I started the Delta stage trend because I personally love playing on the tri-plats the most, not to appease the competitive scene, which would have never adopt modded stages in the first place.
Oh sorry lol I meant pass fighters
That’s fine.
I mean, I don't think anybody "knows" that.
Funny you say I should try but that is what I'm saying the community should do. There will be 7 months from release to the first real major (Apex will be too close anyway). That's 7 months of tournaments to show if something is broken or not. To show if there is a real problem with it. \
For Smash Wii U? Probably not.
I'll have to forever dispute the Ballot = Ridley claim
And all the veterans.
That's still not the same as other supers which can usually be punished, from my understanding. Besides, that "risk" is made moot by the fact that some are completely unavoidable, like Peach's and Bayonetta's.
Peach/Daisy's are completely unavoidable when used probably, so I don't see what your point about it "backfiring" here is.
And if you mess up trying to knock the meter out of your opponent, you die at 20-50%. Playing too aggressively against someone with a full meter is dumb.
Overcentralizing means that one element of the game become's so prominent that the game's other features no long carry as much importance. It creates a system where the game has less variety in its viable options then it would otherwise. Why focus on risky things like approaching, juggling, edgedguarding when you can be filling up that sweet sweet meter that kills super early instead? I'll admit that this one point in particular could be tested more, but it's not the only option and I'm pretty sure Bayonetta's FS is so incredibly stupid that testing that move would just be a waste of time anyway.
Where's muh Pokemon Stadium 1?
Playing around hazards takes skill.
It's still weird to thing about.
I'll argue that Ridley really didn't need the ballot with how much he got supported already.
The fact we still don't know results to this day and with the whole Bayonetta thing just makes me very doubtful of the merit of the ballot, imo.
I'll even argue that K. Rool was almost close to a Ridley situation where he really didn't need the ballot.
Or can it?
But that doesn't explain every other choice that was listed. Also, if we're going by a trusted source a moderator here has, the Ballot drew attention to K. Rool that Nintendo had long abandoned. So if we trust that it's indeed why he's in.
Then create them. I take umbrage with people complaining how others choose to mod the game. You want something in Smash, then put it there yourself. I'm not even mad that Chronicles Simon is missing, because he won't be missing for long.
I say "I"
Competitive Smash isn't just about raw skill. It's about getting into your opponent's head, anticipating their movements and options, and outplaying them by staying one step ahead of them whenever possible. Competitive Smashers want to have fights with human opponents, not with stages.
I think that maybe FSmashes like roy or Kirby arent TOO terrible considering it doesn't have too much active frames, therefore roll is like an actual option, but stuff like zelda Fsmash, Space animals FS, the Belmonts FS, Samus FS and even Link and Marth FS, (and by all the gods Peach/Daisy FS of brokendness) shouldnt be close to anything competitive.
Like who, Inkling and Isabelle? It felt pretty obvious given the two franchises massive growth that they'd get reps.
It makes a lot of modders work with the competitive scene in mind.
I don’t have the skill.
They dont want to show the number cuz Goku got its spot stolen.
Me.
Okay, I'll concede that Ridley probably had nothing to do with the ballot.
This argument makes no sense. The skill in a fighting game tournament comes from who is better at handling the mechanic of fighting in said game. We are talking about tournament level play. Once again, you cannot have a stage win a tournament. The point of high level competitive play is to see who is better at fighting the other player, introducing obstacles only obstructs that goal.
Nope K. Rool was because of the ballot
Where is the relation? If you knew competitive players you'd know most of them wouldn't care beyond Steve being a new character that they'd have to learn the matchup of.
Some people just want to enjoy the core mechanics of the game and not have pokeballs or Smash balls or other stuff interrupt that. I don't understand why that gets people so worked up.
If we use them in competitive play, then yes, but that would be problematic. When a single move is keeping someone high tier, it's generally pretty annoying.
The thing is is that you can't really avoid FS like Daisy's. They affect the whole screen and aren't really balanced around competitive play.
