Smash Journeyman
No flames enter past here...,
this thread is not based off of any particular form of knowledge or foresight, this' merely for us to begin making our predictions for fun! So no flaming allowed.
Use what you know from melee, and use what you think you know from Brawl..., (about heavy characters, about projectile users, about what's been buffed & nerfed as far as we know it...), and what we do know from Brawl (about speed, floatiness, etc.) to create your best educated prediction about who will lead the pack in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
This first official tier prediction thread will be strictly for pre-release assumptions...,
I will create #2 & 3 threads both one month after Brawl has been released & one year after release so we can easily determine how accurately our predictions turned out.
It'll be FUN! So game on.
**************************************************************************
P.S. Please make sure to add a quick descriptor for the why you believe this character deserves their position.
Also assume, no items, no final smashes, and all-around play (balanced between 1v1, & 4 person ffa)
