I neither fear, nor despise.
How is the speed of the new game? Is it a balance between Brawl and Melee?
Do you think competitive Smash will thrive on the new game like it did in Melee, or is it not suited for that crowd?

I feel the game is a lot more balanced than Brawl but two characters are worth noting because they are REALLY powerful overall: Rosalina and Little Mac. The game is great and fun from someone who played a shitload of Melee and quite a bit of Brawl I prefer this game over Brawl by a landslide.

Little Mac is trash.

A lot of the fighting at a high competitive level takes place in the air, so a character that has virtually nothing going for him in the air is very limited to a certain playing style that can easily be countered by other good players.

It's like a shotgun in CoD. Great in CQC, but awful as soon as there's some distance between you and your target. So, if you'd know that all your opponent could use was a shotgun, sticking to open spaces and picking your fights accordingly helps a lot.

At least, that's what I've come to understand about this.
The problem is I haven't played smash much since I had a Gamecube so I am really out of practice and don't know many character combos.
