i wish i had ppl in more modesto to talk about brawl with...
i'll talk anyway
i've been watching ssbbmania1's brawl videos of the japanese players, and i'm pretty darn impressed. i remember RATS' Sonic and II's ganon, but that was just a start... besides the cool low tiers, i'm beginning to see a high level of skill with some of their mainers of more popular characters
RAIN's falco come to mind... and i'm sure lots of people would beat me up for this but i think he's one of the smartest falcos i've seen to date, if not the best... he's comparable to DEHF, i think they are pretty cloes in skill level, it's really impressed. RAIN's pretty campy, but it works, and the way he does it is very methodical and smart.
something i get from american players is that they are very intuitive and use the simplest strategies to win. the japanese, however, do try to apply techy stuff that they have learned in brawl, cuz it IS very limited, but they try it anyway. for example, Gonta's Olimar is really flashy and tricky with his spacing... he doesn't make ALL the smartest decisions, but for the most part he plays well and is actually fairly aggressive for an Oli main. it's really cool to watch
as for their metaknights... ehh they're good but, not up to par with americans if you ask me.

bombsoldier's metaknight is pretty cool though hahah, he has unique glide skills. other than that, mew2king and dojo demolish anything else i've seen haha
Selcia's Ike is amazing. it really takes a lot of creativity to optimize ike's moveset, but Selcia has done it pretty well. he uses pivot grabs and jab cancels in a way that i haven't seen before, he makes ike look pretty fast haha. he beats this diddy kong in this recent video on the channel... the diddy is pretty good but he doesn't know how to camp lol. he should camp ike imo
Shu's snake is hilarious lol. sooooo campy, so much mindgames LOL it's funny to watch. he's no Ally, but he's still really good. really.... well, different. ahhahaa
kite has a good wario
![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
too campy though. i mean, wario should camp but.... he shouldn't NOT attack ever... good warios are campy but Kite takes it a little far lol
i think disk/bombsoldier/kite are the dominant forces of west japan, i believe mikael doesnt play brawl...
i wonder what happened to the old school east japan guys like aniki and masashi? i heard they still play, pit and wario respectively... and i heard pit is considered the 4th best character in japan, which is probably because of masashi somehow... iono, his early pit videos were REALLY good, so i'd like to see some new ones of him. ahhh
i <3 brawl, i wish ppl in modesto came to my house more lol
DOTEY COME HOME!!!!!!!!!!!
that guy would always brawl with me... ahhh **** <3
kim is too easy to beat lol. how come i alwasy get peaches =\
