Other than "Urgood", nope. Never seen anyone call me names on FG.

Then again, I play Ganon almost without exception, so it's universally accepted that if I win, I didn't somehow cheese my way to victory. I have a 70% winrate on WiiU, so I rarely lose to people immature enough to try something like that.

It's mostly character dependent for me, when I play Ness or Tlink people often change their names to something along the lines of spammer or no skill. When I play Palutena I usually get compliments and GGs.

Yesterday I beat a Rosalina with TLink that "counter picked" me with Palutena after, he threw out 4 reflects before I even pulled out a bomb, so I just ran at him and combo'd him for 60% of his health before he did a single attack. He SD'd both stocks after he got out of the combo and changed his name to "F*CK_YOU" when we got back to the lobby. I got a good laugh out of it.

I was using Bowser...

Playing villager vs jigglypuff. Matchup isn't too great for villager, but I knock him around a bit.

The guy sd's (purposelly) twice then proceeds to call me a spammer.

Needless to say, I was dazed for a moment, then proceeded to laugh.

I played against a Rosalina as Link, and I guess he assumed it'd be an easy win with Rosalina's down B, but I literally just walked up to him slowly and kept using my zair, and he kept trying to down B, for some reason. Then he called me a spammer. Nothing really out of the ordinary, being a Link main, I get called that all the time.

He stayed for another match, and played Mario, and kept using his cape, so I literally just waited for it to end and kept hitting him with arrows, because I wanted to see if he'd do anything different. He purposely SD's, and changed his name to "SLTURTHROTE" (slit your throat i'm assuming) and kept alternating between "Have fun", "Not", and "Playing".

I have to say that was the most violent I've ever seen anyone on For Glory be.

Did anybody here get called names after they lost?

Sheesh I was hoping for some kind of sob stories here but apparently I'm the only loser around here -_-
Just now I played against a Greninja. He spammed neutral B and rolled away when I got close. No stocks were lost and he won the SD. Then he changed his name to "HAHAHAHA", then "CANT WIN" and then "POOR GUY."

In the next match he did the same with Pikachu. I'm not even mad, I'm just amazed there are people who waste their time like this.

Sorry to interrupt, but I battled someone really good and I noticed he read my pattern (I test it with laggy moves always against opponents: Did the correct answer after second attempt)
As this threat is about this: How can I say "Urgood" or "Thanks" exactly? Do I simply have to create a name?

Yep. Create a new ID and load it up on the CSS, if your opponent notices, they'll get the message.

I played Meta Knight against a Marth. I won the first game, he switched to Robin, I lost. He switched to Lucario, I 2 Stocked him. After that he changed his tag to "CHANGE" and switched back to Robin. I won and after that he changed his tag to "GETGOOD".and then left. Since when is players saying you should switch characters?. It is something like that you just ignore and stay the same character. They're not supposed to tell you to switch characters. And that player is clearly the one who should get good, since I won 3 out of 4 games

I wish that there were more players that changes their tag to GG, GGs, and URGOOD and maybe taunt at the start of a match

Well...it just happened to me not too long ago when I played as Kirby against someone playing as Mr. Game and Watch. When he beat me, he proceeded to change his name to 'URTRASH' before he left like a sore winner. :p And that occurred before I faced the next player where I actually won three times as Kirby.

Just fought a Sonic that taunted thinking that he killed me. I made it back to the stage and while he was on the ledge, he accidentally killed himself. Right before I left, he changed his name to "TRYHARD". I wish I stayed and fought him again, but I guess I was just fed up with his spin attacks and grabs.

I run into them all the time. Whenever I do I change my tag to "lol" or "salt." One memorable rage was I beat a guy playing some mid tier character with my Rosalina and after the game he spams "EASY" and CHARACTER back and forth. True to form I change my tag to lol and play him one more time and beat him. Then he spams the same thing along with "NOSKILL" and I'm just laughing at him and am about to leave when his tag changes to "now I try." Not wanting to turn down the challenge I do one more game where he switches to sheik. I 2 stock him and leave satisfied. Don't let what others say online get you down. Laugh at the fact that they have to try to insult you to feel good about losing rather than learning.

