    [Meta] I'm sure you've been wondering what happened to the forums...

    Whatever makes the site stop crashing [either simply riding this out if it seems to have passed or switching].

    Brawl Minus 4.0b is here!

    Well, sort of. The point of setting up arrows in between stocks is to augment TL's ability to gimp. If they last 15 seconds, you either need to set them up for an edgeguard in the next 15 seconds [not impossible] or else spend time that you could spend edgeguarding setting up arrows. Toon...

    Brawl Minus 4.0b is here!

    I'd usually set them up during MMMs between stocks actually... after the KO, set an arrow on the ledge, and then deal with remembering to count arrows [if I fire 3, I either fire a fourth and lose the ledge arrow or make do without arrows temporarily]. Tink can still do it I guess, but now it...

    The real downside is that they no longer can be used effectively for edgeguarding... planting them on the ledge or just below it was quite satisfying, and now that is pretty useless.

    Brawl Minus 4.0b Official Tournament ruleset!

    ROB hovering is only questionably banned unless ROB's fuel works differently in this game [in Brawl and Smash 4, it only recharges on the ground, so this can't happen forever]. One way to cover all of these rules at once [including the ROB thing] is the Brawl anti-scrooging rule: no player may...

    Brawl Minus 4.0b Official Tournament ruleset!

    Lylat Cruise as a starter over Fountain of Dreams for a more unique layout [is my vote]. The counterpick list seems to feature several very small stages, but few large ones (Warioland, Yoshi's Melee, Lavendar Town are all quite small, Castle Siege is smallish, Yoshi's Island Brawl is medium...

    Does that mean flying slam is or isn't techable? Is being grounded guaranteed or not?

    Fun fact: Falco's first hit reflector combos into the dragging part of reflector on Bowser at low percents [except for maybe the farthest hit away from Falco], so reflector -> any grounded A-attack is guaranteed at low percents. Random question: Can you tech Royal Rampage dthrow? Can you tech...

    Some Squirtle main needs to play me when I'm able to play again... I always guessed Squirtle was underwhelming myself, but purely from knowing no good Squirtles and being unable to effectively play him, rather than actually knowing he was good/bad [that is, I held the vague opinion he was...

    The Gravity of the Situation: Gravity and Minus 4.0b

    Definitely down for a hitlag reduction. The SDI possible on Falcon's knee is absurd [hilarious, but absurd]. If by Melee Roy you mean his tippers, yeah that level is kinda sad [it's almost as bad as Charizard sourspot fair, lol]. I think finding out about what the community wants to play is...

    The Gravity of the Situation: Gravity and Minus 4.0b

    A 0-40% combo with medium know-how seems normal? Sure, then lower the gravity again. Right now, a 0-death combo as Falcon while never really grinding him and being pretty bad at his Melee and PM forms, I've done more than once, and from 30-death seems pretty frequent [almost routine]. Having...

    Brawl Minus 4.0b Bug Report Thread

    Not a glitch, just very annoying... unless... try doing double quick attack straight up, away from the stage, while on the ledge, then drift offstage a little and drift to ledge... if THAT doesn't grab ledge [while Pikachu is blinking in special fall], that's a glitch. If you refer to Pikachu...

    Brawl Minus 4.0b is here!

    The other half of the problem is that it's hard to actually figure out cool effects to put on character's taunts... Falco got the mode switch on his taunt because it gives people fast AND slow lasers, but it's very arguably non-intuitive, and frankly, I can't think of any cool effects to put on...

    The Gravity of the Situation: Gravity and Minus 4.0b

    You do realize that literally the entire time I've been saying "Go ahead and make the hitstun lower, just revert the ******* gravity," the entire time, right? To everyone defending the new gravity: STOP TRYING TO STATE THE NEW GRAVITY AND NEW HITSTUN ARE A COUPLE TO BE COMPARED TO THE OLD...

    The Gravity of the Situation: Gravity and Minus 4.0b

    Frankly, if you want a faster game, tone the punishes down. When the punish game gets too extreme, this happens (video is of one match, but if you want to watch it, go ahead...): Unless you literally mean you want people to move faster, but not the game to progress faster, at which point I...

    The Gravity of the Situation: Gravity and Minus 4.0b

    By prayer-based, I meant you had to really, really hope they mess up... very similar to how in Fox vs Sheik in Melee, vs the best reaction tech-chasing Sheiks, once grabbed, Fox can mash buttons (to escape the grab, which may not even work at any if the Sheik player does an immediate throw) or...

    The Gravity of the Situation: Gravity and Minus 4.0b

    ... I'm saying I think how strong the combo game is should be toned down by removing the gravity change and leaving the hitstun change... Falcon has crazy stuff still regardless, but parts of the cast are just more awkward and you'll have to really mess with a lot of things that make the game a...
