Should Final Smash meters be competitively legal?

Almost nothing in Smash is balanced around 1v1 play. Therefore, I expect tourneys to ban Literally Everything, and then we can play something else. :)

Welp, there it goes. RIP the dream. No way FS Meter is being legal after this revelation.

Revelation? He said the mode was great for parties in the Direct itself. Trust me, just because this discussion has gone quiet now that people are forgetting it exists, it will come back. People that don't play competitive telling us how to run our events. Whether it's fighting games or speedrunning people get triggered about us not playing the game they very briefly want to see it played. This Tweet has done noting but add fuel to the fire because our side of the argument is exactly where it's been the past couple weeks. Meanwhile:

"Sakurai thought Melee is great for parties too. I guess we shouldn't be playing that game at all then."

"You can't blame me for not knowing how FS Meter works because it's just 30 seconds of footage in a Direct I watched just once"

"Just block the Final Smashes smh"

"I have no substantial opinions or facts to help my case but we shouldn't judge anything before the game comes out so THERE"

"What about THIS mechanic to balance the mode? Y'know, since the players are apparently in charge of designing the Final Smash meter and have a direct link to the development team"

"Just make it a side tournament. I've never been to a tournament to know how many hours and how much management just one event takes to get through, but this is one I want you guys to be playing at venues I will never attend or watch"

"I have a surface level understanding of smash and think no items fox only final destination is or ever was the standard so it sounds like you guys are just resistant to change."

"We should just TRY the mode out. And by that I mean you're all terrible human beings if this doesn't show up at EVO 2019."
