which fighting game takes the most skill?

How is no combos a good thing? That makes it so defence and camping is the only option. Due to the lack of combos, nothing can be gained by approaching someone. And with the broken defensive options, you'll only get destroyed if you try. The only way to win consistently is camping. Brawl's engine is just broken in that way.

The skill in this game is at a minimum; tech skill flat out doesn't exist. You trade hits and that's it. That's the best you can hope for. Brawl is a shallow, noob-friendly game where skill is at a minimum. A beginer player could even take a stock or two away from a skilled player. That should not be happening. This is the only fighting where that shit does happen. I have no problem destroying people in other fighting games, but it's impossible in this game.

Look at a combo as a single move that deals X damage (a good bit more than most other moves).

When your opponent makes a mistake, you combo them right? You deal X damage.

In translation, when your opponent makes a mistake you, you deal X damage to them.

The only difference in SSB is that moves don't deal tons of "damage" in the same manner technical fighters do so you cannot simply punish the opponent with "damage." You need other techniques like edge guarding, short hopping, and more to hurt the opponents. In a match a while back, I killed Luin's Lucas in two hits. TWO hits.

I like the fact that SSBB matches are more than "Block. Block. Opening! COMBO! COMBO! Win." ^_^

 

Goddamn it I wish my wireless was working so I could finally face you
