 ==Changes from ''Project M'' and ''Legacy TE''==
-Like the mods ''Project+'' was based on, this mod focuses on improving the overall gameplay. While ''Project+'' has many minor changes, these are a handful of the noteworthy ones.
+Like its predecessors, ''Project+'' focuses on improving the overall gameplay. The game has been updated to Version 2.5, bringing many significant changes rom its initial release.
 One of the biggest changes, which is the main focus of ''Project+'', is the significant removal of various bugs and memory leaks featured in version 3.6 of ''Project M''. These bugs are universal and pertain to either stages, movesets, alternate costumes, sounds, or previously outdated codes used in ''Project M''. While ''Project+'' still has a few bugs, they no longer impact the overall performance as easily as they did previously, thus reducing crashes and freeing a large amount of memory. [[Tourney]] mode, which previously redirected to the [[Rotation]] mode due to glitches, is now replaced by a debug mode.
-Many more music tracks were also added, bringing the standard to a total of over 500 songs. In addition to the music found in ''Project M'', songs from other games are included as either new arrangements or from their original source. These include songs from ''Paper Mario'' and ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon'', as well as unused tracks in Brawl's files such as "New Age Retro Hippie" from ''EarthBound''. Thanks to the bug fixes and memory expansion, it is now completely possible to [https://youtu.be/M_AhlTDguWM add music] without replacing songs in the default game.
+Thanks to the mod's bug fixes and memory expansion, new features have been included and can be expanded upon:
+*[https://youtu.be/M_AhlTDguWM An expanded music list], bringing the standard to a total of over 500 songs. In addition to the music found in ''Project M'', songs from other games are included as either new arrangements or from their original source. These include songs from ''Paper Mario'' and ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon'', as well as unused tracks in Brawl's files such as "New Age Retro Hippie" from ''EarthBound''.
+*An expanded number of the items that appear in the game, with numerous returning from ''Melee''. Among them include [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon like [[Articuno]] and [[Zapdos]], who act as alternatives to Moltres, and even [[Assist Trophy]] characters like the [[Goomba]] as alternatives to the [[Hammer Bro|Hammer Bros.]], functioning identically as they did in [[Adventure Mode (SSBM)|''Melee's'' Adventure mode]] and  [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]; unique to the Goombas is that they can also be found within any [[Container]], just like in ''Melee''. Additional items include the [[Flipper]] from ''Balloon Fight'' and a variant of the [[Screw Attack (item)|Screw Attack]] based on its ''Melee'' interpretation, where it acts as a throwable item instead of as a badge.
-As mentioned by the development team, most of the changes are merely aesthetic. Noticeably, the character select screen now features a new HUD, matching the theme of ''Project+'', and includes diamond portraits. The names of the character are now completely omitted. All characters have original artwork for their select portraits, with their alternate costumes also sharing the same pose rather than having unique poses per costume, with the exception of Samus, Kirby and Ganondorf, as was the case with Wario's costume in ''Brawl''. Additionally, every fighter now has a standard of 17 costumes, with 15 in the base and two hidden skins accessible by holding R or Z.
+Additionally, [[Roy (PM)|Roy]], [[Knuckles (P+)|Knuckles]], and [[Mewtwo (PM)|Mewtwo]] are unlocked in The Subspace Emissary after defeating [[Tabuu]].
-Version 2.5 adds [[Articuno]] and [[Zapdos]] as alternatives to Moltres when summoned from a [[Poké Ball]], and also adds [[Goomba]]s as alternatives to [[Hammer Bro]]s. when summoned from an [[Assist Trophy]], as well as the [[Flipper]] from ''Melee'' and a variant of the [[Screw Attack (item)|Screw Attack]] based on its . ''Melee'' interpretation. The aforementioned Assist Trophies can also be found within [[Container]]s, like in ''Melee''. Additionally, [[Roy (PM)|Roy]], [[Knuckles (P+)|Knuckles]], and [[Mewtwo (PM)|Mewtwo]] are unlocked in [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] after defeating [[Tabuu]], along with other tweaks to characters, stages, modes, and items.

-==Tier List==
+==Tier list==
 On January 9, 2022, the first-ever Project+ [https://smashboards.com/threads/new-official-project-v-2-29-tier-list-released.516700/ tier list], coordinated by {{Sm|Sabre}} and {{Sm|Motobug}}, was released. It was created using ballots from the following players: {{Sm|Blue}}, {{Sm|Boringman}}, {{Sm|Cloudburst}}, {{Sm|Comb}}, {{Sm|Fearless}}, {{Sm|Kycse}}, {{Sm|Malachi}}, {{Sm|Motobug}}, {{Sm|Nogh}}, {{Sm|Rongunshu}}, {{Sm|Tealz}}, {{Sm|The Doctor}}, and {{Sm|Yono}}. Players were asked to rank the cast. Their ballots were then averaged together with outliers removed to avoid having any one ballot dramatically skew any character’s placement. {{PM|Pit}}, {{PM|Zero Suit Samus}}, and {{PM|Ike}} rose the most on the tier list, with Zero Suit Samus rising to 2nd. {{PM|Snake}}, {{PM|Mr. Game & Watch}}, and {{PM|Peach}} dropped the most. {{PM|Meta Knight}} remained ranked 1st, and ranks 7th-9th of {{PM|Sheik}}, {{PM|Fox}}, and {{PM|Captain Falcon}} stayed the same. {{PM|Luigi}}, {{PM|King Dedede}}, and {{PM|Jigglypuff}} dropped into the bottom tier. {{PM|Knuckles}} made his debut at 10th, at the top of A tier. The tier list scores can be found [https://imgur.com/a/4rjw10K here]. {{PM|Toon Link}} and Peach have equal scores, but Toon Link had a lower score including outliers and had less overall variance.
