Not as iconic as Heavy or Scout is.
does the game start you out with a "high" gsp when you first play online? the first time i went online i had like 2.1 mil on each character before even playing a match
I should've watched the video before responding, so yeah I was on the wrong. However now that I am done: It quite literally... doesn't support your point or prove that "GSP is meaningless lmaooo"
Roster GSP is not relevant at all - from my personal understanding it appears to be something entire unrelated; The game matches you based on your character GSP, not your roster GSP - as it should.
And well; I once again don't know your standards. Most of the fellas I am fighting don't spam rolls and when they SD I usually throw 'em a rematch and as it turns out they just did a mistake.
I really really don't think this is the case, because I don't seem to get matched against worse players if I lose like 7 times in a row and my GSP with that character gets halved
From what it seems like it gives you the "average" of the current max gsp. I doubt you had 2.1 mil on each character without having played before; But I'll check with a smurf.
He is just as iconic as them and you know it. If he wasn't he wouldn't have been featured so prominently in various amounts of TF2 media such as the comics or the Meet the Team videos.
The video in question suggested that you get thrown into matches with players which are also on "loss streaks" which might explain that. It's hard to identify that because you can't exactly analyze perfectly how good a player is in 1-3 matches.
I played a lot of offline modes but I hadnt touched online. I raised my ganon to 2.7 after like 10 matches but thats all Ive played as him
I'm just telling you how it is for me, and going off other posts from people in elite I've seen on twitter(lythero/alpharad/others) it's more of the same.
I'm not saying people are trash (I mean hell I'm not super hot either) but it really doesn't mean much outside the announcer yelling *ELITE* Smash!!! and your roster becoming ugly and dim. I have people ducking on me all the time if I play Dedede or Ness and only stick around if I'm a low tier like Kirby. Watching Shofu or Lythero's streams have people bouncing just as often getting met with surprised "oh they actually stayed, good"
It's just how it is for me and apparently a lot of other folks.
That and I peeked into spectator mode for fun and every few matches I'd see 1,400,586 player vs a 2,300,485 player. That's kind of a colossal gap.
Offline doesn't matter for online. Ganon being raised to 2.7 explains that as the game sets your character default to what your highest is minus some value. So if your highest is, well, very high, so will your other characters. From what I have seen however you can't have all characters in elite by default, and that seems hardlocked.
1,400,586 vs. 2,300,485 actually isn't that big of a gap due to GSP being a bell curve.
As far as the rest goes; I can see how you believe this, but I still think those are just "short term elite smash lads". Elite Smash does really do nothing in particular but to make people which take it pretty seriously feel good.
The thing I am defending is not elite smash in particular but the GSP system.
For all I care they can remove the elite term or whatever because it's just a reskin either way; It boils down to getting to fight actually competent fellas if you are up the ranks and you even kinda start a small community of people given if you are high enough, the amount of players it matches you against becomes smaller, thus you'll fight some players every day or so which you already know; Shoutout to the german pink dedede that always crouches with me at the start of a match - PS: I hate dedede dittos nevermind frick you
lets be honest here guys Captain Price is who they're gonna announce next
Final Smash is you have to run the Training in less than 20 seconds or instantly die
What's the rough GSP to reach elite at this point?
For me at least, I got dropped from it even though I'm at 3.1 million GSP, so probably a bit more.
3.26mil is my peak and I have five characters over 3mil, never seen it open up
Must be a LOT higher than 3mil now, jeez
All of them are iconic tbh
Hot take: My GSP shouldn't be lowered if I lose against someone with 500k higher GSP than me
Regardless of who is or isn't the most iconic I just think Soldier would make the best transition into a fighter of those 3 because he doesn't rely on bullet-based weapons and has the more interesting movement abilities
I also just personally love his goofy personality and voice lines so I guess I'm a bit biased
Actually I'm pretty sure Minecraft is very popular in the east. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I saw that it is pretty big over in Japan. In fact Minecraft was the top seller in Japan for switch early 2018
I heard a different suggestion that I think would be pretty effective across the board.
GSP is only reduced after your SECOND loss of the day and onward. To compensate for this and reduce the potential exploits, you will always gain more GSP from your first three wins of the day, encouraging you to keep playing even after that one loss it forgives.
So it's a Snake Echo, then.
Scout would work fine if his shotgun is just his smash attack or something, kinda like Isabelle's party popper. The bat could be his tilt, maybe.
don't know how i should feel about you calling it that

holy fuck, what a painful quickplay match
Pardon me, Scout's massive horsecock
They could at least get green and yellow versions to reference TFC
gsp is a bell curve and 500k higher is not a large difference when you are not at the bottom of the barrel or at the top
Instead of GSP show your standard deviation from the mean maybe? Probably a good way to hide it by making a set number of deviation have a phrase, like "Getting there" to "Competent" to "Elite" or something, then in Elite have a GSP number or something that is sort of condensed.This way you'd need to win or lose a bunch of matches to really change positions, the phrasing is positive, and the hard core competitive types get a ranking system.
