Starting as Zero Suit Samus, A discussion and Poll

[hyperballistic]

I have a delimma.

My brother plays as samus on SSBB and i usually play as whoever i feal like (but mostly Gannon)

He knows the button combo that lets you start as Zero Suit Samus and uses it all the time. Whenever he does, i get my ass kicked as Gannon, and most of the other caracters.

My question is this, should Using a button combo to start as ZSS be considered cheating?

I mean, usually you need to get a smash ball to change, unlike zelda, who can change with just a button press, so its like he's using a cheat to get a free smash ball.

(btw, the "oh, but you can start as shiek too, and you don't say that's cheating!" thing is his main defence)

so, with that, I leave it up to you guys to make the decision, i'm not gonna vote. (at least not at first)

Not cheating. All you do is hold down one button, and Smash Bros. Dojo (run by the guy who made SSBB) tells you what it is. Also, not everyone can use Samus normally due to her horizontal way of fighting. One of my friends only uses Zero Suit Samus because of this. Then there's the people (like me) who never turn on Smash Balls. It'd be impossible to ever use ZSS.

tl;dr: Using ZSS from the start is not cheating. Nor should it ever even be considered as such. By anyone. Just learn how to kill her, it's not hard.
