[AllyKnight]

lol at brawl bashing, like usual. yay for brawl having 2k pot.

 

[Laijin]

Sooo..
I don't really get why brawl has a 2k pot and melee has a 1k pot?
I'm pretty sure Pound 4 proved that melee is significantly more popular/entertaining/better than brawl when it comes to competitive smash.

Edit: Thats what I'd like to believe anyways. =\

Agreed

Srsly people need to Grow da up and get over things. If U want a bigger pot bonus for Melee get sponsors for it yourself. Besides, Melee isn't gay like Brawl so many more people will play it anyways(Maybe, heck Idk I like 2 play Brawl more only cuz I'm sick of playing Melee but watching Melee IS very sexy), H@ll Melee prob doesn't NEED da pot bonus. Have u ever thought of it that way?

 

[Alex Strife]

people will whine regardless...be happy there is a pot bonus to begin with.

I remember years ago we were lucky to only pay 10 buck venue fees when in nyc they stores would take 50%

 

[MattDotZeb]

Basshunter is going to be here?

Jeezus christ.
Ya know USUALLY normal people tend to not ever use venues that take 50% of the pot.
People rather host stuff in their apartment than get pot *****.

back in the day NYC was LAZZZZZYYYYY plus we had a HUGE lan center.

back then it was $20 singles and $10 doubles and half of each ( weeklies ) and 40% ( regionals ) go to the venue.

Man...Im glad times change lol

 

[crismas]

Still...

I loved the weeklies...I really miss them. And it makes me regret I didn't enter them as much. =(

 

[Plairnkk]

Pound had a huge melee name though already, whereas this tournament is ground zero and a fresh start for both games. If melee players want more sponshorship in the future then show up. If Brawl players want more sponsorship in the future then also show up. Prove yourselves as a community, as of now Brawlers have only proven that they really aren't willing to travel very much

 

[Alex Strife]

I believe brawl players can travel. They have traveled to Apex/ Viridian City and even COT4. They will travel I believe the will.

Melee...well they wanna keep their game alive so they gotta do what is right.

 

[CT Chia]

West Coast Brawl NEVER travels wtf lol

how many ppl have left their region for it, like 5? lol

Holy **** $30 for WEEKLIES?
AND HALF WAS TAKEN FOR VENUE?
WOOOOW.
Must have been some extreme laziness there. =\

 

[Plairnkk]

No, that's BS. Brawl players have shown no motivation to travel as a whole. They travel REGIONALLY but not NATIONALLY really. You can say apex blahblahblah but did you have 25 WC people at Apex? How many good MW people were at Apex? Like 5? There's a difference between regionally travelling and nationally travelling. You may have a few top players from each region, but that's ENTIRELY different than what i'm talking about.

Melee players will travel anywhere not "because they have to keep their game alive", that's a ******** thought. We travel on the simple notion that we love our game and our community and want to see everyone again and play the game we love. I'm not entirely sure the Brawl community functions the same way. I just don't see the same drive.

'

with that I agree with you there is not a huge pull for them. That is why we gotta work with them and show them the joy of coming to tournaments and the great experience that we all can provide for them.

Its a goal we as TOs can and will make. I know they will travel here. we can talk to DEHF/Havok/Tyrant and get them as well as the little known players like Z ( pikachu ) Rich Brown ( oli ) and even Bardul.

how do we get them to come? For me I just suggest talking to them letting them know whats up. Thats all we can do right now.

 

[crismas]

LOL no one from WC traveled to Apex.

And we're pulling to get them to come to Viridian.

 

[GSUB]

You don't have to talk to melee players to "let them know what's up."

That's real difference between the communities.

 

[FlatSoda]

i don't get the differences, the communities can coexist.

i mean i don't care what people think of brawl or melee
i enjoy both

xCARExFREEx

 

[Laijin]

This is truth.
Melee is a much closer community than the brawl community.

 

[Plairnkk]

Either way what the Brawl community NEEDS to do is travel to tournaments and support them. It makes sense melee is a closer community since it's been around 7 years longer....

 

[Nope]

I just don't see the same drive.

