Super Smash Brothers Brawl

Well it's not like you were specifically directing it to someone. Besides, i know there's nothing i can say that can make you think otherwise to certain items being fair or not.

You enjoy playing smash for different reasons than I. Your style of playing smash reminds me of the little kids style. ( I mean no offense by this). Little kids style in the sense that when a little kid gets this game he's going to play it with items on because the thought of taking them off would be boring. Very understandable. I see it everytime i go to one of my little cousins house while they're playing the game. I understand that they play the game with items because the chaos of it is what gives them a good laugh and a fun time.

When I play super smash brothers, I simple play to see who is better. I play for what is in my opinion, the REAL competition. A competition with no randomness. A straight to the point battle to see who can display greater tactics with just the use of their character. Pure combat. Nothing else. Winning that way makes me feel a whole lot more accomplished knowing that either A. Each life my opponent lost was taken away because of the way i used my character to take his life without the use of a foreign object, Or B. My opponent killed himself (when you kill yourself it's your own fault you couldn't prevent it). Either way the winner of the match wins without his opponent to have the ability to say "well if you hadn't gottent this item the match could've been different" and so on and so on.

The point is, in a determination of true skill our opinions are always going to be different. I consider pure combat skills to be the determining factor, and you consider the ability to be able to do both the determining factor.
