Does Smash for Wii U let you set up your own online tournaments yet?

In a kind of way.

it's trash though it's not like the old tournament modes of the older games.

online play however is excellent unless someone has a bad internet connection.

And no there is no offline tournament mode yet, however I must say that for offline play it is not necesarry since it can be done manually pretty easily.

Melee is still very limited in character variety in the higher tiers of competitive play; the dude using Peach seems to be the only one who can afford to go outside the 5 character comfort zone.  Nobody's dissing your fav game, but its pro scene has some pretty limited viability right now just due to the way it works compared to other fighting games.

Afford lol peach wrecks fox. Chain grabbing fox is really easy with peach.

Many people don't like using peach that's my guess anyways. Heck I don't want to play peach even if she is really good. Many people prefer other charaters and my guess is that they don't want to play a sissy charater like peach since if I'm honest fox needs to think twice before going into a peach.

Aside from that ice climbers, samus, pikachu some falcon's do pretty well to. and are all players in top 20 range.

Regarding other fighting games usually it is the same way a top 10 or less characters wich are competetive viable while the rest of the cast dies out.

There are always a select group of charaters that people use, It's unavoidable that every character is balanced. In games like street fighter II the cast consisted of only 5 characters to be competetive viable while iconic characters like Ken and RYU were bottom tier and not suitable for competition.

i love smash and even pro smash to death but this is pretty much the pro scene:

This isn't my picture but I have literally done this.

And yet the best player destroys all top fox players while using peach wich is not even in the top 5 characters.

I don't see it aside from the other 4 top tier charaters pretty evenly matched. Heck I might even say top 10 seriously. Furthermore allot of top 10 players are not fox mains there are allot of sheik and falco mains on the top.

If you go lower than indeed allot of fox but at top lvl play there are plenty of different characters aside from fox.

I have never seen it. Me and my brothers played Smash every day growing up and were never unfortunate enough to deal with that. But, again, we didn't like using items. There were occasions when all of the items were on Very High. It was chaos, but I never saw anyone randomly detonate.

Biking was just pointing out that it seems lame to not include a classic part of Smash brothers in competitive play.

When I was growing up I pretty much played this game everyday with friends and my brother.

Pretty much all the time with items on very high. So believe it you will randomly die and there is nothing that you can do about it.

I get it just fine. And this is coming from someone who actually doesn't like using items at all, even when I'm playing just for fun. Items are not a game breaker. Each one has a disadvantage.

Again, I have never -EVER- seen a player randomly explode. If an item is thrown? Absolutely.

I have believe it,

If your unfortunate enough when a bottle or box spawns above you and falls on top of you

Or ofcourse during a move when an items spawns.

I prefer to play without items but I definitly do have some fun times on matches with items.

just saying that for competitive scene items are a no go. There is no skill in using items they are overall easy to use if you know a thing or two.

items are fun I do play the occasional match with items.

A newcomer that camps while waiting for items is going to get massacred by a more experienced player.

Each item has a use, but also has a disadvantage. An experienced player can work with an item or deal with someone who is relying on an item. Also, in all my years of playing all iterations of Smash, I have never seen someone randomly explode in the sky. If there's an explosion, it's because someone set a trap, threw a Bob-omb or let a Bob-omb/Electrode remain dormant for too long. Those are just a few examples.

You don't get it.

One match last two rounds, if one is really lucky even without camping a proffesional player can be knocked out of the bracket by some guy who just was lucky and has no skill at all. Everyone can win with items.

Also if two proffesional player play against eachouther there is no skill involved It's just who has the best item first

Furtheremore there are random explosions.

If a bottle or even box falls out of the sky and your near (under) it it will explode. I'm not to sure about bombs but It's torally random.

yes you can catch items but a pokeball can also be thrown down so pretty much useless.

Also if I'm not mistaken bombs and explosions cannot be shielded you can't even power shield them.

You're not understanding what Biking is saying. He said being ready for items and their randomness takes just as much as skill as other aspects in Melee.

Howcome?

Even a total noob can win from a top player when throwing a few pokeballs or having stars all the time.

There is nothing that you can do about that.

Furthermore random explosions out of nowhere wich kill you instantly unreactable.

I must be missing something but items are way to random and it takes no skill it all if you get the right items or if your opponent is unlucky when an explosion falls out of the sky.

Super Smash Bros Melee, Call of duty (all of them)

How can you call smash melee an overated game while it is an excellent game that everyone praises.

It is the best in the series thanks to gameplay mechanics especially in the competetive scene.

