Exactly how grimy is it to chaingrab someone on their last stock after agreeing not to?

[LovinMitts]

Title basically says it all. I've been considering this lately. It's kinda between doing what you gotta do to win, or being a garbage-tier person and knowing it. Thoughts?

If you agreed to not chain grab and the other didn't chain grab, DON'T.

 

[M-Tude]

just remember that if you drop the chain grab then they are gonna go at you with an absolute vengeance. But I would;t do it honestly. Its so super grimy.

You might as well money match someone and not pay them when you lose.

I don't know why you'd ever agree to NOT chaingrab except in non-money match friendlies. That being said, if you told the other person that you wouldn't do something then don't. If this is actually an issue then I just wouldn't make any promises to anyone about refraining from using certain tactics.

It's omega grimy

But low level Sheiks did it to me at nationals so often that I started chain grabbing them well before I started chain grabbing higher level sheiks

aaaaaaaaaa

 

[gmBottles]

It isn't grimy at all in a regular match.

But if you specifically agreed to not chaingrab? That's beyond grimy, that's just plain disrespectful.

 

[Meez]

if CGs are on, go to town, but if you agreed not to, and you're on game 5 last stock then you start CGing, not only are you a bad person, the next time you play that person I promise you they'll CG on the first stock to the last stock.

Wait... there are games where people ban tactics against each other???

It's only really a Sheik ditto thing. There isn't anything holding you to it, but many people find the ditto more fun (or skillful) without chaingrabs.

Serious **** move. If you agreed to chaingrabs then it doesn't matter but if you agreed no chaingrabs then it's pretty much cheating. It's like stabbing your opponent with a knife in a boxing match.

Yeah that's super awful. If you want to chain grab, then just don't agree to it if they ask for no chain grabs. Besides, chain grabs are the optimal punish. Imo, sheik dittos should always consist of chain grabbing because it is the optimal way to play the matchup. Idc if it's boring to watch, or even boring to play. If it's in tournament, it's about winning. Just swallow your pride and play to win
