...No it's not.

You plank or camp anyone, and they won't enjoy the match.

You get planked or camped, and you won't enjoy the match.

if you honest to god truly do enjoy it then id feel sorry for you.

On the other hand, while the act of camping and doing it properly may take some apparent skill, the need to camp implies that one does not have the skill to finish the match.

No. I know this was directed at Tinman but I feel the need to respond. I don't grant to implicit premise that "we only camp if we need to." We don't all play normally then camp if we need to, that's a scrub playstyle. Camping is a legitimate strategy (your argument against this before didn't follow logically).

Iliad said:
Hype, imho, the air time rule is more prevalent because when someone planks the ledge it's obvious in its act and if abused seriously enough will garner unwanted attention to the planker. With air planking however, someone needs only approach here and there, and create the illusion of an offense while in reality avoiding at all times. The player may feel that the air planker is attacking them but they'll quickly find themselves frustrated and confused as to why they can't effectively strike back. Air planking is easier to hide and far more effective than ledge planking, which is why I'm all for the japanese rule.

lolwut?

ok, I thought your problem was just with planking not air planking. I don't think there is any problem with air planking anywhere in brawl, it just doesn't work vs. people who know how to deal with it. It's not winning tournaments. It's not even that good.

@Cruxis, Tinman is right, that is subjective. Camping with falco is really fun, it's all about reading your opponents' approaches.

edit: misread cruxis's post. But getting camped is still fun because you have to be unpredictable with your approaches

also Cruxis, all you do is nade camp and try to shut down approaches with grab, ftilt, and spot dodge, with the occasional mortar slide. it's still fun to play you.

lolwat

M2k vs Gnes

M2k vs Ally

M2k vs Anyone he fears will beat him

And I love zimmermanson from cinnamonson but bro, it's the truth.

*edit*

Tinman, I'm gonna have to say, Nick is pretty free. He lost to Raidos, and you beat Raidos, so you should be able to beat him, right? And yeah I'll 20$ mm your Rob with MK lmao

Iliad.

That rule is terrible.

Brawl is a campy game. Adding ineffective techniques will severely limit the amount of options available, but won't necessarily eliminate the problem.

Some characters rely on abusing their aerial game in order to win. By adding this rule, you're severely hurting those characters, their metagame, and subsequently the players controlling them.

Just my opinion, but I probably won't show up for a tournament hosted under this ruleset.

Tinaye, I just wanna say, if I beat your ROB with MK, I'm going to call you free vs anyone you play, forever, just because you made the comment "Anyone who Iliad plays that isn't Marth is completely free against my mains" lmao.

Now I'll let you have your opinion but camping (or turtling) is considered a popular strat in many fighting games. Your right about brawl but you should consider the amount of turtling in Street Fighter, especially with grapple characters, Like T. Hawk (:

also no sidebet
