Where shadows dare to tread_
Rebels without a cause_ This intrigues me as to their choices for starting lists and CP lists_ Norfair should be banned and i disagree with the initial strike of 3 stages, then 4, then stage choice_ I prefer the method of taking turns to strike an odd number of stages until 1 is left to use as the starter_

That stage striking wouldn't work very well in Perth, given that only 10 people are truly "ranked", and even that is just in accordance with a panel decision :p

I prefer our system ^^

Same here Bob. I'd want to try that number of starters though.

Other 'fun' things that will hopefully change with the MLg rules

Some people have infinites banned, others don't (banned infinites don't even exist)
Team Attack Off
Higher Seeded team gets Port Priority (BBAA instead of ABBA/BAAB)

New ds has been confirmed for 2011 and it's called 3DS.

It will use 3D graphics in the screen.

Just thought you guys would want to know.

Last tournament pokemon stadium was a neutral? What are peoples thoughts on this? Do you think we should change it to a counterpick or just leave it as a neutral?

In an alternate universe.
leave it as a neutral, in my opinion.

i dont think the stage specifically puts anyone in a disadvantage
but i may be wrong

it's more neutral than Halberd maybe, in terms of hazards and things.

the area changes are annoying, especially when i've got someone grabbed.

but im a noob, dont listen to me

Well there is stage striking so if you don't wish to play on that stage you can ban it simple. And if evens out the stage strike system much better.

Just wanted to see what everyone thinks as a whole.

I somtimes try to mind game my opponent when stage striking. ;)

What really ticks me off about that ruleset is the fact that you both can't play the same character in teams.... seriously is there any reason you can't?
Its just a rule used in many other fighting game 2v2s, to prevent teams from just becoming (in this case) stacked MKs.

They're good starters, I was going to use that exact 9 at one point. It's not hard to strike against MK, I 'd strike.
Battlefield
Castle Siege
Delfino Plaza

Final Destination
Halberd
Lylat Cruise

Pokémon Stadium
Smashville
Yoshi’s Island

The stages left aren't good for MK.

yeah i agree with your striking i in no way think castle and delfino should be on any starter list. Also a bit iffy on helbred. I dont like mlg's starting system as other have said our system is more "fair"

What's wrong with Castle and Delphino? All the starters shouldn't be the same basic stage (FD, SV, Battlefield) because all it does is give a free CP to the characters that are good on those stages (Falco, diddy, ect)

FD benefits everyone with a projectile.

What's your point there will always be stages that some characters do better on than others, there's a reason why they're called starters and not neutrals.

9 neutrals is cool

Seriously guys on paper it might seem bad but in practice you probably won't be playing on those stages you loathe because you can strike it.

CP stages are a different story because you are limited to banning only one stage.

Yeah thats right.

It's just the fact that i don't see delfino being a starter. It just waste time it being there.

Okay Alzi, name me another level which isn't included which is more neutral that Delfino, if we only have 8 neutrals one person doesn't get a counterpick, hence unfair.

We shouldn't have 8 neutrals in the first place. ;)

I also like the rule in doubles were one team cannot have the same rule. It's actually a nice rule and i think it should be a official rule in the rule set. Friendly Fire on though not off like what MLG has decided to do. >_>.

The only problem i find with friendly fire off is that people just spam stuff and win so thats why i would rather have friendly fire on which makes it more challenging and more fun.

whats wrong with castle and delphino? you've already adressed whats wrong with it in that very post, it gives a free CP to characters that are good on those stages, furthermore they are much better on those stages then characters who can use fd,sv or bf.

stuff mlg rules, just stick to the good old ****.

castle siege walkoff benefits any1 with a chaingrab or lock ie pika,diddy,icies,dedede also delfino mk!
The walkoffs aren't permanent, and are easily avoidable by fighting on the platforms that are around in that period. If someone wants to camp a corner and wait for you to aproach on that particular transformation, let em.


Lol Delfino Plaza is no way a starter.
Why?

9 neutrals is cool

Freaking this x128. If the stages are good against your opponent or bad for your character, strike em. Generally the idea is that with 9 stages, you strike the 4 you don't want to fight on, your opponent strikes the 4 they don't want to fight on, and you should end with a fair stage for the both of you.

whats wrong with castle and delphino? you've already adressed whats wrong with it in that very post, it gives a free CP to characters that are good on those stages
That statement is both correct, and not. Yes, in a way it does give an advantage to characters who do well on those types of stages. BUT. Big but. We already have characters who have preference to flat stages having that. This way, ideally, it's a bit more balanced. The characters who get hosed on flat stages now have more of a chance and the characters that thrive on flatness now don't start at an advantage.

Luke is the ****** bully who just walks in a thread post somthing and ends the argument and makes everyone have a OMG what just happened face. Then Luke supporters scream WHERE YOU AT? WHERE YOU AT?

I will seriously use metaknight next tournament if Delfino is a starter stage. Not saying i suck on it with toon link i actually do well on it and it's a good toon link stage but i will go metaknight as i like to end my games quick and fast.

Yeah i'm actually going to try out metaknight for this one tournament in a few games to see how i go.

Glenn i think i should come over early in the morning or somthing then you take me to the tournament and back home. :D

Also trills signature made me lol.

So people are now taking into consideration diffrent starters just because MLG are using them as a rule set.

I don't mind whatever happens to the starters all i'm saying is it's a bad idea to have delfino and castle seige in there. Theres only one reason really because you will face Alzi's metaknight. lol.

Also this tournament i will try and do some commentary since it will be my last before flying of to Sydney.

More starters isn't a big deal. at all.
If i was playing against someone who uses dedede or falco i'd just strike castle siege. If you feel you're at a huge disadvantage on a stage on the list of starters then all you have to do is strike the stage you don't want.
Don't pretend the additions would be a big deal

That being said i'm all for having the big D moved into starters because you all know how much i love it;)

lololol get sigged


you make a good point mic, I guess its just up to people to decide wether they want an opponent to have a good advantage all match (like diddys stage control on fd for example)
or have a super **** advantage during certain portions of the match (like d3's walkoffs on delphino)
