also pound 4 makes less sense for WC smashers to go to
wc is like 50% of melee now.
Yes, this makes me sad. I mean I play all four games now (smash 64 and Brawl + included) and I find it sickening when I go to Brawl tournaments and just see loads of players who are no offense, horrible. EC is just filled Brawl scrubs who have no idea what they are talking about and for the most part, Melee veterans are the ones making money off of Brawl.

Fatal?
Noodles
Are all good Melee players and Noodles has potential. Fatal is a giant question mark but I've seen him play Melee at the last DM Brawl tourney ran by Noodles and he can hold his own and isn't uber scrub. That's what makes Brawl boring...a lot of players are just so bad. It's really funny when players like DJ Nintendo, Alukard, Cort, and PC Chris who don't even play the game can pick it up and destroy people who play it on a regular basis. That's case and point as to why Melee > Brawl as a competitive fighter. There is nothing else to argue.
I honestly found Brawl to be at least a good 30% of the reason why I've gotten better at Melee. Playing Brawl really FORCES you to be more patient and wait for your opponent to make the first move. The game is nothing but a quick hit and reset game. Characters like ZSS and Sheik can combo but for the most part it's "let me wait for you to do something...punish you....and rinse and repeat." The only difference between melee and brawl is technical skill, speed, and the ability to link moves together and easier DI in Brawl.
meh, this is me rambling but
Melee > Smash 64 > Brawl + > Brawl
Sometimes I honestly debate this though... Melee > Smash 64
Smash 64 brings back so many memories for me. <3
