Gav didn't you quickly dismiss my Jigglypuff as trying too hard and not fun after losing only 3-4 quick games

Lol that's not true though.

My falcon would lose to boom's pika. My pika would lose to boom's pika. Not much i can do there lol. (falcon is like a mid tier for me)

My falcon lost to CC's kirby at Montreal but i switched to pika and won the tournament.

I'm not sitting here trying to convince everyone to use pika and i'm certainly not saying that if you use top tier you'll become like an S tier player or something. But you can't deny that there is a definitely a difference between how well the low tiers and high tiers perform.

Everybody knows that there are two types of players: play-to-win and play-for-fun.

Both types of players are fine. Neither bother me.

What does bother me is simple: the play-for-fun people that look down on the play-to-win people EVEN THOUGH 99% of the time they're the ones who ***** and moan about every little thing wrong with their character.

Your attitude is (mostly) fine, Rob. Most play-for-fun people are chill. It's the ones that non-stop whine about their mains and then have the ****ing audacity to judge those who switch their mains that really piss me off.

Pika cheap and gay. wat? Clearly these are just ways of rationalizing your horrific deeds so that you can live with yourself without crippling guilt.

No, not really, but I don't think that's important since I have essentially 0 chance to win any big tournament. I'd just rather go and play the game I want to play and not worry about getting Link round 1 on Zebes or something.

A YOLO tournament of 15 people takes about 20 minutes to finish on ONE TV.

The last tournament I was in took 6 hours to eliminate 20 people with 8 setups.

YOLO => More time to play friendlies.

That's ridiculous. The tournament I played in this weekend took about 3.5 hours to eliminate 17 people with 4 setups. We had 4 bracket pools each with their own TV, each with their own assistant TO to help run everything. We were even doing a non-traditional 3 character battle ruleset which didn't seem to slow things down all too much, but certainly could have. After bracket pools we had a reset and then top 8 played a bracket still using 4 TVs.

More importantly, friendlies are awesome and all, but I want to play in a tournament if I'm going to a tournament, but that's me. Smashfests are awesome and all, but I like the competitive side of a tournament more than just a huge smashfest (which would still be cool, lol).

Did the Japanese players (especially the ones that have been to apex) tell you how they felt about 5 stocks vs 4 stocks?

If they were from west coast it would go like this:

*playing friendlies*
Jousuke: damn son, I beat you all day, u suck with that top tier
wario: PLAY ME IN TOURNAMENT


yeah, Karajones, I'm exaggerating. I don't take the Japanese results too seriously, top 8 is random, it's one game, etc. Jousuke almost lost so many times in the past, it was bound to happen someday. inb4 when the videos come out and it's a 3-stock lol.

Baseball would be a better game with identical stadiums, money reasons/historical exigencies are why such (bad) variation hasn't been corrected. Still a baller game, though.

On a separate tangent from that stage legality thread, baseball is the most boring sport that's popular in the US. It's also plagued by some of the most backward fans of any sport. I'd honestly rather watch yet another 0-0 soccer match than have to sit through a baseball game.

And the worst thing about baseball? There's a new game EVERY SINGLE DAY. So every day I have to hear about how so and so is in a real slump since he went 0-3 last night and think about how this guy has never heard of sample size and doesn't even understand that a walk is nearly as important as a hit. Meanwhile incompetent baseball managers make millions of dollars to sit in a dugout (wearing the team's uniform for some reason, which I don't think I've seen in any other sport) and make stupid game decisions that statisticians proved wrong 20 years ago.

Yes, baseball definitely rustles my jimmies.

you're right, at least baseball doesn't take a a whole ****ing day to watch

im aware there are shorter forms of cricket but why would you subject yourself to ANY cricket when you could be watching something cool, like water polo or fencing or AFL
