i voted for melee, reasons... better test of player skill, better tournament game... brawl has nothing that meele doesnt have in terms of gameplay..... Only thing brawl has is newness (which will be dying out eventually) and more characters which will be obsolete do to lack of game depth.
brawl should be a side tourney for fun if anything, but melee should continue as the main competive tourney game.
then we wait for smash 4 if its a true sequal to meele(more character stages , same game physics we rejoice, if its brawl 2.0 we throw it out the window imidietly... if its a completly new smash game we go into even more turmoil.....
this is the future of competitive smash
