Was I talking to you? Let me quote the ironic part again to help you with this so-called "reading comprehension." Even I wouldn't pull out the "learn to spell" card.
Yes, I still fail to see what was so wrong with that statement.
I know my post was really long and confusing for you, but maybe you should go back and read my post carefully, then tell me where I accused you of claiming casual players are inferior to competitive players. I'm telling you carefully now Yuna, by creating this topic you're instigating this pointless argument. You seem to claim a sort of "Objective" approach to this topic even though you come of blatantly as an elitist d-bag, the very kind that you're so convinced are a scarcity (Was it that they don't exist, or they're rare? Oh yeah, you changed your mind so we don't really know) on the boards.
Where in my original post (or any subsequent posts) do I come off as elitist? Quotes, please. Arrogance =/= elitism.
I never changed my mind. It's made blatantly clear by the original post that I acknowledge the existence of Elitist Competitives. I just don't think there are as many as some people seem to think there are.
I don't know why any of you guys are taking Yuna seriously.
He wears fox ears to tournaments....... Yeah...
Bunny ears.
And, wow, we're basing credibility in debates on appearances and not ability to argue now? Shallow, much?
I haven't seen many of those. I never claimed I did.
Did I claim you did?
Yes but if it is a vague term that can have multiple interpertations then it is valid. Don't compare apples to oranges.
It doesn't
really have "multiple interpretations" if I in the original post define
exactly how it's supposed to be interpreted, at least for this specific thread.
Wait. Wait. Wait. A tourney player saying that a casual player shouldn't ban things. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. OMG that is the funniest thing I have heard all day.
You totally missed what the heck being a Scrub is all about.
And the majority of elitists are competitive. WTF is your point?
Proof or it didn't happen. In fact, I see far more Casuals coming onto Smashboards telling the Competitives they're playing it wrong. As MookieRah said, if that isn't being elitist then I don't know what is.
I've personally never told someone they're playing the game "wrong". While the ratio of elitist to non-elitist might not be the same, there are far more Casual elitists, at least/especially here on Smashboards and these parts of the boards because of the ratio of Casuals vs. Competitives today.
And then there are the Scrubs who, like MookieRah said, aren't actually Competitive players, who suck at the game and who are hated by both sides.
Never said he did. He stated multiple times that he could beat any casual player even when I never said he couldn't and even agreed with him. Also constantly saying you can beat someone needlesly is elitist I believe.
I do not know how good he is. Maybe he's a Top Player.
Maybe he was talking to someone else and not you specifically? That's being arrogant and possibly speaking the truth (I mean, if he's Ken-level. I don't know, really). It's not being Elitist to say "I can beat these people". He's not saying that those people are worse human beings than him or that they suck for not being as good as him nor is he even saying that they could never reach his level. Just that he could beat them (and most probably,
even I could beat the majority (if not all) of all Casual Players because of their lack of experience. If you aren't Competitive, you've most probably never encountered certain combos, strategies and techniques. I mean, how easy isn't it to gimp someone as Jigglypuff with the Rest if they don't know how to avoid it? And there is nothing wrong with since they're not supposed to have encountered Competitive strategies, techniques and combos).
The thing is both of you guys are quick to be *****. Really quick. Then you ask for examples of something I never claimed you had while doing the thing I claimed you did do. Which is be *****.
I'm not a ****. I'm a b*tch... to those who deserve it. Sometimes, it's swift, sometimes, it's not. It all depends on how stupid I perceive them to be from the posts I reply to.
You claimed I was an Elitist Casual in a thread whose OP specifies that an "Elitist Casual" for the sake of the argument is. Never once did you specify that you just meant that I'm a "****". Excuse me for not being psychic.
I have read about K-12 and these people. Yeah, these people ARE the elitist.
Even I have a MP i received from him with a eltist meaning in all that.
Who are you and why should I not treat you like a troll?
Everybody hates them [the Spanish].
Who are you and why should I not treat you as a troll? Given, I haven't really spent
that much time with the Spanish having only met them at one tournament so far, but they seemed like very nice people. K-12 wasn't there, though.
Yeah, i'm not competitive, because i defend casuals. However, i use adv. techniques, edgehog, and all these things (not play with items, only some scenarios for practicing).
Umm... what?
Really, please, if you want 5 eltist competitive people, go to spain. There is a dozen actually.
Name them or GTFO.
I heard that they went to an USA tourney, and they lost in the first round.
I heard the American tournament was their very first international tournament. So it's not really surprising. There's also no such thing as "losing in the first round" as there are pools. They just didn't make it out of pools.
Yes, some competitive elitist are competitive scrubs (in a way). So I agree with mookiehrah and others. But Yuna made a statement in the second page (or eight, i don't remember).
Being competitive is to play to win.
And?
I agree with this post. 2 things: this says that being competitive is another way of have fun with the game. So yes: being competitive is to go for the win (but that doesn't mean that you have to do cheap tactics for being competitive).
Did you just admit to being a scrub?
But... Is Gympyfish competitive or he isn't? Yuna would think he isn't, because he main a low tier character.
Quote a single post where I've said anything that could even be miscontrued as "Low tier mainers aren't Competitive". GimpyFish is still playing to win. He's just choosing to main as someone with an uphill battle in most matchups (no longer true in Brawl, I guess).
Is it just me or am i the only one who, when playing with a casual player tries to persuade them to learn some new techniques and play competativly just for the sakes of having people to fight agasint.
Casual is no problem idk why this rumor/myth has been poping up alot latley
I would never aggresively try to get Casual players to "go Competitive" but I'm always happy to answer questions people might have about Competitive Smash, especially if they main as Peach.
Oh, by the way, for those who didn't understand the point of the Challenge in the original post:
The challenge is to disprove the common belief that there are a lot of Elitist Competitives in Smash, especially here on Smashboards.
Because if there are so many of them that it's valid to constantly complain about them and their wicked ways, then there should be at least one person around who's encountered 5 of them.
After all, this is a forum with hundreds of users on it. The Competitive Smash scene is international and consists of thousands of players. If so many Elitist Competitives exist, then at least
someone should've encountered 5 separate ones.
Because if they haven't then why so much whining about them instead of whining about the specific Elitist Competitives like 5010 and Dylan Tnga?
