how does it feel that most of the top brawl players beat 90% of the melee community in their own game? and that the top melee players wouild get 3 stocked consecutively by 90% of upper level brawl players?

Lol they all need to play Blazblue so we can beat them.

Hey Take, are you going to the ArcadeUFO tourney in Austin? If so I would need a partner if I went. :)

when it comes to the transition of melee to brawl, I have to give it to the developers, I couldn't have possibly been more maniacal in my pursuit to turn the two dimensional fighting game we call smash bros. into a less competitive game.

^^True true lol

And wow...the y'all really suck lol we stopped saying crap about your game...and yet you call melee gross...sorry y'all are always going to suck at a game that takes skill rather than patience to run the ****king timer out.

And we've all tried brawl and it's ATs. It's just not something that we melee players can really get into.
Yeah I was totally joking. Mouf, Clueless and I played a ****-ton of Brawl and Melee at FS8. I like both games. I was just giving Mouf a hard time. :)

U would be suprised bud, they actually take about the same.
nah greatness, I actually don't have THAT low of an opinion of Brawl, but certainly there's factual logic as to why brawl isn't as good. I could start with total lose of movement technique, but I won't get into the debate. When you take away techniques in the game, obviously there is a lot of loss of things at play. Not enough was added back.

Pound is amazing.

And I randomly found a drunk Lee Martin xD Since he's the only brawler I know, I'm recorded most/all of his singles bracket.

Today I didn't update much since it's just melee pools, but tmrw I'll be sending texts to alot of people saying whats going on for both games.

210 324 4295

Text me, and TELL ME WHO YOU ARE cuz my new phone doesn't have saved numbers D:

Oh, and brawlers didnt bring enough setups. Plank wants to split tv's at 32 for each game, but I don't think theres even gonna be 32 wii's/brawl. It might be epic fail. Know for sure tmrw.

And I guess that's it. Made a melee only post in the tourny thread. Can't link it since the hotels computer is whack.

Im tired. Bye guys :D

LOL you've got it backwards. Brawl takes way more thought. Melee takes more tech skill.
LOL you obviously know nothing about that game.

lets see, melee has more ATs, ATs adds more depth, depth makes more options which means you have to think about more options, PLUS the game is faster that means you have to think about more options at a faster speed in a game where when you make a mistake you might get ***** for it. Now how does brawl take more thinking? They're pretty even imo.
U would be suprised bud, they actually take about the same.
This. The added tech skill makes it harder. If techskill was the only factor of melee i would be amazing, but i suck.

And wtf is this??? This isn't even KIND OF true. The only top brawler that does well in melee is M2K, who is originally a melee player. If this is sarcasm i is sorry.

idk I don't like to hate on brawl, thats not how I roll.

I still think brawl is a bit more mental than melee. Mainly because its harder to break down in melee. And there seems to be less options the game gives you from a mental viewpoint.

For instance, its generally much easier to take a stock off in melee, due to combos. But in brawl, most characters cant combo into a forsure death, so working for that stock would put much more of a mental strain on you.

Also, people should stop saying, since they took this and that out of brawl, its auto not as good. Its a different game. Melee is more offensive, brawl is more defensive. Just because air dodging works in one, and not as well in the other doesnt make it stupid or anything. Just a difference.

Oh wells, I love them both =]

See this is how I think. I think brawl and melee take the same amount of thinking/mental game, BUT I think it's more useful/important in brawl because you guys have nothing else to fall back on, I don't agree with melee being offensive because Jiggs is proving that melee can be played extremly gay/defensively too. Jiggs is like brawl in one character. Spacies camp a lot now too.

Because Smoom is a sensitive guy and Mouf says things that offend him. Smoom is like, the only person on AIM who's ever blocked me. Albeit temporarily, but still. I didn't even say a bad word, I just referred to one.
Lol. That for was lulz. I wasn't really mad at you.

And mouf just says scary things.

Lee martin and hyro got first in b+ teams and pound. Though b+ is ******** im proud of our boys. I think lee may be in top 5 for b+ singles. What are YOUR predictions for pound 4? I think M2k/ally/dehf/adhd then i guess tied for 5th is tyrant and co18. just guesses. Does anybody know if anti went?






jerm, who do u want me to use when we team at hobo?

i just noticed this lol. i don't consider any brawl players in houston better than me at melee, let alone like...any top brawl players i can think of besides the ones that were amazing at melee before brawl. dojo did knock me into losers last hobo but i think i'd beat em if we played again, i've beaten broly twice, beat lee martin, and i'm 1-1 in tourney with vash and dojo. actually, if any brawl players in houston wanna test this out and melee mm me at the next hobo i'd totally be down: inui vash dojo broly lee martin whoever, bring it son! i'd also like to play some more brawl next hobo...

the thing take said doesn't even apply for several reasons. one, a lot of the top brawl players already have a background in melee and were good in that game to begin with, so the transition to brawl was easy for them.

and reason most melee players suck at brawl is because they never played it. they saw how ****ty it was and never gave it a chance, so of course a lot of them won't be good at it.
