This is why Xyro fails, and I won't go to any tourney he sponsors. I don't main MK anymore but he's biased and doesn't understand Meta Knight and his relationship to the metagame. It should be 40 ledgegrabs for everyone, not just mk.
Let me help you out since you are obviously a..............nvm
NOTHING in this game(cept a meta ditto) stop TRUE meta planking/ledge stalling. if you stop it with any other character, the meta sucks and planking/ledge stalling. The next best planking/ledge stalling is from GW and pit. But both can be stopped by MANY characters. GW/pit/Samus/toonlink and more.
See the difference? i doubt you so ill explain it for you.
1. If u DO not restrict meta when it comes to planking/stalling you get meep or gnes vs metwoking.
2. If you DO NOT restrict meta when it comes to planking/stalling you MUST ditto him to counter it......then look what you did. You added another meta to the scene/results...ect. So at the end of the day what did you do? 40 ledge grab limit HELPS control metaknights ledge abuse.
So what you do is you put the planking/stalling rules on him so he CANNOT abuse it to get free wins. i dont attach it to pit/gw or any other char cause it can be stopped if you CP chracters........aka play smash the way its supposed to be played: CPing.
As for stage restrictions, its a test. Since metaknight has ZERO bad stages(at worst its EVEN) then him CPing neutrals doesnt hurt him now does it? BF and Lylat are VERY good meta stages so if anything he can still have stages that give him an advanatge. over all, ive decided banning meta is the BEST idea but its very hard to get people to understand WHY. So i put all of these restrictions on him as a test.
PS: you called me biased. you think by me putting restrictions on meta it will help my samus? WRONG. DDD and OLIMAR are harder to face than metaknight. You also said i dont understand METAKNIGHT and his relationship to the METAGAME. You didnt even use metagame right so i KNOW you have no clue on what YOU just said.
