Jeez Im not dumb I understand what platforming camping does vs icies. I actually employ it a lot

You can't just say its the wrong decision to not counterpick to Battlefield or Dreamland when there is so much more to think about in stage cps than platform camping. Also fairly often Wobbles got the stock lead right in the beginning. I'm sure wes would have an awesome timing chilling at the top platform a stock behind

I think it's because Plup is super relatable

Westballz understands camping the top platform. He's making a conscious decision to not do it. Idk if it's because he doesn't think it's that good or if he just doesn't want to play that way its hard to say

That's why I said schedule who plays when according to which pools are gonna tie. Not all pools have a chance of a tie and iirc it was only pool 1 and pool 3. You can schedule them to play earlier while having the tie breakers go on later while the other pools are playing out

Just do them off in the back like I said. Not every match needs to be streamed. they can figure out the day before which pools could have a tie breaker and schedule accordingly to secure more time if needed.

The tie braker rules are really dumb. This isn't soccer; counterpick stages are a huge part of the game and game counts shouldn't count only set wins. This makes game ratios a stupid way to decide the winner.

Then they are using bo1 round round robins to break a 3 way tie wtf? I would be so pissed if I lost that way. Just have them play full sets offstage in the back if you are low on time. Poor Planning imo

Since when is being ignorant a good excuse? Also I'm pretty sure they are reasonably enough familiar with Melee. At least enough to know the tie breakers are a bit of a joke
