    Official Stage Legality Discussion

    My understanding is that Bridge of Eldin isn't banned because of the walkoffs, but rather because it's enormous size and exceptionally high ceiling make it too possible for a legit match go to time. I seem to remember someone quoting the rationale from the SBR that explained that even without...

    Why is Onett banned ?

    I agree with Commander Beef that Onett is banned because of the walls, however I think the stage is designed to mitigate the other factors that he brought up. As noted, the cars do an exceptionally large amount of damage, however there is a significant warning period before a car appears and...

    Threading the Needle: A Beginner's Guide to Sheik

    I'm glad we're getting constructive responses. We're noting all of the issues people have with the guide and will update them in the next edit which is due out sometime this week. I want to point out that this is a first draft, and we recognize that the senior members of the community probably...

    Threading the Needle: A Beginner's Guide to Sheik

    We're reserving this post for future edits. If anyone wishes to provide us with a short write up of how they play with Sheik we would be happy to include it in the guide along with ours.

    Japanese Scene

    It means that in Japan they play to put on a good show for the audience, so they don't chaingrab or plank unless it looks impressice, and don't repeat strategies for an extended period of time. By contrast, in North America, we play to win, and will do whatever it takes, no matter how boring it...

    Where to get new GC controller!

    Order in a white one from Japan. They have the advantage of being completely new, unlike those from Amazon, and being usable without your Wii placed halfway into your living room. Also it does not really take much longer to deal with the cord, after a few wind ups you cannot even notice it.

    Anyone have any online frustrating/embarassing/regretful experiences to share?

    Zekirra, that is truly tragic, I cannot really match up to that. My condolences.

    Which Element Form in Pokemon Stadium do you prefer?

    I am partial to fire myself, although grass is a close second. I cannot stand the windmill in brawl. Even when I am the one smacking someone around in it, I do not feel good about it.

    original stages resurrected?

    I miss Fourside most of all, but I would love to have the originals back, most of all Hyrule Castle. We need a decent core Zelda stage (although I love Pirate Ship).

    Why is Big Blue banned?

    I just spent some time playing on Big Blue, and I can certainly say that while I hate it, there is no reason it should be banned in an environment that also allows Rainbow Cruise. I played about half of the time as Ganondorf, with whom I can barely fight at all on Rainbow Cruise, and here he had...

    There's really no reason you shouldn't, there's no real age barrier in video gaming.

    Two Mains

    I think in a competitive setting like a tournament you want to be playing a small number of characters as well as you possibly can. One or two is ideal, unless you need more to cover some really bad match ups. However when you're starting out or even just practicing, playing with as many as...
