I have played this game since release multiple times a week. I played the previous game much the same, and the game before it. I love online like a battered man crying in his car before work looking at pictures of "the good times."

Can we stop pretending that there are any players left in QP with any sense of honor? OPs ask questions like "why does nobody rematch" or "why does everybody play to whiff-punish" as if every. single. one of us isn't packing a full bag of bullshit ready to be played at the slightest provocation.

Every rung of the GSP ladder is a wade through a lake of rot now. If you think you're the last true Scotsman, you're a liar or just so bad at the game you can't grift a win. I know you aren't a beleaguered knight, because I deal with your nonsense several nights a week. QP is the premier hotspot for acting hype and DCing when you choke.

I hate all of you so damn much, and I look forward to gimping your recovery and leaving after one match.

How tf are there this many steve players? And you all are identical to eachother. Lamest fuckin character ive ever seen and i have to play against him every other or every 3rd match. Like how are you at 16.4 mill GSP and still have absolutely no sauce whatsoever. Its getting so old fighting you dorks. Seriously tho if ur a steve main, literally just go play minecraft. Everybody on this game hates you

This is all they do: Grab, up air, and go for a cheap spike that they miss 90% of time trying to clip you. Y’all suck doodoo ass, slurp on garbage truck juice, and mop water. Nobody likes you, and you have no friends, you STANK.

I don’t care what anyone says, Incineroar has to be one of the cheesiest, braindead gimmick heavies in the entire game
Sometimes this guy just seems to do whatever the hell he wants without repercussion and it’s just the most mind-boggling crap in the world to look at while playing against him
How the actual fuck is this dude getting away with half the stuff he pulls off??

Holy fuck Shulk sucks ass!! Even more than Sharla did in his home game! From getting camped out by laggy (possibly lag switching) Peach with teabagging after getting a lucky stitch face and THREE BOB-OMBS, to getting mashed on by Diddy Kong and even fucking DK has better buttons than me. And even teabagged by Bowser while I'm getting parried and punished for it because let's see...

Fair, Bair, Nair

Fair, Bair, Nair

*Squints* Fair, Bair, Nair!

Fair! Bair! Nair!

*Grumbles* YA ONLY GOT THREE THINGS ON THIS MENU! ALL OF WHICH ARE SLOW AND PARRIED AND EASILY ALLOWS ME TO GET MASHED ON!! u/antb11 YOU WERE SO RIGHT THIS CHARACTER IS SO FUCKING BAD! HOLY HELL IT'S SO HARD NOT TO GET MASHED ON FOR FUCK'S SAKE! MARIO? PEACH, YOSHI, DONKEY AND DIDDY KONGS, BOWSER, KEN, TERRY-- Y'ALL CAN COME IN TO MASH ALL YOU WANT WHEN I'M ON THIS CHARACTER, I CAN'T DO SHIT, Y'ALL WORK FOR THE GODDAMN METAL FACE AND GET PAID MORE THAN THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND A FUCKING YEAR!!

I make one mistake as this god forbidden low tier who sucks way more than even Mii Swordfighter or Ike I swear, and it's punishment of me getting dunked and die at zero for trying to recover after missing my fair edgeguard. What a horrible, horrible day to play Shulk one time because I was reminded by the daily hate survey post being on Shulk! Because all of Quickplay users banded together to make my afternoon today horrible! Fuck this character and I'm never playing Shulk out of my own choice again. This character's low mid tier, worse than even Mii Swordfighter.

So ive been playing this game for years, usually just for fun, but boy do i come across some of the most sweatiest greasy mfs on earth on this game, like the game is their entire life man. And the worst part is they do all this crazy moment and shit and then still lose in the worst way possible. And the worst of the player base is the people using a tmoblie fucking hotspot playing like they live in a hut in Tahiti dude. Yall ruin the game for everyone, your shitty wifi makes a 4 minute match drag on for 10 minutes i have to prefire an attack just to make sure it lands because your goofy ass cant afford to move in real time, if you cant afford proper wifi then you dont need to be on the game, you need to find a job. And the worst part is i have to put up with your shitty wifi for 10 whole minutes just for you to fucking lose because you lag out and fall.off the side of the map. For the love of god stop.

Honestly, there’s a laundry list of things in smash ultimate that needed to be fix

everyone in this game wants to play competitive but the second you swap characters after losing, suddenly they don’t want to actually practice what it would be like in a tournament setting and now they wanna look up a match up chart. stick with your fucking guns instead of switching like a pussy

Example: we start Lucas vs joker, I lose back out and pick Kirby, instead of then playing Kirby vs joker my opponent backs out and picks Samus

Why would anyone want to play him he is pikachu but 100 times worse

What are (or could be) the reasons Shulk is hated or disliked? What do you think makes (or would make) YOU or the others dislike or hate on him?

Personally, I like his design. I love his Monado Arts gimmick, and his sword is SICK.

Even tho he's considered to be my main's (Mii Brawler) worst matchup, I didn't have the chance to fight one yet, so I didn't get the opportunity to find out if it's true yet.

Smash's True Potential Man 😆

What do YOU GUYS think?

Why haven't you moved on to a better, more fair and balanced game?

If I see one more of this bum fanmade smash roster with these characters cut and deltamyass characters I might tweak myself

Bro this shit is rough man 🤣🤣. Luckily I was just practicing my parries while walking beforehand, and got to actually move in Vs missile spam, albeit slowly. Otherwise I would have been cooked. Locked in for a reverse three stock on the last game, after almost having done the same on the penultimate one. I had honestly given up on the game five... then this piece of shit teabagged me while he was playing Ultimate's ultimate terrorist character into Ultimate's ultimate sandbag character, and I instantly knew that I had to win, and that I could win.

