I mentioned that I also play Falco and Ganondorf. If you're not going to take the time to read my posts in their entirety, there's no point to me writing them. I am aware that Sonic can move. Most characters can move. There's no need to be obtuse here, I know that Sonic is extremely fast and...

I figured it would be too on-the-nose to put a /s on the end of my post. I figured the other complaints (meta knight not being a sword dispenser, pichu existing) would be enough sarcasm. But yeah, that's my point. I don't see why this discussion continually only happens around Sonic. If you...

It's already avoidable, and that change completely misses the problem everyone seems to have with it. That just changes it from a KO move to a setup move for a much less lethal KO move. Why not make his forward throw launch at a higher angle, to allow the opponent to recover higher? That allows...

Sonic's Dair isn't being turned into a meteor. It is a meteor in 4.0b, also. I know that not everyone understands DI or SDI. That's not any fault of the game or its developers. If people don't want to get combo'd relentlessly, they should learn it. (In every smash game.) 1. It's not easy to...

Biased against Olimar? I don't see why. Biased towards Sonic? Maybe, but not excessively I think. I play him only slightly more than I play Peach, Ganondorf, Lucario, Meta Knight, Dedede, Falco, Zelda, Charizard, and Sheik. If it's not here, where is it? You wanted me to discuss what I thought...

I don't constantly complain about Falcon because there's nothing actually wrong with the character. He frustrates me, but any complaints I have about him are honestly rather petty. I can't think of a character in this game that is too strong to be balanced. Just one character who annoys me by...

Man, I leave for a couple months and you people are still whining about Sonic. The character is fine. If you don't want to get dive kicked at the ledge, don't put yourself in situations where it's possible. You can DI his throws, SDI out of Nair, whatever you have to do. It's going to work...

If I recall correctly, the Jigglypuff crown is a model edit, not just a texture hack. There are some extra steps to installing those, though I forget what they are. (Brawl Vault might be able to help you?)

Dang, I'll be traveling on the 26th. Will anyone be recording the matches? I'd like to watch the final, at least.

I think the move is fine, though I think it'd be great if it did more shield damage. Not enough to instantly break the average shield, of course. If nothing else, it'll force many opponents up and over the gandouken if their shield is low enough, since spot dodging it is difficult or impossible...

Something that might be relevant: my tournaments have all been run with the timer turned off. The idea is that no amount of stalling will ever win you the game, so nobody ever does it. (Other than mind games at the ledge that have a purpose.) Nobody just runs around to waste time.

It's only a meteor, fortunately. You can tap jump or up-B immediately and it won't do too much unless you're already very deep. It's pretty handy for controlling movement offstage though. A standard tool for me is Boost offstage, chuck a spring at them, then Dair to ledge to try to get them as...

Nobody buys Brawl or a Wii anymore without intending to mod it. Nintendo is not only leaving money on the table, but burning the table.

My mother always told me that if you don't have anything nice to say, you shouldn't say anything at all. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A more complete reply: As a friend of several members of the ex-PMDT, I can...

At first I was confused, and then I realized I mis-wrote. I meant high risk high reward. Fun Bowser trick: Aerial Royal Rampage combos into down-B, and then you can chase people around by alternating those unless they're a very short character. (Fox, Squirtle, Jigglypuff, Kirby, Olimar.)
