Smash is a fighting game just the same as Killer Instinct and KoF and should be at Evo!

Is this board worse than reddit?

Provide proof why it isn't and why it shouldn't be.

It's a cutesy stupid floaty kids game where you fly around and try to slap the shit out of each other with basic movements that take no skill. It's insulting to put it alongside games with incredibly hard combo systems, tootsies and brutally high skill ceilings.

footsies*

beat you to it, tough luck pal

1 Melee EVO makes as much monay as 5 KOF EVOs. That is why it is there.

yew fide each ober so is fighting game

The common dialect that comes from this meme is now, 100% unironically, pretending to be retarded.

This board is so far gone it's unreal.

Let's end this thread a little early

What's on EVO is what people is playing competitively and ressembles fighting games.

If for example, that GR15 violating fighting game gets a big following, it will be on EVO.

if it takes no skill then enter tournaments and win the $1,000+ prize pots

...

>it's popular
>few can play at the high end level
>it's fun to watch
>it is a game where you fight other people with mostly martial moves
what other checks does it need to hit?

EVO is Animelee now, deal w/ it

>wikipedia says its a fighting game

You're right, I guess this thread's a wrap.

how autistic do you have to be to make this whole image?

I agree with your sarcasm but stop the fucking brainlet wojak posting you stupid underage

Autistic enough to defend smash as a fighting game.

I don't know, "Steve", how autistic do you have to be to be a fucking namefag?

nono no no nonNNO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I could also do a bunch of other stupid shit that doesn't take skill like get a WR in a final fantasy or pokemon speedrun. I value my time though.

>omg if you think pewdipie doesn't have any talent why don't you become a millionaire like him xD

>smash
>high level

What does this shit even mean. And yes, i've seen 'high level' matches. It's no different to the smelly basement of my friends back in fucking grade school.

>"I value my time" says the idiot arguing on Sup Forums

Fact: smash is played by autistic retards that nobody likes.

>Smash is a fighting game

there was a game I saw people play called Quiz Time and at one part it had people pick out Fighting Games.

Smash Brother AND Brawl were classified as fighting games:

>you have to value every second of every day for your argument to be valid! no relaxation shitposting time allowed! xD

I'm not watching this in case they choose smash. I already have 0 faith in us as a race and don't want to hit the negatives.

Lmao you are retarded mhj

No one in this thread has yet to objectively explain why smash shouldn't be at evo

Yeah, platform fighters like smash are much more fun and competitively interesting than arcade fighters

Not a smash player, but Smash is a fighting game.

The players in it are also the most autistic. Some faggot spectating a local tournie at college got angry at me for spamming a move. It's not my fault the game is poorly balanced.

Stop trolling.

You damn well know that the Smash "scene" only exists because the community continues to limit its options on how to play the GAYme. Competitive smash is not fun to watch and is really not fun to play.

>"I value my time, just not this time" says the idiot typing on Sup Forums

>I'm not watching this in case they choose smash

one guy picked smash and it was correct. Video is the timestamp of the question

It is boring to watch.

Because you are subhumans with neurodevelopmental disabilities.

YOU ARE THE LITERAL SCUM OF THE EARTG PATHETIC FAT FUCKWHO PLAYS KIDS GAMES

It's a fighting game but it's not a adult one. It's very entry-level and a great way for kids to get involved in fighting games.

>Evo should get rid of their most popular game and tell half their viewer base to fuck off!
HURRRRRR
HURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

>don't clean up the shit, the flies will leave

lmao

>mhj

is this from reddit

I'm not the one sperging out and calling anons on a taiwanese playing card board the scum of the earth

>DURR MUNY BAD
Did you forget that EVO is a business, or are you just pretending to be retarded?

Stay mad, kids

>"YOU ARE THE LITERAL SCUM OF THE EARTG PATHETIC FAT FUCKWHO PLAYS KIDS GAMES" says the weebchan shitposter arguing about which videogame esports cancer he likes to watch

>smash isnt a fighting game because it doesnt fit my extremely specific autistic criteria for a fighting game

fuck off m8

>its another OP arbitrarily shits on something he doesn't like

Businesses have reputations, Subway fired Jared Fogle for that reason. Keep digging freakshow.

>extremely specific autistic criteria

it's actually not that at all

just don't be a basic entry level kids game that most kids first played at age 11 and hit the skill ceiling in the same year

B-BUT THIS KERMIT POST!! LOOK AT THIS EPIC KERMIT POST THAT PROVES SMASH IS NOT A FIGHTIN GAMW

>CATS ARE FISH THIS CRITERIA IS ARBITRARY LMAO

Subway's stock fucking TANKED because of the Jared fiasco. Keep comparing apples to oranges, dipshit. Melee is making EVO money hand over fucking fist.

Wojaks and Pepe should be mass banned they contribute to 90% of the shitposting. I love how the quality of the board went up when images were down that one day.

Only you are mad because nobody will validate your belief that it is entertaining to watch and play which is YOUR opinion. You are welcome to think that and hold your opinion. I'm also welcome to think you have your head shoved so far up your ass that you are smelling the inside of your colon.

>"no u"
eloquently put

Because it's a part game. You might as well put Gang Beasts in evo too.

They be making more if they ejected the human trash neckbeards who don't bathe or stop smoking pot. Meleefaggots are objectively disgusting fucks.

It's too different from the rest if the games on display and could theoretically dilute Evo's brand.
Melee can stay. Fuck Smash 4, get that trash out.

