Because I just want people to realize that Melee is a horrible game that feels clunky as all hell
It's certainly not as responsive as PM in a lot of respects, but it's by no means a bad game. It's like, the best official Smash game.

Pretty much. Melee isnt perfect, but it's the reason why PM is PM lol.

It's a game we grew up with and latched on to, to some degree and played endlessly until PM came to us and showed us something we more so prefer.

If melee had rar it would be perfect.
Sorta, there's a lot more implications with it though. One Kadano talks about is grabbing the edge becomes more centered around RAR WD (or RAR SH) than other options including character specifics ones (Reverse needle, Marth's Bair, Throwing a turnip the other direction, Spacie stuff) where grabbing it becomes more of a dedication. Also you now have RAR JC grabs, RAR Up-smashes, beyond all the RAR aerials. We don't really notice the theoretically vast implications.

I already RAR WD to get to the ledge in PM. Is there an issue with that? Not having it as a universal option just kind of accentuates the turnaround options that the top tiers already have that give them more flexibility elsewhere, widening the gap of imbalance.

If Melee had customizable controls, it'd be perfect. It was why for years I always grabbed with R+A, because the Z buttons on my old controllers were usually broken and I couldn't map grab to any other button. I ended up grabbing much slower than if I just had a dedicated button, and it took a while to kick the habit.

The inability to turn off tap jump is also a deal breaker for some people.

I know, which is why I said that. All those options >>> some character specific ledge grab tech, imho.

well i hope you like yourself. <3



it's actually hilarious how many people on smashboards never expect me to be black.
I knew you was black lol. I used to follow your streams of PM back in like late 2011 early 2012 when I was banned from smashboards and my old profile pic on here was a picture of me from like 08.

EDIT: My melee tech skill went south after I stopped practicing it when I started playing SCV, TTT2 seriously and when PM 3.0 brought me outta my 2 year old retirement.

On an unrelated note



Does anyone else enjoy gamification of education/studying? One of the motivating aspects of Human Japanese for me is retaking tests so that I can grind for XP lmfao

maybe I just like grinding too much

"That black dude". Yeah, that sounds about right. ¦D

Probably comes from my natural ability to completely avoid and go against any and all stereotypes.

Except when it comes to fried chicken and grape...anything. Totally guilty of that. Not ashamed at all. ¦(

Fun fact: the whole black people love fried chicken comes from the civil rights era where black people would fry large quantities of chicken because they were last long periods of time meaning they could be stored for long periods of time so they would have food for long periods of time.

idk about grape tho.

There's nothing wrong with loving fried chicken and grape drink. If you don't love those, there's something wrong with you.

Since my immediate family is extremely light-skinned compared to the rest of my family, it generally depends on my hair style for people to tell. Since I have an afro now, most are aware, but:
  • If I have no facial hair at all and my head is shaved, most think I'm hispanic
  • If my head is shaved but I have facial hair, most think I'm of arabic origins
Generally doesn't matter to me though since race has always been relatively meaningless to me but I do find it partially amusing.

There's nothing wrong with loving fried chicken and grape drink. If you don't love those, there's something wrong with you.
Never been a fan of anything artificially grape flavored to be honest. Love grapes though.

The traffic is so unbelievably bad where I'm at. There is a parade, a hockey game, a bomb threat, someone jumped off a brige, and its raining. It took me 2 hour to go four blocks on the bus.

Let's just say that I brought up a controversial topic and presented something they weren't aware of about the guilty party that partially incriminates them and they dismissed it as a story I made up based on that one fact despite all of the evidence to the contrary all over the internet.

@ GHNeko GHNeko

Regarding skin tone("race" is not applicable to our species, sorry eugenicists), it's kinda weird; people who've never met me are just about always shocked/disappointed that I'm a burly white guy IRL.

Yes, and it needs to be made non-existent as a concept.
People have fought and died over it, and have therefore fought and died over nothing for long enough.
Great.

So do you also feel that culture born from the social construct that is "race" is inherently toxic and would be better off being separated; For one can celebrate and embrace culture and its tradition without needing to be associated with "its race", correct?

And to extend from this, would you also feel that having the social construct that is "race" as a foundation for ANYTHING is enabling racism, prejudice, and bigotry and will inevitably lead to something toxic, and the negative impacts of the social construct that is "race" far greatly outweighs any and all positives that can be born from such a thing?
