These Kids Must Be High. Please Tell Me They're Joking...?

Anyone who's played Brawl before (and maybe some that haven't) can point out how ridamnediculous these rules are. @_@

The only fun way to play SSB is without rules.

Well as a competitive Brawler myself I can't say it's the only way, but it's one of the better options.

Mainly. Not the only way, but that's the most fun way.

Playing with ANY restrictions is utterly boring. Except Smash balls. Just kill them entirely, please.

I don't like smash balls because I suck at getting them.
Then rage when I don't and someone else does. xD

Oh man, why even play Smash Bros.? The whole point of Smash Bros. is that is crazy random fun. Not a balanced controlled fighter. If they want that they could play any other fighting game. That Smash Ball rule is ridiculous. And you have to use the same character every time? ...why? Why would anyone want to do that?

I would prefer to keep chain grabs out of my competitive play. Also, items can lag online terribly and when the lag is already bad. They can also get in the way when you're playing competitively and the match could come down to the person who can grab the most items as opposed to the person with the most skill.

This. Except I abuse the fuck out of R.O.B., but I do find it nice to switch to Jiggs or Kirby every once and awhile.

That's just foul play. :l

Also, while we're on the subject of foul play Meta Knight needs to die in a fire...Like, seriously.

Uh... I wouldn't say that. I mean, if you want to load up a GameShark (that's still a thing, right? that's the one I always used back in the day) while you're playing by yourself that's fine, but Pikachu shouldn't be able to fly in multiplayer.

Nope. The cool kids use Action Replay and Homebrew now. Get with the times.

Isn't spamming like this possible in like every fighting game though? *coughstreetfightercough*
I once got 6 kills with sonic's final smash.
It's not specific characters, It's the players fault. When they're ready to have a fair fight then those characters seem more balanced.
My brother and I can have loads of fun battling each other with "spammy" characters, we just agree to stop the cheap kills.
