A game's measure of competitive viability is determined primarily by the amount of depth at the highest level.

At Brawl's highest level, the depth is "Pick MK, or someone who barely competes with him."

With MK gone, the list of viable characters largely increases, because having more viable characters means there are more matchups that matter, which means there is more depth.

 

[Croi]

With MK gone, Marth becomes S tier.

That's what you really want, isn't it? Don't lie.

EDIT: Nick, I would prefer that you use the term "sexually challenged" instead.

I will remember that and abuse it.

Humour me when I say "Why does depth matter?"

 

[Raziek]

With MK gone, Marth is still -1 with Diddy and Dedede, and even with Falco, ICs, DK, ROB, Wolf, and apparently Pikachu (according to a certain Floridian rodent)

I'll humour you, Nick.

Depth makes a game BETTER. It makes it last LONGER. It makes the game require more skill to play, there is more to learn, more to do, more skill involved, more competition. The list goes on.

That's the main reason I recommend large stage lists. Depth.

He also loses on multiple stages, and apparently according to meep and neo ics beats marth.

Every char has a counter without MK.

 

[Raziek]

I'd agree to ICs beating Marth on a small starter stage list, or under any situation where ICs can go to both SV and BF or PS1.

If the starter is fair, it's even. Most starter systems are heavily lopsided towards ICs though.

 

[~Firefly~]

I had to play an ICs on a 3 stage starter list before. It was stupid. -.-*

[Lythium]

Is that an albatross?

Not at any point did I say technical depth.

Two very different things.

 

[Nysyarc]

Is that an albatross?

Nah it's beak is too long and it's wingspan isn't big enough relative to it's body. Looks more like some kind of pelican.

 

[Lythium]

Ah, you are correct.

Apparently, an albatross bears a more striking resemblance to a seagull.

 

[Seagull Joe]

I think that's a pelican.

 

[~Firefly~]

...You namesearched "seagull", didn't you? -.-*

 

[swordgard]

...You namesearched "seagull", didn't you? -.-*

Exposed XD.

 

[Raziek]

...You namesearched "seagull", didn't you? -.-*

Makes sense, since you can't search "man" since it's 3 characters.

I think I'll start saying Seagull in random threads to mess with him.

 

[Seagull Joe]

...You namesearched "seagull", didn't you? -.-*

I namesearch quite frequently.

Makes sense, since you can't search "man" since it's 3 characters.

I think I'll start saying Seagull in random threads to mess with him.

And I'll pop in all of them .

 

[Lythium]

Seagull seagull seagull.

Testing, testing.

 

[Pey]

After the second melee tourney I went to. I got second, only losing to the guy from NFLD. It wasn't official or anything, cause there was no power rankings, but whatever.

yeah, good job on those. I have them taped if you want em. I never watch em (hate seeing myself lose).

You're missing the part were the technical depth adds option, aka depth.

Take for example, washdash OoS; it's not the fact that it's technically challenging, just that it adds an option when you're stuck in your shield.

I'm not arguing melee above brawl, just that you're wrong in suggesting technical depth doesn't convert in part to, "real depth" (meaning the other of those "two very different things" you were referring to).

 

[Raziek]

I'm aware that technical depth also adds plenty of depth, but I was correcting Parker in that it's not what I was arguing. My initial argument for depth refers to competitive/strategic depth, rather than depth provided by control options. (technical depth) Both add depth, but I was referring to removing MK adding strategic depth, because of how many additional characters become much more viable.

 

[Syko_Lemming]

Makes sense, since you can't search "man" since it's 3 characters.

Your two cents?

yeah, good job on those. I have them taped if you want em. I never watch em (hate seeing myself lose).

Hmmm... Weren't those uploaded somewhere?
EDIT:I would like to have them though.

 

[Raziek]

Your two cents?

?

I was saying that's why he can't namesearch with "Seagull Man", because "Man" is too short a word, so gets omitted.

 

[Syko_Lemming]

I know, I know. I'm just saying 'cents' cause the other two versions of that word were already said. Don't judge me.

 

[Nysyarc]

I have to judge you though, cause I'm pretty sure nobody said "scents". And they're not all pronounced identically anyways, so it's not like there, their and they're.

 

[Lythium]

What about "sense"?

 

[Syko_Lemming]

'Sense' was said by jordan.

screwyouCraysyn found another one though. Good job.screwyou


Edit) I pronounce them pretty similar though

 

[Pey]

Your two cents?

EDIT:I would like to have them though.

you have a good memory. yeah those were uploaded but there were a few i didn't upload. if you want em i will mail or give them to you next time i see you.

 

[Croi]

So.

How about that Nova Scotia Smash Scene.

Lively stuff, isn't it.

 

[Lythium]

It suuure is.

 

[Nysyarc]

We should do a tournament this month, instead of that Ontario trip which is pretty much not happening at this point.

Already been done.....the spreading of the word...not the balls >__>

 

[Syko_Lemming]

I'd actually still be up for the ontario tourney if anyone else actually wanted to fly.

 

[billybeegood]

bump......

 

[Lythium]

No, you.

 

[Croi]

Get hyped for the 26th of March.

 

[Lythium]

Why is that?
