I know most of you think that smash will continue progressing as a game and eventually arrive at a point where everyone plays to near perfection. I am here today to tell you that you are dead wrong.
I was recently doing some reading on machine learning and had a thought, since a lot of research is done to make machines complex enough to reproduce aspects of the human mind, surely the human mind is just a very complex machine. I asked a phd student friend of mine in the field and he confirmed that machine learning philosophy agrees with that statement, therefore one could postulate that much like smash cpus, human players can be manipulated into SDing. Thus was born the SD Psyop.
Knowing this, and acknowledging that melee will only be played by human players, it can be assumed that it is entirely possible to start a match, perform an extremely specific set of inputs both in the game and in real life, and your opponent will just SD every stock and hand you the win.
Now I’m not sure how one would trigger this, but it’s entirely possible the pros have been practicing this for years, brute forcing certain maneuvers, getting hit by combos on purpose KNOWING their opponent would SD at the end of them and quite possibly even seeding the self destruct into the minds of players via social media such as Twitter or using their twitch streams. It is impossible to know how deep this mind game goes, and who is in on it. Can humans practice this? How much do top players know? What information are they hiding from us?
This is the new 20XX, the SD Psyop will change how we play video games and is the entropic death of smash as we know it. Next time you or a player you are watching SDs, take a second and think. Could this be a part of the SD Psyop? Thank you for your time and stay vigilant.
