What makes you rage?

Frio · Dec 18, 2010

Why hello there children. I'm starting up a guide on how to get your opponents so full of rage he (Probably not a she. If it is a she it's some guys gf and she doesn't care anyways and just wants more attention than a video game) can't play well at all. Some I'm asking for some help. Please just list somethings that make you rage.

TL;DR version, What makes you rage?

Projectiles that stun, such as Yoshi's eggs, Wolf's blaster, Link's arrows, etc. Doesn't necessarily make me "rage," just provides a little more complicated match.

Your avatar scares me...

That's pretty much every projectile in the game except for Fox's Blaster and Pikmin Toss (when it's not Purple).

This is true

I guess I just don't like projectiles, haha.

Scary Pika is scary.

When someone runs and avoids conflict then I usually get mad and play less safely.

Camping, playing against boring characters

I wanna comboooooooo

Supreme Dirt · Dec 20, 2010

Comboing, getting combo'd.

InfiniteBlaze · Dec 20, 2010

Olimar and diddy kong

those two are the sole reasons i quit brawl aaaaaaaaaaahhh

SnoreStory · Dec 21, 2010

I have a list:

-Mr. Game and Watch
-Getting a Party Ball with Bom-ombs in it.
-Lucario
-People who obsess over freakin' tournament rules.
-People who talk crap.
-People who care about "tiers"
-Off-Waves

GanonkingAbyss · Dec 21, 2010

i hate characters who have easy to use combos that always work and rack up like 70% and then they just spam smash attack when we're at the ledge until we die, like falco's cg, dairs, cgs, etc vs d3 and marios dthrow to uairs vs d3 and his dairs and fireballs-> grab

Limeee · Dec 21, 2010

this is probably not a good place to post this thread, since people here never go to tournaments but:
-trashtalkers
-******s
-diddy
-falco
-getting juggled by tornado
-falco's jab
-getting your options shut down

Brawl wifi.

It makes me rage even when I win. Serious. It's so stupid.

My sentiment exactly, I hate that appalling lag and the inability to fight strangers with a decent ruleset.

Claire Diviner · Dec 22, 2010

The things that vex me, other than wi-fi lag, would be players who play super defensive. Not that I have a problem winning against them, more than the match becomes boring and drags on. Because they're so defensive, I can't do things that's combo video-worthy (on most occasions), and the matches always last too long to save replays. It's just a long and tedious borefest that makes my win feel unsatisfying. Other than that, nothing else.

I could say "I hate projectiles, MK's 'Nado, etc.", but those things can be toppled if you know the match-up and - by extension - know how to deal with them.

Kadardes · Dec 22, 2010

Brawl wifi is the sole reason I quit brawl.. If it didn't lag so much I bet there would be twice as many people playing =\

Fly2D · Dec 23, 2010

I'm a girl. I main G&W. I DO have a boyfriend but I also DO care about the game. In answer to your question, sexist comments make me rage...

So 1% brawl players compared to 99% of melee players? yep lol.

Jonas · Dec 23, 2010

Losing consecutive matches can get on my nerves a bit. It's amplified online because I don't have have direct contact with my opponent, and because wifi lag screws you over.

It's more like 2% of brawl players and 98% of melee players. JEEZ

Diddy Kong's dang Bananas, Dedede's grab range, and Bowser's ineptness if he's being juggled!

Right on the moneyz! :laugh:

Another thing that upsets me are people who get too angry for losing too much. I mean, if you're losing that badly almost every time, then either study your opponent's attack patterns better, learn the match-up, or just get better yourself. I've seen a friend near rage and almost throw his controller because he kept losing. I'm like, "guy, relax, it's just a game in hindsight. My god". >___>

@Ally: What happened to your avatar of (what I assume to be) you raging? I thought it was cool. XD

WritersBlah · Dec 24, 2010

Above all else, chaingrabs and annoying taunts really get on my nerves. Just because my only character that can chaingrab also can only use it in specific situations doesn't make it any less annoying when someone else does it successively, several times in a row. And characterwise, Pit and Peach. They have the spammiest movesets ever (I'd say even worse than MK!) and the fact that they have the most annoying taunts in the game (even worse than Sonic) doesn't help.

Anthon1996 · Dec 24, 2010

Here's a list:

-Stupid chaingrabs and infinites (hello, Dedede).

-Taunt parties (what's the point? Unless there's a hacker, but you just have to pray they won't pick the Homerun Contest stage or anything like that, if you know what I mean...)

-Lag.

-Zelda's up smash.

-Noobs that spam one move over and over and over and over and over again (like those Kirbys that keep spamming the rock move) and how Snakes, after dying, sneak up close to you, desperately trying to even out the stocks with an easy up tilt or forward tilt if you're at a high enough percentage.

I feel your pain...alot. Many of my best matches were longer than 3 minutes. Srsly? 3 minutes? That's way too short. What, were they THINKING?! I need some hax.

Lol I realized that too after reading this thread. And then there's Ally (ohaider)...

As to what makes me rage...simple...

BSP · Dec 27, 2010

Losing, and knowing that you could've won if you wouldn't have made some simple mistakes.

Pogoshark · Dec 27, 2010

People who steal kills using Fox's blaster :l

When you get stuck in a repeating A combo, like with Kirby.

Well, I have very little patience, so I am also the type of person to run things Also, when my team loses, as it happens I do not even want to be human.

Claire Diviner · Jan 1, 2011

Things that make me rage?

A couple of things:

A) For some reason, playing against blatant noobs who know not what they're doing can be more annoying and difficult to take down for some reason... not that they ever win, but still.
B) Unnecessary taunting: whether the opponent doesn't do anything to take a stock, or simply taunts for no reason. The CPUs are notorious for that.

That's about it. I'll probably think of something else that's rage-inducing when that time comes. XD

Benify · Jan 1, 2011

Any Mr.game and Watch users spamming their smash attacks! I cant get past them without Metaknight

Krystedez · Jan 1, 2011

3 things that make me rage;

1.) a hard, long-drawn out match, and I try to push for the kill but end up being killed at a low percent for my impatience...

2.) Getting ook'd.

3.) Not being able to do the things I want to do (controller johns or others...)

But I get over it quite quickly.

OnlyUseMeNades · Jan 1, 2011

Spamming Moves (Tornado

)

The bananas

Losing streaks

Being juggled

Wifi lag

Sonic and Kirby's taunts

Not sure how you would put all of this in a guide, but the ideas isn't terrible

It's not spam if you can't get past it -_-; It just means that you're running straight into his smashes...

Spacing will help solve this, as will patience.

I just figured out another thing that makes me rage: elitists who down others for not using top tier characters. XD
