Kindly explain to me how you can justify all those ridiculous gimmicks on that stage in competitive play. Or rather this would be better: explain to me why it was banned in the first place and what was the rationale behind unbanning it. If you can persuade me I'll change my mind. I'm willing to listen to the logic behind it. If you respond with another insult then I will be forced to conclude you are extremely biased and beyond reason after all.
I'd get it locked, and start a new one.
Challenge accepted.
Hello. I have not posted on or even browsed this forum since shortly after Brawl's release. I am making this post today to say that this is amazing. I laughed at this, and the responses to it even more so. Keep up the good work. We all miss you.
Just have so them the dumbest stuff MK can do right off the bat lol
You can, it's just really hard. Especially because some of the arguments to keep MK legal from the 2008/2009 days are no longer valid, such as "you just have to learn the MU."
Correct sir.
This is really stupid and why the brawl community is silly.
I agree with everything Mekos has said.
Mekos(and FAE), just teach M2K Lucas. Eventually people will think he's broken and want to ban him. You can come back to this post and quote me.
Good, I was ready to jump on people for their autoimmunity, not being able to talk about stuff to the open public about why you made decisons and getting rid of PUBLIC opinion on subjects is rather DUMB.
Sadly, I agree. I witness bandwagon/group think way way way too much, and not even video game related :/ (see pop music, dress styles, internet memes, the list goes on.)
He's gonna pick up a bad character and make us ban him too.
This, damnit, I hate D3 :/Dedede approves even more.
moon landing. No
M2K was the best in melee and HE was the ENTIRE metagame for a long time. Everyone who played Marth/Sheik (and kinda fox/falco) basically mimics M2K and his meta game. I know Mango reshaped the game, but for a while, it was M2K.
This
Everyone knows Falco is the most broken, cheapest character in melee.
You still haven't answered my main question. Why was it banned in the first place and why was it unbanned later? If you don't know that's okay. I just thought you would. So far all you've done is repeat what you said earlier regarding it.
I don't mean to sound rude, but that's an awful scrub mentality against infinites. The reason we legalized all infinites was because it makes no sense to ban some infinites and not others. We can't ban some just because "they're gay" or "gayer", as that's pretty subjective. Furthermore, banning all infinites in general cannot be compared at all to MK being banned. Infinites are not even terribly common. Let's not forget, Marth/D3 can only infinite about 5-7 characters total between both, while ICs can infinite the whole cast.
Was being the operative word. He is not and will not be the end all, be all of Smash. He's a good player, props to that, but to say that regardless of what anyone else did and any differences to the meta game that his never playing MK would have made is a ridiculous statement to make and insulting to any player who is anywhere near the top.
Finally some positivity.
It was not banned in Unity ever, so no, I cannot answer that. I can tell you while Hyrule was banned in Unity, though, if you wish.
The Japanese catered their ruleset to MK quite a bit (most notably a super conservative stage list only because of MK), and the biggest factor of all is that they do not play for money. That kills a lot of the incentive to play gay as possible, notice how most of the MKs are aggressive in Japan. I can't see M2K playing ungodly gay in most of his matches if it weren't for $1,000+.
Haha, pretty much my reaction as well,I'm still buzzing about the ban. At first, I was like...
But then I saw that it was CONFIRMED, so then I was like...
There's certainly going to be a lot of Snake, Diddy and Marth players come January and a few weeks after. There's no denying that. I just wanna see who takes the new top spot once the "power struggle" dies down. I have a feeling it'll probably still be those three (which isn't going to be all that bad), but here's hoping for a surprise.
Kaos is as good as some high level MKs, that's for sure. He's still not at the same level as an M2K or Anti.
This decision will make such
M2K is the only top player that has said he would quit. NO ONE and I literally mean no one else, has said they are quitting or going to quit.
As I've said before: "good riddance to bad rubbish."
