Wow, I didn't know I'd be attacked for stating my opinion. The problem with most of you is how you think you can be all big bad tough guy over the internet. I'd love to see how you'd speak to me in real life. But that's another story, anyway I care what I think and I believe that I'm right in the end. You can keep playing how you play like I said, but just don't think you are good when all you've learned was how to grab all willy nilly. Chill out and don't try to talk down to me when you suck.
I understand where you are coming from, but honestly, you should have expected some negative things coming at you after making a thread like this.

Fun isn't the purpose of this game for most people. It's use whatever cheap tactics you can to win.
Yeah, I agree that chaingrabbing with Dedede is cheap, but I'm not gonna complain because you can find ways round it.
Basically everyone here will use 'cheap' tactics to win. This probably isn't the place for you.

Basically, this is the wrong place for you.
I guess so. Is there any forum out there who doesn't have big bad internet bullies?

@ PCHU: Give it a rest lil' boy. You have no idea what you are talking about. How is a lion using what it was born with in any comparison to cheating in a video game? :confused: Maybe you should stick to letting other people say things for you. I am certain now that they will put it in a better perspective. :chuckle:

You have to realize that the game was created like this, we're just using what the game was created with. Your posts tend to be EXTREMELY ironic, it's not cheating, it's taking advantage of what the game is made like.

If you don't have a myspace or a livejournal and have never seen one of the best movies of all time, why can't you find time to stop being a scrub and get better at the game?

It's obvious that what you meant by being good at the game was being able to beat CPUs. Have you even played anyone on this forum yet?

No johns.

Learn to play a game before you try to insult it. You basically seem to be calling all of us cheap for using techniques and moves that we've all spent quite a bit of time practicing. I get the feeling you wouldn't be calling it cheap if you understood how the game/competitive scene worked.

And by the way, who told you the game wasn't intended to be played to the fullest extent that it can be played to. I think you're playing the game wrong if you don't get the most out of it you can. I believe that sakurai didn't want us to use anyone except mario, and you're not playing the game the way it was intended to be played if you use anyone else. (just kidding I'm not an idiot)

That's pretty much what you're saying! They spent years developing and balancing this game. If there are moves that you can use in a cheap way, chances are they knew about it, and don't care. So please don't come in here and tell us that we're playing the game wrong. And if you do, try to back it up with an argument that can't be summarized as "People beat me using moves that I didn't know how to use."

To everyone hating on me. and trying to explain to me about random bull **** and saying this isn't the place fore me. I advice you to read my first post over and over until it gets into your thick skulls that I KNOW people will play how they play. Seeing these cheap tactics was new to me as I stated before and I KNOW I need more practice with I guess most of your type before learning how to beat them. Were you an excellent crazy *** Brawler or cheater when you FIRST got the game or even first played someone new who handled you? I really doubt it. Enough is too much so allow me to try and be the bigger man on this now ridiculous thread when I say, quite attacking me and read that cheaters aren't good Brawler's! They exist, they will play the game, you might be one of them and rest assured that I WILL find a way to beat you in TIME. You guys are so tough and great at Brawl, I get it. With that said can we get back to the real point of my thread being how can you consider that way to be good at Brawl? I'm not saying don't be that way because that would be foolish to try and break through your tactics. I meant for this to be a discussion. Thanks for killing it and turning this into a huge argument with 1 against all.

There have been at least a handful of posts explaining basically why everything is the way it is, but you were to busy trying to be an Internet tough guy to get the ideas through your thick skull.

Just calm yourself down a bit, learn to ignore the "haters", and perhaps do some research before you post.

Look a little deeper in my comparison.
May seem flawed to you, but...
Whatever.
If he's not getting it, I'm out.
Nothing else really needs to be said, anyway.

What I meant was that the lion had fangs- teeth that go through you body, rather than the person calling it cheap, the one with no fangs (fangs representing chaining and various other 'locks), thinking that the lion sucks because it's not playing 'fair' or 'by the rules'.

But yeah.
I'll sit back and back and watch.

Sorry, but...why did you post this then. Did you expect all of us to say "yes, you're right. We all cheat, and we don't have any real abilities. We just win because we're cheap." You come in here and tell all of us that we play the game wrong, and insult all of us. What did you expect to happen.

