An Idea For A Simple Fun Melee Mod: Melee Rainbow Edition

[MarkMotxo]

Here's the idea, like a said in the title it's simple.

Change the jump refresh system in melee so that instead of everyone having two jumps, all the characters will have four jumps or double the amount of jumps as in regular melee.

Also, when it comes to up-b's and air-dodges, all characters will have the ability to jump just one more time after performing these moves -- except if they've already jumped four times, then they will not be able jump again and instead will fall like in the regular melee.

If this were to happen I think a new interesting meta game could develop where lots of offstage battles and vertical spacing could take place. Character viability would look much different and unlike other mods where imbalance becomes a huge issue, this mod would preserve melee's inherent balance (in a sense) because it is a system change, rather than character specific changes.

Anyway, If anyone reading this knows how to mod melee, I think this would be pretty straightforward to do and could be a lot of fun to play.

Cheers.

Puff would just stall even more with more jumps lmaooo

Hungrybox would have won EVO...

Why are you people talking about puff, where additional jumps aren't all that important? (That pink ball has all the jumps it needs)
And then there is that one character... I'll give a few hints: has a horribly short recovery right now, is gimped really easy (and that's considered one of his biggest drawbacks over a similar character) and his mid air jump is the largest one available. Hell, that change probably enables ridiculous shines of the top starting from ground level...
How could Falco not be #1 in this mode? :D

I would totally be down playing this with 4 friends and just crying with laughter.
Falco only, P S

You might want to go shout this out to the Melee Workshop if you want to learn how to make something like this.

Yeah Falco combos would be hella broken, but only if your opponent didn't jump out all the way to the ceiling.
