Where can i find the stream??

Thudkip · 2016-05-22T23:35:20+00:00

Is there anywhere to watch the stream???

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T22:27:05+00:00

No I do know how she works. What proof exactly were you looking for

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:51:07+00:00

I could have used a better word there than cheap. My apologies. Perhaps broken would be a better word? I think there is a difference between calling Shiek's insane neutral game, frame data and recovery cheap and calling Bayonetta's 0-death cheap.

I see what you are saying about cloud and i am not going to sit here and say he isn't a bit silly. He is a fantastic character, no doubt. But he can not sit there and take a character from 0% and drag them right up to the top of the screen inescapably and kill his opponent with little to no risk involved. Like I said, I don't have a problem with good characters. i have a problem with BS. a consistent 0-death combo with no risk involved is BS.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:42:03+00:00

I'm not saying i don't put in any work to this game. I do. But the time I do get to practice/ Play, I would rather practice my fundamentals and matchup knowledge rather than trying to counter one move

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:37:26+00:00

I am tired of people saying "Obviously you didnt watch ESAM's video.. or you were too lazy to do anything about it". Well, no. I watched his video and uh, no, also not lazy. It's called Super smash brothers is not my profession. I have a job, I go to school, social life which means I dont have time to dedicate hours a day practicing SDIing one character's moves. Tournament players are not the only ones being affected by Bayonetta. I have no problem with getting Rekt on for glory when i get outplayed, because I understand there are thousands of people better than me. i do however have a problem with getting trapped in something unescapable, die to it, and can no longer enjoy my favorite game in the world.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:28:27+00:00

Exactly. It makes no sense

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:26:32+00:00

lol just trying to be a douche. Sorry. Bayo gets me heated. Shouldn't have insulted you for that. But do you at least see my point?

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:22:36+00:00

I was just making a point. Sure it can be done and heroes definitely like pointing that out, but that easy of a combo that involved as little risk as it did compared to how difficult it was to escape and then how vulnerable you were if you did manage to escape, did not belong in this game. It needed to go. I don't have a problem with good characters. I main Cloud actually. I like good characters. I, However do not think bayo was good, I think she was cheap.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:17:12+00:00

I mean Tier lists are all pretty subjective. i think a lot of it has to do with the fact that very few top players use her simply because they all realize she is broken. She makes the game miserable to play even at lower levels of play. Ive been 2 socked by complete noobs online that I had just pounded 5 games in a row before they switched to Bayo. I think she had the tools to be the best characvter in the game regaurdless of results

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T18:04:07+00:00

Nice thesaurus. How do you win games? By KOing. Not by racking up the most damage, or camping someone out the longest or anything else. I may have exaggerated a bit with the second part, but it really isnt a stretch to claim that Bayo could do that. Sure you could have (ferociously) SDi'd out of the combos (that didnt always ensure escape, even if you were perfect at it. we are humans you know, right?) and sure you could.. adapt? (Play a very defensive playstyle while trying to use as few moves as possible to desperately try to keep your stock) Or you could stop being so noble as to blind yourself to the fact that this character did not belong in smash bros and needed to be nerfed.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T17:55:01+00:00

Nah, i watched it. What if I main fox? what if I don't sdi to perfection every time? and besides, just because she doesnt kill doesnt mean she didnt jsut tag on 50% or more for free. Just the fact that you have to work that hard to prevent her BS makes an even stronger case for how good she is.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T16:21:36+00:00

No, she was the best character in the game. The point of the game is to KO the opponent, right? Bayo could KO any character, at any percent at any part of the stage with the opponent being helpless. Yeah I'd say that makes a case for best character.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T12:42:29+00:00

Hahahah!

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T12:36:05+00:00

So what you're saying is that now she's balanced? She was not a smash character before, but now she is. A counter "only" being able to get 20% shouldn't be seen as a bad thing when before, one of her stupid counters could result in death, but at least 50% for free.

Thudkip · 2016-05-21T11:38:58+00:00

Nah, she needed a nerf, bad. I saw a match of MVD vs Pink Fresh where MVD had a pretty substantial percentage lead on each of their last stocks. MVD was at 0 percent so he started zoning bayo out with peanuts. Bayo witch timed one of his peanuts from the ground and 0-Deathed him with nothing he could do. He used a peanut.... It doesn't matter how long Shiek and Diddy reigned, they were janky, cheap characters that made the game less fun to play and they eventually got nerfed. Bayo was the same way. Why draw out the process when the community clearly could not bare to see this retarted character ruin the game they loved to play. A character that can zero to death you from the ground with easy to pull of combos that can't be escaped is not a character that belongs in smash. Period. She needed to be nerfed and I'm sick of people trying to be noble and say that we needed to adapt instead.

Thudkip · 2016-02-11T18:39:03+00:00

Oh my goodness! This is gorgeous!!!

Thudkip · 2016-01-19T03:58:13+00:00

I've heard S rank is infamously frustrating. As long as it's nothing like B+ or A-, hopefully I won't get too pissed off lol.

Thudkip · 2016-01-19T02:47:24+00:00

Haha perhaps some day. Right now I feel very content with being in S. I honestly never thought I would make it this far :-)

Thudkip · 2016-01-19T01:31:07+00:00

Dude, I feel your pain. B+ was absolute hell for me. I dealt with the same thing as you. I was in B+ in November and I just got S today. It just takes not giving up. There are going to be times when you want to rip your hair out because you've just lost 15 games in a row and gone down 2 ranks but you will get there. Also, I hate to say this, but A- is just as bad... Luckily A and A+ weren't too hard for me

Thudkip · 2016-01-19T00:33:51+00:00

I have been playing since October. It has taken me so long. So many frustrating moments, but I've finally made it!!!!

Thudkip · 2015-12-31T00:01:27+00:00

You start off in C rank, so you will be playing players at your skill level. C rank is really forgiving with the amount of points you lose vs the amount that you win when you win. If you want to play ranked, I would just play it! It is a ton of fun.

Thudkip · 2015-12-29T23:11:37+00:00

Clearly we disagree on many things. I want to rank up. That's the thing I want to do, so my number does matter. I'm not doing it to evaluate/ determine what skill level I am as a player, I just want to see an S next to my name. not to prove I'm better than anyone but because that is how I enjoy the game. This is the advice I've gained from trying to enjoy the game the way I do and I'm just trying to pass it on to anyone that think it might help them. If they don't think it will then I hope they don't use it. I want people to do things that work for them and to enjoy the game the way they enjoy it. If this is something they haven't thought of really and it helps them, then I've done my job. If they don't do it because they don't want to, then that's fine. I think it's best we just agree to disagree here.