*sigh*

I'm finding the whole point of this thread so useless now. Here I was foolish enough to think I could ask simply how you can consider spamming moves good fun play or even do it in tournaments without getting so bored and I get people thinking I hate the game or hate the people who play and yatta yatta yatta. Obviously mostly none of you fools have read my posts thoroughly enough to see where I am coming from and I guess I'll just have to deal with that. As a closing statement I have played people on here quite a few times, have handled and gotten handled but have never given up. Never ever did I insult the greatness that is my absolutely favorite game, Brawl in any way shape or form but i guess have insulted the mindless people who see that I don't think they are good for repeating their "practiced" moves and get all crazy with me for that. I'm sorry I won't disgrace myself and use your methods with those and indeed cheap tactics as I know these forums explain exactly how to do them. I've always been really into all of the Super Smash Bros. games but have refused to make my character look like some drone doing the same thing over and over again. It looks ugly to me and doesn't sit right in my opinion. If I do recall right, the creator even tried to get rid of a lot of the glitches so the game could be fun for everyone but of course you poke enough to find a way to just bring that all back. Whatever, you people = **** that saw that I don't think you are good for doing that and tried to get on my back about it. At least I know how people are who play Smash Bros. A bunch of little *****es who will gang up on anyone who disses the way they will play instead of just trying to see where I am coming from. Have a great day everyone, I'll smash on you soon enough.

Everyone, If I could have your attention, I would like to tell a story about a little boy named B-jamin, but lets just call him BJ.
BJ threw his controller into the TV.
"CHEATER! HE'S JUST A NO GOOD CHEATER!" BJ Shouted.
He decided it was time for one last round against the mean, evil cheater. Within seconds, the opposing Marth charged his defenseless Ike, slashing him with tipped F-air after tipped F-air, and then a Tipped Down air off the ledge. BJ lost his first stock.
"IM TIRED OF THIS CHEATER! I'M GOING TO FIND OUT A WAY TO DESTROY EVERY CHEATER ON EARTH!" BJ screamed.
He threw his Custom-Built Wii controller at the TV, but it missed and it hit the Wii, breaking it, and his brawl disk. Not even Ike, his big, strong warrior Ike could destroy the cheater war machine.
BJ started crying softly, he facepalmed and ran out of million dollar theater.
BJ's boyfriend crossed him in the hallway. "Hey...hey now BJ, it's no big deal, you're still the biggest, toughest man I know!" He said.
"ITS NOT GOOD ENOUGH!" BJ Yelled.
"I can play Brawl with you. We can both be Ike. Because he's big and strong, we can take the cheater down together! As teammates!"
"No thanks. BJ replied. I think I know what must be done."
After a quick kiss with his boyfriend, BJ was off.
BJ Speedwalked into his computer room.
"Computer on." BJ Said, he was so rich that he had a custom voice-activated computer.
BJ slammed his keyboard.
"No time for paragraphs," BJ stated to himself "I'm in the zone."
When it was all done, BJ pounded his spacebar, to get out the last of his frustration.
BJ knew this would destroy the evil cheaters once and for all.
He took a sigh of relief, and sat back in his chair, content.
He had completed his mission.
I'M BIG AND STRONG BECAUSE I FLAME PPL ON THE INTERNET!

Look, this place is for fun and to learn more about brawl. I declare neutrality with all of you except Chibi-Pika. I am on his side because the internet can be a bad place and we shouldn't let this site become that...

To B-jamin
Oh, THAT was your point.

I think it's a lot of fun to play against a chaingrabbing player.
I know that they are not letting up, and it actually improves my game.
I don't let up either, and I punish gimpers severely.

But wow....
I've had larger walls of text, and they were more organized than yours.
And what's up with clogging your posts with stars?
Foul language doesn't make speech more effective, it just makes you look like a raging idiot.
And I never said you are one.

Why does it matter how they play the game, one person enjoys something you may find stupid or cheap. This isn't against anyone either, a good chunk of the people on this forum play competitively and will do what it takes to win.

Seriously, go to a tourneyment and spam the same three moves and chances are you're gonna lose. So basically...some people do things their way, if you don't like that they spam or think it's cheap, just don't play those people. It's a game, just have fun.



TL;DR Version: People play differently/thread.

BJ, you keep trying to make peace but whenever you try, you just insult us again. If you wish to end our evil, evil cheating ways, CHEAT. If you get CGed, CG them back. If someone Infinates you, smack them in the face. Be a man, use your hand.

