Unforgettable's case might be because the stage is too big and random, along with the longest load time. At this time I'm going to be discussing with my scene if Miyabi, & Hidden Garden should be banned (similar situation to Azuchi I think). Forbidden Fortune is unbelievable dumb so that's a no-brainer.

That's a shame because I really like Forbidden Fortune. Probably one of my favorite DOA stages. The glitches there need to be addressed, which is why I could understand if that was the reason like Miyabi. DOA being all about danger zones it's weird that something like Unforgettable is banned (I don't think it's that bad), but if it's a loading issue then I guess it can't be helped until it's resolved.

Might be just for this season of the World Championship. I like how the Japanese take their fighting games seriously. However, I think Miyabi & Hidden Garden should be allowed and just get them patched before the tournament circuit next month. They already patched the "out of bounds" glitches on Miyabi a couple weeks ago.

I see. Wonder why they still banned Miyabi and the gardens stages then if the glitches were already taken care of :/. They were cool stages too (and had good music).

Sawazuma from Japan who TOs some of the events out there mentioned that Miyabi still has out of bounds glitches outside of the one we seen. Apparently this is from multitude of character issues that affects multiple stages on all levels where some characters holds and throws can make opponents go off bounds. Bass's low hold for example, Diego's air throw, Nyotengu's 4T and 6T near a wall etc etc.

Which is pretty funny actually, considering the stages that aren't banned have some of those issues too, I guess some of the character animation pushes to make them go off axis or out of bounds might be less on the stages that aren't banned vs the ones that are banned currently.

Hopefully those get fixed soon then. It feels like 6 doesn't have that many stages already (but I do like most of them).

Yeah, there's around 15ish stages I think. Banning Miyabi & Hidden Garden is overkill IMO. In my own scene, likely only Forbidden Fortune & Chamber of Potential will be banned. FF's is too fucked up of a stage at the moment, and it's the stage that seems to have the most random outcomes in comparison to others.

It's still very rare to trigger character off bounds situations and wonky float glitches, personally I think they shouldn't be banned either but I guess Japan doesn't want to take that chance. Think the issue with Miyabi is that it's shell seems fragile to just about anything that can glitch the stage out.

Like I could whiff a jab right there in the open in Miyabi and then a door opens behind me to over 30+ bugs.

The sad, funny thing is that, I really enjoyed fighting "out of bounds" on Miyabi. I like the look of the stage outside the walls. TN should consider extending the stage to have fights go outside the walled section, because I thought it looked cool personally.
