yea you know yayo, I suck really bad. I don't really care though. nothing to prove to anyone. just because I'm good at melee doesnt mean ill be good at brawl. But oh wait... I think out of all the pros, my style should be the best to adapt to brawl. I mean... I didnt start wavedashing until let's see... after I won my first like 15 tournaments. :dizzy:

Wavedashing is a pretty easy habit to get out of though. So I dunno what you're getting at.

You are too harsh on yourself. I believe you have the competence to be good at brawl but not the best, you are overexaggerating.

Well, I'll vote for Azen>Kirk. Did this 12-5 to Azen thing happen? Either way, Azen's probably better. Ken's quite possibly better than both, but I want videos :p

I don't mind, since anyone who takes fighting games seriously makes fun of him for being the best melee player in the world.

If I made thousands of dollars in a game, I wouldn't really care about who made fun of me. I doubt ken does either.

If I remember correctly, I saw an episode of MTV True Life where an MLG player was happy to make something below minimum wage...

For some clarification, the first time I played Azen, he won 12 matches to my 5 wins. The next time I played him, it was 7 matches to 6. I got better since the last time I played him.

I did play Ken at one point, though I cannont say I remember how many wins/losses we had, as I didn't keep track. He was overall beating me, but we didn't have that many Ike dittos IIRC. If I play him again I'd like to see how more Ike dittos turn out.

Right now I vote Kirk, it is very early to tell for sure but the improvement from his first fights with Azen to the newer ones is what's behind my reasoning... he is getting better.

Can't wait to start "brawling" myself, it's like a week away now.

We will all know soon enough, we just have to wait for a tournament that he is in to start.

Ken is the only person I'm allowing votes for with no videos, because he is Ken. I have no doubt that he will be good, it's just that I don't think he will be as good at Brawl as he was at Melee.

Well I personally think he will be better since in vids of him playing melee, his marth was not showy with lots of wavedashing. Mew2king is an amazing marth player in melee, his speed was like unrivaled but he wavedashed alot more so as Ken said he won't have to adapt as much as other pros, but you can't tell who the best will be for now.

True enough, we have to wait a few months after the U.S. release before we can actually tell who is going to be pro. Who knows? The best Ike in the world might not even have the game yet.

Erm, I'd have to Kirk, even though I don't even think he's that good, he's the only one with vids of Ike that don't suck.

Bears are Scary seems pretty confident in himself, I wanna see some vids of him.

I think this all just shows the power of having written a guide and having a regularly updated youtube channel. What with Azen having the better record against Kirk, having more generic 'experience' and videos of him beating other 'good' players like Chillindude.

I'd have to give my vote to Azen right now. He is agressive and edgeguards like a beast. Kirk is a **** close second though. After watching the matches on youtube I can see Kirk over taking Azen soon enough.