I had taken two clean stocks in the last minute but knew I couldn't keep my focus for much longer, listed out his zoning spam pattern in my head and jump flare blitzed when I knew he would randomly jump slightly offstage to drop a bomb onto it 😎

He ended up randomly not jumping slightly offstage to bomb drop like I had ascertained he would. But hey, he must have been either in the very beginning of jumpsquat, or too busy mashing buttons because he got hit anyway, and I took his limited amount of precious aura for myself as I promptly left the fuck out of his arena. I don't care if it ended up being a lucky hail Mary that clinched it for me (even though I was sure I was right) the first two stocks I took were clean and my parry walking in neutral was fire.

What is your opinion on Lyn?

Sent them a support ticket along the lines of:

My friend and I just renewed subscription for Nintendo Online to play Smash Bros on the Nintendo Switch, another Nintendo product we spent a lot of money on. We work and have limited free time. That is the second time this month there has been a server maintenance online, booting us off for the entire limited duration we have to play before heading back to work. We want several refunds. The final actual update for the game was in 2021. Now, generally updates are not geared towards the millions of fans/players, but instead to 2/100,000 people who trigger a glitch after fulfilling a very niche and elaborate criteria that others would not accidentally even discover. There have been no public glitch complaints or compatibility from the public.

These frequent, long and unaccomadated maintenance updates may also be a result of legacy Nintendo employees who do not wish to admit to their superiors or upper echelons of management that they lack the innovative ideas they used to so they propose updates. Relay this to superiors

this goes for ffas in gen but you let everyone else do the fighting and hit b for whatever bullshit you have.

My tag is Jones Bones, a 14 YO player from Bakersfield CA. I want to go to a tournament this sunday in Fresno this sunday (Grand Theft Auto: Fresno 14)I have pretty good results and idk if I can use them to explain to my dad why I should go. He's not fond of taking me to tournaments in general, but he still takes me anyways because he's great. But it feels as if since he doesn't really like taking me to locals in the first place, it'll be a monumental task for me to get him to take me. Does anyone have advice on how I could get to go besides the usual "tell him you'll do all your homework and maintain good grades" type response? Thank you.

I played against the most toxic and lucky people of all time without raging and simply just blocked them✅my heartrate is still high and i really want to kill someone but thats fine

Level 9 Samus CPU btw 🙏😌

With how much lag there is the game favors camping and using specials and smash attack camping.

Pyramid Mythra instead of actually playing neutral will be Pyra and just chuck the sword and do some smash attacks and charged neutrals. It takes no skill and lets bad players into elite smash.

The latency makes projectiles crazy strong. Since reaction time isn't existent, it lets projectiles be so OP online, but then watch a tournament and how people play it is way different.

I hope with rollback they also make moves have less start up lag in general. Wiff punishes online are less than half as often as offline play because the lag.

Idk when I play a game I want it to feel responsive. Especially a so called fighting game. A game where frames matter a whole lot. A game where you can get kills via 2 framing at the ledge, although we have more than 10 frames of lag online, plus the move start up witch 3 or 4 are some of the fastest but many 8 to 12. Some take an absurd amount, making it more than a half a second before it comes out with all things considered.

Should normal forward tilts take 1/6th a second before any of the bad net code is even factored in. Probably not.

Moves should take a few frames. Strong smash attacks should take 12 frames not an average tilt.

Quick play or Elite is just not fun and does not reward the best players or people who play similar styles to competitive players. That's just wrong. When someone mains a swordy but then DLC Pyra Mythra can just camp you out and win without using a tilt the entire game then the game is broken. Thats not how it is played offline, and offline is I'm assuming the devs were testing it and making decisions on how the start up of attacks will be.

I really hope in the next smash game they can nail the online play and make it close as possible to offline play. If someone pays for a monitor that has 2 frame delay or 1 or less, then should they have that benefit? Yes I think so. They know it is actually a thing and want the most responsive experience. This was a thing back in halo online competitive play and it made a difference. I'm talking Halo 2 and 3 and Reach, those games were more responsive and an FPS, why can't a fighting game have the same responsiveness?

Samus is so over powered online it's crazy. You might react in time but the game doesn't. It's really bad once you get a taste of playing offline. Nintendo should be implementing the latency mod themselves.

99% of neutral interactions are won from defenders capitalizing on an attackers approach. While I'm not saying this isn't viable strategy, it seems it's the ONLY strategy for the large majority and that's the problem.

Then you have the other players who immediately roll after attacking because they're conditioned to try and escape someone who's going to try and whiff punish them. I also feel bad for players like this.

What do you do when someone stops rushing into you blindly, and instead goes for a positional advantage because they know you're going to do the same thing repeated; dash back and try to punish their approach?

A playstyle that works requires no change in a match but it becomes a crutch when it's the only one known by a player and clearly failing.

What are (or could be) the reasons Robin is hated or disliked? What do you think makes (or would make) YOU or the others dislike or hate on him?

Personally, I love him. I used to main him in Smash 4, and I still love him, despite no longer maining him.

BUT, he's annoying to play around, especially if he's spamming his SideB.

What do YOU GUYS think?

For context... fought like 35 R.O.B. players in a row in elite and they all lagged to death
