As soon as a new Super Smash Bros. game was announced for the Nintendo Switch, speculation began about its mechanics, and whether it will stay closer to the formula that Super Smash Bros. Brawl established and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U further refined, if it might bring back more aspects of Super Smash Bros. Melee, or if it'll perhaps go off in a completely new direction.
Top Smash Wii U player Eric "ESAM" Lew has joined in on the conversation with a vlog about which mechanics he wants to see the most and which ones he wants to see the least in the next Super Smash Bros. title, discussing his experience with mechanics from throughout the series and his thoughts on how mechanics like dash dancing, directional air dodges and rage affect things like the neutral game, the disadvantage state and punish options.
