What's your favorite the best 2-player/no items stage?

[Freezrbrn]

FD ftw. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Death approaches rather quickly.

Delphino Plaza and Green Hill Zone. The former is probably my favorite stage overall - its both very interesting due to the constant changes in terrain, and fair due to the lack of hazards. Green Hill Zone though has my favorite music, and its few hazards are pretty tame and can be used strategically rather than just popping up out of nowhere to screw you the way hazards usually do on other stages (see: the cars on Port Town, the fish on the Summit, and so on).

Castle Siege and Luigi's Mansion get honorable mention, for similar reasons to Delphino Plaza.

The "neutral" stages - FD, Battlefield, Lylat Cruise, Yoshi's Island, and Smashville - I'm not a fan of. They're too dull - unchanging arrangements of a few platforms, with at most a little motion of part of the stage. Ho-hum. I can play a couple of matches on them without getting bored, but after that, I need to play someplace more interesting.

Halberd, smashville, Delfino Plaze ^_^

EDIT: oh shiz, I forgot Green Hill Zone, I'd play there if for nothing else, then the music alone!

 

[algandar88]

id say it was spear pillar ...its quite fun with its randomness my second pick would be pkmn stadium 2

 

[Yuna-Maria]

My vote goes to Frigate Orpheon. Simple enough to be a reliable tourney stage, but with just the right amount of spontaneity.
Also, it takes me back to Metroid Prime with the Parasite Queen in the background. So glad that she didn't use her acid cannon attack in Brawl. SO glad.

I like Spear Pillar's design and aspect but my Wii seems to like the "Titanium Turkey" Poke'mon as my friends call it. That think's attack really can destroy a match. Anyone else's Wii prefere one of the 'random' pokemon on SP? With that hazard, the Fish on Glacier and 75m, I think that the stage needs a stock score. -_-;

On topic, most of the neutral stages are good but Deflino i have to agree is a great 1v1 choice. You need to keep on edge just for the stage landing and new environments (until it gets boring and repeatative too). Go Go Super Mario World remix!

 

[sonic boy]

smashville and final destenation

 

[Knyaguy]

Yoshi's Island, I love the music... Obstacle Course and Yoshi's Island.

 

[Shanky]

For 1v1s, my favorites are Yoshi's Island (Brawl), Smashville, and Frigate Orpheon.

For FFAs, I like Delfino, Pirate Ship, & Castle Siege.

PS I don't see how anyone could like Hyrule Temple lol. ew

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Stages with no environmental hazards would be your best choice. Battlefield and Final Destination are a few choices.

 

[JNS]

lylat cruise or battlefield

 

[FerretStyle]

Lylat Cruise
Delfino Plaza
Battlefield

All equally good.

 

[PitMasta]

1V1 matches i definatly like BattleField or Final Destination!

 

[diddymaster]

battlefield or delfino plaza

 

[UltiMario]

I guess.......
Battlefield, I just pick it a lot because it seems to beinifit my main (Meta Knight)

 

[SuPa050]

Corneria easily... honestly 85% of my matches on both melee and brawl have been on that stage

 

[x9whitey9x]

Either Final Destination or Corneria. For some reason, I always have really good battles on Corneria.

Agreed. Back in Melee, it was always Corneria, Battlefield, or Final Destination.
Nowadays, it's Final Destination and Halberd.

 

[WolfCypher]

Final Destination is seriously overrated. You want a fair and balanced stage with only 2 players, no items? Battlefield. No one has any advantages, unlike FD. Even Smashville out-trumps FD.

 

[Micahc]

I really love Luigi's Mansion for just about everything, unless I'm Lucario. For some reason I always get caught under the stage as him.

 

[Triforce_Chauzu]

Love Smashville, it's always my default choice when I play (unless my FD lover friends on a visit). Rarely ever pick FD, because it doesn't really benefit my Zelda's recovery...
