But he isn't that large. He's tall but thin and has a godlike crouch. He's vulnerable in the air. But not helpless. If he's able to go high and set up explosives to cover his descent it's not easy to juggle him. I think people have known how to abuse his disadvantage. Hurts disadvantage is more...

I suppose that makes sense. I just think the invitational has some top players who need to get on with learning to deal with Steve. I don't like Steve but I'm more annoyed by people still not having the matchup down and/or a solid counterpick for dealing with him if their particular matchup is...

It's a shame they didn't throw a Steve player in there instead of Hungrybox.

Understandable, but perhaps someone could do all that for you while you just provide the raw material? I suppose that if it was posted on reddit it would just get washed away with the ceaseless discharge. Unfortunately I do not have the skills and equipment (or time, being old and having stuff...

This step by step analysis is really good. I hope you have somewhere else where you are posting it too since the audience here is pretty small albeit appreciative. It could function as a basis for a youtube video too. It's better than anything else that's out there at the moment. This has been...

Oh definitely. Solid disadvantage. Doesn't take uncecessary damage either.

Yes, please do. I thought Hurt had a really good shot at taking this tournament. In my opinion his Snake plays like a more optimized and technical version of Ally's. He's different from Ally of course. But still has more in common with Ally than other Snakes like Appolokage, MVD, Alandiss. The...

I think playing more than one character is made a thing by some of the top 5 characters being near unbeatable for a lot of the cast. Steve and Sonic in particular, what are you supposed to do vs Acola or Sonix if your main gets destroyed? Without these top characters then almost all players...

Brawl DDD also had a way more useful dair than his current. Also think the projectiles he had in brawl were arguably better but not completely sure. Definitely a far superior character irregardless of chains grab though. Edit: Nah the brawl projectiles were definitely better, they were...

I don't think GnW is simple. Fairly easy to play sure, but he has a very varied moveset. He's got plenty of unique moves. This is not the case with Corrin. Her bair, pin, and dragonfang shot are not quite vanilla but the rest of her kit is very traditional. I guess I think that there's more...

I would like to object saying that Corrins meta can evolve in response to more developed counterplay. But I don't think it can. She's too simple.

Dunno man. Corrin is not a difficult character to learn, in fact I think she's among the easiest characters, and Sparg0 is an elite swordbro. I'm sure his Corrin will improve over time if he sticks to it, but not drastically.

What you are saying about Aegis seems so obvious. I don't really get why no one really applies it. The essence you describe is something I thought about too. Plus players do not just not play like that, they will also stay Pyra in neutral, sometimes for ages, seemingly due to some unwarranted...

Well yeah. That'd be interesting. I also think so. Can't really say why. Other than that there are and have been several very different flavors of Aegis, we had Cosmos way back, his Aegis was sort of a mess, I like that he tried to push Mythra's potential but I think he couldn't quite keep up...

Brawl Ganondorf has a winning matchup? Edit: I mean to say "even" not "winning"
