How would Brawl players feel about a Balanced Brawl event?

Never. I read that they got rid of Sheik's tiltlock. Sheik is mediocre and doesn't **** any of the characters that win tournaments by tiltlocking them. If anything, her ftilt should be getting BUFFED to make her better so that the game is more BALANCED. The current title of it should be called Crybaby Brawl.
Ya, taking out a move that makes characters unviable... those fools. Still not the right place for this argument though.

Good luck Mario

The characters she ***** with ftilt are not viable because they suck and not because of her. You aren't going to see Fox and Wolf players all of a sudden winning tournaments because Sheik can't tiltlock them. And this IS the place for this argument since the title asked how people would feel about Balanced Brawl.

It's not the chaingrabs that make brawl fail. It's the stupid stuff. You can avoid chaingrabs easily. As a peach player i can say ddd chaingrab is the least of my worries. It's the stupid stuff like being offstage as peach and litteraly can't do anything to get back on when going against mk. Or the dumb stuff like snake'jab killing yet he dont die til 180. Chaingrabs were in both 64 and melee. Stop acting like chaingrabs are new.


With that said i would come. I never played it before and dont know how peach has been buffed/nerfed but im willing to try it out.
I am a wolf player and I do not approve of this message.

He was asking if people want to go to his tournament. That isn't really asking for the people who aren't to comment why.

YES, Wolf and Fox NOW CAN win tournaments because of that. I'm sure it hurt Sheik but they gave her other improvements and now Zelda and Sheik are more of a unit because they slowed transformation time.

Ok, I'll hold this as a side event for the time being and garner response from there. I really appreciate everyone's responses.

Hey guys,

While we're at it, why don't we take melee and remove all the stupid crap in that game too- like ic infinite on sheik, uthrow chains on ffers, unpunishable tipper, and everything else broken, and let's make yoshi and ness viable characters.

The point is- removing things you don't like about a game just makes new things that people won't like about the game. You can't please everyone- and the majority of players seem to be happy with brawl.

At least make a huge change like brawl+ where it feels like something different altogether instead something that confuses everyone. Plus with this you even further segregate the community- it is unecssary.

If you want to host something on your own time great- I encourage you to do that. Take a risk, should you feel its worth it. My opinion is not in support of bb

The community is already divided. Once that boundry was crossed, what does it matter if you make it any worse?

Not really. It'd only be a "demise" if everyone hated each other. Just respect each other's preference and do your own thing.

If you had read anything on the post I had linked, it's that you don't have to completely change your playstyle to play Balanced Brawl. I've said it before, Brawl+ is held in a different regard to VBrawl. Brawl+ is not melee--it just tries to improve on what the game currently had, and I think a lot of players can agree, there's a lot of stupid stuff.

Everything changes, and there's no reason that I or any other player should do nothing and accept brawl for what it is: garbage, imo, but a fun piece of garbage for me to play. Balanced brawl was a heavily-worked upon codeset that aimed to take a lot of stupid **** out of brawl.

God, I don't want to get started.

In any case, I appreciate your input. Yes, true balance can't be achieved in games like these, but the people who work and have an interest to stop putting out things like these are true heroes in my eyes. Nothing ever gets done in life by standing around. But if that's your prerogative, then, I can respect that.

You should come out and have some fun though. Think of it as a betatest--you may end up liking it.

I mean unless you main MK or something
