"BBR Stage Analysis Project" by MetalMusicMan
Stage Information Center
Made by the Brawl Backroom, this thread scratches the surface on every single stage in Brawl, detailing stage information, strategies, and legality. If you want to understand a little bit more about a stage, this should be your first stop.

The main directory for in-depth stage information and research. If you're looking for in-depth information on a certain stage, this thread should be your #1 source of information. If you have a guide to submit, please do so in this wonderful thread, otherwise, please enjoy the wealth of information.

"Weekly Stage Discussions Directory" by Twinkie
A project by an earlier stage community that tried to compile hard data on every stage weekly. The project died quickly due to laziness, but there's still some valuable information in the discussions for each thread that's worth digging through.

""Why is this stage banned?" A Q&A regarding stage legality" by Sunshade
A very good resource for determining the legality of a certain stage. Whether or not a stage should be legal is subjective, but this thread bundles all the common reasons together and applies them to each stage in an organized, easy to understand fashion. It's a good first stop to understanding stage legality.

"Grim's Views on Stage Legality - The "Competitive" Criteria" by Grim Tuesday
This thread attempts to rank each stage's competitive value relative to each other based on the criterias that are established in the beginning of the thread. Furthermore, he discusses the relationship between rules that relate to stages and his competitive critera. It's a very good read even though it's all just the personal opinion of one person.
