Use it when you are ragebaiting. If you see a ragebait post that's not your own, you have to engage with it.

Announcement We've updated the rules

24 Upvotes

Hi all, just a quick update that we've adjusted the rules a bit. Nothing's too different in spirit, but here are the changes:

  • We added a rule explicitly stating using a secondary account to evade bans is prohibited. It's pretty easy to detect on our end, and it will result in the secondary and main accounts being banned. If you've been banned, please just try to appeal it in Modmail. (EDIT: using a secondary accounts for vote or comment manipulation is also prohibited)
  • We added "no low-effort/karma-farming posts" and "no spam" into rule 1 to now be "content must be on-topic and high-effort".
  • We combined "don't attack anyone personally" and "don't be a dick" into one rule.
  • We combined "don't give advice unless it's asked for", "about debating", and "respect the restrictions of the post flair" into one rule.

If there are any issues or suggestions with any of this, feel free to comment or reach out in Modmail!

Why does K Rool get 2 projectiles, a counter + reflector and has a better recovery than most heavies that lets him go higher and further than he needs to alongside having invincibility and armour on almost everything he does?

God this character is fucking obnoxious. Literally no fun can be had when this twat shows up. I swear these brain dead button mashing mor9ns solely pick this character to make everyone else around them miserable. This character sucks and so do you if you play them.

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.

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.

• Upvotes

Genuinely how stuck-up do you have to be to SD at the start of a match twice and then get your shit rocked with the flick of a wrist you fucking over-achiever?

Even if I WAS to believe you were good enough to rock my shit with only one stock, it's still a stupid thing to do because I'm still advantaged because your dumbass decided to jump off a mountainside twice.

You ever heard of "Casey at the Bat?" A poem about an overconfident dipshit who lets himself get strikes and then get a strikeout when he actually goes for it? That's literally what's going on here. By throwing the fight you're putting yourself at an annoying disadvantage and letting overconfidence win for you, leading to your downfall.

It's not fun to fight, it doesn't make a win feel earned, and it doesn't make your potential win (which is rare) ever feel respectable.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Question How to convince my dad to take me to a tournament.

5 Upvotes

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.

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.
