MD/VA Tournament Rules of Smash Etiquette
-------------------------------------------------------------
1. Be a huge **** on smashboards, but act like everything is cool in person.
2. If you place poorly in a tournament, you suck. (forever)
3. If you work hard to get better, and you place well, you got lucky and/or everyone else was playing badly. (step it up MD/VA!)
4. If you aren't winning, drop your main for metaknight.
5. If you stop attending tournaments, trash-talk more. (No one can beat you if you don't go!)
6. Money match, money match, money match!
this thread basically describes this list, especially 1 LOL

I don't hate anyone on these forums, lol... But seriously though, calling someone ugly chu? Only girls do that in cat fights, lmao. Speaking of girls, I seriously think you'd have everyone fooled if you put a wig on. Anyway, the next time you can't handle my justified criticism do yourself a favor and don't switch to personal insults because unfortunately I dominate you in that as well.

I just wanted to rant a little bit about MD/VA. First of all, keep in mind I'm ChuDat and I can only see this from my perspective. I've never been a lower class tourney goer before and all my life I've always won tournaments. I'm just ranting to get your guys' perspective on this.

So first of all, why are good people in MD/VA teaming with ... "not so good" people? I can understand that they want to team with their "friends", but, these "friends" are ruining any chance a good player might have at possibly winning a doubles tournament, placing well, or earning cash. I just think it's dumb. Sure it's fun once in a while, but teaming with someone who isn't that good over and over again is FRUSTRATING since you would have to carry your teammate the whole time at every tournament. I don't see the fun in that. Do people like losing? lolz.

"Yay! ChuDat and I got 3rd in doubles today!"
- You didn't do anything and you don't have anything to pride yourself in.

Why do tourney commoners ask good people to team? I'm sure you guys want a chance at winning teams. That's cool, but you do realize you are bringing them down and making them carry you right? I'm not saying it's bad for a person to ask someone like me to team, that's fine.

I just feel that people of equal skill level should be teaming with each other. It promotes better competition. Good teams have a chance at placing and having something to pride themselves in. Not so good teams will have something to work on and will continue to improve.

The fruits of a persons labor is an awesome feeling.


Chu, you sound like a Debbie Downer. Let people do whatever they want to do. Sometimes, people go to tournaments to play to win and others go into tournaments to play, win, and have fun, regardless who they're teaming with. Sure, money is on the line, and it's always good to have money, don't get me wrong, but sometimes money isn't the issue.

I have never won a tournament, I probably never will, and I rarely enter tournaments because I know I won't win but I like to have fun and I love playing Brawl with other players because it's fun. And it's because they have fun too.

I have nothing against you. Hell, I don't know you personally, I only met you like once, and I don't know much of you other than you go to/host tournaments.

Like you said you were saying your opinion, I respect it, but now I'm saying mine. I've met some amazing people playing this game, who I consider good friends, and I'd love to team with them, regardless, even if I get carried through out the matches. But as long as I'm having fun, it doesn't matter to me.

It's dumb though. It's just proving how cocky a person can be by letting a good player team with a not so good player (obviously, I'm in this category LOLZ). The fact is, there AREN'T ANY good teams in MD/VA besides MAYBE 2 or 3. They aren't even consistent. The whole purpose of my rant was to get people to start stepping it up in teams and to give me a challenge since I've been winning 99% of teams tournaments in MD/VA. Furthermore, it's to promote healthy competition in MD/VA.

MD/VA is just lazy. You can always go to NJ? Tbh, I don't really think a lot of the brawl players here care much about competitive teams, but just teaming up with friends, regardless of the encouragement you're trying to give. It's like trying to make India and Pakistan become friends. Horrible analogy, but it's what immediately came into mind.

Sure, MD/VA can use a boost, but you have a long way to go.

if by sandbag and not give a **** sure. Its not fun teaming with someone random every tourney and losing cuz you have no chemistry with who ur playing.

AL come back to playing teams whenever hova comes outta retirement. Hes the only teammate ive ever had true chemistry with when i started brawl.

fux singles lol. Its funny how the ic's player in our region only flock to that and not doubles.

ICs = too broken in singles ?

D: lol
obviously lol considering they still lose to mk and snake still in singles. Too bad in singles mk cant just spam tornado all around the stage and shuttleloop on the ground because thats all mk does to play safe when hes about to die.

Not to be a **** or anything but mk is broken in teams. Especially when you have some matches where its 4 mks going at it. 4 mks in a doubles final is ********. At least in ic dittos if the ic player is good **** gets interesting especially when ur trying to desynch their nana.

There was only one time i didnt enter doubles so dont say crap about me not entering teams korn. I have no vendetta against mk in teams I just hate the fact our region switches partners every week, but mk is stupid in teams.

forte + korn needs to happen on a regular basis.

Just so they can think of every lame thing mk can do together as a team. Or if omni played he can fit in any of those combinations.

Anyone remember when omni and m2k teamed LOL SOO DISGUSTING!!! :laugh:

Someone GOOD in teams should train me to be good in teams for brawl. If you wanna be good at something, you have to be around people who are already good at it. which is why it needs to be someone good already. besides im a quick learner. my falcons better than sebs after only 2 months of maining it =D raaaaaaaaape
