Actually, her up special is a tether. This is also the same with Olimar.

I haven't an issue with Safari running the tournament. Perhaps this coming Saturday or something?

Yeah but what they're saying is that those two characters rely on those up specials for recovery and that ledge is unable to be grabbed. I guess it's not, I've never tried it.

I'll be happy to run a tourney, but it won't happen until after the 30th when I'm home. So feel free to do something before I get back.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

There needs to be a time limit to prevent stalling. Eight minutes is standard.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

I'd be interested in a tourney. Even though I'm not the greatest, It'd be fun to play.

If there is a tourney, all participants should post their friend codes and it should be a bracket.
5 or 10 lives?
Items?
The possiblities are endless.

And just because, the stage would be set to random.

No. 3 or 4 stock, no items, 6-8 min time limit, and only certain stages.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

I might be able to join, depending on when it starts.
We should do 4 stock, 8 minute time limit, and only certain stages (Final Destination, Battlefield, Bridge of Eldin, etc.)
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

No to Bridge of Eldin. It's a massive stage with strong hazards with consistent walk off edges that allow for infinites.

Just because it's a flat stage doesn't make it a fair stage.

Plus somehow the bridge spawning gets more kills on me than my opponent every time a play that stage

And SL, if you can shark well I will rip your face off.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

Just use PMJ's list of stages (with a few exceptions), 4 lives, 8 minutes, and no items. Shouldn't be much controversy for that.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

> with a few exceptions

Like what?
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

Shadow Moses, Final Destination, and Halberd are my favorite stages, but I'll play anywhere as long as it's not something dumb like 75m.

Looking forward to the tournament. >:]
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

Personally I would include Frigate Orpheon, since it isn't hard to adapt to the flipping of the stage. Also Green Hill Zone and Green Greens aren't terrible. Pictochat is iffy because of the flames, but whatever.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

If we keep it at Final Destination (Or whatever the very simple space stage is called), I think it would be more simple and skill based.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

Okay, let's hammer this out.

I'm willing to debate any of this so lmk so we can have an enjoyable tourney experience.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

I don't remember the part where we agreed on the MK ban. If you guys discover that I'm "too good" with Meta Knight during the tourney, then I'll gladly use someone else. But until then, I deserve a chance to use him.

EDIT: And that stage list looks fine.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

I'm really okay as long as crap stages like Hanenbow and Big Blue are banned. buuut, why the heck are we allowing Rainbow Cruise?!
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

That list looks great. (But I will probably die in Jungle Japes lol)
Fighting on Rainbow Cruise will be...Risky and interesting.
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

Best 2 out of 3 right? I've never been to any official Brawl tournaments before (Or any SSB or SSBM). I noticed Wario Ware INC isn't in any of the categories.
I assume it's banned, since it's pretty gimmicky. Rainbow Cruise seems like I'd be too gimmicky, it is legal in official tournaments though (I looked that up) so I'm sure it would be too bad. But no one likes it anyway, so it probably won't get picked in the first place. :p
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

This is PokeBeach! Lets set the rule to Pokemon Stadium ONLY XD jk.

The rules look fine.
What do you mean by counter pick?
 
RE: SSB Brawl Discussion Thread

Stages are divided into three groups: starter, counterpick and banned.

Banned stages are the banned stages. They cannot be chosen under any circumstances.
When you begin a set of three, the set must always start on a starter stage, because they are... the starters.
The person who loses the first game gets to pick the stage for the second stage (protip: use some kind of IM device when you play), which is called the counterpick. A counterpick stage can be either a starter or a counterpick. If there is need for a third game, the loser of the second game gets to pick the counterpick.

@PMJ: I don't really think that Luigi's Mansion should be a counterpick. It's got a cave of life, similar to the bottom portion of Hyrule Temple. Having the roof makes grab releases easier to explot as well.
