How come there aren't many PM tourneys?

[Isprayaxe]

Imo it seems the characters are more balanced, and the stage variety certainly it better.

I'm not saying we should replace melee or brawl in tournaments with this, but i think it should be included. Also it's pretty accessible and much like melee for people that have not played it before.

What do you guys think

It's a growing beast. At the moment, they have been popping up at a good chunk of tournaments. The thing is, people are still on the fence waiting for the first full release. People are worried that they'll spend time learning a technique/character, only to have it radically change. There's also a few nuisances that are being ironed out on the engine side before most players won't have an objection to playing.

I counted at least close to 10 different tournaments in Tournament Listings subforum that either have P:M as a side event or main event. That's a lot of tourneys, to me. It's really surprising and all of them are upcoming.

It's more successful than I was expecting, tbh. But a better thing would be is if the tournaments holding P:M as an event (side or main) got a good amount of entrants for it. Won't know until they actually happen, but nonetheless, things are actually looking good.

Hold a PM tourney. Then there will be more. Invite your friends. Then they will be bigger tournaments.

Where in Utah do you live? I have a friend who also lives in Salt Lake City, Utah and wants a scene to start growing.

Central Virginia is hosting monthly P:M tournies in conjunction with Brawl and Melee. We get players from both games entering P:M.
