Well marth, shiek, falco, fox, jigglypuff and maybe peach you mean. Still, if only 5-6 characters are viable that's not a good thing.
>>
>>321305819

Fox being the only viable character is only at the highest tiers of play, and currently no one is at that level.

Also 4's entire roster isn't viable for tournament play, no matter how good you are at reads, your ganon is never winning a major tournament.

That's entirely the point.

If that Ganon had a great day, he can win.

That is wrong especially for games to smash 4/brawl. One of the biggest issues for characters like ganon is that they have to work super hard just to land 1 hit. That would be sorta ok if there was a good reward for it, but in smash 4/brawl there's not. So you're stuck with a character that has to make the hardest of reads just to do any kind of damage, never mind killing. This just straight up doesn't work the better people get at the game. Even if ganon is 100% on point, he still stands a good chance of losing to zss/sheik/mario because they dominate at getting the single hit (aka neutral) AND get good rewards for it.

I love how you can tell the scrubs by how they're thinking of characters versus characters instead of players versus players.
M2K plays Fox and Armada plays Fox.
M2K has no patience and will get bodied by Hungrybox playing Jiggs and planking.
Armada reads Hbox like a book and stomps him every single time.
Nobody uses a character's full moveset all the time and plays the exact same as anyone else anyways.
Complaining about Foxes is like complaining about seeing too many Sentinels choose the mango color, it's just a crybaby nitpick from sore losers supporting a noncompetitive game.
But of course Tr4sh is literally a community of casual elitists so I suspect they won't understand this anyways.

People are playing him right, he's just not a good character. At a certain point it doesn't matter how good you are if the character you're playing just can't compete with other characters in terms of options, ability, etc.
>>
>>321305221
It's not insecurity. It's just when you're playing something that has such a high skill requirement, and you see people playing something with LESS options and is SLOWER all around, you have to wonder: why the fuck would anyone choose to play that instead?

If any other game was released and had all the technical aspects cut, /v/ would lose its shit over it, but not when it comes to smash.

They're trying for sure. You need a traditional fighting game mindset to understand where he accels at but then you need to know how to play smash.

No one who can place in a major in a traditional fighting game is really playing smash lets be honest.

My close friend was a ranked Melee player in teams and solo and quit smash for SF4. He recently placed Top 8 at a major. We still play smash casually and he's with me on my stance on Ganon.

We also agree we're never gonna see it happen either
>>
>>321310715

Fox is objectively the best character, idiot.
All the pros have a pocket/secondary Fox or main fox.
>>
>>321304803
The same way any faggot that play any smash game competevely can.
>>
>>321310294
You're right in that Smash 4 has a lot of diversity, but Melee isn't actually that bad itself and people understate the hell out of it. It's not even those two, plus Sheik and Marth too, you got Peach, Captain Falcon, PIKACHU (who people counted out until fairly recently iirc), Samus, Ice Climbers, Jigglypuff, Dr. Mario, even Ganondorf is actually pretty decent in Melee. And AMSA has been doing fantastic things with Yoshi that people haven't ever even seen.

it's kind of shocking how the patterns you see in the MvC2 community repeat themselves in melee.

>>321311340
He doesn't work in Smash's environment. A perfect Ganon vs a perfect Sheik will ALWAYS lose.
>>
>>321305130
Smash is all about momentum and nerves. Westballz suicides for dair kills in Melee for example because it fucks with people. There are lots of blind spots in edgeguarding depending on the match-up, but knowing your opponent with a stock lead will sacrifice an 80% stock to gimp you in an unrecoverable edgeguard just to beat you even faster can really get in your head. It's a big sign of disrespect and makes you feel like you're never safe.

I certainly hope this isn't what you consider to be top tier in smash 4. Shiek, ZSS, Pikachu, Sonic, and Rosaluma are seperate from everyone else outside of that is Ness, Mario, Diddy,Luigi, Ryu, and Meta Knight. Fox is strongly debatable

He's not broken, but he's good now. Solid punish game with some "touch of death"-esque combos.

Abadongo, Leo, Tyrant, and many others have proven this.

He's very viable.

>>321311445
But most of those characters are rep'd by one person. And these players don't get top results. Usually, you get the top 6-8 players playing with Spacies, Marth, or Puff. Armada plays more Fox than Peach now, I think. The only entries that I noticed that were increasing have been Samuses in Plup and, I think, Duck. Axe is still repping Pika. Throw in the occasional Shiek from Shroomed or M2K, and that's potentially all the characters you'll see in a top 16. Other characters may show up, but they usually get the vulpine dick.
>>
>>321312534

>>321312175

>>321313000
I dunno man, gimmicky movesets kind of put me off playing characters.
The design ethic for movesets seems to change with every game, if a straightforward character like Pikachu was added in Smash 4 his moveset would probably be so much different.
>>
>>321313586
Naturally since they'd have more to work with. In 64 and Melee Pikachu had two games for move set inspiration which was very limited'. Making a 2D sprite back in 64 into a 3D fighter was quite the accomplishment especially given the fact he walks on all fours. If anything he'd probably use Iron Tail instead of Skull Bash for side B and villager like balloons to for up B to simulate Fly (a move he can learn by event)
>>
>>321311785
No.
>>
>>321313458
Brawl died long before 4 came out

>/v/ supports a guy that intentionally fucks up the physics in his own games because good physics are too competitive for him

Hope you don't expect to have momentum on your running jump. Sakurai will add that as DLC for the next Smash game.
>>
>>321311086
>why the fuck would anyone choose to play that instead?

