Its funny, I was most excited about metaknight coming into the game as soon as he was announced. I went out of my way to make sure all my friends knew I was planning on using him in brawl. When the game came out he was way easy to play and for that reason unappealing. It isn't fun to play as him and I don't feel like it requires much, if any skill. I would pass my opponents and smash the wrong way and still hit people WTF @ HIS HITBOXES ARE ********.
I'm not trying to troll or flame, I really love metaknight as a character and love beating metaknight players but I seriously cannot play him just because he is top tier. Its kind of funny because I mained marth back in Melee. <_<
EDIT: Okay so I realize I was completely ****ting on mk in this post and I'm on the mk board. Don't take it offensively, people are allowed to have different opinions. You don't have to argue mine, its how
I feel, not you and I realize that. He is a viable character and does require skill to beat skilled players of other characters. Just how much is debatable
