Welcome the GOAT! Smash.gg link for FPS2. This means FPS2 now has four of the five active gods (alongside Wizzrobe, S2J, aMSa, Android, and more yet to confirm), making it a decently sized major in the middle of March. submitted by /u/johnr754 [link] [comments]

List of Non-Gods to beat the Top 6 Version 3.0 Posted: 21 Feb 2017 11:23 AM PST Just to keep this fresh in everyone's minds, I've updated the list again to include Genesis 4 results, and to discuss how Armada is just so amazing at this children's party game. Keep in mind, I've included Leffen as a "God" gasp, so that's why the Samus players are here. Enjoy!

Why you should pick Battlefield as Lucas Posted: 21 Feb 2017 12:52 PM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yM47z0EuKQ And it even takes care of his worst match up. Best stage choice for him, kappa. If you too like casual combos, I recommend going to basically the best casual discord server ever. There is a huge montage in the makings and you have until the 26th to submit your casual content to it, so hop on in if you want to do that too! https://discord.gg/QgSE5WV (And please don't hate me lol) submitted by /u/PKBeats [link] [comments]

So… What happened to Miiverse? Posted: 21 Feb 2017 04:39 PM PST Ever since the "recommended" ruleset came out, Miiverse has been absent from stage lists as an alt for Battlefield. I haven't seen a single person mention a reason for its absence. I like to counterpick there occasionally because I like the minimalistic art style. Is there any justification for banning it whatsoever? If FD can have 3 alts, why can't BF have 2? submitted by /u/progfox653 [link] [comments]

Why should I get Project M? Posted: 21 Feb 2017 08:57 PM PST Me and my friend group have just started to get into play SSBB. We've been having a lot of fun, and I just found out about Project M, and I'm wondering if getting it would be a fun way to change it up? We aren't very competitive (besides to eachother), but really like playing. submitted by /u/canslER [link] [comments]
