Link, Fox, and many others nerfed?

[Lahlooooouh]

I think for the most part the game is really balanced. They did a good job in balancing it. Plus before they actually made fox a bit too good. He is still good. Fox was number one on the tier list in melee.. that was just too uneven.. really. Links changes aren't too big of a deal. If anything I think falcos lazer shouldn't have super long range and be able to stun also. That is kinda not fair.

*******************SPOILER CHAR ALERT**************














back in melee i'd use ganon a lot
but he's like HALF his speed
i don't mind the shorter down B,
but he's just to slow to use now DX
it made me pretty mad...
in melee he as just fast enouf
but now i think he's inusable

also,i notice brawl is slower in genral compaired to melee
but im still mad about ganon xD

I thnk the way ganon runs in this game is hilarious

lol...Nerfed...Funny word...

...Ahem. Anyways, I've noticed Samus is slower, but stronger. Other than her, I haven't seen any other changes.

I think we should all just focus on the fact that brawl is a new game... you have to break your melee habits which is the hardest thing to do out of everything... dramallama

Have you unlocked Toon Link? He's a great alternative. It seems he's better all around: speed, strength, etc..

Young Link used to be my best!!! gonk
But Toon Link is really nothing like him... cry

And Samus is so much stronger! eek
Slow people will get owned by her uber powerful missles...

And I was getting good with Shiek on Melee after a lot of practice and when I went to play Brawl... I got whipped! She is much heavyer, slower, and weaker! Only her attacks are faster, but the short range ruins that too. There's no reason to use old characters anymore... Only way to win is to go with the new ones.

The biggest nerf is DEFINITELY Captain Falcon. He is horrible now.

On the flip side, Game&Watch got a massive buff, as did Zelda.
