Hello, my name is John. I knew about Smash back in 2009, but it was only until the spring of 2014 when my friends really got me into it. Credit goes to [[Snake]] for getting me to play. If it weren't for his presence in ''Brawl'', I probably wouldn't be writing this page. Back then, I thought Nintendo made dumb games for kids and stuff (don't worry, I've changed my mind!). Naturally, Snake getting cut from ''SSB4'' has disappointed me, but luckily, I've warmed up to the other characters, and have since enjoyed playing games such as ''Fire Emblem'' and [[EarthBound (game)|''EarthBound'']].

I am probably one of only a small amount of people who plays using the Wii Remote and Nunchuck. I am also one of the only people who would enjoy seeing [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Optimus_Prime_%28G1%29 Optimus Prime] added to Smash. Yes, the chance of him being in Smash is pretty much impossible (you thought [[Ridley]] was too big). Nevertheless, I thought of Optimus's whole moveset.

I haven't played ''Melee'' in years, but I've seen lots of cool tournament videos for it. I believe ''Melee'' is the most fun game in the series to watch tournament matches for. If I played it again, I would enjoy it, considering it was the basis for ''Project M''. If anyone would rather play ''Melee'' than ''Project M'', I would understand, but I would rather play ''Project M'' because it has the same great gameplay and more content.

I love ''Project M''. I used to dislike it, but thanks to me doing fairly well with Zelda in the mod, I got into it. Eventually, I started maining Ness. I personally think I'm better with PM Ness than any other character in any Smash game. ''Project M'' got even better when my friend told me how to replace the music files. I have put in many ''EarthBound/Mother'' songs and many ''Ace Combat'' songs, among other things. My personal favorite is [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ6ABV_Q9qU Agnus Dei] from ''Ace Combat 4'', which I put on Final Destination. You should listen to it sometime. I just want to know how to change song names. If anyone knows how to do that, and tells me how, I would be thankful! ''Project M'' has ceased development, but I remain hopeful that others will continue working on interesting ''Brawl'' mods.  
I enjoy playing ''Project M''. What I really like about modding ''Brawl'' is that you can really do whatever you want. For example, by replacing music files, I have put in many ''EarthBound/Mother'' songs and many ''Ace Combat'' songs, among other things. My personal favorite is [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ6ABV_Q9qU Agnus Dei] from ''Ace Combat 4'', which I put on Final Destination. You should listen to it sometime.

''Project M'' has ceased development, and I am disappointed that the community does not allow [[Lyn]] and [[Knuckles]] to be used in competitive gameplay. To me, that would be similar to competitive ''Smash 4'', but with the DLC characters being banned.


===''Smash 4''===
===''Smash 4''===
It's been a while since ''Smash 4'' was released, and this is what I have to say about the game: While ''Smash 4'' is certainly no ''Melee'' in terms of speed or easily strung combos, there are some features that do give it potential for good competitive play.
I really like playing ''Smash 4''. It's not as difficult as ''Melee'' or ''Project M'', but is still challenging. Some great things about ''Smash 4'' include the large roster, the general character balance, and omega stages (still wish there was "no hazards" mode, but what we have is good).  
*The inability to [[L-cancel]] severely punishes you for misplaced aerials. Instead of mashing out as many aerials as possible, the focus in ''Smash 4'' is to time them right.
*While I dislike the inability to [[edge hog]], the game deserves credit for making [[gimping]] harder than ever before (not that it was particularly easy for me in the first place!). You have to really think about how to prevent enemies from recovering in ''Smash 4''.
While winning in ''Melee''/''Project M'' is satisfying, ''Smash 4'' is still satisfying in its own right, and I enjoy playing it. Some great things about ''Smash 4'' include the large roster, the general character balance, and omega stages (still wish there was "no hazards" mode, but what we have is good).

Hello, my name is John. I knew about Smash back in 2009, but it was only until the spring of 2014 when my friends really got me into it. Credit goes to Snake for getting me to play. If it weren't for his presence in Brawl, I probably wouldn't be writing this page. Back then, I thought Nintendo made dumb games for kids and stuff. Naturally, Snake getting cut from SSB4 has disappointed me, but luckily, I've warmed up to the other characters, and have since enjoyed playing games such as Fire Emblem and EarthBound.

I am probably one of only a small amount of people who plays using the Wii Remote with Nunchuck. I am also one of the only people who would enjoy seeing Optimus Prime added to Smash. Yes, the chance of him being in Smash is pretty much impossible (you thought Ridley was too big). Nevertheless, I thought of Optimus's whole moveset. Here it is.

My opinions on the Smash games I've played

Melee

I haven't played Melee in years, but I've seen lots of cool tournament videos for it. I believe Melee is the most fun game in the series to watch competitively. If I played it again, I would enjoy it, considering it was the basis for Project M.

Brawl

I don't dislike Brawl, especially since it was my first Smash game I was really into, but nowadays, I think it is too slow. That said, I don't think it is fair to compare Brawl to Melee, considering how radically different both games are. It's like comparing apples to oranges. I can respect the chess like nature of competitive Brawl matches, and the skill needed to pull off some of the advanced techniques, but I dislike the game's campy nature and the lack of character balance. If I'm going to play a Smash game nowadays, I would rather play one other than Brawl, although I still occasionally have fun with it.

Project M

I enjoy playing Project M. What I really like about modding Brawl is that you can really do whatever you want. For example, by replacing music files, I have put in many EarthBound/Mother songs and many Ace Combat songs, among other things. My personal favorite is Agnus Dei from Ace Combat 4, which I put on Final Destination. You should listen to it sometime. I just want to know how to change song names. If anyone knows how to do that, and tells me how, I would be thankful! Project M has ceased development, and I am disappointed that the community does not allow Lyn and Knuckles to be used in competitive gameplay. To me, that would be similar to competitive Smash 4, but with the DLC characters being banned.

Smash 4

I really like playing Smash 4. It's not as difficult as Melee or Project M, but is still challenging. Some great things about Smash 4 include the large roster, the general character balance, and omega stages (still wish there was "no hazards" mode, but what we have is good).

There are some problems though:

  • Fox's and Ness's new voices are terrible. Also, in my opinion, Ness looks a bit creepy. His face lost color and his eyes are kind of blank.
  • Some new characters. I don't think Palutena, Dark Pit (yes, I know he was a clone, but still), and Wii Fit Trainer are good additions to the game in terms of valuable Nintendo characters. I also don't think Zero Suit Samus or Toon Link needed to return. Little Mac and Villager probably deserve to be in the game, but their movesets seem to be designed to be cheap. They rely on a campy playstyle that isn't too fun to play against.
  • Snake and Wolf were cut...
  • The Kid Icarus and new Star Fox Smash Taunts. They are SO annoying lol.
  • I love me some Pac-Man, but I am disappointed by his moveset. It should have been based off of the Pac-Man World series.
  • Smash Tour was a waste of development time. Also, I dislike Wii U Classic Mode. It is really random and boring to me. It's a shame all of the trophies couldn't be in the Wii U game...
  • Where are Big Blue and Fourside? (New Pork City would have been good for 8 Player Smash, in any case)
  • The new custom stage builder is great, but they should have kept the ability to just put down some basic blocks as well as the new stuff for times when you don't want to mess around with tracing or making the ledges grabable.

Competency Charts

Taken from Toomai. Thanks for the template! These are mostly based off of how well I do with a character, but characters I dislike playing as will be lower. Characters are ordered by universe.