Except they weren't?
EVO before Melee made less money, EVO after Melee makes more money.
>b-b-b-but they're disgusting! they smoke the devil's lettuce and they smell funny!
Dude you've got NOTHING, money is fucking money.

Shrek Super Slam is also a competitive fighting game. I think they should be in at EVO

Smash is objectively not a fighting game. It has none of the elements of a fighting game other than "there is fighting". Smash is a multiplayer beat-em-up.

>Fighting games
>Two fighters
>Locked into a plane with each other because the fighting is the highest priority
>Their movement is always based on the direction they are facing towards the opponent. Few games in this genre even allow you to face away
>Multiple buttons dedicated to attacking with the same arm/weapon in different stiles, with occasional directional input
>No items, no stage elements, no weapons. Only fighting.

>Beat 'em ups
>Many opponents with many fighters
>Multiple planes of interaction, including on the Z and Y access
>Movement is unlocked and free
>Each button is dedicated to a completely different function, some of which even controlling special moves
>Items, stage elements, weapons meant for beating opponents.

>It's okay to scare away customers, because these freaks deserve to play their childhood game in front of everyone because diversity lmao

Okay retard, you have no idea how businesses work.

If you ever feel retarded, just remember that there are people who get this upset over video games

This but unironically

Not to be making claims without citations, but its pretty well known that melee brings in more viewers than any other game at evo.

holy shit

Look who's fucking talking! Smash will go away when it stops being profitable. Until then, the customers they're getting are worth more than the potential customers you're convinced they're scaring away.

The top Smash players are pretty pathetic. Compare the top SF players common stone cold game face to...this.

Lmao look at that cuck smashfags are pethetic retards mhj

>smash is not a fighting game
Smash is not a """"traditional"""" fighting game, if you mean that, but it is a fighting game

Smash will be the death of the fighting game scene if allowed.

ok fine

we can at least agree that it's not an Evo game, yes? Like it shouldnt be alongside hard games.

>Game fits none of criteria of what is commonly referred to as the fighting game genre
>Attempting to "compromise" this situation
No, I mean it is literally not a fighting game. Read the rest of the post.

Shrek Super Slam Tournament Edition when?

Yes, I will agree.

And Evo is for traditional fighting games. As soon as you bend the rules for a genre, you get other shit that start to blur the lines, like

Does evo have a criteria on what they define as a fighting game that is eligible and not eligible for evo? If so, I'd really like to see it

>gays become accepted
>suddenly trannies out of fucking nowhere
>legislation for pronouns
>motions where can get literally sued for using the wrong one

>overwatch is now an esport


I guess smash is next. By the year 2020 we will all be cucks, like it or not.

Reminds me of that scene in A bronx tale, i'm not racist it's just a good example

>black kids on school bus driving through italian neighbourhood
>those niggers have some balls coming through here!
>hey man, that's just their bus route
>oh yeah? how the fuck do you know?
>my dad (bus driver) told me
>yeah? well my dad said that's just how it starts...

That little greaseball had a point.

If you have to remove almost every single element to make it a competitively viable fighting game then it's not a fighting game and you have absolutely zero respect for the base game in question but are too shit to play anything else.

Also love that defence of the shitting in beds and general lack of personal hygiene of the Smash community.

>smash bashing threads

no, if arms had won over the fgc arms would have been in, it was in at evo japan, even dissidia or virtual-on or whatever would be fine

Does it matter? Criteria for male and female is black and white as it literally gets and look where we are.

>game still evolving
>crushing the fgc's numbers
>multiple majors and supermajors throughout the year
>10 year+ storylines and rivalries
>freeform gameplay that allows for infinite creativity
>fgcucks only response is "p-party game" while we storm their biggest tournament and make it run late
Why don't you just embrace it? It's not to late to join the winning side.

It isn't very fun to play.

Because I don't have autism and because the meta is pretty solidly defined since about year 2 because the game is simple and boring.

>Power Stone is not a fighting game
>Dissidia is not a fighting game
>Virtual On is not a fighting game

They're not though.

If evo doesnt see a sufficient difference between a smash and other fighting games at evo, why are you upset?

Things are reversing, they overplayed their hand.

CompSmashFags are the cancer of the internet.

>fighting games have no stage elements
So Mortal Kombat and Soul Calibur are no longer fighting games. Got it.

The state of capbros

>Ring outs and fatality finishers are equivalent to "Stage Elements"
No.

What’s the point of making that statement if Smash is already at EVO

>You can knock people through walls and stage elements in mortal combat

Not upset, i dont even play fighters anymore, just stating that it doesn't belong. Hopefully that is ok with you?

t. somebody without the tech skill or know-how to 0-to-death somebody
neutral is vastly more interesting in melee than any 2d fighter i've played

how far did you reach into your ass to pull out this statement

>It has none of the elements of a fighting game other than fighting

>Capcbros suddenly care about the unfair treatment of KI and KoF now
love every laugh

this is the future you chose.

>KI and nu-kof
>footsies and brutal skill ceilings

this isn't kof2002, ki is kusoge regardless

Which literally does nothing, except for maybe a little extra damage in return for breaking someone out of a corner. That's not a stage element to begin with. You know this though, you're just being intellectually dishonest by applying "stage element" to tertiary conditionals that happen in most of the stages in those respective games, as opposed to shit in Smash such as traps poking out mid-match or platforms.

the definition of a goal post moving faggot
