My brother is probably one of the only people I've ever gotten angry over losing to, to a point where I just pause and exit the match. I NEVER do that.
My brother taught me how to edgehog. I thought it was the cheapest thing I'd ever seen the first time he did it to me.

Haha, I've never really gotten that into it. Whenever me and my cousins are on vacation we'll buy one of the preconstructed decks and play with that for the week, but I wouldn't be opposed to getting more serious, seems kinda expensive though...

So I've decided to stop playing Brawl...it really is a horrible game.
I played Melee today in Watertown with Pipe, (yes, I hung out with Pipe today!) Awsmsean, and Samikay and realized that Melee truly is a better game than Brawl. People who are good at Melee and know what they are talking about in terms of smash brothers think Melee is better....people who are not as good in Melee like Brawl better because they see Brawl as a chance to get noticed as a "good smasher." People argue the fact that Melee is simply all technical skill and memorizing combos. In a sense, that is true but it definitely takes much more skill to pay attention to a faster pace game, DI in a game where its not as simple, be more careful when recovering to the stage to sweet spot it, learn what moves work on what characters and soooo much more.
I'll be the first person to admit that I am not GREAT at Melee, I am definitely not. The fact is though, there is just so much more depth and things to learn from playing Melee as opposed to Brawl. Any smasher can simply pickup Brawl and within a day or two become a solid player. Not a GREAT player, but solid. Thats just sad because there is no development in playing the game...its just laid out on the table for you.
When you watch a Brawl match its really really boring. The pace is slow, they all look the EXACT same, and the intensity is gone. When you watch a melee battle its pretty intense. When I was at Southern two semesters ago (before Brawl came out) between classes I would go to the library and watch Melee footage to learn things and see what the best players out there do, what attacks they use against whom, etc etc. I've probably watched a total of maybe 10 Brawl matches online on youtube, they are beyond boring. We all know watching Melee matches is much more intense.
Deep in our hearts we all know Brawl revolves around two things:
-Camping
-Shileding then punishing.
So I'm basically probably not going to be competing anymore...there is no point in it. Brawl was never meant to be a competitive game. By adding in "four ways to play!", a story mode, final smashes, slower game play, and the most broken defense in any smash brothers game there is no way Brawl was intended on being a competitive game. Is it fun? Yes. Is it the new game to play? Yes. In fact, I kind of like it that way. I want to play smash now...just for fun. No tournaments....no proving whos the best!....or anything of the sort. I just want to play Melee and have fun. I never devoted any time to Melee because I wanted to not "waste my time" getting better at a game that would soon be dead where everyone would transition to Brawl. We were all wrong, Brawl was a huge disappointment. I originally thought that Brawl was a really good game....but once I opened my eyes and saw how everyone plays and how its all the EXACT same thing, I changed my mind.
I mean no disrespect to the Pro Brawl people out there and to the people who still want to play the game. I'm just sick of playing a game that has nothing to it. Its too simple and dry.
If anyone ever wants to play Melee, let me know!!! I want to get better.

You can trust me when I say this. Magic is only expensive if you buy cards. I know, sounds kind of obvious, but after playing at high level events I can honestly say I haven't spent any money on magic in over two years. If you get into the competitive seen you will make some decent friends and it just becomes a borrow fest. I can't tell you how many times I have just walked into a place for a tournament and asked to borrow a deck. Also you could play limited formats.
EDIT-
pof- I will also state that I SUCK at melee compared to people who compete, I'm alot better at brawl then I was at melee but I still have more fun losing to people in melee who are alot better then me then I do when I beat people in brawl.
Even the other day I was playing brawl with some friends which is rare because they hate to play against me, and they got board of it fast. Then I had the bright idea of switching to melee I destroyed them in melee even more so then in brawl but they had more fun playing melee. Even as I was attempting to wave shine and ken combo them, they enjoyed melee more. Melee is just more fun and impresive.
