[Tsuteto]

I swear there's more advertisements for that thing than there is publicity for presidential elections....

Anyway, I have my wii connected by wire now. No more wireless connection, yay!

Someone should help me abuse my new found joy in the near future ^^

 

[BattleChrist]

NATE!!!!!!!!

.....You should give me that vid

 

[lengeta]

Layne- ***** me in ta Battle****s lol.

Tears... in... my... eyes.

I can also feel Brawl slipping. I'm still going to play the crap out of it, but I don't think I'll end up taking at seriously as I did Melee. Meh.

yeah! i say we go back to melee!!!! melee! FTW!

dont get me wrong brawl is an amazing game but im just not feeling it the way i did in melee and its just not as competitive

 

[FoxTheStampede]

I've been thinking about cutting Brawl singles in favor of Melee singles or teams.

 

[Dai-A]

Yes You Have To Do Melee! I Like It Soooooooooo Much Better Do It For Sure Fts

 

[Tsuteto]

Either that or we could rotate the game type. One month do Brawl, the next do Melee. Or we could also do the same thing, just as bi-weeklies, with Summer coming up and what not.

 

[Staz]

i say we dont completely forget about brawl, but something like a switch off like tsuteto is saying.

 

[Gojira]

MY take

Lets not toss away brawl at all yet. I was thinking a bit about a post Cactuar made about brawl and melee. Then I look at how young brawl is and how everyone is giving up on it. Despite how much it does not live up to Melee, Brawl is young, really young. Now that doesn't mean it can get better because for all we know it can still get worse. With the japanese already discovering "Smash Boost" there is a good chance more AT"swill be discovered.

So basically, right now, brawl is nothing compared to melee, and because it isnt we want our favorite game back. We need to give brawl time and we are trying to rush it and want it to be melee right off the bat. With that said, this game will NEVER be melee because of one thing, tripping. Maybe when good ol sakurai sees the sales of brawl declining and melee sales continuing to grow, he will realize he made a mistake and fix brawl.....but we all know that wont happen....maybe.

So again we might as well bite the bullet and play brawl and learn it more and try to surface more things about it and see what happens in the future.

Although I haven't read the post you're referring to, I did read one from Gimpyfish which undeniably proves that Sakurai intended Brawl to be a less competitive game. You guys can choose to give Brawl a chance but I'm not going to waste time playing it until I see other better smash communities develop the metagame to a point where it's at least somewhat fun.

I vote for a rotation between Melee teams + Brawl singles and Brawl teams + Melee singles.

that sounds reasonable

 

[Tsuteto]

I was playing around with the idea of doing that type of rotation, but decided against it. Brawl and Melee are two very different things when you get down to the finer points. People will stumble from thinking for a split second that they were playing the other version and not the one they are now. There's only a few people who can switch in between the two games with next to no drawbacks.

 

[Wikipedia]

Sooo, Xsybaby, when are you coming to Oregon?

 

[Junpappy]

If you can switch between Fox and Falco (both from melee) you can switch from Brawl to Melee.

And quit hitting on xsyven wikipen!5lover!! He's mine.

I do agree we switch out melee and brawl singles however, but brawl doubles should definatley stay because brawl doubles eliminate some the of the problems brawl singles have.

lol i love brawl doubles, especially with ike

 

[Tsuteto]

Ike and Zelda just love the doubles period. Got the powerhouse up front, and annoyance from miles away XD

 

[harpuia190]

just to clarify are we planning on still doing brawl singles for the april tourney?

 

[CorruptFate]

FP, Wild and I just had the first pepper match last night with the new ones we are using, and they are perfect we split it up because they are big (finger length) so we could all see but the loser (me just barly thougth) had to eat it first and when it was FPs turn he through up in his mouth a little. Its going to be fun.

 

[Dai-A]

K so guys i think 3 more tourneys and im out of the smash scene, i just dont like brawl as much as melee
Maybe ill come to some after the three next tourneys(which should be my last ones). But if the utah smash scene starts heading back to melee. ill probably come to all of them .

