Brawl is really unfun. They went too far to make it non-competitive and just made the game bad (tripping, physics engine is a viscous fluid, etc).

Melee is my favorite. I'm also friends with the #4 melee player in NorCal.

Brawl should have just been project M

Brawl has a bunch of really cool features on top of a fundamentally broken game.

Balance aside, the physics and mechanics of brawl are fundamentally terrible.

Also, I've taken a game off of WestBallz in tourney. he proceeded to 4 stock me with only 27% damage...

Taking a game off Westballz is pretty amazing though.

Gimmicky characters aren't a bad thing - adding gimmicks is the best way to allow for character diversity because it gives different characters different things to be good at.

Round 1 Evo pools is really sad to watch. So much 4 stock.

I thought we were talking about Evo?

You're trolling is both obnoxious and not appreciated.

i meant M2K best 1v1. at least, he used to be.

He was at one point, but not anymore. Given his health issues, he's probably not even top 6 anymore.

One thing I will say about evo is that it's bullshit that loser's doesn't get mixed up as people get sent down. Sam going into loser's from losing to Chudat and then playin Chudat in losers like 2-3 rounds later is bad bracket setup :/

BROseidon · Post Post #41 (isolation #13) » Sat Jul 18, 2015 6:16 am

Laudandus vs Chudat is also far from the only place where that has/will happen

This is an SSBM thread. If you want to talk about EVO as a whole, make a thread for it.

While a good game, it is not a smash brothers game.

I don't. I play luigi ^_^

I used to be able to take a stock off him semi-reliably.
Don't think I could anymore, though, since he's gotten much better. 25th at EVO is a great result for him (even taking a game off chu the last time around)

Melee is a really fun game to watch. I wish it had higher quality casting, though

Does the online matching system not have any sort of MMR?

It supposedly does, but if I play for an hour or so I will run into at least a few people who I can two stock and a couple who are going to be two stocking me. Most matches seem to be around the 70-30 split for who is winning.

Other problem is lack of characters you get to play. Easily 50% of all matches are one of ten characters.

Having 10 characters take up 50% of what's being played is really good for a fighting game. Melee has 13 characters you can play in tournament and not get laughed at for playing, and that's huge.

That's a dumb question.

BROseidon · Post Post #82 (isolation #22) » Mon Jul 27, 2015 12:42 am

Brawl doesn't have a niche.

It's a "fun party game" that isn't actually fun because the design choices used to make it anti-competitive also made the game unfun for everyone.

BROseidon · Post Post #83 (isolation #23) » Mon Jul 27, 2015 12:43 am

Like play Sm4sh or melee as the party game. You'll still have more fun.

Apparently the current project m patch is amazing, and had that been made instead of brawl, melee would have died

BROseidon · Post Post #93 (isolation #25) » Mon Jul 27, 2015 2:59 pm

Project M takes everything that was super good about Melee, makes it more accessible, and then applies better balance.

Major improvements over the last game and while I have yet to touch adventure mode (waiting for a friend), what I did play thus far feels really good. And I’m happy unlocking all the fighters isn’t such a hassle.

But is wavedashing back?
