So if Ally gets very sick (I don't wish it on him, or anyone!) before MLG Orlando, and Metaknight takes 1, 2, 3, because of the removal of one player then we can ban MK?

Metaknight in Brawl, lolol. Also, for Melee comparison, we've banned numerous stages more or less because Fox is ****ing imba on them. I'm not talking about Corneria in the latest ruleset; I'm talking about Peach's Castle, Yoshi's Island (Pipes), etc. So individual characters CAN affect the...

I have a question about Akuma in Super Turbo. I'm being serious and not trolling, but I don't know too much about SF, so sorry if the answer is obvious or something. So if his air fireball is the primary reason that Akuma is broken, why didn't they simply ban the move? It's very discrete...

Right, but Melee Fox has disadvantages too. He can be combo'd and edgeguarded. MK has no serious disadvantages when he plays sufficiently gay.

Here's a comparison. Imagine Melee Fox has five jumps, shuttle loop instead of firefox, and can control the angle of Fox illusion like MK can with drill rush. Is that ban-worthy? If you answer no, think about this question. If you are playing to win, how can you possibly justify NOT playing Fox?

I mean, I saw a lot of these matches, and you could argue that the metagame hasn't progressed very far. As a reminder, here's that Mango clip everyone went nuts over: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__TTutwPDmU And here's a match from an older tournament...

Well, I play a lot of Snake, so I know that for one he is very good on Pirate Ship. Sometimes you can forward smash one way, and have a cannonball come another way, so the opponent has nowhere to go and gets hit by something really powerful. This also works at Halberd, but can be harder to do...

Yeah, Brawl is definitely more tactical than Melee for these reasons. I agree. Melee is only tech and you just need to combo well with Falco/Falcon/Fox to win. Brawl is a far more tactical game with Falco's camping, Metaknights (over)utilizing ledge invincibility, and Wario "air camping."...

I have high hopes for SSB4, and hope it will be a very good game. I assume that it will follow in Brawl's footsteps and continue to make improvements that it made from Melee's gameplay. For example, tripping made the game more fun. Adding in a random element that happens when you perform...

I like Brawl a lot, but there are also a lot of characters I hate. Worst of all is definitely Tabuu though. I know he's the final boss, but he is way too difficult to fight. His attacks kill instantly, and I couldn't block some of them even though I can block almost everything my friends try...

Yes, I play Brawl competitively. Whenever I play with my friends it is a competition to see who can win without being cheap or n00bish. One of my friends plays Ike and is a little better than me, because Ike's forward smash is a little more powerful than Snake's. I mean, he's being a little...

Well, first I'll begin by saying that this is an excellent thread that certainly warrants being in a forum entitled "Tactical" discussion, and certainly deserves to last four pages without being instantly closed by anyone of authority on SWF who even skims over the title. That being said...