 

[Tsuteto]

Yeah, I just found a bunch of peppers in my house, and my mom was about to throw them away and I'm like "don't you dare"

So I'll be bringing some. I have no idea what type they are though XD

 

[Xtinction]

you guys are babyyyss!!

trying to bring melee back(although i love the gameplay)

that that jira said, lets try to adapt to brawl and maybe wait for some new AT.
i dont think we should give up in brawl so easy.

just WAIT!
and if brawl doesnt get better. then my melee falco is cumin back!!
( i dont wanna leave sonic!!!!!! )

 

[harpuia190]

ya lets hold up with brawl a little longer, its only been a month :|

 

[Junpappy]

Too bad your melee falco suuuuucks

 

[FoxTheStampede]

"Giving brawl a chance" doesn't mean replacing melee completely. After this tournament, there will be a singles or doubles melee tournament and a brawl singles or doubles tournament. The pattern hasn't been decided yet, but brawl singles sucks.

 

[lengeta]

Brawl sales are already at 4mil, over half of Melee's entire seven years of sales, they won't be a negative indicator for Sakurai. Besides, catering to the casual gamer improves sales more than following the hardcore enthusiasts, it's been seen many times and is basically counter-active to the goal of the Wii. I'm personally not interested in Melee anymore, although it's still the better game in my eyes, but there's too many games out there for me to sick with previous iterations. I'm moving on. Brawl won't be as big and awesome as Melee was, and that's sad, but oh well. If there's a rotation I'll just show up every other month instead, no big deal.

Tripping isn't a big deal either, it's only punishable if your opponent makes a mistake (you see Ike start his f-smash, dash to hit him during is wind-up, trip, get Ike'd-f-smashed in the face). It's only worked out bad for me once or twice, it usually just ruins a window of attack. Brawl's problem currently IMO is that it's WAY to defensive. I actually prefer the lack of combos compared to Melee. Oh, and the online blows.

I have a sneaking suspicion you're all just scared of my Pit though, and that's why you want to go back to Melee. XP Actually, since I've all but stopped playing online, I might have to work on my Falco again.

 

[Tsuteto]

Except my Zelda pretty well counters your stupid arrows XD

See you at the tourney then lengeta?

 

[CorruptFate]

When melee came out there weren't things like wave dashing, it took years for it 2 come out, and people are sad because we don't have something like that we would have never found wave dashing if people stopped playing melee and went back to 64. There will be more AT there are so many that people are finding already more AT very fast and the game has only been out for a few months.

 

[DancingFighterG]

Yo, this is DancingFighterG. What up Smashers. CCCT for Smash is going to be HUGE. With about 70+ smashers signed up and probably another 10+ coming at the door you know one wants to miss this event. This will be biggest Smash Brawl tournament to date. LETS GET CUTTHROAT!!!

www.coloradocutthroat.com/CCCT.php

 

[Tsuteto]

Another thing though is that Brawl has tons more people searching for ATs in it compared to Melee. However, Brawl appears to be more of a glitch based thing now compared to abusing the system's mechanics in Melee.

 

[Xtinction]

Too bad your melee falco suuuuucks

?!?! shut up CREA i owned every now and then!........

plus i didnt get into the smash scene early like you did

 

[InterimOfZeal]

Too bad Utah suuuuuuuuucks.

Who all is coming to C3T?

There will be more AT there are so many that people are finding already more AT very fast and the game has only been out for a few months.

You have to understand, in melee, people weren't looking for ATs at all, a few things were already known(Z cancel translates to L cancel) and most ATs were found by accident. In brawl, everyone and their mothers are looking for an advanced technique, since we're not really finding anything, chances are there aren't going to be any. Here:

http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=516492&topic=42199054

Proof that WDing was discovered about 4 months after the game's release, as well as plenty of other ATs that are pretty important.

 

[Wikipedia]

Come to Oregon, Xsyven.

 

[Tsuteto]

So is there ANYONE who will pass by the Orem area for the C3T who would be able to provide a ride? If so, I might tag along. Got nothing better to do XD

 

[spiritdragon]

Seriously guys,

1st - $720
2nd - $360
3rd - $120

On singles alone, not to mention walkins and this was the estimate from this Monday.

 

[Junpappy]

Sorry CO but Utah decided not to go (except for Dai-A, who I am unsure about). We'll see you at FC though if you guys go maybe.......possibly......who wants to go to FC?
