Blujay and BlankMauser developed the ssbu-less-lag repository to diminish the required input delay in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s online play by three frames. This modded feature made online matches feel more akin to offline play, which proved helpful for competitive players. Despite its benefits, it sprouted heated arguments about its strict use and requirements, such as the need for a moddable Nintendo Switch console.
This controversy has led aggressors towards the mod creators, resulting in their personal information being doxxed. When the anonymous sources leaked the mods’ sensitive info on GitHub, the creators felt pressured enough to close support and distribution of the repository. The overwhelming stress will also separate them from the Smash community as the heated debate about the mod usage for Super Smash Bros Ultimate continues.Â
