I hated when my friends would do that, especially when none of them were tourney players.
I put an end to that shit. It was either we played as is or we played something else. It doesn't have to be an EVO tournament in our houses.
My unpopular opinion is that the pros aren't actually that good if they have to gut a game to play it. I wanna see the do all the crazy shit they do but with items on and on annoying stages like the moving Pokémon one. Either get good or fuck off. I can't think of another game where they do this stuff to this extent.
They do this in every game that has a competitive scene. It's done as a means of eliminating random chance being the factor for a victory or defeat. Does that make it less fun? Depends on who you ask.
If you ask me, yes. But then I don't play competitively.
What other competitive scene eliminates all the content from the game besides 1 level
Rocket League
They removed non-standard areas first from competitive queue and then from Standard as well. And then they stopped offering the rocketlabs Gamemode for non-standard Maps.
It took me all of 10 seconds to find the rocket league list of competitive maps, and it's about 16x the field of "competitive smash"
I play rocket League and i can tell you that they are all the exact same shape and size. They just have different colours and environments around them.
There used to be non standard maps in competitive, some of them were oval, or otherwise differently shaped. See here: https://liquipedia.net/rocketleague/Category:Non-Standard_Maps
If Smash Maps were all the exact same shape with different textures your point would be valid.
Evo finals: 999 timer, all items high, poke floats
There was a time Pokéfloats was legal.
The cowards couldn't handle it
I get that you have no experience trying to play this game skillfully and don’t really care about the concept of fair competition but I can promise you, the competitive players would still dunk on you with every mechanic turned on. Because without the gimmicks you actually have to learn the base mechanics to win which Carrie’s to any game mode.
They know more about the game then you so they know how abusable the item system can be and how obstructive stage hazards can get. They’re looking to compete, not just dick around with friends so of course they’d look for the most equal ground to see who’s better.
