketball in their backyard and Jimmi Hendrix (if he were alive) wouldn't take offense to my mediocre guitar playing.

In Melee I was good within my circle of friends but I didn't play online (obviously) or go to tournaments or anything so I kept on thinking I was good until I played a tournament level player and then I learned better.

 

[Darkwashu]

Yes, yes it does.
"I IZ TEH AUTOMATIC WINNAR CUZ I UZE SNAKE!"
Ever hear that from someone who stinks as Snake?

THIS
I hear this FAR to much

@Topic,it depends if they think they're good.

 

[AlexOFranco]

What pisses me off is when you go to online team match and you get a match up of 2 decent players vs. you and a taunt spammer. my bro was using Fox and had a taunting ******* of a Wario (not that Wario isn`t Bad-***) And my brother was stuck 2 on 1. the ArseHole had -4 points at end. My brother did all the damage and got hold of 2 LANDMASTAHS. My brother even saved that Wario from death by catching him with the barrel of the cannon as he was falling to his death. at the end my brother won by 1 point.

 

[JigglyZelda003]

nice by your brother though lol. its fun if you end up with a taunter partner who will actually hit people if they come too close and you can defend them effectively. >__>

 

[Neogen]

I don't get mad at someone for being bad. Some people are just naturally bad sometimes. I've seen some horrible people, but it wasn't their fault they were horrible. When I first plated smash bros. 64, I was terrible, but it was understandable. I didn't know how to recover with ness, so I died a lot as him. As for getting mad, I only do when they go on about how good they are. Some kids feel proud about how good they are, so unless they're saying, "I'm amazing and there's no way you can beat me!" I won't get mad.

 

[i.E.]

Meh...I wouldn't really be mad. Honestly, I was there with melee at one point, where I just destroyed my friends, and I talked ALL this ****.....

I sucked ***. lol.
I didn't even know what wavedashing was.
I didn't know what L-canceling was.
I didn't even know what smashboards were.

Yea, I know...crazy.

Granted, this was 5 years ago (2003), so once i finally started following competitive smash, I got a hell of a lot better. At the same time, I realized I wasn't sh** in melee compared to "pro" players. Also, you have to remember, this game (melee and brawl) isn't aimed at "us"; It's not aimed at competitive gamers. It's aimed at a casual audience, so is it really wrong for a casual who beats other casuals to think he's good? lol?

That's my take anyway.
*shrugs*

Two wrongs don't make a right. Don't lower yourself to a button-smashing level.

It's aimed at a casual audience, so is it really wrong for a casual who beats other casuals to think he's good?

Correct, which is why I'm not insulted by people playing Brawl 'badly'.

 

[redgreenblue]

Are you kidding?!? I ****in LOVE when people claim they're good at the game then suck massively. Then they get three stocked and their attitude changes completely. Once they figure out they suck they either stop playing, keep playing but improve, or keep playing and not talk ****. Plus there's nothing more fun than 0 damage KOing someone with ness and just d-throw and b-throw.

Or they come up with unacceptable excuses as to why they lost.

 

[TheAceOfSmash]

Only if they think they're the best players in the world. And I wish I could say that that's usually not the case, because it is. But there are people who admit they're not very good at the game.

 

[Sean²]

Eh, to be honest it just bores me when my opponent isn't much of a challenge.

 

[Fire!]

I know some of those people, they play as Kirby and "attempt" to use Kirbicide.


It only insults me if the person is not willing to learn to play Brawl and just give up...

 

[Judge Judy]

LOL! Most Kirbys that attempt Kirbycide get footstooled to their death as the person breaks out of swallow.
