This should be interesting. If metaknight trully gets banned, then we will see if it is metaknight's fault that the game is getting stagnated or if it is the Brawl engine itself that is stagnatating.

No offense but some of the mods don't even play smash, same with the Green... the only special color that means anything is purple or there are a few mods that play smash and our also in the SBR

Green is for the normal BRoom, sure some of us are prominent members of the community but there are a fair few that aren't heavy tournament goers in fact I'm probably in the minority.

Same with the mods, not to many mods are also extremely high placers in tournament.

I took a quick count of whom I know is active in smash as well as being in the BRoom and I got

9 for Yes
7 for No

Fairly even.
Did you include Edrees? He's a red-er that is a high placer.

A yep I know all of the higher placing members in the community, and if I went into melee high placers the numbers would grow though I think it would skew it closer to the no side so I just took the higher ups in Brawl. =)

You should make a weighted scale on the votes.



And to view names click on the number when it shows the poll

Nobody's looking, except if your name is purple/red.

I saw it though=D
yeah, but some peeps associate "MK-ban supporters" with "scrub".

I could see this happening...
Someone sees an argumentative post of someone's and goes to look in this thread to see if they support a ban or not. If yes, they might automatically discredit them- that is, if their name isn't in purple/red or whatever.

edit:
how do you see the names? of the voters?
click the number

No! I practiced too much with Meta to have Meta Banned!
lol u needed practice to be good with meta?
i say he shouldnt be banned even tho he is such a broken character, but ppl should try conducting strategies to finally take him down...maybe hit and run? lol

Woah, there is a lot of metahate here...

Seriusly, stop saying metaknight takes no skill to use and that metaplayers are un-skilled, you are just making yourself sound like an ignorant by saying that.

That just makes it easy to tell who you can ignore.

Why would people want MK to be banned? Is it because he's too good or something?

Most of the scrubs who voted joined this month and probably have absolutely no idea how to play the game correctly. And if this offends you, then hey, what's up? You're bad at the game. It doesn't matter which side you voted for if you have zero tournament experience and you can barely beat a level 9 computer...like 99% of smashboards.
Harsh.

I've seen this around a few times, but I still don't quite get it. What does it mean when you say "10something,"? :ohwell:
There's a 10 character requirement for posts. All I had to say was "Harsh", so I just added that to take up the rest of the characters needed.

You seem a bit behind. Anyways, yes, he's too good. In a nutshell, MetaKnight has:
very little landing lag and very little overall lag
good killing moves
good gimping power
good recovery
good priority
no bad character match-ups
so basically, no weakness!

Oh, and Whorenado.

Indeed, but you're also just using the quantitative numbers from the poll, whereas I'm using the qualitative measurement of people's opinions I think actually matter.

Not that my opinion personally really matters on that, or is to pertinent to this topic.

Metaknight should be banned because is so relivialy easy to pick up metaknight at a high competitive level and the fact that he can easily win high competitive tournies makes him a must pick character. Only a few people have even beaten M2k's MK and most of them like Ninja Link only beat M2k because M2k didn't know how to glide toss with MK. It was quite a while ago when that happend and people shouldn't use that as a reason that diddy even has a chance with MK. He only does good against him on FD which all MK needs to do is bann the stage and thats it.
