For Glory in a nutshell basically...

This Shulk makes me want to cry.

 

[Tino]

Where's Dr. Phil when you need him to give them a lesson they'll never forget.

 

[Purin a.k.a. José]

Today, I've faced another salty Yoshi. He was way better than the other one, actually, but the salt was bigger. I 2-stocked him twice with the same trick: Kirbycide. As I killed him with it, he came and said "NOSKILL ->", that arrow indicating me to get out! What, so I would have skill if I let you meteor-smash me? After the second match he suddenly left before I could even take out my "SALTY?" tag.

 

[Zaabrey]

Oh, yes. I've had it happened in For Glory FFA. I have yet experience personal insults in singles.

Tags like...

"N*GGER" (I'm black just an FYI and I was name-called before the match even started.)

"OVUL8" (Oh, my FAVORITE insult >_>. I won playing as Peach. Did best 2 out of 3 with with the person insulting me and beat the rest of my two opponents. After my victory, I turned off the console.)

"U SUCK" (When I lost to a spammer. Someone actually stood up for me. We're friends to this day.)

"IT'S OVER" (This guy I think must have fought me in the past.)

"F***INGSUK" (Same guy above. I won the match.)

"AVOIDING ME" (This chick from For Fun FFA ganged me with the help of a friend. I dittoed her ZSS after she chased and tailed me throughout the match from the previous battles.)

 

[Nah]

Occasionally people will change their tag to some sort of attempted insult. Usually it's about camping or spamming (because I play Robin).

I don't really even camp that much, and like what, am I supposed to be sorry that Thunder and Arcfire are integral to my character's gameplan? Be sorry that her jab is really good but her tilts are meh and smashes laggy so I'm gonna jab a lot? lol **** no
What do these people want me to do, pretend I'm Fox or something? No, I'm gonna use my projectiles and jab a lot and not play too aggressively and if you don't like that then tough ****.

 

[Still~Wolf]

Yeah, I've gotten tons of insult tags and such. Mostly when I play Kirby or Pika.
I've noticed I mostly receive these tags from particularly try-hard players.

 

[Aphistemi]

Oh, yes. I've had it happened in For Glory FFA. I have yet experience personal insults in singles.

I had a few people call out the racial slurs, I'm black too, sometimes I wonder if Miis actually matter in people when they try to insult, Still pathetic nonetheless

 

[aethermaster]

For Glory in a nutshell basically...

This guy is a disappointment to the game, to all Shulk mains/secondaries out there, and to Xenoblade fans

 

[Deleted member]

I fought this Donkey Kong with Luigi and I won.
Then I fought him as Pikachu and I won. He then says "NICE SPAM". Really? I wasn't even spamming with Pikachu! I found openings and I exploited them.

The next match I switched to Little Mac. What does he do? He switches to Fox and goes on one side of the stage to spam his Blaster.
I honestly spammed some smash attacks because at that point, I really didn't care. I was trying my damn best to disrespect him by breaking his shield (because of the new shield stun benefiting Little Mac)... and it worked. I ended the match by landing a fully charged Straight Lunge on him.

He left immediately afterwards.

 

[KirbCider]

For Glory has been really showing it's classy side lately it seems. Some amusing things that happened:

I play a lot of 2V2s with a friend of mine cause he comes over rather often. One day we got on For Glory and went against these two players who had to obviously be in Middle School or something. They played well, spammed often but played well. In the end they lost every single match with us, some worse than others. Every time they lost they would put up ridiculous tags such as but not limited to:

"USukDik" "USukmyDik" "Ueat@sshol" "ULik@ss" "Likmy@sshol" ... There were others but those were the most memorable ones.

We also went against these two other players on the same day hours later I believe who, whether they won or lost would always change their tags to something either gross, offensive, or.... Insults maybe? I have no clue, but these guys had a full list of these things.

BONUS STORY TIME: This actually happened yesterday in 2V2 For Glory. These two players were as salty as they come. The very first match they lost they put up "Spam?" when we didn't do it at all. Well, my friend decided to show them what real spam was by switching to Charizard and spamming Fire Blitz countless times. They switched their tags to "Spam?" "YES!" after that. He went back to playing normally after that by switching to Shulk, and we won again. They decided to repeatedly cycle through those tags now.

Eventually, I think our 4th match they ended up winning by +1 out of luck with only 3 seconds left. They then changed their tag to "USUCK" and cycled through the tags from before again. Well, we decided to start dishing out the disrespect in full now.

I switched to King Dedede and he switched to Ganondorf. We not only taunted constantly, but won by +4 that time. To make things even funnier is they tried taunting as well even though they were losing horribly. They tried so incredibly hard. Two matches of this they try to mirror us, lost even more horribly and proceeded to cycle through their tags and added an additional "GG" tag up at the end. I highly doubt they meant "Good Game" but rather "Git Gud". These had to of been the saltiest try hards I ever witnessed. Stay classy For Glory.

