Do you think it's possible to be "Cheap", and if so what is considered as such?

I just got done playing a hardcore camping Kirby. Really hard to play aggressive. Instead of complaing about how "cheap camping Kirbys are spamming their Up Bs and Nairs", I changed my approach, experimented different ways of playing, and after losing 5 times, I started winning.
That's how I learned how to get over PK Fire spam. That's how I learned how to get over camping/spamming Mega Mans. You work at it. You don't see it as cheap. You see it as a legitimate strategy that you need to get over.

Because writing something off as cheap and you've already brought down the chances of ever beating it.
Great post.
I'm talking about real life tournaments, not little online tourneys.
Can you please get the **** out with the online play shaming? This is seriously something the moderation should punish.

Wow. Look at how OP PK Fire and roll spamming. Literally all he did and I can't see how I could possibly ever win that match.

Personally I think calling a playstyle "Cheap" is something you say when you salty or angry after losing a match.

What separates experienced players from non-experienced players is there ability to adapt. SOOO.... If a Samus player chooses to sit on the ledge and spam missiles because its a strategy that works then by all means keep doing it! If you have a good ability to adapt then that strategy won't work and the Samus player will have to change there play style to combat yours.

Footstools are cheap, because most footstools are completely accidental and they can also create infinites.
