About stats

[Johans Nidorino]

I noticed the character pages now have stats with values between 1 and 10, as opposed to the previous format, which was between 1 and 5.

I thought the previous format was based on some convention made by big sites like Smash World, but it seems these are made by observation or as a revamp... What's the truth behind this new stat format and the previous one? Should we submit characters this way from now on?

That's an interesting question, Johans!! This change surprised me, too...

Ah, the stats. Yes, I did change them from a 5-scale to a 10-scale. My reasoning is simple: Under the 10-scale, I can exposes fairly minor statistical differences that are still noticable. These differences couldn't be exposed under the 5-scale, which ranks characters too concretely, while the 10-scale is more flexible. Try to submit in the 10-scale, but if you forget and put it in the 5-scale, don't worry, I'll figure out the 10-scale stats.

Also, if anyone else is using these scales, I am not aware. I made the scale myself, so if it's official, great, if not, whatever. I'm using my own scale.
