It's been weeks and days since i've done this type of topic, though it's finally time again to do this. Whereas a Lot of 64 and Melee as well as a decent amount of Brawl Veterans are super problematic in execution, Smash 4 Veteran Roster is not like that (for the most part). Almost every Smash 4 newcomer is done well (again, for the most part) and a lot of the ones I would change only have incredibly minor changes such as a single move or an aesthetic change like new alternate costumes.

Now then, Let's again get started.

Previously, I covered all of the changes I'd make to the Smash 64 characters and the Melee characters, which means that now, it's time for me to look at all of the Brawl characters and think about the changes I'd make to their movesets.

Kinda neat looking tech

Figure I'll try and remember to toss the Techmas videos up here since this community is pretty dead. Maybe it will spawn some conversation.

Nintendo just released these guidelines around running a “community” tournament. In other words, an unlicensed tournament. Limiting the player cap to 200 (300 for online), no profit allowed, entry fees must be under $15 USD, must use Nintendo online servers (no Slippi), and some other stuff.

Not sure which major tournaments from this last year had a license and which didn’t, but I remember the Smash World Tour fiasco and Panda’s implosion. I know Hbox said he’s going to try to keep running Coinbox until Nintendo themselves tells him to stop in writing, but I wonder how this will affect other big TOs. How many of them are still trying to sneak under the radar unlicensed?

Honestly, it’s BS how Nintendo treats their competitive communities

Sorry for the picture of a screen but there's no way I'm taking my SD card out just for this.

Just a general question for people who are playing more than just occasionally. I'm trying to learn the game enough to at least take part in local events/tournaments as a way to develop a hobbie and meet people, but I'm not sure how to go from just dabbling to actually becoming decent.
I went through the "Art of Smash" video series on Youtube, and now I just play online in public arenas with random characters to get familiar with them, but it doesn't feel like it's really helping get better, mainly because of the online being so bad (even on a 2Gbps fibre connection it feels like I'm playing in slomo).
What do you guys do to become better?

Reward from backing the original project. Good to have the collection complete. Re-watch (and a first watch of Metagame) might be in order.
