Leffen's Mewtwo, Hungrybox's Ness, Mango's Mario, and Armada's G&W. Who has the best low tier back pocket character?

Not much more than the title. I love seeing them fight with these characters.

SUP WITH IT!

For our big return you know we had to find an extra special guest to kick things off: Captain Jack! If you know anything about old school Melee then you already know who he is, but for those out of the loop Captain Jack used to be one of the best in the world! Well now the legend is coming back to seriously compete once again and he has his eyes set on the top. By bootcamping in America, he intends on learning about everything that he missed and putting all these newschool players in their place. We talk to him about his mentality and his goals while looking at what the community was like back in his day and currently. We also get a taste of just how good he still is by watching him face-off against Nintendude! We're super excited to see how he does in the future!

We also learn more about the man himself, such as his days as a sick Mahjong player. Captain Jack isn't really into much anime, but even he knows about the legendary Akagi (which you should totally watch btw). We also get to see the unveiling of Scar's new MyAnimeList and discuss his official anime tier list and what he should watch next. Bobby also shares his insight about The History of Scar (by Slush_SSBM) and his new all-time ranking of 69! This episode is the essence of the show: Melee community history, gameplay, and all kinds of anime discussion!

As always, thank you for watching and showing us your support! Fingers crossed that there won't be another three month break LOL we hope to bring you the next show in two weeks! Make sure to follow https://twitter.com/ScarTophShow to stay up to date about everything you need to know for both the S&T Show and The Reads! We'd love to hear what you've got to say, so let us know here or tweet at us!

See you soon!

Shot in the dark, but is there a Smash scene (Melee, specifically) in Lancaster, PA?i

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 09:11 PM PST

I'm in Lancaster for job training and I was wondering if there was a smashfest or tourney I could hit up while I'm here. I tried to join the Smash Town PA Facebook page, and am still awaiting approval. I just wanna play a little Melee in my limited free time here.

What makes a character hype

Posted: 27 Feb 2018 09:45 PM PST

What aspects of a character contribute to thier hype factor? Why is the common consensus that captain falcon and falco are super cool whereas fox and puff are super lame? Do the people who play the characters cause them to be considered cool or is it the characters themselves?

I personally think this is an interesting question b/c I've never really seen the hype behind captain falcon or falco all that much, and while I can see how one could say fox and puff (especially puff) are boring, I find it very interesting that these characters share some clear and important similarities.

A comparison that I think jumps right out is puffs rest to CFs knee. If anything, rest should be much more hype to hit as it is far more risky to use, and carries even more damage and knockback. I've heard Captain falcons knee been called the "knee of justice" on streams before, why is the rest not called the "rest of the gods" or something that would imply it being super cool, as it is very similar in effect and much more dangerous.

Fox and falco visually carry almost entirely similar movesets in terms of appearance, their character design is very similar as a whole. Some differences that are obvious are falcos shittier recovery (id personally say it's still pretty good due to the number of different options that he has out of it), their different lasers (falco's are really annoying and fox's are pretty annoying but not as bad) their dair (each works well with it's own character) and their shines( I know there are a bunch more things like how they're slightly different weights, fox is faster, and some of their frame data/knockback values are different, but this is what is super obvious from the perspective of a viewer) Shines seem to be what must be the deciding factor in why falco is more hype than fox, as all other aspects are pretty similar. Shines however both serve many of the same purposes (oos options, combo starter, stock ending tool, shine stalling, allows directional changes in mid air)

With these "hype" characters having such clear similarities in their moves or even their entire move sets to "lame" characters, why do we consider some to be so much more fun and cool than others?

Super Smash Bros - Official r/smashbros Voted Tier List (January-February 2018): Voting, now with a poll that's easier to fill out!


Official r/smashbros Voted Tier List (January-February 2018): Voting, now with a poll that's easier to fill out!

Posted: 25 Feb 2018 09:15 PM PST

Hey guys! Just wanted to talk about a couple of changes that have been made to both the tier list poll and thread before we get into the voting.

First of all, the Google Form used to submit votes has been cleaned up a bit. Before, you had to click on a dragdown menu under each character's name and click on a list of tiers to place a character in a certain tier; now, the poll takes a bit more of a grid format, which makes it much more compact and efficient to navigate.

Next, you may notice that there's a comment stickied below. This comment is a discussion question, which aims to generate discussion around a certain aspect of Smash 4's meta. Of course, responding to this discussion question is completely optional; however, participating in the discussion it generates on each new voting thread may not be a bad idea if you're looking to learn a thing or two.

With the addition of discussion questions on each new tier list voting thread, there will no longer be any "funsie questions" asked at the end of each bimonthly poll. This is because the discussion question basically does everything that the "funsie question" did, but actually allows for talk about the topic; therefore, there's not much of a reason to keep the "funsie question" around. However, with the "funsie question" going away, something else has taken its place at the end of the poll. I won't spoil it for you, but I think you'll enjoy it :)

With all of that out of the way, I guess it's time. First tier list of 2018, here we come!


How to Vote

There are a total of 5 general tiers; S Tier, A Tier (divided into A+, A, and A- tier), B Tier (divided into B+, B, and B- tier), C Tier (divided into C+, C, and C- tier), and D Tier. Based on the description of each tier in the poll, you will vote where you think each character belongs, with S Tiers being the best and D Tiers being the worst. Using my magical, mythical, and totally ballin' powers (aka basic math), I will transmogrify all of the polls together to come up with the month's tier list!

NOTABLE TOURNAMENT PLACINGS

Usually, I'd link the methodology that I use here; however, that methodology was flawed in quite a few ways, and doesn't quite work out with the new PGR TTS. The methodology is currently getting an overhaul, so for now, you'll have to deal with me handpicking results from PGRv5 tournaments. If any character doesn't have a result, they failed to place Top 64 at any PGRv5-eligible tournament.

In the comments below, you can look for a certain character's name.

DO NOT USE UPVOTES TO VOTE CHARACTERS UP OR DOWN ON THE LIST!

These act as discussion prompts, allowing people to talk about said characters. They can be used to talk about how good characters are in the meta, how these characters are played, how to play against these characters, and really anything else, as long as it's about the character listed and how they play in Smash 4. Try to keep conversation constructive! No opinions are wrong!

There will also be a section to post your personal tier list, if you'd like to show off your arbitrary tiers, as opposed to using the ones given to you share your own views on the meta!

Full Bloom 4 Announcement - Ryu Round Robin

Posted: 26 Feb 2018 02:34 PM PST

Quick Background: Full Bloom 4 recently announced that the venue will be open 24 hours. That opened up the opportunity for some fun side events after the main bracket and the Indiana University-Purdue University crew battle wrap up. Currently, there will be Werewolf played in addition to the crew battle. BUT, before that happens, there will be a....

Ryu Round Robin! Full Bloom 4 is hosting the two best North American Ryu players, Locus and Darkshad. A Bloomington native and midlevel Ryu, XzibitA (hi guys), issued a challenge to both players to play a First-To-Five, Winner-Take-All Round Robin. Both Locus and Darkshad accepted. Each player is putting in $100 for a total of $300 prize for the winner.
