hitboxes are banned for every fighting game major, so I highly doubt these will be legal for Melee tournaments.

Melee will never be taken seriously as a competitive game, especially when their community is widely regarded to be the most toxic inside the entire /fgc/ and nobody wants anything to do with them anymore.

Melee isn't a fighting game either.

Hitboxes were banned when they found out you could hold forward and backwards at the same time to guaranteed block any mixup, even unblockables.

Top Melee Smashers like Leffen were e-mailing outrageous demands to JeBailey saying that they wouldn't attend EVO if they didn't get shit like private hand warming stations, Spongebob CRTs, or floated through the pools because actually having to play in a tournament is beneath people who make a living playing in Melee tournaments. It's toxicity you won't see in any other scene, even the Street Fighter scene that's currently featuring Low Tier God.

It doesn't matter whether it's actually beneficial to the game, or makes you play better or not.

None of that matters.

People who suck at fighting games, and smash, will still buy hitboxes, because they have convinced themselves that input methods are the barrier keeping them from getting good.

Anyone good enough to know when and how to pull off certain maneuvers in a fighting game or smash will have gotten to a point where they are comfortable in the common input tool already.

You can buy a Hitbox if you want, but it won't make you any better than someone else who started in the same position as you learning on a stick, or a gamecube controller for smash.

calling melee a fighting game is an insult. Melee absolutely shits all over traditional fighting games in terms of depth and complexity. It's not even close

No, Smash 4 is way more matchup dependent, and it doesn't have a single character that invalidates half the cast (Sheik in Melee).
Also, having to know 58 or so matchups (which is incredibly difficult for most people) for every single character means that there are characters on the lower tiers that easily can slip through the cracks and surprise people, like LordMix with Bowser. He took 4th at a pretty huge tournament with a character who is mid-tier at the very best.

They're "viable" in that they're capable of making top 8, but they never win.

The difference between top 8 and first place is often a few hits. They're viable.

If this is the case stop doing 4 stock matches. I'm sick of your game going on forever AND you get multiple games on top of that? What the fuck. Either the stocks are a entire set or you have a small amount of stocks and multiple matches. Even 4 gets that. Why can't your game?
>>
>>344203784
Sakurai did, and a lot Smash 4 players are sponsored, which is typically an indicator of a good competitive game.

The problems is that stocks can sometimes end in 3 hits by characters like Fox and Marth, or one good grab by the ICs.
Having 2-stock matches would make the ICs much stronger.

It literally does, people just prefer percent because it's more volatile. if you want to make stamina mode the new meta feel free to try.

>>344204086
If people are watching (sponsors won't sponsor dead games), and it takes a clear demonstration of skill and understanding to win (as it does in Smash 4), it's competitive.

Calling Smash a fighting game is like calling Telltale games visual novels.

I can see the point people are trying to make by saying 'BUT DEY FIGHING SO ITS A FIGHTING GAME DUH" but the term "fighting game" took a much stricter definition then other types of games. Just because they are doing physical act of "fighting" does not make it a "fighting game", much like even though telltale games have a lot of just reading, it does not make them visual novels.

Plus Sakurai said its not a fighting game, I don't understand why people even try to debate this anymore, its not a fighting game.

Yeah, and TF2 has custom soccer maps, so I guess that counts as a sports game, right?

The meta, the main game, the competitive scene, EVERYTHING is based around the percentage mode. If you play it with health, then I guess you could argue that it's a fighting game, but when every tournament is percentage based, it's a party game.

So did the FGC stop shitting on anime fighting games to shit on Smash?
>>
>>344204793
Jigglypuff is a shit character, so shit that there is literally L I T E R A L L Y only one guy who can get to top 8.

Hbox SINGLE HANDEDLY flipped the fox puff matchup on his own, its still widely regarded by top pros to be 70%-30% in favor of fox. Seeing Hbox weave in and out instant death combos at 30% is a skill only few can even fathom. His character can die from one upthrow upair while he has to combo the spacies into fucking oblivion with 50 bairs or a risky rest combo that if he misses he INSTANT LOSES A STOCK.

Hbox is the hero we need, the one who consistently got out-tier'd for his entire life, but he refused to switch to 20XX he fucking pioneered his own character so much to a point that NONE OF THE GODS can replicate it and they all play top tiers pretty consistent except puff.

He fucking won it all, He beat his demons in life when the odds AND fans were always stacked against him. /v/ hates him because they will never craft their own negatives lives into success like him

That doesn't mean it isn't dull as fuck to watch, and he only has himself to blame when he dies at 40% to the strongest fucking up-smash in the game, which for some reason belongs to Fox.

>>344205135
git gud

>>344204151
So? You're dead in 3 combos depending on the character in GG too. One if it's a counter hit and they have meter. We have less rounds and time to boot. sf4 for the longest time had an inescapable vortex on wake up, unblockables and infinites and most characters died in a few combos. 2 rounds 99 seconds.

>>344204805
Please explain why you're above the standards literally every other game currently in rotation uses.

Hitboxes are NOT banned anywhere. You are misinformed. In the very beginning they were banned from a couple of tournaments for Street fighter 4 because you could hold forward and back at the same time and always block. Street fighter released a patch soon after and it was over. It was poor coding in capcoms part as no other game did that, but hitboxes went and changed their firmware as well so that could not hapoen in case there is another lazy company like capcom. So hitboxes are not banned anywhere in the world. Now you know and knowing is half the battle

No, calling melee a fighter is insulting it because you are comparing the skill requirement to that of games like SC, Tekken, or GG. The only fighting game that compares to the skill requirement of melee is third strike

No. The balance is horrible.

I'd say that the most complex and best competetive fighting game was Virtua Fighter but it never really caught on and is now dead

I don't really mind smash at EVO, it's just smashpeople are annoying.
