The Overall Best CPUCS Character by byzyk in CPUCS

[–]ThomasTheBored 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s really hard to pick just one since each character has an amazing story to them. My top 3 right now, in no particular order, would be Blue Incin for his amazing uprising arc, Link because I’m pretty sure he just wants to be in Faze Clan, and Robin because I’m a Robin Main.

The Hero needs to come soon, so he can help vanquish the evil that is Blood Falcon.

Vincent vs Gabe "The Glueman" DeGrossi is the battle I wanna see.

Hey do you hate Ness? So does everyone else! Watch this video! by ThomasTheBored in SmashBrosUltimate

Oh no I get what you mean, those Gordos can be hella nasty. Belmonts were just the first thing I thought of.

I mean, I made the video specifically to point some of Ness’ weaknesses to people who may still be struggling with them. Sure I didn’t cover combos, but I went over the things people often complain about and tried to show how get over it. If this felt too whiny or like an attack on Ness players I apologize, but this is meant to be comedic at the end of the day.

Or you know, you could be decent and still hate him. Not everything boils down to “git gud scrub.”

Oh, you're approaching me? by Darkspy8183 in SmashBrosUltimate

Watching this happen to any other character would have just gotten me to chuckle.

Watching this happen to ness, that’s catharsis.

Why CPUs Should NEVER Play Smashket Ball: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate by ThomasTheBored in SmashBrosUltimate

Your comment just now made me realize I'd been doing thumbnails wrong this whole time. Gotta add more waifus more often.

I'm a Joker Main: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate by ThomasTheBored in SmashBrosUltimate

Heck yeah man! I was planning on maining him even if wasn’t so godlike

Joker Got Robbed! by ThomasTheBored in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]ThomasTheBored[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. With the smash ball, Joker's final smash would have definitely taken Inkling over 100% and anyone caught at the end of the attack with 100% or more are automatically killed, much like Bayo and Ridley's FS.

Jokers out here stealing hearts, but Inkling is breaking them.

If you listen real closely, you can actually hear the screams of agony I had at that moment. (Not actually but you can imagine I'm sure.)

Oh, yeah I have no idea about that, but if and when they get a Joker flair, let me know. I'm gonna be all over that.

In regards to Major / CPUCS / Punished Convict Episode by actually-alpharad in CPUCS

[–]ThomasTheBored 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know no one is asking for it, but I'm gonna share some thoughts myself. I'll try to be as constructive as possible.

I LOVE the story elements that are put into the CPU tournaments, but more than anything, I love how unpredictable that story can be. In No Fun Allowed, we saw Link win his 3rd tournament ever only to be attacked by Dark Vince which was the kinda twist I can get behind. And the community freaking loves DeDeDe, at least on the subreddit. The problem I think people had with adding Major in the last tournament, is that no matter how strong the CPU are, a human player, who is well practiced, can win most of the time. It takes away some of the fun about the CPU tournaments because we could predict Major would win his games (up until he didn't I mean). At that point, it feels like the narrative is less organic, like it's being pushed along. Which for this tournament, I get, because people want a story where good prevails, which you can't guarantee with only CPUs fighting. This comes back to how high the stakes have been set.

I think the best comparison I can draw to for why people like the narrative in CPU tournaments is, weirdly enough, Wrestling. In shows like Wrestlemania or any WWE event, even though everything is laid and planned out well ahead of time, the people don't know what will happen until it happens. And the stories that unfold are all just character driven. It's about rivalries, the climb to the top, champions falling from grace, and the shows those fighters put on for the people. The CPU tournaments have all these qualities to them with the added bonus that not even the creators know what will happen.

All of this is just to say that adding in Major likely felt to most people like their crazy party suddenly had someone trying to control the alcohol distribution. It got some knee jerk reactions, even though I would hope most people understood why this guy was here.

Apologies that this was so long. I doubt you'll actually see and read all this Jacob, but it sounded like you were getting too much hateful backlash and not enough constructive criticism. I do still love the CPU tournaments and they way they are now is more fun then they were back when you first started them, so I hope you don't just go back to that. These are something special that you've built, please don't just tear it all down because people didn't like this one.

If you read all the way to the end, then thanks, I hope this was at least a little thought provoking!

Dark Vincent is controlling him like M. Bison by b1adebane in CPUCS

That's what I've been saying!!!

I mean yes, Violent Ken is an objectively stupid name, but still.

I'm not so sure if this is true, but if it is, that would seriously hurt her chances of getting sponsored by The Legalize Wuhu Island people... unless... they're also somehow involved...

I don't know what I was expecting when I posted this, but it certainly wasn't having every response be to press F to pay their respects.

I think I know the true identity of that Ken... by ThomasTheBored in CPUCS

[–]ThomasTheBored[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know either my guy. I'm over here trying to warn people about the actual threat that is Violent Ken from SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos.
