No I still got all the stuff, except for the blank piece of paper which I used

I had a dream last night that I killed a former friend who had wronged me and I suffered in low security prison in a long and drawn out manner for the rest of my life until I killed myself.

. . .

Yeah, I was glad to wake up not in prison.

Why the hell is sudden death not the way to decide a match in Smash 4??? I'm making that rule for #ceo2015.

Dammit I really wanted Aba to win. Those matches were godawful to watch.

LOLOL that crowd was the best I've ever seen, real talk.
Smash community finally comes together to chant something together, Kappa

zero's diddy was kinda tight

 

[Gamegenie222]

aMSa has a fanbase

Girls love Yoshi brah.

TBH, I find Sheik Mirrors to be a bigger snoozefest than Diddy Mirrors (Only by a small margins, though)

KirbyKaze confirmed for Top 8 by eliminating PewPewU

 

[trash?]

I just wanna point out something real quick:

in melee/PM, you get two minutes per-stock, at four stocks in eight minutes. in brawl, you get two minutes and twenty seconds, at 3 stocks in eight minutes.

SSB4 gets three minutes per stock, for two stocks. this is the biggest gap in any smash ruleset, ever.

and timeouts are still common.

how

 

[Paradoxium]

And people still think smash 4 is just so well designed

The defensive options are literally that strong.

And the distracting colors which give me ulcers helps too. [not really tho]

 

[GP&B]

Meanwhile, 64 is blazing through 5 stocks despite having a very campy neutral.

 

[trash?]

that's because the second neutral ends, a stock leaves this world, never to be seen again

if SSB4 has 64 levels of punish games, I'd actually play it

 

[KayB]

I feel like Smash 4 balance is the opposite of games like 64 and Marvel.

"Balance" in 64 and Marvel is neutral because many characters have the same risk/reward system regardless of the means at which the reward (or 0-death combos) is reached. In other words, nearly every character is amazing.

"Balance" in Sm4sh is neutral because many characters are just so mediocre at everything.

 

[MechWarriorNY]

Sm4sh is wiggedy-wiggedy wack.

Is melee top 8 on yet? Smash 4 is boring.

 

[SpiderMad]

Make it enddddd

 

[Empyrean]

Melee top 8 is probably not on for another hour. Meanwhile I'm loving the smash 4 salt in the chat

Also, recent data shows that the 2-stock format encourages time-outs more than 3-stock. Stocks last 10-15 seconds shorter on average in 3-stock format. Pretty weird, huh?

I imagine because players would probably be more inclined to take risks in addition to having more time to adapt to playstyles. A huge part of the problem is the complete lack of risk taking.

 

[PlateProp]

I dont understand how anyone could think that smash 4 is hype after watching that set

Nintendo please get the hell out of our community already

 

[PMS | Tink-er]

I know for a fact that heavy mode smooth lander is the only way to make me want to watch smash 4.

 

[SpiderMad]

All my predictions I decided to not make are coming true

Shroomed eliminates M2K to get a spot in top 8.

Because a zoner vs a zoner will obviously end in a not campy match.

Every other match in the top 8 other than Rosalina vs Pacman has been a lot faster.

 

[PMS | LEVEL 100 MAGIKARP]

remember when they made pm be 3 stock for "time concerns"

can we make smash4 be one stock

 

[Empyrean]

Meanwhile Superboomfan takes 64. Canada da bess when isai is at work

 

[mimgrim]

Because of the posts here showing up in the recent activity box thing I cam here to post a quick radical, unpopular, opinion.

All Smash games should be played at 3 Stocks.

I probably won't reply to any quotes I get to this post btw.

 

[KayB]

I just saw someone in reddit suggest that instead of making Sm4sh matches Top 8 bo5, they should just add a stock instead.

Maybe?

 

[InfinityCollision]

Hurriedly checked stream after work thinking I was mere minutes away from Melee top 8

NOPE LOL

At this rate, factoring in the Nintendo announcement...? See you guys at 11 EST? Here's hoping Dabuz doesn't advance from semis, let alone make it to GF and reset bracket. I know things have been running behind all day but SSB4 certainly isn't moving things along, especially when he's on.

I feel bad for the Melee top 8, long ass day for them.

the campiest of campy characters in melee only create timeouts in the absolute worst-case scenarios

even jigglypuff/ylink, one of the most infamous top-player MUs of all time, has only timed out once, and the person who was forcing the timeout got screwed for his troubles

EVEN BRAWL DOES NOT TIME OUT AS OFTEN. EVEN BRAWL

It isn't a Nintendo announcement. I don't know where people got this idea, but nowhere was it mentioned that the scheduled announcement be anything related to Nintendo.

This was worst case scenario though.

Rosalina vs Pacman is going to be campy as **** regardless of the play-styles. Nothing else in the top 8 has been bad, each game has been around 3 minutes on average.

I already see people are going to point to that set saying this is Smash 4 as a cherry pick them ignoring how games ended at the 3 minute mark on average.

edit: Doesn't help either that almost all of these sets are going to game 4/5 a lot. No sweeps.

Wasn't it just that one match that timed out a lot though? I wasn't following Sm4sh, so I could be wrong.

[trash?]

two of the three games in the same set timed out, and the third game got a kill with four seconds on the clock. that is pretty shameful, yes

I will be surprised if SSB4 holds any legs after this, tbh? I don't think SSB4 players realize how different 08 is to nowadays, being spectator-friendly is everything and their rulesets are not helping one iota
