Its a simple matter that is up to the Tournament organizers like Larry and Wiz with advice from experts like Markman. There is no need to make a big fuss about something like that.
And FullSchedule played phenomenally today with all of his characters, not just Viper. So I hope people stop discrediting the guy for his efforts.

Yea kinda sucks for him, but he is sorta cheating.
The top players tweeting about it with their 10K-20K followers will cause make it seem like there's even more drama

Did Ryan object to the stick before the set was played? I feel like it's too late to complain now.
Salty suite? We already know what everyone will be talking about.
I guess sako cheated too. Poor sako.
The select/back mod is different, since that's just rearranging the buttons on the stick and has always been allowed. The auto-plink tech is basically wiring every button on the stick to also hit select, so that every input is automatically doubled up. That's technically not allowed but the only way you'll ever know is by opening the stick up or by going into training mode.
If the game, for some godforsaken reason, allowed you to bind diagonal inputs to a single button, then no one would care. You can also bind directions to buttons generally -- but it has to be a one to one mapping. You've never been allowed to wire one button to hit all three punches and have a 3P button in games that don't have that binding, and that is what this would fall under, I think.So, what we're saying is, if he mapped them to L1/L2, we'd never be having this conversation, just like the auto-plinkers...?

Ono should rip his Capcom Cup trophy away from him personally.
this is pissing me off as well. mob effect in full force

Seriously though, I warned the dude about this not even two weeks ago.
Up+right is two distinct inputs. If you bind those to 1 button then *somebody* is going to object to that because it's a macro by definition.
Why didn't he clear it with Larry. Derrike pls.

I didn't even watch Full Schedule's matches today. I'm gonna have to watch the archive and see what godlike Viper shit he was doing.
The difference is that 3P is built into the game settings, while FS's stick requires a hardware mod to macro 2 inputs onto a single button.

I didn't see anything that seemed physically impossible, but I don't know viper that well.
Just norcal being norcal
More like "to allow BYOC."
So what happened today? I just got back home. We are allowed to macros now in games now????

That actually happen or you just being a joker? =P
I don't know marvel well enough to tell but the only thing u/f and u/b would be good for would be TK moves but it looked like Full Schedule was just straight up playing better neutral and getting better mix-ups in the match rather than doing something that is nigh impossible.

Man and here I wanted to get sleep tonight.
Actually happened.
Wiz said that he called him a dbag for using his name without his permission. I said "So I can't mention you at all unless I clear it with you first? Ok"

Please.
It's a hardware mod. He's programming his controller to do things that aren't available in the game. The rules are that you can only use inputs that the game itself allows.
Well technically it is cheating if it's not a preset macro within the game. I don't see why Marvel would allow that but if it does it's fair game.
Otherwise yeah, it should be banned. It's most likely allowing him to play at a higher level than he normally could.
the mob mentality is still uncalled for. Apparently this dude has been to tournaments before and used this stick before and no one complained, but now that hes winning you want him DQed?

This is crazy but it's great :lol Seriously though, macros shouldn't be allowed.

Full Schedule doesn't mention that they're diagonal buttons in that exchange. That's the part that would be illegal.
"Hitbox-style" buttons are only up down left and right.
I don't think that's the case at all, button marcos are completely dictated by the game and are available for anyone to use. (Hell, French Bread puts button marcos in their arcade games.) Whereas this is a stick that is working around limitations of the console spec and how the game handles input. It's pretty easy to say it's allowed if the game allows it and to just cut it off from there.

Now, if they check his stick and it's just a hitbox style setup and a stick at the same time without the u/f and u/b, then what? That's pretty much the situation we have with a regular pad, isn't it? lol
Now that would just make too much sense! Think at this point it's well beyond that though.
that's so 1999
Because then there won't be any drama.
Since Mr. Wizard is under fire, it looks like people are going to try to overthrow the Illuminati :lol
if you stopped by the "Parappa the Rapper told me to drop dead" thread, you would know controversy sells man
Marvel viewership is gonna be at 50k tomorrow

Full Schedule has already tweeted that they're diagonal upforward / upback buttons.
