Does player sportsmanship exist???

[eyekx]

So i was playing the other day and was practicing the double laser short hop thing and my friends were getting pretty worked up saying that it was not cool to spam the laser haha... I was thinking about this and I too would probably have gotten kinda worked up playing against someone who ran away from me and kept shooting me . This leads me to my question of sportsmanship...I was wondering all of your takes on this...do you spam the laser whenever you can to get that extra damage??? OR is there is some kind of like etiquette that you follow so the pple you play against will want to keep playing with you

No don't spam it, only if your opponent runs off...OK!

Not in friendlies, for in friendlies, the purpose is not win by whatever methods possible. Save laser spamming/camping for tourney play.

You have to practice it at one point or another...I guess just save it for when you're playing with people who aren't douchebags.

friendlies are the matches where you can both practice, and have fun at the same time. go for things you dont normally go for, do things you wouldnt normally do, test things out, etc.

if you are comfortable with laser spamming, etc., and there is no need for practice, dont do it in friendlies, i hate campers.

unless your playing a jiggs, do it all you want. they suck and should die in hell

In freindlies I'll sandbag and hardly spam a laser.

True. I'm just annoyed by people who take camping to an extreme during friendlies, which makes it quite a ***** to play. However, there's such a thing as camping back...

But I see laser camping as a means to purely win, and there's not too much to practice for that particular skill. It's a bit more productive to try out new and novel ideas as opposed to sit on one side of the stage spamming SHDL.

Lasering can be practiced by yourself, really. CPUs make find laser targets for the most part.
