Yeah of course. But the fact of the matter is that MS points and PSN points are region locked so that makes things really complicated. Paypal is an option but not everyone uses one. So we're not sure yet.

What it might come down to is that you'll have to use a US account to redeem the codes. It's the best option we have.

So... the fact that it can be abused is the reason for banning. A character could have an insta-kill attack and you woundn't not ban it because you assume that they won't use it. ^ Just a random example *cough U3* Anyways, bal Shika is undeniably one of the worst additions to this game, he can punish absolutely any attack and it goes into SB -> U2/U3. Even without Shika bal, imo SB -> U3 is already way too unbalanced in this game. This just makes it a hell of a lot worse. You obviously didn't understand what I was saying. I was saying that I don't think you should ban them or limit them, whatever. And I still fail to see how balanced Shika is worse than someone maining Shika and spamming his explosive tag.

And I still fail to see how balanced Shika is worse than someone maining Shika and spamming his explosive tag. I agree. I just started using gaara balance and i NEVER spam it. Its totally obvious that its coming (since its slow). as for shika.... like sandman said it'd be worse for a person to main shikamaru then to have him on balance.... and if ur still worried... learn how to substitute.

Shika balance is a pain, but what can you do.
Darknsith, i've been reading your name and putting it everywhere as Darksnith. Crazy how I never noticed it's spelling any different.

Sure, Shika and Gaara can be tough supports to deal with, but I mean, if you're really that upset with how broken this game is, then don't play it. Otherwise, you've got to just roll with the punches. Besides, this thread is meant to talk about/ask about/discuss the upcoming 5th tournament. Not to complain about how powerful Shika and Gaara bal assist projectiles are.

And I still fail to see how balanced Shika is worse than someone maining Shika and spamming his explosive tag. No, you obviously don't understand what I was saying. You said that you don't want it to be banned, so I responded, I don't get what's hard to understand. My response was my argument to why it is so overpowered in this game. In my opinion Shikamaru can be abused as a main character, but he isn't extremely strong overall and is easily punished as a character. If you combine his balanced support with an Ino or Minato main, for example, it really creates an unbalanced game. Both of those characters have tracking kunai which allow Shika to land extremely easily unless they can KnJ during the hitstun induced by the main's kunai, in other words it's hard. Both of those characters also have U1's and U2's which land extremely easily off of SB, unlike Shikamaru. Of course, Shikamaru can use Ino and Minato as balanced supports, but the knockback only matters when the team gauge is activated, so having Shika bal is a better option. Even bar that, Shikamaru is actually a good support while Ino is no more than mediocre and Minato is terrible. If you disagree with this, and you still think Shikamaru main is just as good as balanced, then my response is ban him too ^^ Combine this answer with my previous ones and you get my argument (and agreement to who suggested it) to why Shikamaru balanced should be banned.

Not to complain about how powerful Shika and Gaara bal assist projectiles are. I wasn't even the person who brought this up, it was prostriker, or something. Hell I'm the one who said not to play the game if you think it's broken. But in many professional gaming tournaments certain things are banned and if I think something is too strong, I won't hesitate to bring it up. This is on topic for the tournament though, regarding characters in it.

So we're not sure yet. But Xbox users, as far as I know can not make a US account outside of the US, but even if you can you can't actually use anything you purchase. I don't see any problem in asking the winner which way they prefer to get their reward, it's not like you have a winner every day.

it was one thing to complain about sasori in the other thread but to complain about shikamaru... thats TOO much. Shika as a main or bal support he doesnt pose much of a threat as u can easily sub, block or dash. I wouldnt worry about shika. THis theme-based tourny seems to be the one which will produce least spam

No... Shika's c.kunai are the hardest kunai to sub in the game. Anyways I said all I want to say

@joe: Ok, that was a misinterpretation on my part. But if you're saying that a character should be banned if they can be abused, why not ban Sasori and Itachi? Itachi for Susano'o obviously, and Sasori because he can be abused (in particular his infinite tilt and his seriously overpowered chakra shuriken). But you don't think Sasori shouldn't be banned (basing off of comments from a previous thread). He can be abused, though, so by your logic, he should be banned.
