I am writing this post to address the major issue of one of the most unwarranted bans in any game played at a serious, competitive level. It's things like this that make us laughable to people who play other fighting games like Street Fighter and Marvel; warrantlessly banning things just because we don't want to learn to deal with it, even when it is beatable and not even overpowering.
I find it absurd that this community has gone so far as to ban a character that isn't even very good. It's clear that the PM community and perhaps the Smash community at large are not truly "Playing to Win" and willing to learn to take their game up a notch, as opposed to learning how to play better. This ban was put in to effect with virtually no debate that I can find, and implemented in every ruleset I've seen, and this injustice needs to stop. We have to start playing the real game, with all characters legal, instead of this limited metagame we've created.
I am, of course, referring to the unfair banning of Giga Bowser.
Giga Bowser is a terrible character, who probably isn't even top five in the game. (All of the linked clips were recorded from two casual matches by two terrible players.)
Learn to play, scrubs.
Legalize Giga Bowser.
