If someone asks me to explain melee in a short answer it can be quite difficult. I wanted to explain melee to some friends but I had some trouble. I was wondering what you guys think.

A nostalgic fighting game with easy to learn controls, and all your favorite Nintendo chars. It also just happens to have arguably the most dedicated competitive community, and depth deeper than the Mariana trench.

The best fighting/party game ever made.

 

[Ten of Nine]

Precise, emergent, deep game play that's easy to learn but would take a lifetime to master. The best money you can spend on a fighting game as long as you are willing to put in the work.

A game so good that it has lasted for 15 years. The fastest game of chess and strategy that can be played, it is extremely competitive, but is great to play at all levels of play.
