She's nowhere near as good at pulling those puns off as Ludwig is.

Aren't Toon Link, Meta Knight, Sonic, Pokemon Trainer fantastic(minus Charizard)?

Toon Link is great, yeah. Better downstab than normal Link, for sure. Metaknight is just way to stubby, and his reach is terrible. His tele-backstab is his best move. Sonic's smashes aren't punchy enough for my tastes (except his forward, admittedly), and it's Squirtle that sucks, not Charizard, even though Ivysaur is my favorite for his aerial up and down A.

Your name suits you. I can't speak for Brawl as I haven't played it yet, but Link is by no means overpowered in the first two smash games. In the first one he had a terrible recovery and wasn't the fastest character, but being the only sword character evened that out cause he had plenty of range. In melee, he is pretty slow and has a lot of lag after most of his moves (especially his up B). His power makes up for this, but he didn't have very good priority either (priority means if two moves hit at the same time the one with more priority wins). Overall he was probably the middle of the bunch in both smash games. He was never the best, but never the worst. Maybe you only think he's overpowered cause you play with people who spam his Up B (which is only good if you don't realize that it can be easily avoided and the person doing it is left vunerable once the attack has ended). The real overpowered characters are Fox, Sheik, Marth, etc. Marth is the most overpowered IMO, but that's neither here nor there.

Super Smash Bros. is pretty much my life and I main Link so I couldn't help myself with that one. :)

Yeah I don't deny he doesn't have his share of strengths and weaknesses, I was more making fun of people who use him a ridiculous amount and spam the up-b. Odds are they do that. You have to make a strong argument and display proof that you are handy with Link before I write you off as a noob bc you link, since they seem pretty much mutually exclusive.

However, I really have no room to call someone cheap since I use *oh noes* falco a ton. He just can hurt you in so many ways.

Yep, Link, Fox, C. Falcon, Samus, and Ganondorf, the cheap-o five (although i am good with Ganondorf and passable with C. Falcon)

I liked Kirby, Game and Watch, and Marth as well

"Despite the errors, Veronica Belmont still sucks."


That's exactly the reason why people like her.

One of my best friends is one of those CAs. For all I know she was one of the people watching the projector screen. I'm waiting for her to show up in one of these videos.

'so why did you bring this game?'
it's SMASH BROS.
ugh. doesn't need an explanation.

and as for link, people just usually go him when they're nintendo fans and don't know how to play.. noobs basically. he's nothing special i'd say.

soooo gutted that it's gonna take forever for this game to release in the UK :(

I was in that tournament 3 nights in a row, amazing atmosphere in that room, im sitting right behind where belmont is. It felt a lil weird playing with items and all levels for sure but it was all around good fun.

Wow. Well I have to say, I was there playing, and Brawl is SIGNIFICANTLY more balanced than the first two games.

You can't really say anyone is cheap because everyones strengths and weaknesses not only balance out, but if you spam a move repeatedly, it becomes weaker and has a lower throw back radius.

There were people playing a variety of characters, every character was used. Link was popular, because many people just love him. He is a good character with both strong melee and range. Nobody was spamming up+B in the tourney at all, because they knew it would get weaker the more you use it anyway.

And as for the Final Smash in a tourney, yes of course there was. It makes sense, and its a fight trying to get for it. It was fun, and without it, the game wouldn't have been as good.

So stop whining and complaining about how bad somebody or something is before you've even had the chance to play it. I'm sure all of you SS fans will love Brawl, it is 10x better than the first two. EVERYONE at GDC who played it agreed.
