as it stands now, the grab where you throw them back and forth with popo and nana is banned. like fthrow recatch, bthrow recatch, fthrow recatch, bthrow recatch, and so on. Pretty much where you don't move across the stage at all and you stay in the same spot. If you do it by forward throwing only or i think theres one with moves inbetween like fair, those are allowed.

this is the closest vid to it i can find - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiW90quHDqg&feature=related
though they sorta move around, idk

if u want to explain further id be glad to answer furhter.

anyone else want to chime in with their opinion on the rule?

Yeah, I'm just not going to go lol. What about their dthrow footstool or IBL?

If you don't even know what you are banning then why are you banning it?

Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite. Takes away from player skill.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.Infinite.

Lain 3 stocked NoJ with 6 percent. 1 grab per stock = death.

Yet lain still lost correct? He got 3rd. IC's are not dominating anywhere in the country or even winning for that matter.

Anyways, I'm not here to argue. I just don't go to tournaments with it banned rather then arguing with everyone. So texas won't be here :). Hope you have fun.

Well top 3 had 2 IC's in it. Ambrose and Lain. First was Ally.
I'm pretty sure that is the first time that's happened...ever. Ambrose is already one of your best players, and lain is one of the best in the midwest. It's not suprising. Also, you might want to ask ally how he beat them :).

im still open to discussion about it, mainly because well, im not all that knowledgeable on the subject. i really havnt played a lot of good ice climbers.

assuming IBL means ice block lock, then yes, i do allow that.

as a mod and top placer, and one of the best IC mains, do you feel any (if at all) of their grab tricksies should be banned?

id like texas to come :) lol

I feel that nothing the IC's can do should be banned. They have not been dominating tournaments anywhere so thier really isn't ANY evidence that suggest the infinite is broken. IC's have one of the worst grab ranges in the game, they have one of the slowest running speeds, they have ONE actual grab set-up, and that only works if you just sit there. That's desynched Ice block to grab while running after the ice block. Blizzard to grab doesn't work at any % if you just hold up. You will jump when you break out of the blizzard. You can actually tap-DI out of it.

On top of this IC's are one of the easiest characters to counterpick. They have several horrible match-ups and stages. Ban FD and camp platforms against them. Sure it's gay, but it works.

Just to let you guys know, NoJ doesn't own a Wii and isn't the best at adapting. I wouldn't use him as an example. :p


Also, Lain is getting reeeeeally good with ICs and D3.

Sweet :). Holy crap a tournament host that listens to the players and is reasonable. Why arn't there more of you in texas >_<.
You're going to use Game and Watch anyways.
Yeah, I am. I don't see your point :). I only use IC's for counterpick match-ups.

Even if I never play IC's, I still won't attend tournaments that ban his infinite :). Just like I won't attend tournaments that have Rainbow Cruise banned. Actions speak louder then words.

I'm going to start saving up now for this. Hopefully I can get Sethlon,Roy_R,Dojo,Santi, and some other Texans to come with me.

If stage rules determined whether or not I'd go to something, I'd always avoid Texas because you have the worst and most unfair stage rules in the country. =/

Luckily, I play a bunch of really gay characters and can most likely be muuuuuch gayer than my opponent if they pick something stupid.

mms anyone $1?
Sure. I'll MM you in an MK ditto, Snake vs MK, or Dedede vs MK(to make LK look bad since he thinks this match isn't winnable).
