And the best option for certain characters is always going to be to stall against a good Mario player. Sorry about that. Sent you a message about it.

Glyph, why would I risk going for a grab when I can stall out Metal Mario? The Mario main I play against is crazy good at sidestep dodging and predicting his opponents. I've played Falcon against him enough to see that keeping away is always the better option. Stalling should never be...

Guess we just have to disagree on this, Glyph. As for Falcon's chainthrow on MM, it's too risky to go for since you're likely to get dodged and smashed, and even if you do land it, it's very easy to mess up and let Mario get free. NEWB, I don't have any other problems with Minus except the...

So if a move is only OP against a few characters who would otherwise have a fair chance, it's not unbalanced? Seriously? The main reason I want the Metal Cap gone is because it frequently stalls matches. Still waiting on reasons other than "novelty" to keep the Metal Cap in... Might as well...

Whatever happened to this official stance on taunts, anyway? Mario's Metal Cap goes directly against it. Source: http://www.smashmods.com/forum/thread-6 ... #pid158086

I wasn't calling Metal Mario himself slow and campy. I was referring to how he encourages the defending player to make the match slow and campy by camping on the spawn platform and running away from him until the Metal wears off. Those are all examples of zoning, which are not time-limited. The...

Accidentally double-posted, ignore this post.

Obviously, yeah. You might be surprised. All it takes is one strong Smash or B-Air to get a significantly damaged opponent far enough away for you to be safe enough to don the Cap. In your suggested setup? Yeah, sounds about right in a 4 stock, 4-8 minute match. I maintain that a game should...

Anybody else want slow and campy gameplay in Minus? Anyone? In what other matchup is there regularly a period where one player should play Keep Away for a set amount of time? I can't think of any. Obviously, any character who can chaingrab or otherwise lock Metal Mario has a big advantage...

This is very sad news for me, since my old PC can't run Dolphin. :( Nonetheless, I'll get a PC that can eventually. How do you use Dolphin to play online without using Nintendo WFC? Is the connection just as good or better? Can a Wii Remote be connected to a PC? I have a Mayflash GC -> Wii...

Not having a viable option against a character except "Keep Away" is definitely a bad thing for a fast-paced fighter that rewards aggressive gameplay. Whoever is the most skilled should be setting the pace of a match, but even a "C" grade player is probably going to KO a grade "A" player at...

Thanks to WastedCrits, SmilinDeth, and Glyph for testing my (Metal) Mario. However, I think I didn't really play the best example of Mario last night. My friend's Mario is significantly better overall... I use F-Air MUCH more often than he does, and he rarely uses FLUDD like I do. His game is...

No rush! I know it takes longer to sort through mine since I send in so many at once.

I'm available for online matches now if anyone's game. I'll be playing (Metal) Mario. If you used my altered RSBE01.gct for MM practice: Don't forget to switch back, or you'll desync online. I'll be in the brawlminus.tk/chat

Got any links to video of someone making use of her new buffs?

I sent you 70-something replays over on smashmods.com. Sorry I don't have time to sort them! If I find time later, I'll tell you the date/time stamps of the good ones.

I think I've explained adequately what I find overpowered and annoying about Mario and his Metal Cap. It doesn't matter if other characters are as good or not while metal, because they can only attain that state via the Metal Box (and who plays with items on?). Changing the nature of the Metal...

No, I'll have to try that. Thanks. Grade "A" players are able to time their smashes at least as well as level 9 CPUs do. The only thing the CPU does frequently that a human can't do as well is perfect shield a lot.

What bugs me about my friend who mains Mario is how he uses the Metal Cap as a crutch when he doesn't need it. If he didn't use the Metal Cap, we would be trading wins very evenly. Unfortunately, he does abuse the Cap, and my Falcon and Zelda are put at a severe disadvantage just because of...

BTW, I think a big reason why many of you don't know how OP Mario is against certain characters is the simple fact that you don't get to play against him often. Maybe you don't even know a Mario main? The Mario CPU AI rarely uses Side Taunt, and it's too much trouble to get them to pick up Metal...
