Ken (Marth) vs PC Chris (Falco) Set 2 Match 5

MLG Anaheim 2006

And since this question keeps coming up, this *is* the last match in the set. The commentator got it wrong. He only needed to win one set due to the fact that he was from the winner's bracket.

Is counter not allowed?

@Koadydb

What gave you that impression?

It definitely is allowed. If I recall correctly, Ken used it several times in earlier matches. There are no individual moves in Melee that are banned from tournaments. Only things like the Ice Climbers freeze glitch and the like.

PC CARS.

Even FD and Dreamland aren't balanced. Dreamland is darn broken for Puff, Peach, and Falcon. FD is a really good Falcon stage, lets Falco laser pressure easily, and makes characters with CGs go to town without the possible interference of platforms. Even the loss of platforms benefits some characters but not others.

Essentially, there's no such thing as a completely neutral stage because all characters are different. Thus why the counter pick system has worked for years.

@rmontsinger i think its because of the time that marth/roy is vulnerable at the end. the ending lag is unacceptable for high level players

Ken and PC Chris: The Flash and Jaedong of SSBM.

Idk, i love mute city, but i can understand it being banned the cars pretty much gave pc the loss without a doubt ken would have lost he was in the middle of being combo'd

[rmontsinger]

@Koadydb most high level players don't use counter, and I'm not sure why. (I'm not a high level player, though, so that may have something to do with it.)