Maybe because the roster isn't locked to like 6 characters?

Melee is the Marvel vs Capcom 2 of Smash Bros.

Only difference is that the Marvel fans eventually switched to the newest game because the more balanced roster opens more opportunity to see some creative matches besides lasers and up throw into up air.

This, Apex 2013 (~22 months before SSB4 Wii U) was pretty much the last time Brawl was on an equal footing with Melee and it was all downhill from there. Its decline arguably started even earlier than that because Brawl had 33% more entrants than Melee at Apex 2012.

Both of those fights in that OP image are an absolute disgrace and the players should be executed for violating the Laws of Smash. Smash is a PARTY GAME, as explicitly stated by Lord Sakurai himself.

melee's viable roster

fox, falco, marth, sheik, falcon, pikachu, peach, puff, yoshi, ice climbers, samus, and young link.

I play more MvC2 than melee. Forgot strider and doom, though.

Yes, doc is viable.

After watching a bunch of Melee videos, Smash 4 looks like it runs underwater.
>>
>>321314819
Besides what >>321318981 said about the roster, the change from MvC2 to 3 was not as mechanically drastic as Melee to Brawl and 4. It's like going from Morrowind to Skyrim in terms of game features. You're left wondering "how did this happen and why do people praise it?"

I'm not gonna complain about downthrow upair. In fact, I'm glad it exists cause it's nearly the only fucking combo in the game. The ONLY redeeming factor actually is downthrow upair. The game is fucking shit garbage without combos and would benefit from more. All they have to do is reduce the massive knockback on everything, reduce all the ridiculous fucking end frames on most of peoples moves, and add a tiny more bit of hitstun and it would probably be a really fun game. Instead, you're stuck with the only 'good' combo in the game, downthrow upair, which leads to stale ass gameplay.

My main complaints are about rage and the shitty hitboxes, but I'm not getting into that.

Oh, and the only "viable" characters are ZSS and Sheik, maybe Ryu and Rosa. The rest will just get destroyed by those 4, no question. Smash 4 will have an even smaller list of viable characters than Melee when it's all said and done because they don't even have movement mechanics or other tech to help them compete. Enjoy your dead game.

I'm pretty sure all of Hax's "viable" plus Doc and Young Link have made top 8 at majors (~300+ entrants) in the past year. Maybe Ganondorf, but that might've been at smaller scale tournaments.

The Ganon thing started with Melee, it's just crept in to every single Smash game now.

A Ganondorf can take the smart option in any Smash game and yet people watching will go "OH THE FUCKING DISRESPECT I JUST CAME"

>>321320770
If you're counting smaller scale tournaments then literally every fighting game has its list of viable characters expand.

Wii U diehards on /v/ are only like that because they are constantly spat on and belittled for having any faith in Nintendo at any given time. After years and years of divisive consoleshit it ended up mostly being PS diehards shitting all over Nintendo, Nintendo fans being constantly defensive, and PC "master race" types just stealing their games and mocking everyone else for not being able to steal/mod their games.

>>321321509
>>321321609
Aside from the tournament threads with people who enjoy the game playing in it many of the threads made about Smash 4 do nothing but criticize it. What's with this idea that /v/ ignores its flaws and prefers it over Melee when it seems pretty obvious to me that most of /v/ prefers Melee?
>>
>>321306150
You are simplifying the issue with your statement about reads that allows people to try and counter it with >>321306907 which is very wrong.


It's not JUST the reads that matter, it is frame data.
Ganon can not take advantage of actual consistent things or even create openings.

>>321306907
The issue with making correct reads all the time is that it's not possible.
On top of this, a character that can take advantage of more things, have more chances at making good reads and better reads and apply pressure or punish things more effectively is not consistently placing despite doing much better than Ganon can with it.

Talking about Captain Falcon just so you know

It is not about getting 5 hits in to take a stock.
It's about how well you can get those five hits in to take a stock. And Ganondorf is not good at that, which is why he is considered a bad character.

It's not Meleefags specifically.

The people who shit on Melee and the people who shit on Smash 4 are actually shit at the game they play and think shitting on the "opposing game" will compensate for that and make them look big. This is especially true for shitty Melee players. "well at least I don't play Tr4sh! LOL!"

