I can at least understand the concern when there's like 9 stages involved, since it could get a little confusing to remember what stages are left to strike. The average player in pools certainly weren't bothering to properly do stage striking at Evo with that ruleset, because there was too many...

This point is actually something worth debating in and of itself. I don't agree that counterpicking the stage should have a significant impact on the match; in an ideal world, I would prefer if matchups were always even. Of course, given the way that stages work in the Smash series, this is...

2 stock has been the standard for awhile now, and it's been pretty clear to me that the general length of games has been pretty close to perfect. Yeah, it means that SDs or low % gimps have a bigger impact on the game, but increasing the length of games by 50% would just result in certain...

The number of people defending the trash stages in this game is disgusting. It's also amazing how the average player of every group I've seen agrees with me about all these stages being bad, and yet there's a few people defending them that keeps them around, forcing players to ban them rather...

I like 3.5 ZSS. While I do think that dashing out of lasers was fun, it's sensible to remove it given the change to her grab, and I think that change alone makes up for everything that she lost. I suppose the ideal situation would be restoring the ability to dash out of lasers while still...

I agree that giving a standard grab to the 'current' ZSS would be too powerful, but it's been said lots of times that all of the changes shouldn't be taken in a vacuum. Maybe her followups are worse, or maybe she can't dash out of her neutral B anymore, or maybe her grab comes out at normal...

So here I was planning to go to EVO anyway, but I didn't bother donate towards Melee because I didn't think it had a chance of winning. With this news, though, decided to put a donation in after all.

Probably worth noting that her ftilt angled down can outright kill people for some reason. Still not a great move, but it can be useful.

I really like how these videos turned out (although it's been, what, more than a year since our last combo videos?). I hope everyone enjoys them.

:urg: Well, I'm not going to argue. There's maybe a grand total of 8 people even worth mentioning from Newfoundland, and we don't bother keep a thread going here. I'd love to claim that a few members of our group are good, but it'll have to wait until we can get out to a big tournament...

Aha, good to see that video finally go up. That was a good tournament. I thought I picked the Ice Climbers (because you guys had a way with going to Final Destination), but I guess I didn't get around to them in the finals. You guys need to come up here sometime and represent!

Ah, I had completely forgotten about those videos! I can't even remember who I used in that tournament. I'll go ahead and subscribe.

Yes, this is ridiculous. Randomly starting a Metaknight debate here of all places, really? Anyway, good video was good. I want to see more videos of Will from that tournament. **** matches are neat and all but close matches are the ones where someone's skill really shows. Looking forward...

I'm only just now noticing that this video was completed and that one of my clips made it in. Awesome.

A few people from our crew are considering going. Nothing is in stone yet, though.
