Indeed. Tripping won't really change the outcome of matches very often so it doesn't bother me. If luck and my skill combined allow me to fall into the hands of my enemy so be it.Lol tripping is stupid but not such a big deal to get mad about it It doesn't really bother me at all...
Proof Sakurai just did it to annoy us.Sakurai said:You’re gonna slip! Trust me, you’re GONNA slip!
that's got to be the record for the fastest trip LOL
Good point, but do you believe tripping will be so prevalent as to -seriously- hinder a competitive player's chances to win. You yourself said it -does- happen less frequently and rarely leads to stock conversion. So what of high level play will make it more frequent and less rare, nothing much really. Regardless, I do see how it does indeed apply to competitive playing, and I -can- see how it can lead to a player losing one stock because of the trip. It's all a matter of just how much and how well it can impair tournament level play. We obviously can't restart the matches every time someone trips. Basically what I'm trying to say is, in the -chance- it isn't removed.....play to win, so what if they trip.These exact same arguments apply to the question: Why don't we turn bobombs on very high? Their appearance is random. They can affect both players. If you get hit by one, you didn't react fast enough. Etc. Yet only the scrubbiest scrubs would want bobombs turned on very high. Tripping is less serious because it happens less frequently and may rarely lead to stock conversion, but at high level play, it can and will affect the outcome of important matches.
Tripping is a bad mechanic. It's obvious that, for now, it's part of the game. This is not contested, so why do you keep pointing it out? Everyone knows it's part of the game. With the very real possibility that Brawl can and will be patched, there is every reason to voice our complaints. And even if there weren't, criticism isn't justified by its utility. It is its own justification.
It's not solely a competitive forum, is it...? If I do believe so, there -are- forum sections on these boards that are solely for competitive discussion? I might be wrong.love all the randies telling everyone how much they couldn't care less about tripping. this is a competitive smash forum, and something like this could have significant effects on the outcome of a match if it happens at the wrong time.
go back to gamefaqs, no one likes you here

Any amount of random favor hinders competitive play to *some* extent. Things like Peach's turnips could sometimes turn the course of a match. I recall at one tournament playing a match where my opponent pulled out a bobomb, then a stitch-face, then a bobomb. This is very very rare but it does happen. The game would be better if turnips were pulled pseudo-randomly (for instance, every 20 turnips you get a stitch-face, but in random order within that set of 20 turnips). But the problem is rare enough, and it's only one character, so that didn't break the game. Tripping probably won't break the game either, but it's more serious than Peach's turnips since it applies to all characters and seems to occur at least once every match or two.Good point, but do you believe tripping will be so prevalent as to -seriously- hinder a competitive player's chances to win.

Edit: Also, what the guy above me said.
http://smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=4075678&postcount=52You guys must hate G&W and Peach.
I agree completely.You know, people say get over it, but after a month of playing Brawl, and it's happened to everyone, they're all just going to complain about it.
Shield button. Did you not even watch the videos?The same thing applies every time you get hit by that super hammer. Chance and randomness, only by logic, G&W is cheaper then tripping with a higher percentage rate. So how do you deal with getting hit by that huge *** hammer? Can't dodge it all the time I know that.
Yep, so you are saying that you can block every single attack an opponent throws at you? You are some kind of god with ultimate defense? Why aren't you the best fox player? I mean in that video you couldn't even block all of Ike's moves, he was smacking you around and he's much slower then G&W.Shield button. Did you not even watch the videos?
So funny.Yep, so you are saying that you can block every single attack an opponent throws at you?
The G&W Hammer attack still has to land and the attack can be blocked. There was nothing I could do the prevent getting smacked by that fSmash, I even cancelled my trip 1 frame after I fell, and even if I did it perfectly, 0 frames, I still would have gotten hit. IT'S INESCAPABLE.Yep, so you are saying that you can block every single attack an opponent throws at you? You are some kind of god with ultimate defense? Why aren't you the best fox player?

http://smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=4075468&postcount=33why are you complaining, you would have died very soon anyway, and you still won by a longshot???
Tripping adds nothing contructive to brawl. It only increased the luck factor, competitive games should have as little luck as possible.
You sure don't have to accept it, so maybe it should be banned right? Also, what the **** are you ****ing talking about? Bus fare? What? Get a ****ing job.The community decided that these things were ****ing stupid so they banned it. JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS IN THE GAME DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT IT.
Tired of it? I can't get enough of it.I am tired of looking at these stale remarks regarding to things such as "If you don't like tripping, don't play" or "learn to deal with it"