Brawl players don't travel as much because they don't have to, there are events multiple times a month now in every region and people have options. Back in the Melee days you were lucky to get a tournament once a month and then if something big rolled around everyone would jump on it. Melee isn't trying to "keep their game alive" but they just have less tournaments then brawl so they are more willing to travel further for them.

Lots of people don't want to spend lots of money to travel when there is a local 40 minutes away from them the same day.

 

[pockyD]

the difference between the love of the game and the love of the community

 

[B_AWAL]

Brawl is going to take time to get people motivated to travel.

aside from big events like Pound and Genesis

and aside from M2K and Ally

there are no players that travel outside of a region
It'll take time tho

Yeah that's true I guess. But you could be having 800 person tournies instead of 80 person tournies.

I probably forget that Brawl actually hits big numbers cuz in MD/VA it never gets over 25 -.-

 

[Lobos]

I probably forget that Brawl actually hits big numbers cuz in MD/VA melee never gets over 25 -.-

fix'd lol and p4 doesnt count

u mad

 

[Plairnkk]

Actually the last few melee tournies we've had have had 50+ lol. we just suck at tournies

 

[AllyKnight]

Sooo..

Blahblahblah Melee is entertaining to watch but when I see Peach press downsmash and it's a stock, I'm like woah amazing kill sooo much skill needed (Sarcasm) and people start yelling for no reason lmao.

I just don't see the same drive.

Melee is not too different than Brawl. Melee was a new thing, Brawl is Melee without all the techs and different mechanics, thus NOT TOO different and wouldn't just get all the hype that melee had when it first came out.

You don't have to talk to melee players to "let them know what's up."

That's real difference between the communities.

More like, " guys there's finally a Big Melee tourney!!! QUICK let's show em brawlers how cool we are and bash their game".

This is truth.
Melee is a much closer community than the brawl community.

Wrong wrong and wrong, you play melee, you don't know anything about Brawl Community, it's as fun as Melee's.

Brawl players don't travel as much because they don't have to, there are events multiple times a month now in every region and people have options. Back in the Melee days you were lucky to get a tournament once a month and then if something big rolled around everyone would jump on it.

True, we have MORE people than Melee, thing is we also have MORE tournies so people tend to have less money to travel.

TL:DR both community has their cons and pros.

 

[GSUB]

Blahblahblah Brawl isn't entertaining to watch and when I see metaknight press b and it's a stock, I'm like woah amazing kill sooo much skill needed (Sarcasm) and people start yelling for no reason lmao.

Fixed. At least dowsmash requires the stick and a instead of just B, lol!

More like, " guys there's finally a Big Melee tourney!!! QUICK let's show em brawlers how cool we are and bash their game".

What are you even saying???

 

[AllyKnight]

What are you even saying???

okay lol I was prob not being clear, but whenever there's a big melee tournament (Brawl is in there too like Genesis, Pound 4) I see the melee people bash Brawl. while Brawl people respect or even play Melee. I think Brawl people are more mature when it comes to this. That's why Brawl people to me are more friendly. Melee people can be annoying as ****.

 

[Mogwai]

he's onto our communal plot to make brawl players feel uncool!

 

[AllyKnight]

Fixed. At least dowsmash requires the stick and a instead of just B, lol!

Ever heard of down C-Stick? and B doesn't work all the time, see, you're just a melee player who's saying random stuff Lmao.

 

[GSUB]

Ever heard of down C-Stick? and B doesn't work all the time, see, you're just a melee player who's saying random stuff Lmao.

b is still easier than c-stick down.

ANd down-smash doesn't work all the time either. At least downsmash is punishable. Fox can punish it easily with down-air, shine, wavedash (more shines??), upsmash.

And YOU clearly are the one just saying random stuff.

 

[Mogwai]

cut it out you two or Plank will be very upset!

Nado is punishable. Nades, Dair from top, reverse grab for some chars and B IS TERRIBLY PUNISHABLE during landing.. What now? I know both game. go back 2 down stick lololol + Nado requires MOVING with the control stick or you just stand still. LMAO Learn ur stuff. I Love arguing with this guy

cut it out you two or Plank will be very upset!

Still waiting for my money, I believe it's been a week, I have all reason to be the one upset.