Stay classy.....

 

[Crudele]

Wooow G&W chaingrab confirmed?

 

[Bellerophon]

There was one guy that beat me with that changed his tag to "PKBITCH" after he beat me because because of a f-air spike.

I beat him the next game taking both of his stocks with the deadly back-throw to "okey" combo to maximize his salt.

After that he replied with a "NOSKILL" and a "LOL" tag, and I replied with "" and a lol of my own.

Beating people that change their tags to insults is one of the most satisfying things to do in FG.

 

[Giga Kaiju]

Rarely, I have been called some things like 'USUCK' or something but very little. If anything, at all, is like they don't even bother to do that and leave JUST after one defeat.

Guess the salt was very much difficult to contain that they had to leave...

 

[phire_]

I faced a guy who had a pretty good R.O.B. and I lost to him as a result.

After beating me, he called me autistic, a piece of s#!t, told me I was trash, and basically laughed in my face.

Seriously, if I had the ability to teleport, I would teleport to where that guy was and beat him up until he's in critical condition.

 

[Seb9k+]

^ So I met this kid earlier this morning... hahaha

I have NEVER met a R.O.B. player on Wi-Fi that was a good sport. They all had to be annoying for some reason.


Yes I have been called names before.
One recently was when I was using Zelda. The dude wrote: CAMPER•SUCK.

Was that the same dude who wrote: BAN•ZELDA?

This is the guy's Miiverse page, if you were wondering: https://miiverse.nintendo.net/users/Ai_Kora

 

[ArcanaXIII]

My most notable is when I actually had a guy go to my Miiverse profile way back in like November just to say that my Marth sucks, I have no skill, I try too hard, and complaining that I didn't give him the runback. He actually posted this on a very old post of mine that regards Windwaker.

I only ever deny the runback if the opponent was very annoying(rolled all over the place), the match was laggy, or if there's input delay.

Other than that, I do run into people who change their tags into things like "U SUCK", "UR BAD", and "LOSER", despite winning or having more overall wins in the set.

 

[Stromp]

Frequently. Probably because I main Rosalina

 

[Velmonte]

I encountered this interesting Megaman player on For Glory just now.

He wasn't a salty player in the slightest, but I thought I'd share the story here. Anyways, he would change his tag to different "-MAN" names. He played differently based on that tag he used. He started off with his tag as "BOMB MAN" where he literally just spammed his side-b over and over. After I won, he then changed his name to "JUMP MAN" and just did nothing but jumping with forward airs and back airs. So on and so forth. I think he used 6 different "styles". After I beat his last one "SHOOT MAN", he made his tag "THE END" and then left.

So bizzare, but I admired his creativity nonetheless.

 

[Giga Kaiju]

LEL.

That sounds kind of cool actually. Props for the guy/gal creativity there.

 

[Deleted member]

I might as well just go ahead and improvise by creating some tags just in case I bump into one of those again, just for the humor of it.

Oooold post but I like this idea. A lot. I don't have any response tags for any salty people or pricks on FG yet, so what would be some creative ones?

I've been laughing at this straight for the past ten minutes and my cheeks are red and I can barely speak. Seriously that is just friggin' platinum lols right there.

Well here's what got...and it goes like this. *ahem*

"LOVEUTOO" (when responding to something like "F**K_YOU" or "FACK_YOU")
"Y_U_MAD?"
"LOSER"
"HMMM_SALT" (a pun of Homer Simpson's "Hmmm, donuts" quote)
"I_KNOW" (when responding to the typical "YOUSUCK" tags if you end up getting beaten by them just to humor myself because...well...I only play this to have fun)
"URNOFUN:/" (I use this tag prior to leaving if my salty opponent decides to go another round after beating their asses a few times in a row)

That's all I got. I don't have that many of those because, apparently, sore losers are pretty rare from my experience. The rest I have are all positive tags like "GGs^_^" and all that.

I think the likelihood of encountering poor sports varies depending on your character. I'm used to getting lots of hate as Sonic lmao.

 

[Deleted member]

To be fair Sonic is pretty much a giant salt magnet. Many raised pitchforks during the Brawl days at taunts like "C'mon, step it up!" or "You're too slow!". That and I guess since Sonic moves very fast and can easily punish a foolhardy player's mistakes, low-level players get pissed at not knowing how to fight him properly. I mained Sonic for about four years in Brawl before I dropped him for other characters, and my friends back then couldn't stand my Sonic lol

 

[Tino]

I think the likelihood of encountering poor sports varies depending on your character. I'm used to getting lots of hate as Sonic lmao.

