People feel the need to make "Brawl is not Melee" topics because other people are trying to make Brawl INTO Melee. I personally think you guys should try everything in Brawl before deciding it is not fit for tournament play... I mean wasn't items initially banned because you could hit a container and it'd explode and KO you? And now, the explosive containers can be turned off, are marked, AND require like a dozen hits!