TL;DR /v/ sucks at video games.

>why the fuck would anyone choose to play that instead?
Same reason why some people prefer to play SF3 to ST, SFV to SF4, 2002UM to 98UM.
Because they want to. Although sometimes players would try newer games and end up not liking the game and go back to their game of choice. Other times the game just "clicks" with someone.
Although there are debates concerning the quality of these games in the FGC, it never reaches the turdfest that Meleefags make.

You see, if the game isn't 100% identical to Melee, they'll sperg out. They'll throw a fit if the characters can't move like a kid with severe ADD and get flustered if you even imply that another game can have a meta because apparently Melee is the only game that can have it. Add to the mix that Sm4shfags are equally as autistic, they to start to shit fling and talk shit, leading to quality Smash threads like these.

unfortunately tr4sh is going to stick around longer than brawl. Brawl virtually had no online and the graphical jump from melee to brawl wasnt big enough to warrant playing it. But melee is 10+ years old, tr4sh is more balanced than brawl, maybe a little more fun, decent online

tr4sh is sticking around until sma5h

>that many viable characters in mvc2
Maybe in the lowest level of play, realistically only the four god tier characters would be seen in a tournament, possibly some top tiers like Cyclops, doom, strider or the other one depending on the players. Honestly I don't care about diversity as long as a game's mechanics are deep and the it is both interesting to watch and play. For a game as old as melee is the character diversity is actually amazing.
>>
>>321324257
Most of /v/'s Melee fanbase either sucks at Melee or doesn't even play it, preferring to just watch streams.

I'm not saying that this is the only type of person who dislikes Smash 4, I'm just saying that's the only person who bothers to throw around the word "Tr4sh" anymore. It stopped being funny to make fun of Smash 4 like a week after it came out, most people actually decent at video games just leave the game they don't play alone and play the game they do play, the only people I see shit on Smash 4 like that anymore are massive shitters or people who shittalk anyone and anything, meaning it isn't as if Smash 4 is their only target.

That's why Leffen is really the only top player to openly mock Smash 4, because Leffen openly mocks everyone, being a dick is his shtick.
>>
>>321324314
I definitely think 4 will have way more longevity than Brawl, but it'll be more of a plateau compared to Brawl's rise (above Melee) to fall (literally deader than 64).
>>
>>321316996

Play Melee for frame perfect input and hard reads with a 2D platformer.

Play fighting games for memorizing inputs and sluggish set moves.

Play Brawl or Brawl 2 for retarded platforming, hold left or right to recover, and momentumless jumping in a snowflake of a simplified platformer.

Melee is rally racing while Tr4sh is commuting in a Prius.
>>
>>321324648
The god characters are always dominant but you sometimes see one of the characters swapped out for a specific assist, like Cyclops you mentioned. Same for Psylocke.
Captain Commando also pops up from time to time.

At least the scene is Smash 4 seems to be getting more variety in characters. Especially Trela's Ryu, its a beast from what I have seen of it. It would be nice if someone other then Fox won a Melee major. I'm sorry if saying this upsets anyone.

>>
>>321305819
I prefer 4 to Fox Onlee but this is incorrect, Smash 4 just has more tiers than 'Fox and Marth' tier and 'Unviable' tier.
>>
>>321312070
Fox has amazing frame data, but lacks (hard to see coming) kill options and a good recovery, those hold him back. Not to mention his fast fall makes him combo food despite being so light.

I think he's the top of the A tier, with S being Sheik, Pika, ZSS, Rosa, and A starting with Fox. Big gap between Sheik and Rosa though.

I consider Fox to really more between low S and high A. Sonic, Mario, Diddy, Ryu and that big chunk of characters comes next.

Just my opinion as a Fox main. He has too many weakness to be S, but too many strengths to be grouped with most of A.

Smash 64 is still infinitely more fun than the shitheaps that have been produced under sakurai's development leadership

Stop being retarded. Fox is so easy to Counter in melee.

Unless you are fighting somebody who can waveshine and L Cancel everything, you're up for a fight with odds better in your favor.

>How can tr4sh players compete.

There's still things like:
>Teching out of grabs
>Teching spikes
>Teching jab resets
>Stalling
>Spiking
>Reverse kill moves
>DI mix ups
>Stage spiking

But smash 4 does have that awful rage mechanic, and it's mostly 4glory players that either start abusing shields, projectiles, grabs, or all 3 just to stall and piss other players off.

If you unironically main:
>Pitt/ Edge Pitt
>Ness
>Sonic
>Toon Link
>Link
>Little Mac

You're a shitter and always will be.

>>321327592
Why does tr4sh "pros" look like retarded children?
>>
>>321327858
Look up more of his matches if you are interested. If he catches someone at decent percent, his Ryu can jab lock you to build up damage, and lead it into a true shoryukan to instant kill. Its really amazing, I think he is why Ryu is now in the same tier as Sheik is.
