Alright guys, next big tournament, SLComicCon FanX. Brawl and Melee singles, and a ton of stuff being given at the event too. I've been working with Utah3DS to make sure the tournament side of things will go well, and they took the other details and went amazing with them. When we saw that they were charging tax AND a convenience fee for whatever reason, we lowered our fees to make it better for you guys, without cutting any of the extras that are being provided. The preliminary event will have a TON of stuff provided, like food, giveaways, super nice venue, etc.

Direct tournament details:
Payouts to top 6, top 8 if 100+ attend.
Top 4 of each division get a 3 day pass to the Con, and will finish the competition there (we'll make sure you're able to warm up with some matches at the event)
Payment is acceptable online currently, or you can attend Utah3DS's event and pay in person there (if you can't attend event and want to still pay to compete, but absolutely abhor paying online, message me)
Zankoku will be streaming

So who's all attending? Who's all got questions? And stuff? And pie?

2 of us asked this earlier with no response:

I sent somebody an email about this earlier, but do you think it's possible for some people to bring some PM setups for friendlies on the side?

Some of us live on campus and it wouldn't require much effort for us to bring a setup to the venue. What Snap and I are wondering, however, is whether or not we can bring a setup for Project Melee friendlies for players to play on the side before/after/between tourney matches.

 

[Tsuteto]

I will personally provide two set ups for PM friendlies. Sorry that your questions were missed. People may possibly bring other set ups for it, though depending on needs depends on seeing up availability

 

[Shylock]

I am also, unfortunately, in the position of no monies XD I really want to go to more tourneys though so I'm really trying to figure something out

 

[Tsuteto]

I have been known to provide loans, depending on the person. They're interest free too!

 

[Sinz]

But they come with the interest of broken limbs. I wouldn't say too interest free.

 

[Tsuteto]

More like the interest of driving the community forward. Broken bones are just a byproduct possibility

 

[Pumpinz]

I'll be there to redeem myself against PC.... or get bodied again.

 

[Tsuteto]

Just punch him in the face. It's worked for me. May have to pay extra though. You know, in lawsuits and what not. Turns out he's a beast in that too.

I think you just broke your Do Not Discuss clause of the case.

 

[Tsuteto]

Didn't know he hired you as a lawyer. Well... crap.

Regarding the CO tourney.

XDDD

I remember that guy.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Posting to explain to Shylock so he's not confused: "XDDD" was a relatively skilled and active Meta Knight player a few years ago here in Utah, but moved away.

Lol.... I was wondering what he was talking about

Just saw the pm tier list.... Although it's not official I pretty much agree with it.
Glad to know my 2 mains are high tier . (Zelda/Sheik and Mario)

that tier list made a lot of people upset, i feel like a lot of people disagree with it

 

[Tsuteto]

Someone posted a different tier list on the new Mexico fb group. I'll cross post it later

EDIT: The tier list is according to Stock Cancel Gaming. Here it is:

here is a Tier List I made since it seems to be all the rage these days. i feel any character in each section can be rearranged in said section. So I of course do think this is a good start. Atleast compared to CTs. Discussion on this one will probably be more productive. ‪#‎Irish‬Top

[Perfect Chaos]

I find it amusing how the placement of Zelda and Sheik on this list is the opposite of their relative placement in Melee. LOL
I'm not going to take this list very seriously at this stage, since it's still early in development.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

I want to mention that people are upset with that P:M tier list because they don't agree with it. It happens every time a tier list gets released for any game.

I remember when we had Olimar made 3rd best character in Brawl, there was massive amounts of backlash against it, but then people realised that it was right.

I personally disagree with a few placements like Zelda and Peach but I haven't really been playing the game long enough for a very solid opinion (yet!) on that.

I think Olimar has lots of potential in P:M despite everyone putting him basically last in every tier list.

Aaaaaaand thats why Im not the biggest fan of PM. **** spacies.

[Shylock]

Yyyyyyyyyeahhhhhhhhh I've decided to just ignore the tier lists because they're somewhat useless. They don't really tell you who the very best characters are, they just tell you which ones have the most known potential. Maybe it's because I play a character lower on the tier list, but I like to believe that just because I play a lower character doesn't mean I'm necessarily going to lose as long as I'm good enough.

 

[Tuesday]

Says the Roy main.

Also, next tourney can we get Apples vs Pumpkinz on stream? I promise to be screaming trash talk and puns the whole time.

tier lists are great, they're usually an amazing source of information

while the latter of your post may be true, you do have to play significantly better than your opponent to win.

It's like playing Pichu vs Fox, or Ganon vs MK, if you end up against someone who is equal to you in skill or even slightly less skilled, you'll probably get trashed.

 

[ThePoophandler]

Do you know Jackson Banks?

Jackson Banks Is possibly the tomacawk of our local comedy scene. it is a total trip to me that you live with him and that I've been there twice O.o

I can definitely agree it's going to be tougher for a lower tier to beat a higher tier in general, but as far as individual matchups go, doesn't a low tier sometimes have the advantage over a high tier?

Alchemyst and I are looking for spots. Can pay up front.

 

[MVP]

i would advise everyone not to put much thought into "tier lists". in a game like PM where the characters are designed to be balanced, MU exists but tier lists do not. it then becomes a mental block for players whose ccharacters are considered "lower tier". know your MU's but don't take heed to speculation.

 

[socandrewcer]

But a huge part about making a tier list are how many good match ups a character has. And PM definitely has characters who have way more positive match ups then other characters coughfoxfalcocough

Any game with Match Ups has tier lists, they go hand in hand. Tier lists, while I love talking, discussing, theory crafting them, etc, should never be considered law or gospel or anything, theyre just a way of representing the maker's current OPINION on the viability of characters.

You're right. They should be the law and gospel of smash brothers