I laughed really hard at this. That's an amusing tale and I am being honest when I say that. I am done trying to make my opinion be heard. I just wanted to post this because I honestly cracked the **** up. Good job mate. Now in an effort to not make me completely hated on this thread is there a way I could erase this bogus thread? I wouldn't mind keeping it on, especially because this **** was pretty funny, but I really don't think people are getting why I posted this thread and I am honestly in fear that no one will want to play with me thinking that I can't take defeat when I have so many times. Friends everyone? Please?

Wow, I've LAWL'd so much today.
This is really unlike me, this thread MUST be different from all the other flame threads.
I guess that picture was just the dumbest nice comment I've ever seen.

And again, why use ANY foul language?
It just makes me wonder what's going through your head....
Or anyone who uses those words.

I know this IS the real world of internet, but crap, all I ever see is extremely high or low post-count people (no, I am not saying all are like this, just some that I've seen, and won't point out) putting quadruple stars here and there, and sometimes every few words...

Wut about filling time before the homerun derby?
Gross, 6 by both so far... but one nearly made it out, it'd be pretty awesome if someone did hit it out of the stadium.
(For those who don't know anything about baseball, no one has hit a ball out of Yankee Stadium)

I predict you to be hated across the SB Forums for all eternity. I suggest changing your name to something more suiting, like BJ Man.

Hey wait.
TheSunDanceKid....
You can't be neutral...
That means riding the fence, and at the rate technology is advancing, you won't be happy for long, because soon enough that 200 MPH wall of scrolling spiked fencing is going to bore into your body, causing extreme pain and agony.
Pick a side, it saves us the cleaning of your blood later on.

TyfighterLAND. Location#2: Illinois? Yeah.
I am quite a good player in Brawl and usually Smash on normally anyone sent my way.
Tournament experiance?
It wasn't until recently where I began to look at other people's "skills" on videos, online, and even in tournaments. I doubt that me bringing this subject up will change anyone's playing but I am hoping you will open your eyes and realize that the glitching, repeating of the same moves over and over, and the jerk it grabs that are repeated also for a quick cheap win isn't the way Brawl was meant to be played.
The bolded text is the only part that I can wholeheartly agree with you.
Glitching? Unless your opponent is using a USB Geeko or other hacking device that I'm forgetting or not aware of yet, these are just techniques used to the best of Brawl's metagame (the small amount Brawl has). As said numberous flammed threads, no moves are cheap except specific infinates that require no skill, such as Marth's chokegrab against Ness and Lucas.
Honestly, I don't understand how you can even have fun playing this game when all you have in your move set is three cheap attacks. Each character has so many different moves and techniques and most of the people that are considered good just dumb it down. I've heard that people like Melee over Brawl simply because there aren't as many of these dumb *** moves in Brawl but that is exactly the reason I love it. The game is hardly competitive when these glitches are brought in which also makes me sad that anyone could even be considered good just because they can do King Dedede's down grab across the whole level only to finish off with a side hammer. This is just one of the many examples I'm sure you know what I mean.
The reason Smashers (not all of them) prefer Melee is the fast pased, punishable metagame that it offered. Combo's existed in Melee. In Brawl, it has reached a point where spamming is 'super effective', chain-grabbing is one of the most advanced technique (slightly groans), and the removal of useful techs/addition of useless add-ons (give me a T, R, I, P, P, I, N, G). DI is still in Brawl, so there are plenty of ways to get out of DDD's chaingrab, only a few characters are infinates.
I know people like to do whatever it takes to win but come on, don't you get a little bored? In the end it is just a game so how about we start using all the aspects of it and not just little glitches? Wouldn't this bull **** be exactly like Street Fighter II and how you can just keep the other guy in the corner and do your ducking kick to keep them there and easily win? How is that even competitive let alone fun?
Exactly why we need to bring back Melee, because Brawl is no fun. Play to win hasn't died and will not die when money is on the line.
I know most of you are most likely going to tell me don't play competitive if I have a problem with the way you play and for the most part, I probably won't thanks to a lot of you, but just don't think you are good when you basically cheated your way to the top. Thanks for reading. :cool:
I suggest using the correct termanology before Yuna gets a piece of you. =]
It's your way to play and I don't want to start a flame war, but the war is already upon us.
