  • From the very beginning where people started calling for a Steve Ban, to the actual ban, and its aftermath, I have thrown in my thoughts in the pool of fire in multiple videos. This is my supercut of all those videos, showcasing my full history on discussing the topic!

    My region banned Steve a while ago and it's only been good things since then :'] most of our Steve players picked a new character and tournament attendance is up. If you're a pro Steve main I can understand not being for it but for like 90% of the people that go to our tournaments it's pretty nice

      Facts. I don't see this said enough. As was said in the video, there isn't even a set stage list for tournaments. The irony between the smash community being mad at Nintendo for not supporting the competitive scene and then turning around and not do anything resembling a competitive fighting game community is frustrating

    I mean this reminds me of in pokemon when zacian and incineroar were the best offensive and defensive pokemon in the meta and they werent going to be banned even tho it made the meta very strict to what could be played or you had to had to counter them with mons weaker than those two so it was what do you do and i mean zacian got nerfed going into the next game as a result at some point people will have to have a playstyle or character in there roster that isnt even a secondary it is who or how they play against only steve

    In my opinion, Ultimate's niche is the number of characters. Although Steve tech isn't as broken as I thought it would be, in a 90 character roster he takes over too much of the competitive scene.

      @@drapples9674 That's the thing, results are objective, anyisis aren't, I think Sonic is the best character in the game, while Marss thinks is Aegis and Esam thinks is Steve, and that's just one placement, that's why it doesn't look good, because tierlist aren't something to get a definitive idea of which character is slighty better than other, their purpose is just to get a basic idea of the meta.

    13:40 i feel like this is all dependent on the next smash game for competitive, if we get another brawl people will play ultimate instead, if we get another melee everybody will drop ult, just like with smash 4, had ult not been so good everybody who doesnt wanna play melee would be doing competitive smash 4 rn, but ult is much better competitively so the community is split between melee and ultimate

    I think this should be brought up, that in the mid 2023 season, LumiRank had the top 100 ranked. Out of those players four mained Steve, one secondaried Steve, and one had a tertiary main of Steve. Is that fair to those competitors that their character is banned and still weighed the same? 6 players in the top 100 were playing Steve in some capacity.

If y'all really didn't want him gone, you wouldn't bring it into question time and time again. Everyone KNEW he would only get worse with time.

    Regarding how tournaments are weighed, why does anyone even really care? Their rankings do not affect anything besides their seeding, and that's it. The best players are still going to be making it to the top of the brackets anyway. Don't like who you are playing in the bracket? Suck it up. The rest of the scrubs down here don't get that kind of luxury. If a character wins against 80 percent of the cast, makes watching and playing the game boring, and affects how players are ranked to the point where they have to complain about it, I don't see any viable argument on why this character should not be banned. It would be better for all parties except people who are using Steve as a crutch to get wins and pad their stock. This is Bayonetta all over again.
