Some things that I disliked about melee.

Link to original post: [drupal=4024]Some things that I disliked about melee. [/drupal]



DISCLAIMER: I DO like melee, I really do, it is a fast good deep competitive game. This is just more of a list of things that really (and I do mean really) annoyed me when I tried to get into melee a while back.

Dislike #1: The lack of combo's in melee compared to SSB64.

Dislike #2: The including of meteor smashes, personally I enjoy and like spikes way more than meteor smashes, I can see why they are in there, but the fact that there are still spikes in melee makes it seem odd to include it in with out getting rid of all of the spikes. Also Spikes are an epic (IMO) way to end a match.

Dislike #3: The nerfing of L-Canceling, the fact that lag is reduced only by 50% is kind of annoying, I guess this complaint kind of ties into the combo nerf.

Dislike #4: Character Balance, you know the ones.

I do like a lot of things that where added into melee, I guess I will edit in that later so that way I can end this blog on a more positive note.

I think one of the things I disliked about melee was the clone overload it had.

The most annoying thing about melee was the addition of a side B. I mean why the **** do we need that anyways? It is utterly and completely useless.

I only started playing competively when brawl came out, so ofcourse, i didn't know anything about wavedashing, l-cancel, etc. So i can really only complain is that you can't dash and use your u-smash on the C Stick WHILE running, which I do in Brawl a lot...

I hated that Pikachu got nerfed.

I hated that it was SOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD

#1 cause of melee hate is that it's too good.

Why the hell did they add air dodges and spot dodges?

You can't hyphen smash in Melee, but you can do something similar by canceling your dash with a crouch and cstick up.

I personally don't like the pointless techskill requirement that is l-canceling, but some people like it so eh.

Or jump-cancel up smash.

Just up smash with the control stick + A instead of the c-stick.

Meteor smashes were ****in dumb, but 64 wasn't balanced either man? Pika vs. Link/Samus can be worse than Sheik v. Bowser

Also, I like both 64 for it's WTF **** combos, but I think Melee has a better balance of offensive and defensive capabilities. Better teching (and wall teching), survival DI and sidestepping all did a lot for the metagame. Decreased hitstun is different but not crippling like Brawl.
