Improve Your Smash Play with Anther's Ladder

Hey guys! This is my first post. Today I am going to talk to you about a website that has helped me improve in Smash 4 a lot. This website is called Smash Ladder.
Smashladder
Smash Ladder (also called Anther's Ladder) is a website that is designed to help Smashers play online, improve their techniques, and meet other people like them. From the time that I have been on, most of the people are nice. Every once in a while though, you will find someone who is a jerk or just not friendly. But most of the people who are kind will tell you things that you are doing wrong in your gameplay and tell you how to improve those flaws. Anther's Ladder is set up in sets, like a tournament, not individual battles. They even do striking stages like how tournaments do. Every Smash game is available to play here, even fan projects like Project M and Super Smash Flash 2.

They also have a ranking system. The more battles that you win, the more your rank goes up, and the more battles you lose, your rank will drop down. There are three levels of ranking in one general rank. For example, in the bronze level, there is bronze III, II, and I. Same goes for all of the rest of the ranks. Also there are points in each sub rank that go up from 1 to 100. When you hit 100 you will go up a sub rank. The ranks go in this order from least to greatest: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Master, and and Grand Smasher.
The cool part about the ranking system is that higher ranked players cannot just beat lower ranking players for lots of points. For example: If someone who is ranked Bronze I fights a player ranking Gold I, the player who wins will gain no points and player who loses won't lose any.

You also have the ability to put in your location, so that you can fight players close to you. Don't worry about people finding you in real life, however, as the site protects your privacy, and only shows your state and city. And you can change the settings later if you want to only show your state and country.

So if you guys are looking for a good challenge against experienced Smashers, then Anther's Ladder is definitely the website for you! I hope to see you guys on there soon.
