You may not ever come back to read this, but, what do you think of this?

Pit is more ban-worthy than Meta Knight.

Pit's victory was 3-1, and that one loss (the 3rd video) had been caused by a 39-to-gimp combo that might have been prevented if not for the tripping I heard at 4:15. And oh look: sagemoon is abusing arrows. He's not devoid of skill, granted, but when you can abuse arrows on Meta Knight, you can wonder how Pit doesn't place higher than he already does until you realize there's a limited number of Pit users at all, let alone decent ones, to combat G&Ws. And even then he still places High. It just....ugh.
note, i didn't watch those videos.

edit:
Arrow spam is overpowered?
Pit can hold a given arrow and fire any given arrow in an arc. And each arrow comes out fast and causes flinching, which is more than enough to wreck approaches.

ROB gets ***** by the arrows and telegraphs his projectiles.

Ness's PSI Thunder is slow and the EB boy himself has to stay positioned unable to put up a defense without abusing the seriously laggy Missile.

Dedede is big and gets ***** by the arrows.

Snake's long range stuff is slow.

The Star Fox characters' blasters fire straight.

(There should be more, I can't think of them quite yet. I should have covered my point that Pit's projectile game is OTT.)

You tell me.
Except Pit can still fire an arrow at medium range quickly, just to mess up your approach. These are your options:
*Stay or fall back, which has obvious reprocussions (sp?)
*Try to attack, which causes you to flinch letting Pit react better
*Roll toward Pit, which Pit can use a dash attack or dash grab against when you get out of the roll, if not a simple jab combo followed up by a Forward Smash
*Jump toward Pit, and Pit will probably thwart any attempt at an attack with an air dodge, further messing up your approach.
Most people who theorycraft, for some reason or another, don't take into account airdodging and rolling. I thought it was nice you went ahead and did so.

but...
People don't walk/run and shield anymore??
Master Knight, if you and your friends typically roll around and fsmash the way I see in your little video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rJgcXIIPQU ), I can see why Pit's arrow spam would be completely overpowered and so broken that there's absolutely no way around it.

I can also easily see why using Meta Knight's very excellent options effectively would be beyond your capabilities.

However, I might be wrong.
WATCH THE VID. LOL.

Then tell ShadowGamerDarkly that he and his friends suck. I dare you.
Pit's arrows have more cooldown than Falco's shorthopped lasers. I have no idea who ShadowGamerDarkly even is, but I can't find a single video not involving Wifi on that channel you linked me to.

Do you go to tournaments? If so maybe I can find some reference in placements.

Actually, I decided to go ahead and pick a video to watch. It took some time to find a 1v1, since a bunch of them appear to be FFA, but this one will do.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY0ErdOmuh0

You say you dare me to say ShadowGamerDarkly sucks, but I feel absolutely no pressure in saying so, as it appears to be the truth.
On a side note, Falco/Wolf lasers, TL projectiles, Bananas, Turnips, and Arrows are quite annoying online.

I'd even go as far as to say they're overpowered.
It was WiFi, filmed live. You can see the post match countdown. And team attack was off...wow.
On the vid, he replied to me and confirmed it was wifi. With "little lag".

Lag always seems less noticeable when you're on the offense, because you're in control of your timing. Even if he's "defensively" using arrows, when it comes to who's attacking and having to avoid attacks, he's the one on offense, so of course it'd be hard to notice.

Attacking online is significantly easier than being on the defense and having to react to and time shields/defenses to work against attacks.


Is someone honestly trying to argue that pits arrow spam is more broken than metaknight?



What happened to the smash community? >_>
Yes.

And he supported it with proof - a vid of a wifi match.


2222good.

-----------

really, step back and look at it.

- "Pit's arrows are overpowered"
- Wifi
- projectiles in wifi = ???
- His examples supporting 'overpowered arrows' talk about airdodge (punishable via prediction), rolls (punishability via prediction), but fail to mention quick releases of shields on contact, or powershields (severely gimped with input lag)




it all makes sense now.
He and his friends suck.

Double dare me to do it again?

Stupid Guy's Youtube comment said:
But wait. I forgot about reflectors and absorbers. Oh, no I didn't, for that option, you're using one of less than 10 characters altogether. I'll just study those characters. Yeah, that's the problem with the matchup system in games like SSB: you can study whichever characters threaten your own.
LMAO!

I need 10 characters.....

Steak.

One sunny day in 2009, an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Ave, where he’d been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the US Marine standing guard and said, “I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.”

The Marine looked at the man and said, “Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.”

The old man said, “Okay” and walked away.

The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, “I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.”

The Marine again told the man, “Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.”

The man thanked him and, again just walked away

The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same US Marine, saying “I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.”

The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, “Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Bush. I’ve told you already that Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no longer resides here. Don’t you understand?”

The old man looked at the Marine and said, “Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it.”

The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, “See you tomorrow, Sir.”

That was awesome.
Did you find that, or make it up?

Does everyone in the United Steaks of America hate Bush that much?
Not everybody, but a lot of people do.
I personally don't, but that doesn't make the joke any less funnier.

Hey guys, we should make a room where only the good smashers can talk to each other about stuff...like... i dunno... the important trends in competitive smash? Sound like a good idea?
Also did you watch the election?
So crazy he got in!! It will bring so much change!

..an actor in the White House? Crazy right? Reagan is gonna pwn.


I'm bored.

Not when they master it.

Mastered version = ISJR > Superjump.

of course, that's just speculation on my end.

The guy who showed it to the Ganonboards (and the JP video he showed us with) said/showed it's possible to do with double jump airdodge.

I'm pretty sure it's related to ISJR.

So yeah, just imagine when Ganondorf can bounce that high out of a SH D-air.

What are you trying to say Greenie?

Because if you are saying what I think you're saying. I can't share my steak with you anymore.
