Yeah, I'm in agreement with ahadabans here. CML, you don't have to agree, but if you're going to disagree try to do so reasonably and respectfully.

I do need a Gamecube, maybe, but I have 4 controllers already. I've just been playing Melee on my computer.

It's okay, we can stick to Smash 4 when you're here.

This is why you need stuff like Voice of Resurgence, Blade Splicer and Kitchen Finks to pod into. Birthing Pod, upon casting, is a tempo and card loss, so you need stuff that can make up for the lost value. It's also not a great line to play Pod on T2 with 3 mana, usually better to develop...

Fox theoretically has the strongest tools available to him. At "perfect" levels of play, Fox is the theoretical best. What makes Fox interesting is that he's a bit of a... semi-glass cannon. He's at a weight where other characters can combo the mess out of him, but he also has strong...

Well, the Top 4 at Evo played 7 different characters, so I guess the diversity is okay. The problem with Fox is that most players are actually worse by playing him. I just can't root for Armada. The other Smashers feel so much more charismatic.

Isn't that what we have the Fight Club thread for? :)

I'd consider Shriekmaw to be more of a Doom Blade. Well, when I ran two of them, I classified one as a 2-drop and one as a 5-drop, but I'd most likely "file" it under the 2-mana spell category.

If you don't get out of it it just keeps going, basically til death-ish.

Both players agree not to chain-grab (grab the opponent, throw them, grab them again) each other. It's a much more skill-testing and entertaining matchup without it being nonstop chaingrabs.

Yeah, I saw the Ken v Westballz set on YouTube. It's like 3:30 of actual gameplay across two games, and Westballz looked uncharacteristically sloppy. Ken, to his credit, played a pretty tight set, punished well and set up several really nice Ken combos.

It's awful. I have a friend who wants to always use it. Whenever he drafts against me I let him just put it into his deck for free (it's not in the cube), and when he plays against me I let him put it in his opening hand every time, and it still seems awful.

Here is a conversation I had with Tafo on the topic: His response: Here's the Westballz set: https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/3da5ny/a_silly_set_tempo_westballz_vs_shinobi_at_wtfox/

I am most satisfied with a loss when I walk away thinking "I wish I had done this differently".

Armada's recent character switch is "bad for the game". People, even people who don't play Melee competitively, know that Fox is the best player, and when you have WF Fox Ditto Mango - Leffen, LF Fox Ditto Mango - Armada, GF Fox Ditto Armada - Leffen I think it's bad for that appeal of the game...

I think you guys are kind of misunderstanding this guy. I've emailed him several times. He's very like... he goes to the beat of his own drum. The B and C cubes aren't actual cubes like you guys think about it, but just piles of cards that people can use for deckbuilding. Think the "utility...

Reject rares might not have a legendary in them.

You gotta let the Melee flow through you.

I feel like we're all going to be quoted and made fun of on some EDH-dedicated forum.

Mmm, let's make more unfounded statements about EDH.
