I actually like that there's a 'random' option here too. Considering I'll probably only be playing online against you people or my meatlife friends, I don't really care about what 'veterans' or 'competitive players' do. I mean, I'm pretty damn good at Melee if I may say so myself, but I think gaming tournaments are pretty stupid on every level. Especially since the tournament play limits to one on one playing on Final Destination with all items turned off, which basically ruins all of the fun of Smash Brothers in the first place.
Seriously, if we get a QC game going on, items and Final Smashes are staying on and the stage will be random, I am not gonna put up with that fucking attitude about the 'purity' of the competition or any of that bullshit. I'm fairly certain nobody's like that around here anyway, but I'm putting that out there just to let everyone know. Smash Brothers is about having crazy, chaotic fun, not bitching and moaning about losing because of some lucky item grab.