It's the fastest smash game with the most things to master. It is really technical and it has way more variety than the standard 2d fighting games. You will actually need allot of skill to be really good at this game aside from allot of different things wich can happen during battle.

That cannot be said towards other 2d fighting games with the same combo's wich are used all the time.

It is also a game that is really addicting, one can spend litterally hours on this game even if one does not want to.

I will say this though that there are few games that can make you stay hooked so long as melee. Furthermore a nearly perfect game it cannot be called overrated.

The new Street fighter games are overated wich are garbage in my opinion.

Also if I'm honest you cannot call cal of duty and halo series overrated games.

Why not if you might task?

I personally don't like the games but they are the best in their series, they make people play them for litterally hours days weeks months's while doing nothing else. Furthermore there are allot of people who do this.

If a game does this to a large amount of people One cannot simple say that a game is overrated since there are plenty who want to play this game and find it great especially with game such as halo etc since those communities are pretty much the largest of them all and all hooked on them as addicts.

Seriously compared to those communities we are nothing, It's just your opinion that you don't like the game that much while plenty of others do. in my opinion if that's the case a game is not overated even though I'm not a fan of those series I have to admit that they are the best in their series it's fact. You cannot call those games overated if they are the best in that genre.

Melee is a fun game, in fact I'd definitely say it's top 5 Gamecube game hands down. The reason it is overrated is because of people treating like it's the perfect game. It isn't.

It's relevance in the competitive scene is based off a bunch of people finding control exploits that Sakurai himself condemned as being improper in regards to how the game was intended to be played. Essentially the competitive scene is made up of people who are trying to out-cheat the other person in order to claim victory. I don't call that a perfect game or a masterpiece, I call that a broken game. On top of that, the roster is heavily unbalanced, favoring heavily 4 or 5 characters that 80% of the competitive players use. Also, I find it hilarious that competitive players shun the use of items when last time I checked they are a key part of the gameplay. Seems to me that they should be included in so called competitive play, but maybe that's just me. Because of this, a lot of people act like this game is the best fighting game ever made when it doesn't even come close, at least as a game that is competitive by design.

As far as Melee's lasting appeal, it's entirely subjective. I for one enjoy playing it here and there, but have never felt like playing it for hours on end, at least not since around the time it first came out. I know many people who don't care for it at all. To say "everyone' praises it is a gross over-generalization.

Again, not shitting on this game, only pointing out why I claim it is overrated. Very fun game and is definitely one of the best game to sit down with people and play.

Competitive Players consider Melee to be 90% mental and 10% Tech Skill game, so it being "made up of people who are trying to out-cheat the other person in order to claim victory" would make sense, however just like you said it all subjective. Just because it doesn't fit the generic mold of a "2D Fighter" doesn't mean its broken.
Technically, it about 10 of them and there are plenty of low tier heroes in the competitive scene. The use of items did exist in early scene but overall was banned because it basically made it a game of luck.

Competitive melee is something you really enjoy or really dislike.

Take this with a grain of salt.

Nothing against it not being a traditional 2D fighter and that is not at all why it's broken imo. I believe it is broken because in order to be competitive one must become adept at exploiting the games controls in a way they were never meant to be used. Hence why the better you are at cheating (wave dashing and all the other so called competitive techniques) the more likely you are to beat your opponent who isn't as good as you at exploiting the game. That is what makes it a broken game and partially why the competitive melee scene isn't respected nearly as much as many other competitive gaming scenes. Scenes that are for the most part based around genuinely skilled players playing the game as it was intended and designed to prove they are better.

Yeah, items are random, but I believe a true test of skill is to be able to deal with any of those items as their user or as a person trying to defend against their use. I believe this is something that the Melee scene couldn't or didn't want to deal with so they decided to ban items instead.

What's sad is that underneath all the exploits is a very fun game that can still be played competitively, but unfortunately has been hijacked by people who feel otherwise. My opinion of course.

exploiting the game by methods wich were no natural for te game called cheating?

It does require allot of skill to master these methods and there are more and more people who master them

The way you say it it is like those cheats are really easy to use wich they are not. i can;t call it cheating if the opponent has all the info available for the start to master it. It;s just a matter of perfect timing and reading what your opponent might do in the next steps.

i don't see the point since everyone has these tricks available online how to do them. Not many people are good at mastering them in fact only the top 50 worldwide can do it pretty well.

i don't see the point even though it is not natural for the game everyone can use it and it requires allot of skill. Items are a luck factor you can't play with items some items are just way to OP.
