It has nothing to do with wear & tear. It has to do with how Melee itself is coded to process the inputs and how the controller sends them. The techniques they use to do things like dash backs and shield drops, the specific 2 techniques that UCF addresses, are inconsistent in Melee. There’s an element of RNG with how…

You couldn’t just... let them use “it” and be whatever they asked? I’m willing to bet that all that happened was that they just wanted to be called “it”. You don’t need to substantially change mechanics just because one person wants to buck gender norms, and frankly, you sound really angry over what seems to me like a…

The use of “third-wave feminist” as an insult—I’m fairly certain you have no idea what sets a third-wave feminist apart from a second-wave feminist—is particularly anti-feminist; the mocking of nonstandard pronouns is immediately transphobic; the assumption that having pro-women, pro-LGBT politics leads directly to…

OH DEAR GOD.

Time to make this guy canon.
