Hey, guys. Just want to know how everyone feels about the online Tourney mode? Is it like every other online mode and everyone hates is? Or is this the one that will be different?

Just make it to where person with more damage wins.Lost to a Sudden Death after I had about a 100% lead. Totally legit thing they have going here.
I mean, I can understand that the timer is low to reduce wait times, but make it just a bit longer please? Jeez...
I mean, that’s what I would prefer, but I’ve come to expect baby steps from Nintendo if there is ever any progress at all. LolJust make it to where person with more damage wins.
But it don’t matter much, anyway. Tourney is just not competitive. I have won like a dozen of them.
they really need to introduce team battles.It's ok I guess. Though I would really like it to be 3 stocks with 5 minutes, whether it's 1 v 1, FFA, or a team battle. Didn't win any yet, but the short time limit does encourage camping, which can be frustrating at times. I do like that they have a ruleset rotation; I'm not much of a 1 v 1 kind of guy, I like FFAs and team battles better.
And with the possibility to play with a friend, local or internet, not only random people. But I dont know, they can't add simple options for online or when they do, they take the eternity to improve anything, so I wouldnt expect anything.they really need to introduce team battles.
oh man i would kill for an online tourney you can organize with friendsAnd with the possibility to play with a friend, local or internet, not only random people.

Wait D3 is a villain? I thought he was more of an anti-hero...It doesn't cover every base in that regard (reoccurring "villains" King Dedede and Meta Knight are here, but not the series hero himself, Kirby?), but I think limiting the character pool could be interesting.
Nintendo’s calling him a villain for this event, so... unless he’s meant to be a hero?Wait D3 is a villain? I thought he was more of an anti-hero...
Lol, smash hell. I remember that place. Got thrown there about 20 times. Losers in smash 4 kept reported me for getting their butt handed. Now in smash ultimate, u have battle arena where former smash 4 losers and next gen smash juveniles kick people out of room because they lost an arena battle. Smash community is full of to many soft emotionally weak babies. A disgrace that low IQ Nintendo gives them so much empowerment to impose their childlessness on each other and other users.After not playing Smash for a long time directly followed by playing Smash 3DS for a while, I wanted to play SSBU (because I got stuck in Smash Purgatory for being too good in Smash 3DS). I needed to get used to SSBU again and since I saw the tournament feature (which I had never played before) I decided to get used to SSBU again by entering my first tournament.
Winning that tournament was a good way to get used to SSBU and it even gave me 2 legendary spirits in addition to 2 achievements (one for entering a tournament for the first time and the other for winning a tournament for the first time). So it seems that tournament mode is an easy way to get legendary spirits.

After I won the tournament I went into an arena that was supposedly for training for tournament (I do not remember the exact title though). I assumed that he meant tournament mode and since I had just won that I figured that I would be a good training partner. However shortly after our match started (after I already had a good damage advantage) he self-destructed on purpose and refused to do another match against me. With that mentality he is never going to win tournament mode.Now in smash ultimate, u have battle arena where former smash 4 losers and next gen smash juveniles kick people out of room because they lost an arena battle.
I go there a lot too. Less if I play a secondary, but if I use R.O.B. then I generally get send to Smash Purgatory pretty fast. Nowadays Smash Purgatory seems to be empty, but in the past it was actually decently full with players who were generally much better than the normal FG players. I think of Smash Purgatory is a precursor of Elite Smash. Elite Smash uses GSP to gauge the players their skill and then make matchups where the players have approximately equal skill. FG does the same but with salt instead of GSP, and it uses reports to measure salt. Too bad that FG is full of noobs and thus FG's version of Elite Smash (i.e. Smash Purgatory) is almost completely void of players nowadays.Lol, smash hell. I remember that place.

Tournament mode is a joke. I’ve won over 20 of them. I don’t even use that mode anymore since it’s so boring because it’s too easy to win. There was one time I won the entire 32 player 1v1 without losing a stock in any of my matches.After I won the tournament I went into an arena that was supposedly for training for tournament (I do not remember the exact title though).

I get a challenge in elite smash. The problem is falco is so garbage in this game. If falco was just at least a B tier character, the amount of domination I’d bestow upon people would be near my main level. But sadly, sakurai has decided falco will be garbage. And I get frustrated when my falco gsp drops because it’s not my skill level, it’s the fact that this game has made falco so terrible and under devolped while I’m competing constantly against far superior characters. Though I’ll probably come back and play some ES soon, it’s really difficult to find good battle arenas. Either I’m bared from entering rooms, or charmin ultra soft owners keep kicking me after I kicked their butt. This game is so terrible, but so addictingI wouldn't say online tourneys are a complete joke. Even though they're not real life tournies, it at least gives you somewhat of a feel of what a real-life tourney really is like. It's a good place to start, and also a good training ground (and a good way to brush up on your 1 v 1s may I add). And plus, if you've won over like 100 of them (w/o losing a single stock), chances are you are at the very top end of ES (~5.55M GSP). There's not that many players up there anyways.
J.I.L I get that you view those online tourneys as a joke, since you could probably win 30 tournies in a row w/o losing even once. But keep in mind that not everyone is on your level. Maybe you're looking for a challenge, like maybe fighting against MkLeo or Samsora or other pro Smash players?
I gotcha I thought you meant Nintendo was childish.Tournament mode is a joke. I’ve won over 20 of them. I don’t even use that mode anymore since it’s so boring because it’s too easy to win. There was one time I won the entire 32 player 1v1 without losing a stock in any of my matches.
Sucumbio what are you even saying? And yes they are children. So many rooms I’m not even allowed to enter and many other rooms I’ve been kicked because I beat a garbage owner. That’s on the smash community. It is childish
Night times...usually there aren't 32 people. the ones I used to play with 32 people are day time and evening.I gotcha I thought you meant Nintendo was childish.
That's why I don't play ba. It's too slow to get matches. And qp is riddled with sore losers because gsp. So tournament mode is literally the best experience right now (if 1v1 no items). It's still a strictly unique experience compared to other tournaments but it is a quick and easy way to get a good match.
I don't win often I get 3rd a lot but the 32 player bracket is definitely deep enough to ensure 9 times out of 10 that the final 4 all play well.
Also just a thought but playing any mode you must factor time of day and local region in terms of possible opponents. When I play it's usually later at night and getting past the first round is challenging.
