Critical Edge: A Brief History of Banning...

Harada appears in one of the modes of SCV using DJ style doesn't he? If he cannot be unlocked as the game stands, perhaps you guys can reach out to Namco and ask for a patch that allows him to be accessible. You seem to have access to Namco representatives who will, at the very least, listen to what you have to say even if they ultimately do not do what you ask. If we take Daishi's comments on the topic into consideration, it seems like Namco wants DJ style to be playable without restriction, so perhaps they will be open to the idea. It would not be much work on their part I suspect. Harada's design is already coded into the game.

Having Harada's character be playable would allow for an easy to access, standard DJ character. That would seem to solve the TO administrative problem.

Try not to rage at me if this makes no sense for some reason that is not immediately obvious to me. Just trying to offer a constructive suggestion as a member of the community.
 
If DJ is banned at major events, who is really going to learn how to play him seriously for minor events? You won't find his true potential if nobody seriously mains him, and people won't bother too much with finding anti-strategies for him if they know they won't have to face him at a major anyways.
And if I were a Tekken player picking up SC5 cause of DJ, I'd be pretty annoyed to find out later that DJ is banned at major events after playing him at minor events.
Just seems pointless to go halfway to me.
 
I say do casual matches where we NE people can help you decide on the decision making for the community. Hey, I don't mind being a guinea pig for this possibly future changing decision. If it helps close the gap in the community while also expanding it, let's test this stuff out. I know a guy who'd be great to help you figure that out Jax..........ZOMBIEBEAR. He's a beast when it comes to those kinds of things, so put his a** to work.lol
 
The first barrier is that DJ is a CaS, so he should be banned... period.

IF (and only if) they make a DJ character then we may start discussing if he is balanced for competitive play or not... we may even play him in free games (hell, even a couple of minor/side tournaments) and discuss if he is really balanced or not, but I think a double ruleset may only split the community for a hypothetical situation.

One more thought: what if we make DJ CaS model to use in minors... and then we figure out that one character combo doesn't work on him (but works on everyone else) what should we do??? Change the model? Start testing every single model till we find a better one? Let DJ have this particular advantage?
