Re: Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U: NO ITEMS, FINAL DES--PRESENTATION!
So there's going to be a tournament around 11 CST. 45 entrants in singles, 17 doubles, so it'll be going for a bit.
I swear it'll be streamed this time Jesuis. We checked the equipment to make sure it works.
Riiiiiiiight here.
In case anybody wants to watch.
Look for "She-Hulk" or maybe "LoooooooNK" if I decide to use my P:M skill to pull out a pocket Link.
I'm dumb, so it might happen maybe.
E: The Twitch channel changed. I have updated the post to reflect this.

Re: Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U: NO ITEMS, FINAL DES--PRESENTATION!
For any of y'all who are into competitive, eSAM recently made a super cool video about character and self-expectations. Pretty thought-provoking if you're interested in competitive smesh.
So here we are. Plays have been enacted. Empires have come and gone. The mightiest have passed away and withered, alike the least. Fires have burned, thousandfold. Yet, did not the great wind serenely continue its course? Does not the blackbird still sing its song? Does not the mistletoe still dwell in the oak's crown? Forgotten, what once has been told. Veiled, the words that once so rang out. Shrouded, like the larva in its cocoon. Let him hear it, who will.

Re: Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U: NO ITEMS, FINAL DES--PRESENTATION!
I'm not sure who this video targets exactly. Very few that are watching his channel want to be the "very best" at smash, and I don't think those who do actually believe they can get to the top players worldwide without giving themselves the means to do so, unless they're delusional 12 yr-olds or something. Also, the way he's saying it is pretty misleading "if your #1 goal is to win you have to main a top 5 character or you're dishonest". That is ONLY applicable if you want to be a top player worldwide, no matter what char you play that doesn't impact whether one wants to WIN. You might want to play DDD because he's fun, you might want to play ganon to show off, you might want to play zelda to challenge yourself or whatever (also lol esam only finding narcissa as a his #2 "relevant" non-tierwhore player), but that doesn't mean you want to lose.
And that's not even counting the cases where some characters are considered "bad" but are simply unexploited and are suddenly considered good because some guy who was maining them comes out and wins a lot (not even specific to Smash of course, the only thing I can think of was the somewhat recent popularity of Dr Mario after someone (Nairo? idr) wrecked everyone with him at a big tournament, but also Luffy winning EVO 2014 with Rose at Street 4, a character that was considered trash at the time). Some people believe they can win big with a "bad" characters and even Esam doesn't know whether that's possible or not, and I don't know why that means that person is dishonest with themselves.
Like I don't know, to me the video is just "STOP COMPLANING ABOUT CHARACTER TIERS", which is dumb because there's nothing wrong with comparing characters' strengths and weaknesses, be it as a joke or not. And every time I see a video from Esam it always boils down to this ridiculous "people on the internet are mean stop being mean :(" like his video "why top players are quitting" being like "dumb asses insulting on twitter are making people quit" or whatever and being surprised to read these kinds of messages, on the internet, as a relatively famous person. Like... I like Esam as a player because he's amazing at pikachu and I like pikachu, but every time I see one of his videos he kind of irritates me??
Maybe he doesn't like when people call zero or dabuz or him tierwhores, but that doesn't make it less true, that word's definition is the exact thing he's described, that is "only playing top tier characters", the goal you're aiming at by doing so is irrelevant.
I guess the video was entertaining I guess since I watched it to the end. And it made me type that stupid wall of text and "thought-provoked" me, as Kuupa put it.
e : I now realize this post is pretty painful to read lol, congrats if anyone read everything

Bayonetta and Corrin coming out today! (assuming the eshop servers will let you get them)
on a different note, Smashboards finally put out their (un)official tier list. You know, right before a patch.
Have grains of salt on standby, of course.

So here we are. Plays have been enacted. Empires have come and gone. The mightiest have passed away and withered, alike the least. Fires have burned, thousandfold. Yet, did not the great wind serenely continue its course? Does not the blackbird still sing its song? Does not the mistletoe still dwell in the oak's crown? Forgotten, what once has been told. Veiled, the words that once so rang out. Shrouded, like the larva in its cocoon. Let him hear it, who will.

Wow it's almost like Sakurai has been noted to dislike the competitive Smash scene, and it still shows even after that crapshow known as Brawl.

Re: Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U: NO ITEMS, FINAL DES--PRESENTATION!
I don't get why everyone is so mad about this. Some moves like kirby's dtilt already have a chance (pretty sure it's also 25%) of making the opponent trip and noone bats an eye.
It's nowhere near as stupid as Brawl tripping or something. It's rare, requires 100% damage, requires reaction time from the player (which is good, I wish more moves required quick adaptation), and the victim can DI up to prolong hitstun until he can jump/tech. It's just sad that this mechanic seems to benefit already pretty defensive characters like fox and mario that never take any risk, now they'll just spam nair until the stars align.

That would be awful. It has been proved numerous times that guaranteed kill setups out of a 2 frame move have no place in Smash (diddy, Luigi, bayonetta...)TaviTurnip wrote:That would be a lot nicer if it was... well, of no intended irony, 100%.

Re: Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U: NO ITEMS, FINAL DES--PRESENTATION!
To be honest I'm completely blind to Smash Wii U and only watch it at EVO, so >_> As a concept, I like the idea of a kill setup off a short move after 100% damage (the range where you should be dying) but I'm not really surprised if Diddy or Bayo are the worst culprits of something like this.Jesuiscontent wrote:That would be awful.

With all the recent Wii U ports being announced (Tropical Freeze, Hyrule Warriors), that's not a surprise, but it's still neat.
