    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Melee still kind of was an accident and a lot of what you state is pretty true. The whole Melee was an accident was a phrase that has been around ever since its inception into the fighting game community. Remember back in the 2000s on sites like Shoryuken.com how people would just bash Melee...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    You're right when it comes to not being a serious issue, but the whole reputation and as I've stated in the paragraph were based on an earlier interpretation of the game. It once devoured the whole meta at a point, shields still are much better in this game than Brawl even with the patches, but...

    Is Ryu candidate for top tier?

    Good enough reasonings, although as for my counterpoints to the Olimar Matchup. The hitlag can be a liability as Ryu's forward air or any of his attacks in general is not something you want to be activated for a long time and can punish heavily. Olimar is at kill percent or has to start worrying...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Biggest reason is shield health. In Brawl you couldn't just run up shield and take constant powerful hits to the level of smash 4. The fact that shields recharge make shield breaking moves have less utility because now they are just situational and require heavy reads to even get shield breaks...

    Is Ryu candidate for top tier?

    Unlike Captain Falcon he has just bat**** priority moves that he can space with or can be the startup of a combo, moves that bypass projectiles (better have a multihit projectile because Ryu squashes nearly any projectile character that relies on 1 single hit projectile), and I would not really...

    Official Character Competitive Impressions - Tourneys, Tiers, Theories, Tactics

    Honestly this does make sense from a competitive aspect, but really, what other fighting game has this much individuality, recognition, personality, unique traits in so many characters? No other fighting game in existence can even compare to the individuality and stay so close to their...

    Is Ryu candidate for top tier?

    Yes, He is certainly better than Luigi who has an impressive and deadly combo game, but has better control than Luigi, much more deadlier up b, flat out dominating anti air game, and fantastic footsie game. I'd say overall he is just top tier. He manages to pretty much destroy or have strong...

    Will Ryu always be good?

    Ryu is guaranteed to nearly always be good. Unlike characters such as Sheik, Rosalina & Luma, or Diddy Kong he won't suffer from just one or two big nerfs to some moves. He is literally a brute mother****ing brawler. Do you think he'll suffer if he gets nerfed? He's literally just that good in...

    How do you get that strong up tilt to shoryuken combo done?

    I definitely did not know of this, very interesting information. Ryu's technicalities only get more deeper the more I play as him and learn. Definitely my favorite character in Smash Bros of all time. He barely disappoints.

    Signing in by email, and I still do remember my username , as well as my very safe and random passwords too! I like to have a username that isn't unique and no profile picture; I am not an expressive person.

    How do you get that strong up tilt to shoryuken combo done?

    Very great idea, I forgot about negative edge, this would help a lot since I can do the input in advance and have a bit more time to prepare instead of that very awkward transition from holding a upwards then sliding over to the very bottom and then proeeding to move to the corner and back to...

    Should Smash be community based?

    Well it really depends on what these things are. Sakurai as we know wants to keep a balance between competitive and the masses, and the points of views can be convoluted as more factors are taken into account. Either way if you want community input or any of Smash to be "community based"...

    How do you get that strong up tilt to shoryuken combo done?

    Ehh, it's not really tap jump which I have disabled by the way, but more of just the fact you have to hold a then proceed to immediately to that shoryuken. I can easily do light up tilts to shoryuken because of c stick, but that isn't an option and when you're moving all the way down there it's...

    Most technical character?

    Most Technical? Undoubtably the mighty master of combos Ryu. Personally here's my list of what I believe are characters that are the most technical characters and require some form of technical skill in order to be proficient with them (greatest to least)...

    Should Smash be community based?

    I am going to state some very important points on why Smash will have trouble being community based. Its demographics: Look, Smash Bros as a fighting game is THE MOST diverse fighting game there is. And its audiences are the most diverse and come from more places than you'd ever find. For one...
