Anyway, the scene is seriously blowing the fuck up. Been playing with the Dallas crew pretty fiercely for the past 2 months. Silentwolf came down for a tournament about a month ago and pretty much took all our money lol. Pretty cool to see Ken getting back into the groove, and KDJ is probably my favorite smash player of all time. |

![]() I don't know why people still cling to Melee.
If you ABSOLUTELY hate Brawl so much, the community should coalesce behind one of the more Melee-like hacked versions of Brawl that fixes problems that Brawl introduced while retaining the benefits that come with Brawl. And we'll be getting a new official Smash Bros. soon, and they've already explicitly said that they aim to bring Smash back "down" to be more Melee-like. Why not play the N64 game instead? The community probably just wants to keep Pikachu fans down. That's it.

For marth for instance, a forward dash then wavedash backward to forward smash is pretty much one of marth's deadliest forms of mind games when sweet spotted which pretty much happens naturally because of the spacing it provides. The mind games and spacing potential that wavedashing allows cannot be replicated by a dodge roll. It's simply too slow and too easy to predict for someone to follow up with a grab to combo etc. Wavedashing backward to forward dash to grab-upthrow to rest for jigglypuff on certain characters is amazingly rewarding (i'm a jigglypuff main). It's all about the mind games man. The only way to really get into the scene and get down all the technicalities of the game is to find local competitive smashers. Your best bet is smashboards. Melee players notoriously get together and play all the time. We have get togethers of upwards to 20 people with 8 tv's at my friends house 4-5 times a week. That's because you only semi-seriously played brawl. A game that rewards defensive play and caters to a much much much more casual gamer. |

![]() Nope. I don't see people that way at all and none of the competitive smashers I play with really do either. I think that's called a preconceived notion bro.

You really just have no idea :\ My opposition to clinging to Melee is, as I mentioned before, that there are patches for Brawl that bring back the things people like about Melee while cutting the shit that no one likes. Brawl may not be unequivocally better than Melee, but patched Brawl definitely is. Even the awful wavedash bug in the physics engine that makes no sense at all can be added back to Brawl if you want it. On top of this, characters can be re-balanced as necessary, knocking down characters who might be seen as unfair and bringing up characters who no one would ever choose to play as due to them sucking. ps korny, you're incredibly transparent. You didn't explicitly say "u suck because u r dirty casual", but that was CLEARLY the tone of your response to me.

If you're referring to project M for the patches, well, that's project M. You can make a game as similar to melee as you want, but it's just not melee. |

all of the really reworked characters are boring/stupid and it still rewards really defensive play

![]() I undersand the spacing aspect and the mindgames, it's just something I never learned how to actually do. xD
I never went to a super competitive melee event like I have for Brawl. I've done melee locals, but I don't think anyone there knew how to wavedash either.

So because I was a middle-of-the-road-at-best Pikachu player, that means that I'm a dirty casual player who only knows Brawl because Brawl will coddle my widdle baby casual player sensibilities. Ok.
