Gloves while playing - Legal?

[Malart]

I saw a video a while back of somebody showing off the Dragonic Reverse technique, and he mentioned that he wears cloth gloves while playing at tournaments. Is this usually allowed at tournaments, or is it something that differs from tournament to tournament? If so, what about rubber gloves? My fingers get greasy/sweaty easily and slip off of the thumbstick, so I was wondering if that was allowed. Don't know if I'll ever get to go to a tournament (hope so) but if I did, that would be invaluable to me.

I don't see a problem with it.

I wouldn't see why not.

gloves are items: No items in tournaments

JK I don't see why they wouldn't be allowed- they might slightly limit mobility though,

Is it bad that after seeing this thread I want to enter a tournament with Mickey Mouse gloves on? I know it was a legitimate post, and I think that if it helps your play, as long as it isn't an unfair advantage, why wouldn't be allowed?

But I really need to get me a pair of Mickey Mouse gloves.

well idk, It seems to increase my ability to quickly and efficiently execute inputs, especially DJC'd aerials at minimum height with P:M Lucas. maybe I need to relax my fingers more or something, but when I'm making my hands imitate a hummingbird with epilepsy, my finger tends to slide off of the center of the thumbstick, which messes up my directional input when I use tap-jump for the double jump. It gives me horizontal momentum that I don't want sometimes, and screws up the timing. But thanks guys, I'm glad for the reassurance.

Gloves should be banned.

Gloves would actually make me play worse lol

As long as it's not the Power Glove.

That **** is hax.

Some gloves to remove sweating like you were never wearing them. I'd buy for 5 bucks.

I don't see why not. Now I want to put on only one glove and dress as Michael Jackson at tournaments. It would be fun. As long as you don't get cheap gloves that make those annoying sounds, I think it is legal.

Does this mean we can finally ban that broken character and my arch nemesis MARIO that glove-wearing hoodlum?

Gloves are legal they just make you look stupid. Would you like to look stupid when you lose?

Gloves are fine. No reason to ban them. If anything were to be enforced, gloves wouldn't be top of the list of things to improve in the tourney scene to begin with.

I've had a single glove that belonged to a pair of gloves about 5 years ago, but now i only have the left hand, kinda dissapointed when i could only find the one, so i put it on, and i pretty much game with it on all the time now. Its one of those ones that you can take the top off and have your fingers out, but the only problem is that the thumb part doesn't come off. >_>