Basically I play whoever I wanna play as. I see no reason why people would start throwing insults just cuz I play as a certain character or whatever.

 

[Giga Kaiju]

It depends on the character really. When you defeat someone consider not as often playable or hated like Sonic, it can get pretty salty at times.

 

[Velmonte]

I love how I get called "SPAMMER" because most of Sonic's moves are rolling into a ball.

 

[Daxter]

I'm SICK of being mocked and bullied online. I know I'm the worst player in the game, but people don't have to rub my own salt into the wounds. What I wouldn't give for half the talent most of you guys have ;(

 

[Giga Kaiju]

Don't worry about that dude. We ALL had those kind of moments where you feel you could have done something different at the outcome of a match. It just takes trial and error, and eventually you CAN make it.

 

[Tino]

Giga Kaiju has a point right there. Besides, it's not gonna make things any better if you keep making such a big deal about it.

 

[KirbCider]

I'm SICK of being mocked and bullied online. I know I'm the worst player in the game, but people don't have to rub my own salt into the wounds. What I wouldn't give for half the talent most of you guys have ;(

People insult others and more online mainly because they know they can get away with it. They are able to hide behind a screen without the fear of getting caught and decide to do anything and everything they can to make the person on the other side miserable.

It sucks, but it's going to happen even if you become a good player.

It may not happen as often, but some people just don't care. You can two stock them and they will still throw insults at you left and right. I guess what I'm trying to say is you can never avoid this unless you just stopped getting online in general. It's going to happen.

As for being the "Worst Player" you shouldn't beat yourself up honestly. Everyone has got to start somewhere and you will get better over time. It won't happen overnight or even instantly, but it will happen. I've been playing since Smash 64 and I'm still no where near a Tournament level Player. I've improved plenty over the years though, as did anyone and everyone else who put in the effort to do so. Never doubt yourself, never get upset because you feel like you aren't good enough, and most importantly just have fun.

You'll get there. We all will. Practice is literally all it takes. Well... That and patience. Lots and lots of patience.

So I'm not the only one who's had this happen.
Just a couple weeks ago I went against a guy who was a really poor sport. Any time he killed me he felt the need to spam crouch and taunt. So at first I thought "oh, he's just being silly" but after he 2-stocked me (it was a legit 2 stock, his Lucas was pretty good), he replied "LOL" and proceeded to pick whatever character I played last match to beat me with them. One match I picked Jiggs and beat him with a rest combo, and he switched to Jiggs and I played Rosa.
The guy was desperate for rests, literally just resting me any time he approached so I'd just hold shield and punish. He never changed his gameplan. Easy 2-stock. After, he changed his tag to "USUCK" then, "REMATCH", being salty, I replied with "you suck at rest, KBYE" and left.
Next day, I found he had posted on my miiverse, basically saying "You should apologize for insulting my Jigglypuff when I beat you like 10 times and you beat me twice."
On a three month old miiverse post.
I laughed it off and deleted the post.
Last I checked he's still been bothering me so I just don't check my Miiverse because I don't care.

Pretty much this. Everyone started from below, and steadily gain experience with the game. And that learning process IS what makes the game so deep and fun at times.

Why not just report him to get him banned? If he's been leaving comments on your Miiverse over and over, he could surely get banned for harassment. I could be wrong though. Not 100% sure how the Miiverse enforces its standards.

Like I said, II don't really care. If it gets out of hand I'll block him, but for now I find it kind of funny.

 

[Seb9k+]

I have old tags which I used when people were salty. I'd put "U MAD?" or "TRY SUGAR". I had a laughing fit once when someone said "U SUCK!", I said "U MAD?" and he actually said "NO". XD

Recently, I only put "XD" though, like in my vid a couple posts up. It feels like they want a reaction from you, so if you do nothing they feel that they win, but if you just do a simple thing like "XD" they get infuriated because you don't seem bothered.

Me and @Izayoi run into this all the time when we play online too. I'm glad we're not the only ones who've run into angst teens who think sexual jokes are the funniest thing ever.

 

[BuckTooth]

"LAMESTRAT", "PATHETIC," "FAGGTSPAMR," "SPAMMRBTCH," "ANNOYING."

I've been called all those things and more. I must admit that I do have sort of a spammy playstyle with Ludwig, so I'm not too surprised that I've gotten more flak than you. Still, I don't mind the name calling at all, in fact, I actually look forward to it, because it clearly shows that I'm getting under their skin lol. This might sound a little strange, but Ludwig as a character is arrogant and bratty (for lack of a better word), and thus, it should naturally follow that he be annoying. When I get those comments, my experience with Ludwig feels more real.
