- Absolutely NO CUSSING in the store, or the store owner can throw you out.

Why is Meta Knight banned?
I believe the dominance of the character, as well as the popularity to just pick him up to win on a counter-pick stage against a lot of characters, really dampers the competitive smash community.

and one more.
