I'm officially retired from Brawl.

Contrary to what SOME PEOPLE WHO ARE COWARDS may believe, Brawl is a steaming pile of imbalance with an overdefensive metagame. Any match where I can so much put up a decent fight inevitably becomes a snoozefest. It's just pointless wasting my time with people who especially argue that Ice Climbers' deathgrab is somehow balanced. (Hint: it's not. If you think you can avoid being grabbed with Nana right behind Popo the entire match, you're in for a rude awakening.) Really, even Startropics is better about the Mercy Invincibility, and Startropics has notoriously bad MI.

Its rare to find a Vs anyone these days too. I can understand from the video you put up about Brawl being broken. Well we'll just pray that SSB whatever they call it isnt as broken but has more stuff too.

Another issue I have with Brawl since I remember: input registration idiocy. Sometimes I do the wrong move, which gets really old really fast. I still do the wrong move in Melee, but it's nowhere near as bad aside from the annoying forced Tap Jump, since for one thing Melee is faster. Of course, Melee has its own balance issues, not as many characters to begin with, and no online.

Meanwhile, I did 15 Minute Melee with Link.

Ah yes I remember that happening to me all the time when I try to recover or running off the stage with ike trying to run a < A and I fall and do a A. Although I'm not sure what I said or did to remind you of it. XD

I gotta say though that was a really good run with Link.
