    Banning Bayonetta in Tournaments

    I have the urge to throw in my $0.02, however, it's undeniable that I lack the credentials for a particularly educated opinion on the subject, so feel free to move along (I certainly would). Anyway, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea not to ask "Should Bayonetta be banned?", but rather "When...

    What is "standard gameplay"?

    This is actually much better formulated than what I meant to say in my first point... basically I think that there is no one correct approach but rather mutliple viable ones and in the end it comes down to what approach the creator of the ruleset wants to choose. Do you start with everything...

    What is "standard gameplay"?

    Not really the opposition, but I'm bored, so might as well give this a shot... I believe it comes down to what approach you're taking... if you look at the game as it is and remove broken things, then there is no such thing as a stage for "standard gameplay" because of the arguments...

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    While you didn't manage to get it legalized, you still got quite a few people to think about it and support your case, no? Also it's legal in the ISP rules, isn't it? That would be correct with this particular philophy. But imagine someone new to the scene is asking you why X stage is...

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    Didn't BPC make that thread about PS2, eventually resulting in it being legalized in a lot of regions where it was banned before? Couldn't something similar be done for other stages? As in, you analyze the stages and adress all arguments that could be brought up against it? For example, if...

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    No I'm not, just having some free time :p Now for the sake of the argument though... Now of course, if you assume Unity as standard, the burden of proof is most definately on the person that says RC should be banned. But when you turn this around, and use (for example) APEX as...

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    Naturally not, but most of the good characters don't "need" X stage legal to win either. What I'm getting at is mostly the following... Let's simplify this a bit and say MK goes somewhat even with a few characters in general, but absolutely destroys them on Brinstar and RC. As long as...

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    Would MK still have that userbase and amount of money won if RC and Brinstar had been banned 2(?) years ago, when their combination with MK was first seen as a problem? I know I said I was done, but =/

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    Now if we could only draw a proper line between a good and an overpowered character... Anyway, I think that's it from my side, thanks for your time.

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    I see. Would your answer be different if my example had used a good character instead of a mediocre one? What about a bad character in that situation?

    Official Stage Legality Discussion: Stage Specific

    Wouldn't a character being (close to) unbeatable on a stage be a legitimate ban criteria for that stage? I suppose this would fit better into the philosophical thread, but w/e... Let's assume a mediocre character, and a stage that has no general flaws (two stages if you're assuming a stage...

    Why our current CP/Ban System doesnt work / make any sense

    Well, how about splitting CPs into multiple sets? For example, you have to play 3 sets (Bo3), the first game of every set is a double blind, the other two games have only character CPs. Then, the first (or last) set has stage striking, whereas the other two have stage CPs. That way, you know...
