Quick Pic: Meta Knight added to Super Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS roster

Nintendo has unveiled the latest addition to the Super Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS roster. See Meta Knight in 3DS form inside.

Smash Bros Unity Ruleset Committee disbands

The Unity Ruleset Committee (URC) is no longer active.

Marc of Smash Boards has announced that the Smash Bros. URC has disbanded. This means there will no longer be updates by the URC, and Meta Knight (MK) will stay unbanned (unless certain tournament organizers feel otherwise).

Last year, the URC announced that MK would be banned from all tournaments under their rule post Apex 2012. This left the Super Smash Bros. Brawl community split as to how they felt about the committee.

See the full statement on the disband below:

Two Cents: Super Smash Bros Brawl Community and the Meta Knight ban

The Unity-Ruleset Committee recently announced that they will ban Meta Knight on July, 9 2012 after Apex 2012.

The ban only follows those who use the Unity Ruleset.

The ruling has sort-of caused a split in the community between those who use the Unity Ruleset and those who don’t. One side argues that Meta Knight should not be banned and people should learn to deal with it and learn how to fight him. The other feels like the character is a plague to the community and is not allowing the competition aspect of Brawl to evolve.

Both sides constantly argue back in forth on rules that are constantly being made to change the competitive aspect of this game.
