We've all had that time when there's no friends available and so we have to fight the computer, but what level do you fight, and why?

Levels 1-5 depending on character, but for practice I live really close to a lot of other good smashers so I always practice with them when possible.

For fun right now I'm playing all the level 9 just to reverse engineer how their AI "flow chart" and reaction time is coded. Trying to see if I can JV5 each one just using ATs and actually only killing off the top or side blast lines each stock.

Usually I play with level 9 CPU's. I try to work around them to see what is better when it comes to offense and defense

Practicing against CPUs is boring. I play other fighting games online to practice prediction instead

I play at level 3 for about 5 matches, then move up to level 4, play for 5 matches, etc until I get up to 9, and then I just play on that.

There have been times where I would play a level 9, but instead of attacking, try to avoid/evade without being hit. Decent way to practice techskill and a little bit of zoning. Options are limited when you're by yourself.

when i first started, i went with level 3 or 4, than moved on, now i play level 9 all the time. the first time i played level 9's i was almost getting 4 stocked, but switching the levels around to my comfort helped, now i can play 9 no problem, but the regular melee bots arent that great so i switched to 20XX recently