So I got two-stocked by a Ganondorf and he change his tag to "LMAO SALT"

Why yes of course random guy! Me losing to you OBVIOUSLY makes me salty. That's some flawless logic.

I once found a guy in FG with the tag "UseDDDM8", and being one to get sucked into things, I used DDD. After WINNING that DDD ditto, he changed his tag to "UrDDDSux". I pulled out the Jiggs and 2 stocked him. I left right after. xD

Trash talking is a sign of fear, they know you are good and they know they will lose playing a legit set against you, so they trash talk to get on your nerves, but you know better than that and obviously it did not work.

For glory really is becoming toxic, I beat this guy with game and watch, and the match was perfect, no lag or anything. he changes his name to this:



He rematches me with rosalina, I beat him again and he said this:



I went for 9s, to show him what luck can really do, he picks diddy kong, I gave him 2 9s and he said this:



I went random select, I got robin, (no idea how to play him/her) I lost, and he said:



And of course he left after winning once

I have yet to play the Wii U version but I'm coming to appreciate that the 3DS version doesn't have this because I would probably get this a lot given how I'll play just about any character for the sake of practice. Not surprisingly, I've had a lot of rage quits following wins with my WFT so I imagine she'd get the most abuse. This happens a lot when I play Wendy and Palutena too I've noticed so I think people are more prone to becoming butt-hurt after losing to girl characters.

I agree that people seem to dislike facing Palutena on the 3ds version. If I beat them one time with her, and they will almost always leave. On the Wii U version, however, most people love facing her, as it seems I get more compliments from my opponents when I play as her than I do playing either Ike or Olimar (the latter of whom everybody seems to hate).

While I don't know anything about either Wendy or Wii Fit Trainer, I don't think the reason people dislike losing to them are that they are girls. A lot of the Bowser Jrs, WFTs, and Palutenas that I see on the 3ds version tend to have very boring and/or annoying playstyles, so you are likely getting grouped into the same category as them regardless of how you play.

At this rate, maybe Nintendo should consider hiding the opponents IDs on FG...I mean we should still be able to make one but the other player can't see because this is getting a little ridiculous.

I still believe that the people who insult their opponents are in the minority, but that minority just happens the be very loud and very visible.

The majority of players are completely silent, but nobody talks about the silent players, and there are a very good number of polite players as well. I'm sure many of the silent players fall into the polite category, but they just never change their tag.

Technically not on For Glory, but someone just wrote "spammer spammer spammer" on one of my old Smash Bros. miiverse posts (which they most likely wrote right after losing to me).

Haha, I have changes my gamertag twice to communicate with a competitor:
1) Called out a SPAMMER
2) Tried to give gameplay advice, TRYCOUNTER. The competitor was good, but failed to use his/her character's counter special strategically.

I've been taunted usind gametag's too, got a SOWEEBOUTIT one time I got pounded.

Once or twice. I actually enjoy it when this happens. I consider myself to be very sportsmanlike, so I have all my GG tags and the like read. I go online and rek some Dr. Mario with my Pika. After, the good doctor changes his tag to USUK. I replied with GG. Then Doc replied with I-OWN-U, and we proceed to fight. I obliterate him again. My tag: GG. His tag: a certain homophobic slur. We play again, he counter picked to D3. I destroyed him this time too. My tag: GG. His tag: after 30 secs of presumably typing, IHATEPIKA . Lol He goes Dr. Mario, and I 0-death him with a grab into fair into nair into thunderspike. He rage quits, as in I'm now playing a CPU. Don't let these idiots get to you, and it's a lot of fun.

>Playing For Glory seriously
Yeah, there's a couple players in For Glory who seem to think they are suddenly good by increasing their win rate. The reality is, it means nothing, so I don't let it bother me when they blame it on Lag, call johns, or think they're good.

I usually play online when I'm drunk anyways. It's not like I'm putting money on the line for me to take it seriously, so I go ahead and let my mind drift to try risky things.

I played an awful laggy match where I won thanks to cheesy stuff and the guy switched his name to LAG. I typed out JOHNS.
I hope he cried

Just now, I fought a Toon Link user who used the tag "FACINCACA" and I was like...really? I didn't get to stick around for another round after beating his ass due to the lagging. My thoughts were "Get a damn life, home boy!"
