competitive players are just having a hard time coping with the fact that they're n00bs all over again. before brawl was released people were *****ing that it was going to be melee 2.0 and now they're *****ing because it's not. flamewars erupting in every ****ing thread on crashboards is getting old, either adapt to the game or stick with melee, either way this forum is designed for fans not flamers.

And just when we were getting somewhere a ***got resets the scale.
Good job with your flame.
Hey, guess what?
I was awesome, at least at the local level, in Smash. I had absolutely nothing to gain by jumping onto the Brawl train, other than... The fact that I'd be playing a better game?
I'm sorry you depend on glitches in a previous game to determine skill. I'm sorry that you have to have an endless combo to be good. Why don't you go play a healthbar fighter like Street Fighter and shut up?

So funny how people talk noise and cave when called out on it.
Stop feeding your egos, if you like melee, go play it. Don't ***** and moan because you didn't get your way. Sounds like the self proclaimed "pros" are babies.

^i disagree with the story mode, it sucks ***. But brawl is better then melee. Just because you can't do **** quickly doesn't mean you can't combo. I am glad they made everyone more equal not completly, but better then in melee.

To say you cannot compare brawl to melee is .... just wrong...
That's like saying you can't compare metroid prime 1 to metroid prime 2 just because they werent on the same disx.-____- We knew we were not going to get melee 2.0...we were warned this by all of the californian pros who tried the game...and sure the game has just bin out a week, but at the point where we know that l-cancelilng is gone (something PURPOSELY put into both smash 64 and melee in order for more competitve play) we know something is going downhill.

Can you L-cancel? No.
Can you WD? No.
Can you combo by Melee standards? No.
Can you edge-guard? No.
Can you *insert Melee tech here*? Probably not.
Is it Melee?
NO.
Seriously people, it's simple. If you're expecting Melee, you will be disappointed, even with HG mode and all that jazz. Do I agree with it 100%? No. Just because the name has "Smash Bros." in it doesn't mean it will play exactly like the original. It's a different game. Give it time. It may be deep, just not in the way that Melee is.
And for all the people saying Melee pros are out of a job now, if people really care about the competitive scene then Melee tourneys will co-exist alongside Brawl shills since it's readily apparent that Melee is more comp-oriented. Honestly, I think Brawl tourneys are a sham anyways this early in the metagame since all Melee elements were nulled, every character is balanced on the surface, and barely any ground has been broken in the metagame...then again, shouldn't that mean that these 'tourneys' depend all the more on skill?
Bottom line: If you want Melee, play Melee. If you want Brawl, play Brawl. I'm taking both for what they are.

ACTUALLY, it's not that simple.
If someone would be a fan of SSBM, if that person, doesn't like SSBB, there could be many factors which would make it DeTrImEnTaL! Go play melee? That's hardly a solution.
One part of this I do agree on, however. Don't make a thread like this one about it; nothing constructive will come of it.

Ah, that makes much more sense than mine.

Much obliged.
@Sandwich:
I'm not bashing either game. I'm stating that at this point Brawl is far less 'competitive' by Scar's definition. It's like a direct SSB64 sequel, which I absolutely love (except for the no l-canceling part), which allows for more thought and less muscle memory and spamming. However, I have my doubts that it will ever be as 'competitive' as Melee was due to the new physics.
I, however, am pleased with the balancing. I have very mild cerebral palsy, which as an unfortunate side effect resulted in decreased muscle mass on my body, more so the left arm/leg. That translated to me being unable to fully utilize techniques like dash-dancing, WDing and SHFFLing in Melee because I simply couldn't keep up with the lightning reflexes those techniques demanded. When Brawl came out, I was ecstatic that short-hopping was overall easier and that accursed WD was non-existent since air dodges were now more inline with actual physics. I overall find Brawl more enjoyable despite lack of competitiveness, simply because I can now perform on the same level physically as everyone else. I still play Melee, but Brawl will be my game of choice 9 out of 10 times.

For 1v1 I think Melee is better. Most of the Brawl matches that I have played have been campy, drawn out, and just not very fun. The deficiency of viable offensive tactics becomes problematic against characters with an abusable projectile. They force you to approach, and when you finally reach them chances are you will be punished because, as the defender, they have a distinct advantage.
However, 2v2 matches are a completely different story. Most of the benefits of camping are eliminated, or at least greatly reduced. I have thoroughly enjoyed playing 2v2 Brawl matches and believe teamwork and coordination make them equally competitive to their Melee counterparts.

Actually, I was thinkg the same thing. 2v2 on Wi-Fi occupies much of my spare time.
