Tech-o-rama!!

[susu_atari]

Now, we've all heard a lot about how Brawl is going to be quite a different game to melee. We've all read about the speed being tweaked and the characters all having some sort of fundamental change to make them more manouverable in the air, and this new technique, the footstool jump being announced. And will there be any real benefit to crawling?

But does anybody think that we may be playing a more different game than we originally thought? What if we discover that the bubble shield is gone? What if the air-dodge is no more? What if just about everything in Melee that we've been basing our battles around is stripped away, and replaced by a whole new array of techniques? What then?

Then we'll adapt and move on.

Who know's, but I'm hoping for the ability to tech off of other players, transfering about half of your momentum over to them

Then we change our fighting style to suit the new game and the new techs/mechanics.

If that kind of thing does happen (which I doubt. Things like the bubble shield are really necesary), I'm sure we wouldn't be happy with the change, but it wouldn't stop us from playing around it and fighting differently.

I personally don't see a reason for crawling, and footstool just seems a little too out there, but hey, someone's gonna find good uses to them.

...

Wavedashing.


Commence war.



Seriously though, please no one talk about it. I vote that we talk about every other technique as to avoid flame wreckage of a good thread idea.

Then we'll adapt and move on.

yep........

 

[Ogre_Deity_Link]

Adapt or die.

We'll complain for about a month, then suddenly find out X trick or Y exploit and techs will hit the field again.

 

[THEmSHAKE]

Then we'll adapt and move on.

BAM! Exactly right.

 

[Ess oh Aytch]

Losing everything competitive about it, you're saying? Melee.

 

[cubican62]

for every tech lost, im sure it will be replaced somehow. i doubt the series will lose its competitive edge.

 

[Pyroloserkid]

WHAT IF...noobs knew how to use the search function?!?! =O

Anyways, we'll all buy it anyways, we'll adapt, and we'll pwn scrubs.

Actually, about wavedashing, I found something on it:

Mario is doing that flying air-dodge position thing. Does that mean anything to anyone?

 

[Mistle]

^Well, it's confirms airdodging.... whiich I guess is one step closer to wavedashing. If they use the same physics engine, wavedashing will most likely still work.
