What is Discord?
Discord is an instant messenger (think Skype, or IRC) that has been making leaps and bounds within many gaming communities, the Smash community being no exception.
--------------------------------
What can it do?
Discord can allow you to chat with multiple people online with little lag between messages in real-time (as opposed to needing to refresh the page aka Reddit). There are different channels set up to help filter you through different types of discussion.
------------------------------
Why should I join?
You should join because it will allow you to interact with the premier competitive Olimar/Alph community in Super Smash Bros. 4. Multiple different Skype groups are actually currently converging into this single Discord chat. There are people dedicated to advancing the meta of Olimar/Alph on there and it is progressing very rapidly.
----------------------------------
What about this subreddit?
Don't worry, this subreddit is here to stay. While Discord is good for finding matches quickly and discussing theory in real-time, subreddits have the benefit of allowing the user to read older posts more-easily and give their input even if the conversation has already passed.
----------------------------------
How do I join?
Click here! (You will need to make an account if you haven't already done so for a different Discord)
This is moderated and there is a rule list that must be adhered to or you will be banned.
------------------------------------
If you have any other questions/concerns, don't hesitate to ask!
