Learning to recover on Battlefield as a new player is rough. When I first picked up Melee with Marth, I hated that stage. Even once I learned the correct spacing, there was still the problem of doing aerials from ledge and keeping my spacing correct. I've probably died hundreds of times to hitting my head on the underside of that stage. It's not a problem for me anymore, but I still wouldn't be opposed to us allowing custom stages that actually function properly in tournament.

[@EnergyBurst2]

Very interesting, this vid made me actually take a close look at battlefield due to reading that trophy description and yeah it is kinda a sinister looking stage now that I look at it, spikes spines and ribcages certainly give off a sinister vibe. also a funny little thing that has been happening as of late is that some people in a discord I'm in have started thanking me whenever you upload a video as a joke cause they keep claiming I sound almost exactly like you in voice chat.
