The problem with the balance in melee was that the game seemed to have marth, and the 3-4 characters that had a relatively good match up against marth. the 64 version did not have this same one character to beat sort of identity, and I think thats a good thing. What we can do now is hope the neither mk nor snake turn out to create this same situation for brawl. No one wants to go to a tournament that is mostly one character, and play against nothing but him all afternoon, as was getting to be the issue with melee.

I had a character in diablo 2 named sixpack for no real reason, and when I went to make a barbarian, he was 2 times the man of my little paladin. Played that character more, and the name stuck

Dont mean to be a pain or anything, but the link the the description should be reviewed by an admin for possible linkage against the rules of the site. Nice run though, weak yes vote for weird rules.

The NES version is the only hope for a halfway optimized run. There is so much variability in the SNES version, that optimizing the motions will slowly drive you insane.

Justification bias. The tiers are based on what wins tournaments, and the tournaments are populated by people who read the charts (at least somewhat). It makes the tiers look right even when they are wrong.

Or would tournament results tell you what characters the better players chose to play? The bottom line is that discussing what characters are "good" in brawl is pointless, because better players will win games, even if their choice isn't top "tier". Remember that the people who make charts like that are the exact type of people who will spend more time analyzing the game then actually practicing and getting good. You will even see posts every now and again by one of them lamenting a loss to someone who chose a "bad" character and beat them.

The trouble is, basing it on computers would only tell you about how well the AI plays characters. The AI does not do some of the tricks needed to make snake and diddy strong, so it would produce no useful data. It is a chart that totally ignores play style and skill, and ignores the fact that some characters play better on some maps then others. The assumption is that everyone plays the same way, and that all matches must be played on the same stage. Only furthering the observation that smash boards is populated by "professionals" who assume that everyone plays the same way they do, and impressionable idiots.

I had one figured out to the starting music to super C, but I thought of that when I was 9, so it was constructed mostly of bad words and racial slurs.

this might even be a good time to put our collective foot down on multi-runs... what is awesome in 2 and fun in 4 might not be enjoyable in 6.

Voting no because of the lack of colored dinosaurs.

I have the same name as a famous CS:S player. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyle_Miller all google results seem to have to do with him I have also met 3 others with my exact name in person. One even went to my high school, which caused endless confusion when they tried to suspend me for something he did.

It wont tell us anything interesting, quickly. a 6 body interaction will be so unclean that results will be hopelessly blurred; even once we get a years worth of data. The real money is waiting for the ILC, e+ e- reaction FTW.

Yeah, it will be special. Don't be misled by other people who try to tell you the otherwise without ever seeing my run.
doesn't it have several obsoleted room strategies? What is special about an un-published, obsoleted run?
