And why should this affect smash 4 in any way?
Considering the circumstances, I think making sure the tourney runs cleanly is more important than Sponsors or making sure the matches are only on a specific stream.
I am deeply disappointed in all parties involved with that decision.
That should be incredibly obvious, another game affected when another could start.

LOL I can appreciate good lame play but the top 8 was over my limit lol. Also I was rooting for the Pac Man player mostly.

People are blaming smash 4 for running late, when the reason its running late in the first place is that Melee got like 2 extra hours of stream time (Ran all of winners round 2 on stream).

People will blame smash 4 for melee running so late, when its because GIMR refused to have amsa/SFAT play on a side-stream because he's sponsoring him, and the TO's refused to have up to top 5 play on a side stream.

People will blame smash 4 for having too much coaching, but coaching has been banned all APEX, and TOs just haven't enforced it.

#OneUnit, unless it makes Melee players ****ing wait an extra 45 min, even if it was our own game's fault.

the average Melee stream viewer doesn't want to actually watch Melee. The don't want to watch smash. They don't want to watch spacing and neutral and mind-games and dont pay attention to option coverage and positioning. They just want to ****ing watch shine spikes and falco pillars and Ken combos and Falcon Knees. They just want to watch Marvel and don't care to pay attention to the actually difficult and impressive parts of the game.

Arguing with ****ing idiots just furthering the echo chambers of blame on smash 4 in my own state's community makes me never want to TO again.

I dont even like smash 4 that much, its stupid. But I don't rag on it for the reasons these idiots do. The speed at which the neutral game doesn't even matter to them when they don't pay attention to it.

ugh.
I agree, but people are blaming the game when the blame of things going late should all fall onto whoever planned out the matches for streams. It shouldn't affect smash 4 but thats where the blame will fall because us melee players like to circle jerk around and hate on anything thats not melee
Hot damn your spot on. Welcome to the stream monster age man nerds only care about crazy nonsense and long combos. Makes it even more apparent with how people act and don't give people their much needed congrats. And the management with the coaching policy and 3/5 everything is a cluster of a mess sadly.

That stubborness is part of and will perpetuate the Smash Cycle.

I would love to see my Smash Cycle thing averted long term by the smash 4 community, but.... whatever.

It is ok guys. Today I realized I'm the hero Esports needs. I shall now Pursue my dreams and Papa Johns sponsorship.

In all seriousness, I think the highest quality streams I've seen were beast 5 (mainly b/c instant replay achieved) and Super Smash Sundays (b/c amazing players for a weekly and godlike stream layout/efficiency)

illustration required

Edit: I bet Smash 5 is radically different from 4. I also bet the other games die with Melee. Maybe each new release will get some hype and Melee will make a small return each time.

I will proceed with the illustration when
1) I can shorten it enough so that it isn't a crazy large dimension
2) I get the time to do so, I'm in school for those that didn't know, and I decided to start going to a Gym as well to lose weight so I don't have King Dedede's proportions, sooo yeah, much less free time.

According to the ruleset, Losers eights is supposed to be bo3. If Shroomed loses, he was cheated out of his win.

EDIT:
NVM, they changed it last minute apparently.

So this is how it feels to block someone on twitter.
Feels good, no wonder Kamiya does it so much.
Don't want to have to do it again though.

Someone called GGDX5. It appears this person made a twitter account JUST to argue about that situation. Didn't even try to understand, comprehend or read.

Leffen is destroying the balance.
He is going to cause 20XX.
Now Armada is a Fox main.
M2K is hopeless, commits to Smash 4 exclusively.

Nobody else can really challenge Leffen. Everything you love is gone. Documentary episode for Leffen.

Time to cheer for Zero in Smash 4.
South America is at least America.

So, is the fact that even friggen Armada needs to go Fox nowadays a testament to how dumb that char is yet?
