General Discussion & Character Rankings

[Attila_]

i tapped that on the end. i just thought it should be mentioned, cause its the fasted desynch by a couple of frames.

not making a point out of it, just putting it on top of the videos of his awesomeness.

 

[EverAlert]

oh also, kakera is the only player in the world to consistently use the desynch he invented. its crazy hard; i can only do it on 2/3 speed.

It's not hard and he didn't invent it, ICs players just overcomplicate it and make it difficult for themselves to learn. It's a standard SND into shield, nothing more. He's even said himself it was an already-known desync.

Also what Shaya said.

sry, Attila. </3

 

[Attila_]

snd into shield? its back --> forward --> whatever. just has to be done incredible fast.

everyone's entitled to their own opinions. im not fussed.

 

[EverAlert]

fyi:

snd -is- back->forward->whatever "very fast"

 

[Shaya]

attilas right, opinions are our own

Kakera may well be a super duper ics (he definitely isnt bad by any means) that the WORLD has never truly seen.

 

[EverAlert]

could say the same for lain tbh, technically.

dw we'll all see for ourselves how **** kakera is firsthand soon enough. be warned attila he has a lot to live up to, I expect to not even be able to kill his nana in a ditto (lolsif).

 

[Attila_]

theres a ditto in one of those four vids. ics dittos are so lol

Discuss.

 

[Zero]

There's nothing to discuss.

 

[luke_atyeo]

lol, alzi's got a post there, I didnt know sakura made smash bros?

 

[Stray_]

sakura from street fighter?

also, wario dittos are even funnier

 

[Attila_]

i lolled. at least capcom try to make their games 'real'.

 

[luke_atyeo]

nah I'm pretty sure it was that other sakura, she made brawl out of cards

 

[Stray_]

even if a game wasn't designed with competitive play in mind, (assuming that's what you were meaning by real), If playing it that way is fun then whats the problem?

I find smash more fun than street fighter, so everyone else can keep their 'real' games

 

[tedeth]

Look. Smash, be it brawl or melee, differs from the description and standards that a traditional fighting game adheres to.

Does that make it any less of a game? No. Nobody's arguing that. But to classify it with games like Street Fighter and Tekken is wrong. In my mind, Smash if far more strategic than a traditional fighting game. It relies on the player to concentrate far more on their positioning, vertically and horizontally, in relation to their opponent, and in that regard, allows for for more options both defensively and offensively that the player has to know and understand.

Do the characters "fight"? Well sure they do, I guess that's where people say "clearly it's a fighting game", but we need to make the distinction between our beloved games and the "Traditional style fighters". You could almost call Smash a fighting/strategy/platformer/beat 'em up.

 

[M]

Ted nailed it.

Besides, fighting game or not, it can still be competitive, right?

 

[xXArrowXx]

competive single player rpg??
smash bros is a fighter, its more like the characters push each other of the stage.. which sounds like a minigame tho =P

 

[Shaya]

Fire Emblem is somewhat a competitive single player rpg...

People compete in terms of strategy, debate, etc..
People are still competing on the most highest level strategy to get S ranks for Fire Emblem 7 (that games getting quite old now)

Speedruns make everything competitive.

[J-Birds]

Hey so i just setup my wii for the first time after thriller and when i ejected the disk i found a genuine copy of brawl inside which obviously isnt mine. So whoever used my wii on the 2nd day it is probably theirs. Condog do i remember you asking to use it cause if your missing your brawl iv most likely got it.

 

[Shaya]

MMm I didnt see anyone say they were missing brawl discs...
only melee discs.

 

[EverAlert]

Final Destination.

Still a Platform Fighter, as in the platformer genre. Also >implying FD isn't just one big platform.

Lol, that song was silly xD

 

[Pete278]

Speedrun life.

This raises the concept of 'is it always a good thing to win?'.

 

[Vyse]

Would set it to autoplay, but it has some coarse language, so don't play it without parental guidance for younger viewers! (lol)
