Yeah regarding commentary I specifically said hey Alex i'm looking for reliable peeps since my friends are all busy in matches. Then he yelled "HEY WHO WANTS TO DO COMMENTARY".

._. Just ask anyone close to me though, since then i've been making a list of commentators and commentator pairs. I've asked Xyro and Karna if they'd be willing to step on the mic.

Who I allow onto the stream station now is FULLY my choice. No more randies.

Edit: Also no fault on Alex's part he just wasn't aware of what I was looking for. And by the time I tried to quiet it down it was already too late, we had ambitious new players and I didn't want to crush their dreams... We only do that in bracket, guys.

Idk play diddy
at least you know what your up against.
In fact I hope it'll be all diddy so there are no surprises.

In all seriousness though I an not complaining. Playing vs diddy is teaching me to be more patient.

Alsm been mod for a couple weeks now for a character he barely plays, the new wave of mods lately are just to fill in the void for character boards that have nobody.
Hell, a good portion of mods are like 2013/2014 members, I think one mod added just for being incredibly active in one single social Smash 4 thread.

Edit: nvm, was. He mod of jr. boards now for some reason.

Having new gens being mods over other new gens sounds pretty gross.

So by posting alot and being active you could be a mod in a board.



Looks like Onion is on his way to being Houston mod.

Considering the current state of smashboards, activity could be a deciding factor. Mods don't have to be knowledgeable or ancient to do a good job. You just have to be attentive to your board and fair about how you use your powers. Its not hard and just because someone joined smashboards in the past 500 days doesn't mean they don't have mod experience elsewhere or....common sense.

Although I have to wonder why a Diddy is modding the Palutena boards :smirk:

Nah, you just need to suck up to the right staff members to get the position. I've seen plenty of unqualified/bad people become mods.

Heaven forbid if any were volunteer mods. Those end up being the worse and have zero background.

BC come to shockwave with me this friday. There you can experience Diddy and custom moves. I fear for the spectators, but I trust you will do what must be done.

He won't do well. Villager is bad and his customs do not stop hoo-ha.

They don't, but they make it way less likely to happen. That trip sapling does not go away, and the exploding balloons make getting villager off the ledge an even greater task. BC will probably camp on the ledge the entire match while the diddy tries to figure out how to get past that bs lol.
@ Teshie U Teshie U have you shown BC the setup you were doing to me the other day? Edguarding by ledgestalling? xD Those balloons explode inside the stage pretty dang far. Add a trip sapling right near the ledge and you're good to go.

Can villager trip on his own sapling? I'm guessing not.

I assume he knows something about it already. Its not that hard to deal with. Unless you are Sheik. It pretty much forces you to trade hard with 1 option or another if you want to kill him.

He actually sacrifices absurd recovery distance (and his ledge snap) to control space better. I like him better that way.

Counter timber's sapling is the bane of dash grabbing and the full tree can be an annoyance to any other close range tactics. He doesn't really sacrifice anything notable by switching to that however.

Wii U patch likely this week. 3DS was patched and got some bugfixes. Unconfirmed reports are all over the place as usual but notable rumors include:
-Link jab fixed
-Palutena Super Speed fixed
-Sonic backthrow getting an absurdly small nerf
-Replay sharing possible
-Sharing Mii fighters
-Impossible/harder to obtain duplicate custom moves

Obviously Samus and Falcon will love this.

Samus, Falcon, Ganon and Megaman would have strong kill setups off of this for sure.

Its just a rumor based on solo 3DS players though. Expect more detailed news overnight. I expect at least one thing to make the community majorly salty.
