If the Smash people are thinking of is Brawl then it's perfectly understandable.
Fighting Games Weekly | Sept 23-29 | Beauty and the Beast

Ratio system is interesting I will say that much. That's probably what they will try at the next When's Marvel Weekly if they want to try something new.
Tournament is supposed to start in 15 minutes although you have to account for TST.
Edit: Actually it's live right now on FGTV!

I''d like to see a weekly tournament where a ratio system is set in place. Only problem is how to set reasonable numbers for each character.

You guys want to see a tournament with ratios. Bring back CvS2. 2nd best fighting game ever.

CvS1 had stricter ratios but it was a terrible terrible game.
Well for Marvel it's pretty easy.
Top 12 characters set to 5, next 10 set to 4, next 10 set to 3, next 10 set to 2 and bottom 8 set to 1. You can use up to 10 points.
Ranking is basically what the consensus is on characters in tier ranking. After that it's just assigning numbers.

2far4me bro maybe it was broken or w/e but terrible it was not. Now SVC Chaos is terrible...but still fun.

Setting up which characters would be in the what tier would be difficult. Although for a weekly, an organizer could have an easier time getting a consensus of what that local UMvC3 community would like to see.

This Moba style stuff isn't even conventional character bans. Unknown last night on FGTV had the best reaction to the idea of bans. If you ban any of his characters, he's just going to play Zero. If you're a versatile player, it's really a matter of your opponent picking his poison.

Looks like they're doing single character bans on FGTV.

fuckin' called it, man
When they do Ratio KOF13 (and 11 I think) tourneys at Playland Carnival in Japan, characters are mainly separated by how commonly they're used in the area:
I'm leaning towards "2" being the right number for this style. Prevents you from getting rid of someone's main team completely while not outright banning certain characters into oblivion.

It was good clean fun.
I agree with two. With one there is more chance that you could substitute and make it work anyway....with certain characters (hence punishing some people a lot more than others)

Are we really sad to see a world where Dr. Doom is rare?

I guess I was wrong about there being no character doubles in Canada Cup. It's different this year.
Seeing the images of Heart in the engine test makes me think she was ripped straight out of 3D Custom Girl (and how everything from that program will probably be dumped into EF-12). If you don't know what that is, I would advise you to not Google that at work.
That 3D engine should get interesting real quick, especially as a lot of the mesh/texture/animation data from a number of 3D fighters has already been ripped. Watch, some jerkbag is going to take all of the animation and move data from VF5:FS and swap in Arcana Heart models.
And that someone may not even be me!

I feel like there is a lot to say about art style in fighting games.
Arcane Heart character design or Injustice's jarring animation are such a turn-off to me.

Please no.
Eh not really, people have done X Factor less tournaments and low damage setting tournaments before. There is even long set exhibitions with the following rule sets:
*No assists
*No meter
*No X factor
*No TAC/THC/DHC
It was the Brazil folks who did it with folks like Brian Kusunago.

Momochi giving up marvel confirmed.
Yeah pretty much. You just ban something that your team sucks against.
Also they confirmed that ban is locked for the whole set to keep it simple. My guess is that if this becomes popular they will expand on it (allow changing bans in between rounds, maybe 2 characters banned).

You start taking notes like Infiltration.
Stream Monsters can't handle spoken wisdom.
I really, really hate how often every scene/game is being lumped under FGC in FGC centric areas. You guys should know better than trying to argue about this "one game's players bans, this one hates bans, FGC make up your mind!"
Every game and location has their own culture, some are pro-ban, some are anti-ban. Some scenes will play the latest version, regardless of quality, to the detriment of their own scene's health (SC3 and watch the scene fade, SF4 AE and watch the entrants lower and lower), some will say fuck this shit and bring back the old game that works (ST instead of HDR, Smash majority going back to Melee).
Yeah, you have to lock the ban in at the start of the match w/ blind picks, simply for logistics sake.
Well if it was truly MOBA style there would be a new ban phase after every round.
But yeah he said that if people like this they will elaborate on it more in the future.
And there is some serious theory fighter discussion in the chat. Finally a chat that doesn't suck ass.

contradictory statement
There were two of them in there.
Hide yo lolis, hide you waifus, anime fighters are coming for everybody. ArcSys, Examu, and French Bread all making moves whereas Capcom and Namco are stuck in the free-to-play tarpit (with SNK as a wildcard right now and Sega doing Sega things). It wouldn't surprise me if Evo 2014 ended up turning into some weird battle between anime fighters and some unholy alliance between NRS and the ghost of Rare.

PENDING CAPCOM APPROVAL
I'm thinking of returning to BB with this game, it actually looks pretty good. Unlike the previous iterations.
