unfounded revenge/smashing song of praise lol a lot of the music that won isn't even near the best on the level (ocarina of time medley? really?)

next is obviously toon link. i like how the backroom is doing all of the higher tiered characters first and can't wait for "next weeks character is another low tiered veteran character the backroom doesn't really care about" near the end

Best: Ike's Theme Worst: Power-Hungry Fool

I use Y just like in melee. I actually realized i never use X for jumping so I switched it to grab and can now not only grab faster than before but it also makes it easier to short hop-air dodge too. I use Z to shield as it's much faster and more precise than using the analog shoulder buttons...

best: boss theme medley (though so many are great) worst: forest area

darth marth of course (that's the red one)

best: balloon trip worst: shin onigashima (runner up to the melee track which brings back bad memories)

Best: Title (Kid Icarus) Worst: 8-bit Medley

You aren't addressing my argument. I'm not saying that most of the new players are going to go pro or even attempt to, but I am saying that with such a large base of people playing the game, there are going to be some that want to do it competitively. You state that because of the defensive...

best: ricco harbor worst: new smb theme

I totally agree with your distinction between casual and competitive players, Yuna and how to be competitive you have to put in a greater amount of time and effort. I also see how brawl is less competitive in a traditional sense than other fighting games. However, I still don't see how the...

If smash balls were used competitively nobody would use any character but lucas. Not only is he good anyway, but he can chase and break the smash ball easier than any other character from a long distance with pk thunder, which then leads into his final smash that is nearly impossible to dodge...

This is due to the newness. The characters that have the best camping options will almost certainly be top tier as there will be no way for others to get in on them. As always, however, a person who's mastered timing and spacing will be able to beat someone with less skill even with a weaker...

Does it really matter that melee pros don't find brawl competitive? I mean it seems like there are a lot of new players being attracted to (and doing well in) the brawl tournament scene. These people seem to like competitive brawl on its own merits and aren't just doing it because melee isn't...

no idea, even if it's made it might not be sakurai heading the project so it's too early to speculate i can say without a doubt though i will not buy ssb4 if it has random tripping. it's such a terrible game mechanic, for it not to be removed from the sequel would be a pretty major design flaw
