I've never known someone who would continue that strategy after they get their asses handed to them soundly a few matches in a row.

Why does that bother you? If you remotely know what you're doing, they can't possibly win. You beat them a few times and they'll eventually change strategies or characters.

You guys just sound like sore losers. One of my friends would find something to complain about no matter what I did, as I would consistently beat him. He compained if I edgeguarded in any way, used the same attack more than once or twice in a row, didn't mindlessly run at him and attack, or used any advanced technique. Now, I consider myself a tournament-level player (and have been to tournaments), but, with friends, I usually play with random level with items on medium. You, like my friend, wants everyone to conform to their lack of skill and experience with the game, dumbing down the game a lot. I love playing the game, but when, even if I don't wavedash, edgeguard, shffl, etc., my friend would still slam his controller down and storm off, it pissed me off probably far more than it pisses you off when you can't compensate for edgehogging. EDIT: Did Jack actually just complain about someone using the C-stick?

Aren't you advocating your own "right way to play" by denying that edgehogging is a legitimate strategy? Haha, BigBoss, you're so whiny. I don't edgehog people because I know my friends don't like it, but if someone edgehogs me, I don't whine about it like the bitch you are.

I always thought Zero Suit Samus was a dumb idea for a character anyway. I hope she's not actually selectable.

yeah too bad there's no way to punch or throw another character into the line of fire

neat stage

if the dk rap isnt in the game i will not buy the game and also i will slit my wrists

Old or boring or lame or minor or inconsequential or unexciting updates are not good. Daily updates are not neccesarily good. Lame info daily? Yeah, that just sucks. Something is better than nothing? No, not neccesarily, especially if that 'something' is just stupid stuff nobody cards about. Daily updates =/= Good.

Your music inspired a generation.

Fuck you. And you guys need your heads checked if you read "they could get rid of Character X and I wouldn't mind" as "I hope they drop that fucking Character X!"

You guys are fucking retarded. I am saying I wouldn't care if those characters were removed because, in my opinion, they are unimportant and unappealing. I'm sure some F-Zero fanboy would think I'm an idiot and that all the characters should be replaced by Octo-Man or some other gay F-Zero shit, but hey, I calls 'em like I sees 'em.

F-Zero characters pretty much suck. They could get rid of Captain Falcon for all I care. Hell, they could get rid of Captain Falcon, Falco, Dr. Mario, Young Link, Ice Climbers, Mr. Game & Watch, Pichu, Roy, Marth, and Sheik, and I wouldn't mind. Ice Climbers and Young Link are two of my top three gameplay-wise, but they're still ridiculous characters. Zero-Suit Samus falls into this category too.

I'd guess a Phendrana or Magmoor stage.

The old Smash thread got to the 300s or 400s, I believe. Also, the OCR Christians thread is larger.

as long as they pretend like the awful ps2 game didn't happen

They shouldn't shove characters in just for the sake of having more than one character from each game. There is only one character that matters in the Metroid series. Sakurai said, "I put Zero Suit Samus in thinking I wanted to include more characters from the popular Metroid series. Also, since Smash Bros. has few female characters, I was quite happy to include her." I don't know if this makes it more or less likely that Ridley is in the game, however.

They've pretty much already established Ridley's size in the intro video for Melee, where he's not all that much larger than Samus. Of course, I think Ridley is a shitty character who shouldn't be in the game, but his size would not be a restricting feature.

this thread has never had good discussion the original smash thread at least had maybe ten pages of it

Wavedashing is easy, fun, and in no way ensures a win. EVs are extremely easy to understand unless you are literally mentally retarded and take very little time to actually implement. Stop being a bitch. Basically, you want the game to be Mario Party.

So the people who play the game the most miss the point? You guys are retarded if you think wavedashing gives a player that big of an advantage. What gives a person who wavedashes an advantage is the fact that they've played the game a shit ton. To make the game distasteful to tournament players, you'd have to make the outcome of each game virtually random. Don't get me wrong, I like Mario Party, but I'd prefer to keep that out of my Smash. EVs in Pokémon were never a glitch or an exploit (not to mention that they take virtually no time to learn and take advantage of), and I'm not convinced wavedashing is in Smash. And it doesn't even really give that huge an advantage to those who do it. It just gives you more options while you are playing, which, in my opinion, makes the game more fun.

starcraft2.com has been registered since before they announced SC: Ghost.

He said that Warhammer 40k shoved the LotR setting into space. Earlier he said that Starcraft ripped its setting off from Warhammer 40k. Therefore, my statement that Starcraft is in no way LotR in space is relevant and a refutation of his point that its setting is a ripoff of Warhammer 40k's.

Starcraft's setting isn't remotely LotR in space.

Alas, I'm going to be in DC next week for a Gwen Stefani concert, and I doubt I can afford to go two months in a row.
