Also i think the connections wont be a major factor i usually have a decent connection with everyone. Mirrors aren’t really a 50/50 depending on how good the person with the character is it will always show in the match.
Obviously, this isn’t supposed to prove anything. Space is just trying to get some event going during the wait time for the patch. Unless this is actually supposed to determine a temporary tier list, which would be silly imo (online with a limited set of players). Either way, enjoy.
Like, the purpose of the tourney is to establish this:
You simply can not achieve this decision by having a a completely ratio 1 tournament.
As GuitarAlex pointed out, this would be useful maybe for looking at tier listings for Ratio 1 characters, but really nothing else.
This game is built around the options of having assists, so if you have a 1v1 tournament, you are eliminating a large amount
of the variables that makes somebody ‘good’ with a character.
Like I said, its really cool and sweet if people want to do a 1v1 tournament, but I think it would be more interesting to have something more competitive.
This would also create more approachable media to show off to peeps if someone is able to record, somehow.
Game is built around both teams and solos. Solo’s are weaker atm, but they are an option you have to look at somewhat seriously. It’s not like MVC2, where you could choose a single character if you wanted, so making that comparison is wrong. Besides, playing solo can really highlight your weaknesses; it helps to show you exactly what areas you overly rely on assists for, and help you come up with ways to compensate.
But playing a solo tournament is sucking so much diversity out of the game.
The comparison isn’t really all that wrong, since the comparison made was:
which is true. any results the tournament produces are null and pointless since a HUGE factor of the game was, for some reason, not implemented.
there is another side to that coin, where playing playing with assists can really highlight your weaknesses, it shows you exactly where you fall prey to a huge factor of the game, and ways to compensate.
I know you play solo, but its not like people who play teams don’t have to learn how to deal with assists, or that everyone who uses them doesn’t know how to use their characters properly. We have to deal with assists just as much as anybody else, so that point is pretty moot.
And like I said, I think most importantly we could create a good opportunity to create some media to show people a true representation of the game. we don’t very many opportunities to do that.
