Because we aren't allowed to seriously discuss his banning as a community.
On certain stages...
If anything, those annoying Banana Peels need to go...
MK has no free win stage IIRC. Rainbow is really gay but people can beat such as Wario. That's the point of counter picking stages, you counter pick them to have a distinct advantage for your character IE ice climbers on FD.
Except MK on rainbow literally has the biggest advantage of anyone over pretty much every character, if not every character.
Gonna look right now, will edit or reply when done.
), and I highly doubt we will turn this into a flame war. Plus, this is discussing his legality in only BC. So... as basically the only mod that regularly watches this thread, I will hopefully not shoot myself in the foot and say that I will allow people to talk about his legality (try to stick to MSN or other forms of communication if possible, but otherwise, like say we were all voting, you can make a vote here), but ONLY AS FAR AS BEING LEGAL IN THE BC COMMUNITY (i.e. this is not a full brawl community discussion, only a BC community discussion). That said, no flaming, no anything like that. If you want to discuss it, keep the discussion... whatever that word is. Remember, I am a mod, and I can and will infract you if necessary. And remember, we are only discussing his legality in BC.
Responses in bold.I'm here now (got back Sunday, had just enough time to post and go to work, then went straight to sleep, and woke up today and went straight to work).
Okay, I wanted to see if you made it back in one piece and I'm assuming you have which is good.
Unless I change my mind, I am sticking to what I said. I have had enough of trying my hardest against Meta Knight (not to sound... whatever that word is... but sometimes against people I think I am much better than), and they win without even breaking a sweat. I am heavy pro-ban, have been pro-ban ever since like 5 months since the game came out (save for a month where I was indifferent).
I think the word is conceited.
My main logic behind doing this is that I do not play to win, I play the game to have fun (which has probably been VERY obvious with how I've played in nearly every tournament). However, playing against Meta Knight is not fun at all, and makes me not want to play the game anymore, causing me to play terribly in my other matches. I am all for a Meta Knight ban in BC. Jake did bring up a good point about the other competitive players getting destroyed by Meta Knights if we ban him in BC, but I am still in favour of a ban. People can money match or something (or agree to allow Meta Knight in their set). But I have had enough of him, and will forfeit/spam Falcon Punch or GaW side-B, or something stupid like that.
As far as people saying they hate Diddy's Bananas, I love playing against Diddy because his bananas are useless against me. I can catch them in the air 80% of the time (as with any item, though I just recently learned that you cannot catch ROB's Gyro when he down-B shoots it, which gave me unnecessary damage (that means I'm ready for you Brian (Brackets in brackets in brackets just to annoy SKidd))). Anyways, yeah. On the flip side, the very few times I go online, I can't catch items, and I see exactly why people hate Diddy's bananas lol.
I'm the only person who said I disliked those Banana Peels :<. But yeah, it's annoying but it's not really a game changer for me.
Anyways, yes, it is true that talking about Meta Knight's legality is technically banned. The main reason for this is because it becomes a flame war. However, I know BC's players well enough (and we all know each other and are all friends... except for that Aleate guy... such a cruel person
I think the word is Civil. Also, hater qq.
That said, what are people's thoughts on a Meta Knight banned and Meta Knight legal events (i.e. both in a tournament)? That way, people who do not wish to play against Meta Knight what-so-ever have the chance to do that, while people who are indifferent or who play Meta Knight can do so as well. With recent attendance counts, we have more than enough time to do both events as well as other side events.
I don't really care either way, and will be satisfied with either decision. Perhaps to avoid flaming and related conflict, why not create a poll on another site and see what the opinions are? Of course, would >50% be considered the threshold for banning Meta Knight?
Just a suggestion, feel free to throw it out the window.
Lies. MK is so much better than Zelda compared to Mario.Meta Knight is too good. He ***** low tiers, or at least Mario, more so than any other character. It's so unfair
oh man are you gonna be blue yoshi's rival for terrible jokes that everyone has heard a million times before?Rob as in r.o.b. Because you're 2 gud, or rob as in blue yoshi because 64?
i almost 3 stocked ur mk with mario LOLWhoa, is Rob actually serious about something?
Meta Knight is too good. He ***** low tiers, or at least Mario, more so than any other character. It's so unfair
so if i want to be in the "competitive level" i have to play gay,slow and spammer?
hahaha, while i was ****** you, i was singing the whole match lol
beat my mario with mk then you can call me noob.
$10 MM mario vs MK
lol. then beat me in tournaments and MM's. You still owe me $5 for that MM deap! step it upppp.
August I don't think the tier list was even out. Metaknight had only recently shoved Snake off the pedestal in Ankoku's character ranking and "metaknight counters" were popping up all over the place. I believe that every single character has been viewed as a "counter" of metaknight at one time or another by one community or another.
Your reasoning is much more personal for a MK ban than it is a true reason. You can instead take initiative to learn the matchup like I did when I had Falco or Marth problems in melee, instead of just ragequitting if someone goes that character. That's just avoiding the problem you have and your complaining is just going to fuel itself to more hate and stress, since you'd rather be happy in your avoidance of your elephant in the room than help the community get better and past it's problems.
Real talk: The internet needs to take things less personally. This is a real discussion that the community keeps going back to and I think everyone here agrees that banning him in the community before the rest of the brawl community follows suit is a bad idea. Most places that have done that have either unbanned him or stayed far behind the metagame, so the major issue is if this community should be a pro-ban or anti-ban region, or rather discuss and educate (because from what I've seen there are some newer players who I won't name who are making some judgmental statements about the issue) eachother about the whole situation.Anyways, yes, it is true that talking about Meta Knight's legality is technically banned.

I think that this is a terrible idea. Lots of problems with the smash community as a whole (that's 64, melee, brawl, and all the brawl mods) is how much segregation there has been from each community. How many brawl and melee tournaments has there been that feature both communities? I think there was supposed to be one, not sure if that ever happened or not. The MK banned and mk legal events call into question which is the legitimate event and which is the side event? It adds a layer of strife between those who stand strictly behind banned MK and those who stand strictly for legal MK tournaments, and that's just asking for your community to self destruct.
lol @ responding to somebody who can't read what you post
who cares? lol
