and, if you're allowed to do this, are you allowed to yell to mess ice climber chain grabs up?
for specific examples, i know that within the past year, ive had ally/vinnie look at my DI before on tech chases or grabs, and i know hbox has done this to drpp in the comments of the zenith 2013 videos (correct me if im wrong?) so that's 3 different instance in both games all to gain an advantage. that pretty much makes it a guaranteed follow up, or much easier than otherwise which I think can be a bit dumb. I know MANY other players that have done this though, so don't think I'm only talking about them, but many players use this tactic of looking at the other person's controller for DI and such.
the 2nd question i have is should it be okay to yell to mess up ice climber chain grabs? I know that once when mikehaze and hylian fought before (marth vs ICs), he yelled really loudly so that it was harder to chain grab. Then there was a rule in effect "the mikehaze rule" where you are not allowed to do that. So about a year ago (actually less) I know that when vinnie went to cali (around vinnie's prime also; late 2012) mikehaze has put his hands up in the air to signal to the crowd to yell and mess up the chain grab. It worked. Apparantly vinnie couldn't concentrate to his best ability and he dropped grabs and ended up losing games he may not have lost otherwise due to this. I often consider doing this but I never do because it feels like cheating, but if the community votes that it should be okay, then I will start to do this in the future.
The 3rd question I have is that there was a new brawl ice climber stalling infinite, where you can chain grab the opponent to kill %, then just grab release them, then you regrab with the other climber, and just hold them in place. You can stall 8 minutes easily with this tactic, and this should obviously be banned under stalling, but we need a more technical way to define it (such as how there is a ledge grab limit number), or else it's just broken.
The 3rd one needs to be banned no matter what. It literally takes no skill, a 5 year old kid can do this consistently with no practice, you can be 29 frames off and still do it consistently and if you're on the same stock as them you have a guaranteed win.
These are 3 questions I have, and yes the reason I am asking is because those that are not in effect, I will take advantage of them myself. I personally think all 3 should be banned for all fairness, but as a competitive player I will still play to win if the rules are not currently fair. This is why I am addressing all 3 of these issues now.
