So would a good samus:
-perfectly space utilt, ftilt, etc.
-perfectly sweetspot with both bup and grapple
Theoretically speaking, of course.
well that and more, obviously. You need to play with your head if you're aiming to do well with samus
And another question.
Hugs is considered, if i may say, the leader in the religion of Samus that so many of us follow.
If he were to create a new tech. called Hugging or something like that, would Hugging be incorporated in
Samus's metagame immediately? Hugs is highly regarded as the best Samus to this date, so would that mean that everything he does, is basically to the point, always the right thing to do?
Hugs already discovered hugging lol... but its in barwl so we'll say no more about that.
Basically, if anyone wins with something, it's a good idea to use it. It would also depend on the usefullness of said move. Lately we've been discussing possible small changes to Samus's metagame, like SHFFMC and wavebombing, but none have really impacted samus at all, especially to the extreme UpB OoS did. If anyone, hugs or not, developed something new with this amount of impact, and PROVED it to be a metagame changing technique, it would be implemented quickly.
If this is true, the only right way to play samus is to play Samus identically to Hugs'.
I like to think of the metagame as a melting pot of ideas. There can be a central contributor, but most of the times even they don't have a playstyle completely developed on their own. Immitation isn't always the best tactic reguardless. HugS's style is best suited to him, and not necessarily to someone else.
Samus also has a lot of variety between her players' playstyle. I find.
Is there any chance a new player might come about and potentially change the way we view Samus today? Or has Hugs set the bar for Samus's metagame, or should i say...Hugs IS the bar.
Hugs is the bar, but in the sense that no one has topped him yet. The closest someone's come to changing the way samus is played is spaceballs. Most of the time it isn't so much the character, but the player. I'm sure if mango spontaniously started playing samus he'd ****.
Yeah i know some deep thinking, you can tell how bored i am right now.
