Honestly, I don't know who I wanna play next, there really isn't a character I gravitate towards in this game other than MK. So I think we should band together and come up with some good characters to try and and main.

Part of me really wants to quit but part of me really wants to get good with another character to prove to myself I can use other characters.

Discuss away.

PS. I will destroy trolls and smart ***es

I have always seconded Marth and Zero Suit Samus. Ban pretty much forced me to master them. I also tried Snake, and have some interesting results, but rarely ever win something important with him. And somehow playing Dedede and Ike resulted in me winning with them, so I sticked with them.

In the end, is all about what you like
If you want aerial playstile, use Wario or Mr Game and Watch.
If you want to outrange opponents, Marth or GnW.
If you want safetly, Wario, ROB or something like that.


Alternatively, play Balanced Brawl.
Seriously ppl, don't underrate it.

Ice Climbers/Snake for Singles and Lucario/Wario for Doubles.

However, I'm still practicing Meta Knight like usual because Chile, Japan and Europe (To my knowledge, most of it if not all of Europe, if not, feel free to correct me) have it legal for 2012.

I always had a pocket snake and marth so I just use them on the occasion when I play. I stopped going to tournaments anyway, too much of a time and money sink and I've been against unity from the start, the conspiracy was around when I stopped going frequently and it's just been less and less since then

I don't know. But sometimes when I'm in a good mood and im super happy, I will randomly remember the ban, and get really pissed off. Lol

So far um maybe Peach, Tink, Snake and well I don't know... Ughhhh

Michigan is going to be 50/50 on the ban. For MK banned events, I'll be using Ice Climbers and Olimar.

I will be a bat boy forever though <3

That's like 4 characters ma du.

Ice Climbers OR snake is viable as a solo main. But if you want to main both to make life easier that's cool. I don't really think you need lucario for dubz though, Wario does like everything on every stage.

*gasp*
O :(
Well at least I got to meet you p4!

the **** i didnt get to XD

Snake and Ice climbers is a great combo. Snake is the main and ICs are the back up. All of Snake's bad matchups are countered by ICS: Olimar, Dedede, Falco, Pikachu, *possibly* Marth, etc.

ICs don't counter marth o.0

And snake marth is pretty close.

All the greatest IC are now thinking oli, ic is even(ish).

But that's ok cuz american olimars are still pretty free in that mu.

Good luck pocketing ice climbers for a character that has no hard counter anyway. In the amount of effort you spend keeping your ice climbers actually fresh and consistent enough to beat a TOP olimar/Falco player (RB/Dehf) if you just worked on your main you could improve enough to overcome the MU and just be a better player.

If you main a character like Fox or something I can understand why you need a secondary, but for characters that have no bad MUs I don't really think it's necessary most of the time and people waste the time they could use to get better. Especially considering how constant ICs need practice. It's not like wario where you can just pick him up 6 months later and you're still good to go XD

Falco and Olimar are winnable for Snake, but D3 is a ***** and Pika I think beats Snake better than any character

I used to combo MK/Snake and Olimar is really the main reason I would never solo Snake, **** that character SO MUCH

I don't think that Snake at a professional level can beat Olimar or Ice Climbers. That's why I would use him for SOME MU's. Which is why I liked the idea of using both characters. I just... like the idea of using two characters to evade MU problems/disadvantages. However, to be honest.... I think I'm gonna main Full Ice Climbers for Offline Singles tournaments and Snake for Wifi tournaments (And only Wifi tournaments that have good prizes, like tournament seeding points or even money, ha). But mostly... Just :popo: .

I don't like Wario, that's the thing. I just can't feel comfortable while using him, maybe because of how... he looks (The character itself). Or the way you have to play him. To me, it just feels like a character who jumps around and seeks for an opportunity. He doesn't feel like a character who uses a "focused" style, which is one of things I love about Meta Knight.

Wario/Lucario for Doubles (Still thinking). But I'm leaning more towards Lucario, because I like using him, and I'm already decent with him. But Wario is by far the best option. Maybe after using him/practicing more in Doubles I can change my opinion.

But we'll see.

Ice Climbers are confirmed at the moment. I used to main them in tournaments in the 2008-2009 era, so I know a little bit (Maybe I forgot, haha!) of how to use them in a tournament enviroment.

By the way, how have you been since Apex? You're a REALLY cool and fun person. I enjoyed the time I spent with you at Apex (Even though it wasn't that much... :( ). I really want to meet you again!

Oh well... Until the next big tournament!! :ness:


Most of you used MK cause he's the best.

I say, use Ganon, cause he's the worst.

Or use puff, puffs tons of fun.

I actually started to use Meta Knight because he felt like a Melee Character to me. He felt fast, cool and in control. At one point, he didn't seemed like a Brawl character at all. He seemed to be outside of the "Brawl Box". I didn't liked Brawl when it came out, because I was still in that "Melee Mindset". So, the feel of using something that felt like "Melee" felt good. Really good to be honest. This is why I main him.

And THEN I discovered that he was an S Tier character (I was sure he was a very good character, but not... that "good" back in the '08 days. I was still a noob back in the day, ha).

I actually learned to play Brawl overall with Balanced Brawl, and picked MK because he was fast.
Then everybody *****ed about mods.
Then everybody *****ed about MK AND the alternative of modding the game.

Back in 2009 when my friend always said to me:
''If you choose metaknight i ain't playing''.

A good choice to someone who mained metaknight is maining marth or ZSS

idk why, just do it

MK MAINS, MAIN DONKEY KONG

and if you want to prove you can play this game, who better than someone with no projectiles (just like MK)
and a pseudo-Nado!

thats right up-b shenanigans can give super armor or invincibility!

sacrifice speed and priority, for power, range and staying power!
