  1. Sm4sh sucks as a competitive game because I didn't see a single Duck Hunt player at EVO

    1. @redenchilada Clearly the fearsome destructive power of his neutral B was banned competitively, Duck Hunt is just the new Meta.

      1. @northernnarwhal They probably banned him for actually being like 8 characters at once

        1. @redenchilada I didn't watch EVO, who was being used a lot? Shiek? Rosalina?

          1. @northernnarwhal From what I saw it was a lot of those two, yeah. I remember someone was running a doc showing the most popular characters, so I might be able to find that link

            1. @redenchilada Those two, Shiek in particular, are currently considered the highest tier competitive characters for Smash 4. Diddy Kong is generally really highly regarded too.

              1. @northernnarwhal Yeah, they were basically the only thing in finals. Even the one Pac-Man player I was rooting for switched to Rosalina in finals and I basically stopped watching after that

                1. @redenchilada Rosalina and Shiek are essentially the new Fox and Marth (from Melee) when it comes to competitive matches in that they're pretty much all you see.

                  1. @northernnarwhal I'm going to go to EVO next year and bring Duck Hunt all the way to finals

                    Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:26:48 UTC from web
                    1. @redenchilada I'll watch as you triumphantly win the finals, holding the controller above your head in glory. A single teardrop will roll down my cheek, and I'll quietly whisper "nice meme" to my computer screen.

                      1. @northernnarwhal I forgot to mention I'll also being Wiimote+Nunchuck, the ultimate meme control scheme

                        1. @redenchilada Don't forget to turn on items and play a timed match!

                          Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:32:01 UTC from web
                          1. @northernnarwhal I'll bribe the judges into letting us play the final round on Pac-Land

                            Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:32:30 UTC from web
                            1. @redenchilada And it'll be a 4 player match instead of a 1v1!

                              Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:33:56 UTC from web
                              1. @northernnarwhal 300% Smash with 99 stock is the only way to close out the finals!

                                Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:36:42 UTC from web
                                1. @redenchilada With the only item being those items that grant you an extra life set with a high occurrence rate.

                                  1. @northernnarwhal That... would actually make for a very exciting and suspenseful match.

                                    1. @alexkadin Red and I tried something similar in the past and it turned out to be pretty boring after a while, actually.

                                      1. @northernnarwhal ...aww

                                        Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:42:34 UTC from web
                                        1. @alexkadin After a while our lives were only incrementally going up and we realized neither of us would ever win.

                                  2. @northernnarwhal HELL YEAH I LOVE S-FLAG MATCHES

                                    Wednesday, 22-Jul-15 02:39:15 UTC from web
