Hey Dekillsage,Mr.Sonic main you don't know what its like to play snake and have to navigate rainbow. I can't get anywhere fast enough!!!!
aaaAAAaaa

What I meant to say was it's to bad that the IC's cheap zero death chain grab isnt banned ALONG with Meta Knight, ofc, it'd probably be more doubtful for the grab to get banned than Meta Knight himself. Sorry if I confused you. Heheh

Mk can kill anyone with 0% shuttle loop.
Yeah it can, and the grab is a great aspect of IC. I frown upon though how people can overuse the IC zero death grab and it isn't even limited. Adding with their camping game, avoiding this trap and approaching them has to be MUCH more difficult.
I assume you'd have to be equally cautious with an IC Player as a MK player, because of their amazing potential.

Mk is actually one of the few who can easily separate IC's, meaning having an advantage on them.
lol @ all these people complaining about ICs
They're not even top 5 imo
The REAL Tier list:
1. Mewtwo (he was so broken during development that they removed him the game, it was the only way to balance him)
2. Jigglypuff (nobody can use her correctly and it makes me sad
)
3. Captain Falcon (same as Puff)
4. MK
5. Diddy Kong
6. ICs

Funkmasterblitz,
I can see why you think that, and I really am with you there
, this must partly be why they hit #2 in the tier list, as other characters have a hard time countering, and separating them.Although, in my opinion, i still think it is possible with other characters to counteract IC, it's just there are much less options, characters other than MK, actually have. MK being flawless, he has fast movement, unpredictability if used correctly, some moves unpunishable, or difficult to punish, like mach tornado.

There are a lot of characters that mk can't kill with a 0% shuttle loop. Like kirby, mk, rob, pit, pikachu, zss, wario, game and watch, sonic, samus, and jigglypuff.

ICs have definitive losing MUs even with the CG. They are kind of like an upgraded DDD. If your character has the tools to fight them (MK, Snake, Diddy, Marth, ZSS, Wario, TL, Wolf, Rob, Peach, Ike, Bowser) you go even or slightly better. If you don't play those characters you get pooped on.

Bowser though

mk is not flawless. he has grab release problems, light weight, and a low airspeed making him reliant on gliding for aerial mobilityFunkmasterblitz,

bowser? i thought he had a nearly unwinnable mu against ics

Shuttle loop is the only aerial mobility you'd ever need

lux keeps saying that bowser goes even with the ics, and im going to keep saying hes full of crap until I get video proof.

Doesn't Pika have a pretty good ICs matchup too? (I think he still loses, but relatively speaking.)

Actually, the burden of proof is on you since you're the one going against the status quo.

Lux is trolling you guys =.=

Bowser probably has some decent tools in the match up. I wouldn't say its very good at all though.
Not really no. Maybe with infinite timer

Bowser going even with the ICs is a very old ICs forum troll AFAIK.

I actually think it started in the Bowser forum in a conversation with the ICs players on the MU, but nevertheless, yeah, it was indeed a troll lol. Just look at the MU chart thread, it shows the actual MU correctly there (spoiler: its -4 for Bowser): http://smashboards.com/threads/official-swf-matchup-chart-v2-0.316173/

Not sure what you mean by troll, even the IC panel for the MU Chart was split on whether the MU against Bowser was even or not when it came to voting.
Only reason it didn't move on was we were limited in number of changes we could suggest
TLDR - Whirling Fortress, Flame Breath

were the differences in opinions in the ics pannel that drastic because -4 and 0 is quite the difference. however, if by any chance lux isn't being serious, disregard this entire post.

I would look for it, but I dont know how to search threads for specific posts anymore in this new forum lol.

Kind of like how 2 NY/NJ players were in Grand Finals at Apex while the Japanese players didnt get to Grand Finals? Now Im not straight up saying NY/NJ > Japan, but saying they arent comparable is laughable.
Dekillsage
Smash Lord
The only time Japan was "better" was at apex 2012, and even then it wasn't by much.(It was mostly nietono)
As of now Ny/Nj alone is as good if not better than Japan.

And the year before it was two Japanese players in Grand Finals, what's your point?
I don't actually care about your answer, just wanted to point out the flaw in your argument.
Vinnie
Smash Master
I'm not sure if you're trolling or not. NY/NJ and Japan are clearly even in skill level. What makes you say that Japan > NY/NJ?
Z'zgashi
Smash Legend
My argument is that NY/NJ and Japan are comparable... lol...
Apex 2012 - Japan Top 2
Apex 2013 - NY/NJ Top 2
How is there any flaw in that, especially when the 2013 results are more current...
