I've lost more faith in 10 year olds being good with items than D1's honesty

but no, it was a decent hoax that I think got me

IDK don't worry about Little Mac's unless they are good. I played good ones and they are like little ******* tigers.

Sheik vs Little Mac is pretty fun, just combo him offstage and he's pretty much dead.

A ztd on mac is most certainly possible.
moral? Maybe not. There's something pitiful watching him side-b in the air and fall to his doom. Must be the animation

That explains why the cam footage was such shaky ****.

I wonder how many Smash players were in on it?

Selling out the Smash community, one payday at a time.

I play Falco or Marth/Lucina most of the time and I just punish a mistake and get them offstage and gimp them from there. Robin vs Little Mac is no fun for Robin most of the time.

I'm not sure if I completely believe that imgur leak. I guess it's possible but even if it were true she still has pretty incredible fundamentals.

I guess we will see?

Give it time.

(I also have to wonder what on earth you think a competition is??? Every Smash game thus far is perfectly fine for a determination of developed abilities... or else someone should spell it out)



I guess half of Nario's wins were random??? Doesn't makes sense that he didn't drop a set at Apex... or 9B at SKTAR 3...

Why do the PM boards seem so prone to hyperbole?
You're the only one throwing anything out of proportion here with hyperbole. lol
Might want to read the posts again (probs mine but the one you quoted/others too) about how every smash game is good for competition. Apparently you missed all of that section and the points of everything...

No, Brawl really WAS random half the time.

4 takes out the random input delay that was in Brawl and the random elements of several attacks, even attacks that were randomized in Melee, so I don't see where 1FD's getting the "match decided by random chance" thing from.
Fully on RNG mechanics are WAY out of context. When talking about a Mario Kart competition, the RANDOM factors that matter AT ALL aren't the items/etc, though those do play into outcomes etc. The significance of what the competition is 'for' is what matters. Is it to determine who's the 'best' at the game as a whole in 1v1s? Sure, you could not use items and go on 'balanced' courses or something, but this isn't even about balance. Pick the same character and problem solved, the factors that come into play go deeper than that. The outcome STILL won't match what the aimed-outcome is, so there are other factors in play that basically make the outcome random rather than directly on-point.
If the game doesn't have enough leeway for both short and long term decision making and tactical understanding/manipulation/appropriate working with/around the other competitors mind (their own decisions around all this in return) then there's elements missing when it comes to the competition that cannot present an outcome of 'who's better at the game' through something like a 1v1 (or other) organized activity with the game. (these things are really observable when talking about mechanics if you really want to, since they're so obvious like what I covered earlier about flexible[aka meaningful] options, but it can come from anywhere) All about the mind part of the game, the game can have elements that help, that's why smash IS good for that overall.
Maybe run-on sentences, but there's a reason some games live and some die, and it has little to do with anything regarding the 'mechanics' of the game being too random/not random, or balanced/or not. It has almost everything to do with how the outcome of the activity with the game matches what the target outcome is. Want to see who's the 'best' at the game overall? The game in question is a 1v1/2v2 platformer/direct competing with interacting with another person? Then game has to be suited for that. Some, are more suited than others. That's all.
^Lots of that might answer Thor's confusion too.

How anyone thought the 10 year old girl thing was real is beyond me.
..we wanted to believe
Also, it's not like child prodigies don't exist. You get all sorts of kids who have "see it to believe it" talent in real like at sports, singing, dancing, drawing, etc. A kid who has natural smash ability isn't THAT hard to believe in comparison.

That's why I said HALF the time.No denying that the top Brawl players are definitely skilled. there's just a luck element that shouldn't be there as well.

One day, there will be a child born with a Gamecube controller in his/her hands

Until then, Wizzy and Lunchables will keep us happy

...I don't think you know what "random" actually means.
If there's another word that can better describe how the outcome of something (winner) won't be adequate to determine the desired outcome (who's the best) of the activity used to search for that outcome (competition) due to elements that attribute to things OTHER than the intelligence of those who are searching for it (the competitors) then I'd love to know of it.
The word random is actually 100% fitting there, if you can look at it for what random itself actually is rather than look at the things that you can label as 'random' because they have randomness as an element.
Hope that makes sense of things but it's not a big deal. Long sentence to clear stuff up = can be hard to follow.
It's like watching that 1st link I posted here. Both Allan's and Krishnamurti have very different (more adequate) definitions of the words they use. That's more the way I'm using words than common-folk talk because I've listened to them recently and talk to people who talk like that. So my bad if there's confusion. haha

All these Blanka's holy crap. That's like MD/VA being flooded with Diddy Kong's in PM.

That video reminded me of the stream monsters and peeps who make smash streams for subscribers on twitch and urgh

I miss Youtube with people who made Smash vids with thoughts and tender lovin care. Those old Melee tutorials come to mind. And this guy. The original GameExplain

Me too. I remember reading that his computer died when he was trying to do the HIstory of Brawl movesets 2+ years ago.
Haven't heard anything from him since.

There's a Simpsons/Futurama crossover episode going on right now dang it Canada Cup.

Also I know after Crappy Capture Device stopped doing those vids that someone else picked up some of his work for a little while. I hope someone does it for smash 4 as well cause these new kids don't know about the info bombs that those vids brought during the day.

I really need new info on PM 3.5 to keep me sane. How can I join the PMDT to get that cash money info before everyone else? Can I buy the dev peeps coffee and give them hot towels?
