  • I was going to be heavily critical of your roster you posted in the main Smash thread, because there's definitely some baffling takes in it, but seeing how flat out toxic the comments section was towards you about it (not everyone criticizing it of course, but damn a substantial amount of it sure was) to the point where I don't even want to criticize it now. Hopefully the toxicity being sent your way isn't/ hasn't been too hurtful to you.

    This post made my day - it only sucks because the video took a ton of effort and then I more or less got targeted hatred from (I'm assuming) Xenoblade fans early on (with like 30% of the early traffic coming from Discord servers and direct searches for my channel). I feel like even if people don't like my picks the video is jokey, light-hearted, high-effort and coming from a place of caring about the series - which made me really confused about the toxic nature of responses. I wasn't expecting agreement - I literally made my YouTube channel out of frustration with how much I disagree with much of the common Smash discourse - but there's a difference between disagreement and bile.

    Having come across said video in a Discord server, though I had no idea you were active here; sorry to hear about all the toxicity in the comments. Kinda sucks that it's so necessary to frontload any remotely creative video with qualifiers like "this is just my personal opinion" so that people won't berate you for it... darn. I'm agreed with W3 on Classic Sonic being a cool pick, though. And, well, your Jack Bros. idea's something I'm a huge fan of. (Though, the Devil Buster seems cool too!)

    Oh I would not be surprised if its primarily Xenoblade fans being toxic. Pretty consistently I've found them to be really toxic. This is an old memory that I can't quite remember the specifics of because it was a few years ago, so take it with a grain of salt, but iirc they even mass harassed Thaddeus Crews (NASB dev) on Twitter simply because he said XB2 was the worst one at one point.
