>>714127848>ok so can we lift all the overbearing limitations that were evidently only put in to nerf Fox?I did not and would not say this. Fox would absolutely outperform low tiers on banned stages, but that's not why it was banned. Do you seriously think pokefloats is no longer legal solely because Fox fortnite dances on, say, Kirby on it? No. Your large meme stages are so fucking campy it leads to horrendously boring matches for both spectator amd player alike. One way moving meme stages "nerf" Fox because they're easy as shit to gimp people on, and Mr. Shine man is, expectedly, pretty good at gimping people. But you're delusional if you believe that's the only reason.
>the main knock against competitive Melee was always that it seemed like you'd rather ban shit than learn to deal with it.Coming from the guy clamoring to have Fox banned? Yeah, that is pretty fuckin rich. Banning stages that'll kill you after one hit because you got knocked over onto a platform that quickly pulls you off screen before you are actionable is not the same as banning a whole character for having a ton of representation.
>And seems like you're admitting this was true, and [...] realized that it's [...] possible to deal with a meta without out-of-game measuresYou're the one crying about Fox's legality. I'd much rather ban 10 stages that make it easy to gimp someone's stock than an entire playable character.
