I bet they were like "man this is gonna be so much work" but then got through almost all of it really quickly and were like "Okay, not much work... so, let's have some games guys?"

M8. 1 v 1 Me. Final Destination. No Items. Fox Only.


I should go check the OP but... do we have an opinion for G&W and Pikachu in doubles this tournament? From my searchings the team seems to be excessively game-breaking to the point where NAKAT said "keep this team legal if you want doubles to die" right after having a 3-minute set with a bunch of peeps.

Alternatively seeing as there's a thread now dedicated to the research of this team's validity, we could always use the tournament as part of the sample space. :p

But seriously, i don't know what to think of the whole Pikachu/ G&W team combo. There has to be a hard counter for them somwhere...

As much as I respect the thought and the intention behind it, I feel like this is the exact reason they could be so damaging. I loved brawl but i'm not afraid to admit that Meta Knight probably should have been banned early on (it's ironic that once upon a time I was an avid supporter of Meta Knight's inclusion) because he broke much of the game's balance and single-handedly ruled over the tiers with an iron fist. Like seriously, very many characters who had excessively bad match-ups against MK simply couldn't go very far, you know?

In regards to this team, stuff like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIuNHdPUpMw&list=UU5WNBHwgluAwWJE5QV-5_TA
- makes me feel like maybe we should keep this team out of our meta until we can assure they won't destroy our doubles scene ahah. Perhaps for this tournament it would be fine because we're just starting out and it's generally better to begin with innocence and prove guilty rather than it being the other way around; however I have a strong suspicion that this team will rule the doubles meta in a similar fashion to Brawl MK.

I'm not sure what other combos have been tested with G&W too. If it's a recurring issue with several characters then maybe it's G&W in general that needs to be looked at, which would really frustrate me personally because I don't like banning a character outright (even if I realise MK should have been banned, I don't have to like the restriction that puts on players).

*le sigh*

I don't know what to do... =/

EDIT: Brought it up on the ruleset discussion too.

Saw that S*** on stream.
That chat went nuts. Anyway, pretty sure this is the best combo w/ G&W, since thunder instantly fills the bucket.
I pretty much have the same feeling with the whole "MK in brawl" thing being applied to Pika and G&W makes sense.


Also that match was faster than melee :grin:

Damn :(
Lol, but seriously though, if Smash City 3 is gonna be held at the end December (preferably the 28th) then I could (More likely than not) come out and compete.
But then again my parents are very.... on the fence about this.
They got the whole "you shouldn't go because you're too young and you don't know anyone there" and "But you could get out and meet new friends and socialize more" things going on. Maybe I can convince them by time Christmas rolls around.... :ohwell:

Ahh, my parents used to say the same thing. It wears off as you get older as your parents begin to give you more freedom because "adulthood" but I remember on my first tournament my parents were very undecided as well and I even recall shaya offering to ring them up and talk to them personally. :grin:

My advice is ask one of them to go with you. It's how I did it and after that it was more or less peachy. After about a year and a bit of going to local tournaments my parents were fine with me going interstate even, it's been a lot of fun. ^_^

That said haha, I understand how they feel. If I didn't know what it was about i'd probably freak out about sending my child to go to some venue I don't know to play with a bunch of people in their late teens and early twenties.

... I can't be helping, can I? :laugh:

Hey Gords, I'd love to get involved in one of these. I can't do the November one (coz I have some exams that week), but depending on the date, hopefully I can make it to the December one!

I've been playing smash for a while but never competitively so I was thinking of attending this one to get into it. What time do you think the Smash 4 tournament will start?

Yes, tournaments are run by the community, that means the community supplies equipment.

And definitely your OWN GAMECUBE CONTROLLERS.
but yeah if you have a setup including a 60hz CRT TV that would be much appreciated, but apart from your controller/3ds that is all you are required to bring, a console is mighty helpful, and a TV is amazingly helpful

Oh ok. Yeah I already knew that we must bring our own Gamecube controller and 3DS.
