Silliest things some Smash Bros fans say (State why you find it silly)

[GeNo-BreaKer]

Thought that we should have a topic where we laugh at some of the silly things that some Smash Bros. fans say. I'll start it off:

-Smash Bros. isn't a fighting game even though it has characters fighting
-Wavedashing is a glitch even though it's an exploit
-Tournaments are silly even though they keep a game and it's community alive
-clones are a waste of "slots" even though there are no "slots"
-so and so franchise only deserve so and so characters even though characters should be added for what they bring to the table

Post what you find silly with reasons below!

...T...There was such person?

As sad as it is, about when the game was announced he appeared.

This is worse than Rudy (a PowerPuff Girls vore artist on miiverse. That exists as well.)

Some of these should be infractable/bannable to say them on the boards. The lies have been perpetuated for too long.

 

[Tino]

I remember there was one guy who said that they should remove the whole roster and replace them with Call of Duty soldiers. I laughed my *** off at that one.

 

[Fenriraga]

*Smash 4 has No Tech and is literally slower than Brawl

Yes, there are people who say that.

 

[RobinOnDrugs]

I once came across a post claiming that Pac Man/Namco was over represented in Sm4sh on the Smash Bros. Reddit page.

Now that is ridiculous.

 

[JCDied4U]

People who say that clones don't take up development time even though they have their own victory poses, taunts, voice actors, unique attributes and customs, challenges, trophies, and alternate colors.

Dark Pit 2014, never forget.

 

[Ze Diglett]

"Glover should be in Smash, he's way better than Shulk!" (Keep in mind that someone actually said this.)
"Man, *insert character/strategy I'm using here* is so cheap."
"WarioWare is way better than Final Destination!"
"HOO-HAH is soooooo broken."
"Dark Pit totally deserved to be his own separate character!"
"Little Mac is way too good, they should really nerf him."
"Smash Tour and Special Orders are way better than Adventure Mode ever was!"

???????

People said clones don't take up much development time compared to other fighters. The majority of the hardwork is ALREADY done since they just need to copy paste the characters and apply the necessary changes to them. A lot of what you've just listed takes considerably less work compared to creating a non-clone character.

Also aren't a lot of the customs pretty much copy paste with some minor differences? lol

"Melee was an accident" Sure it was never intended to be how it is today but its not like Melee's depth wasn't programmed in intentionally.

I've never heard anyone badmouth tournaments? And the line between glitch and exploit is very fuzzy, but neither of those terms need to be used negatively. Whatever it is, people use it in competitive smash.
but if i am to try and add to the conversation, the dumbest things i hear all the time on here are:

sm4sh won't be competitive. (if 2 people play it in a tournament, it's technically competitive. The idea that something needs wavedashing to be competitive is ludicrous. )

Diddy is broken (played him a lot online, he's good, but not MK(brawl) good.)

Custom moves make the game less balanced ( giving every character more moves to work with can only balance the game, so far no major faults in custom moves have been discovered.) although i understand not everyone wants to unlock them all. Nintendo should give some auto custom move unlocking pass to tournament organizers. Maybe only valid for a weekend or something. If they would hear out the fans and offer a solution, sm4sh could be something grand.


rolling/dodging is broken. ( this one just isn't true. Learn how to punish these moves, they each come with considerable lag after they are done )

That's all i got.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

"Little Mac is OP" Come on guys

Also I would like to quickly point out that wave dashing isn't an exploit.

 

[FalKoopa]

The topic doesn't seem too different from the Unpopular Opinions thread.

The topic doesn't seem too different from the Unpopular Opinions thread.

Except that the unpopular opinions thread is about the game, while this is about what people say themselves.

 

[Khao]

"Disrespect" talk.

Apparently it's a thing when playing online, even though you can't properly communicate with your partner, thus it's impossible to know their intentions when they're do anything. Stop it with the assumptions and enjoy the fight.

"Melee was an accident" Sure it was never intended to be how it is today but its not like Melee's depth wasn't programmed in intentionally.

Many of the ATs in Melee (wavedashing and the like) weren't intended to be in the game.

 

[Fenriraga]

Many of the ATs in Melee (wavedashing and the like) weren't intended to be in the game.

But they are still among things that Sakurai and his crew did notice during development. Therefore saying they were totally unintentional wasn't true, because if it was, they would have done something about it. They just didn't think it would affect as much as it did.

When was it said that Sakurai and the team were aware of wavedashing and the like?

Ah, interesting. Okay, then.

 

[Selenite]

"Mewtwo and Dr. Mario are newcomers" despite the fact that they are playable in a previous Super Smash Bros installment, something a newcomer can't say they have.

 

[Gidy]

Ridley is too big

It's mainly because they would have to redo the environment, namely environmental gravity and character specific momentum. Just because they knew about it doesn't mean it was intentional. It's basically an accident gone wild.

Fixing it would be like assembling a biiiiiiig computer, installing all drivers, finishing setup, and then going "ok, now let's change the mother board and power supply."

I didn't mean to say it was intentional. I mean that they did not see it as an issue so they didn't do anything about it. Considering how perfectionist Sakurai can be, he would have removed it regardless of time allotted. That or something would have been done in the 1.01/1.02/1.whateveritwas release, which didn't change or 'fix' Wavedashing or anything else but did fix other major bugs.

"Rolls are very hard to punish in this game".

 

[Lag Chan]

Sakurai should stop making Smash games because Ridley isn't playable.
Brawl is a bad game

 

[MarioMeteor]

Silly things huh? Where to start?
-Brawl is a bad game
- This game is unbalanced
-Ridley is going to be playable (Sakurai even gave the exact reason why he won't be playable. People are just grasping now.)
-Wolf is a clone (A part of me dies every time I hear that)
- Jigglypuff should be cut (See above)
- Being casual is bad
- Mac is overpowered
- Items break the game
- Somebody takes a spot from somebody else
- Snake is going to be DLC
- The GC controller is the only way to play Smash
- I heard somebody say Mario is bad. I almost broke down laughing.

Those are just of the top of my head.

 

[Morbi]

The most staggeringly common notion that is put forth not only by casual players, but by some players who understand the fundamentals of the game themselves.

"Spamming is wrong."

 

[Jigglystep]

Every time someone insists that Jiggs is a Kirby clone, I shed a tear.

Oh, and don't even get me started on the Lucario and Mewtwo comparison..

 

[Radirgy]

"this feels sloppy" - a Melee/P:M player I know when I played him on Smash 64 for the first time.

 

[Frostav]

"Balance is bad for the game" - Every Melee player ever

 

[Dreamy Luigi]

"I didn't get Smash 4 because there was no adventure mode."
"The wireless lag on controllers kills my skill."

 

[Deleted member 269706]

"Dark Pit is my favorite character."
"Sakurai doesn't have bias!"

 

[Kevandre]

"Tiers matter"

Except...

Also, people complaining about losing to a cheap strategy/bad player when they are the ones that lost to it.

 

[SoBMudkip]

Projectile spamming is cheap/for noobs.
