I know how you feel but, think it clearly, they are just a bunch of ***** with no talent but to mess with others. If you happen to encounter with them or similar people again, just make your best effort. At the end is more the things you learn that the chances for them to change Good luck!

Whenever I played SSBB, that's the only people I've ever played against. I think it might be local friends who team up against one person or something.

People have tried that against me, but I beat them all down, and it was I who was left to laugh.

There is a term for this. It's called a taunt party. They are common and plague Basic Brawl.

There is actually a huge thread about all this on a brawl dedicated website.

I'm used to fighting 3 on 1 so when it happens to me, it's normal. I love making them hit each other in attempt to hit me. I mained Jigglypuff since 64 and trying to hit her in the air is a real pain and I use that to my advantage when fighting 1 on 3. I usually win and taunt them throughout the entire next match after I knock one of their people out. It annoys the crap out of them. Victory against cheaters is sweeter than victory against noncheaters.

That happened to me once and I don't even know how they manage to accomplish it. SSBB just pairs people up randomly so I don't get how some people manage to get together and team up on people. There isn't even Wii Speak.

Haven't you heard? People play Basic Brawl to taunt and team up. Well atleast 80%+ do.

You ran into a taunt party. Basically, if everyone starts taunting and messing around, then you're at a Taunt Party. Anyone who attacks a taunt partyist is called a crasher, and many times they will gang up on you.

Trust me, I personally dislike Taunt Parties and I've gone out of my way to crash them.

Don't let it get to you, even if you are a very skilled player three people ganging up on you never really gives you a chance in the first place. I've won matches after crashing a party, and I've lost them as well. My advice is to take advantage of items, isolate them if you can, and pick stages where its harder for them to gang up on you. Also, if you do have a point advantage, run away from them and stall as long as you can.

Also, good Taunt Partyists will often send one person out at a time to confront you. This is done so they can avoid damaging other members of the party when they attack the crasher. Use this to your advantage and treat it as a 1 on 1 match at that point. Also, if another taunt partyist tries to spam projectiles, then try to work that to your advantage by forcing the partyist that is fighting you into them.

The most important thing to keep in mind is that they are not immune to each others attacks. If you can, let them hit each other whenever they try to attack you, and then pick them off when you get a chance. Play very defensively, use items to you advantage, and lure them into hurting each other. Final Smashes are your friend in these kinds of matches, and getting one can be a big help.

Even if you lose, don't get discouraged. These things plauge Basic Brawl, so there's no real avoiding them. I tend to take joy when I crash a party and win it. I've seen partyist quit in frustration immediately after the match ends.

If you want competivie matches against people online I would advise you go into team battle. I've played some good matches there, and fought against some good players. Even better, I have yet to see a taunt party on there.

Just don't let this bother you.
