How the hell can you stand BB but hate B+? (sorry BB people)
Given that I play Brawl, Balanced Brawl just felt like a patch to me. That's really the reason. Granted, BB also got boring after a while. Not because it wasn't enjoyable no, but because no one ****ing plays it.
Because no one really wants a patch of Brawl.
Brawl+, rather my experience with Brawl + just wasn't ever that great and I admit that back when it was kicking around with more popularity, the crowd wasn't that appealing to me (at this point I didn't understand competitive Melee either and it had the no items, fox only stigma thing in my mind).
But that was also around the time I got into competitive smash anyway. Project M legitimately closed the gap between the two games for me. I began to understand Melee a bit more and try to get into the scene and here we are.
I still don't own Melee and have ****ty GC controllers (which is why I play with the CCP) so I still have a bit to go before I seriously start into the scene though.
