      At worst, the love/hate for casual play in the Smash community is a 50/50 split. The majority of people, even competitive players, do not hate casual play. If anything, competitive players are more hated for “taking a kid game too seriously “.

    This is refreshing to see. On the one hand I get it. We want a fair competitive environment with no camping and keep away tactics ect.
