This was brought up partially in another thread but I want to see some discussion about this, because I think I'm in a minority about it.
Talking from a For Glory 1 on 1 perspective, I find mirror matches (Playing the same character as your opponent) pretty fun, being a completely equal test of skill between two different playstyles using the same moveset, making it akin to a duel or something.
Matches between two good players of the same characters makes it feel more equal of a fight, this way you can't complain about "Unbalanced projectiles" "Not enough recovery frames" or simply "Bad matchups" because you have them too, it's a 1 to 1 comparison between two different players.
...That being said, and the reason I bring this up, is that I'm seeing a very common trend of "I hate mirror matches" on these boards, and I'm curious as to varying opinions as to why. So, do you like mirror matches? If you don't, why? And, if you do, I'd also like to see your personal opinions on the subject.
