Interesting concept, In SSB defense is a pre-emptive strategy, but in PSASBR it is secondary because you only need to go on the defensive once someone has super. As in the match starts out full offense and then switches to opportunities of defense until it is safe to go back into offense.

In SSB it did seem you could be penalized for offensive tactics, as in placing yourself into danger to do damage. Sometimes it worked out, sometimes it didn't. Opportunity to avoid damage by staying out of the action, usually paid off...until other caught on and teamed up against you...which is kind of lame. SSB is a great game though and I don't see any reason PSASBR won't be.


Pretty much for the vast majority of the match you MUST play offensively, which makes the player have shallow strategies.

It may be shallow, but perhaps it is more balanced? I wouldn't really call SSB being diverse in strategy to compare, it's either stay out of the action or be in the action. In PS All Stars its either be in the action avoid the action. Kind of similar without the brawler equivelent of camping. Are you a camper in SSB?


You're serious? There are so many strategies I use in SSB, if I had to count there would be at LEAST 5 major strategies I use with Link and that's only one character. And you can't camp in a 1v1 on a balanced/nice sized map, and we can't judge 1v1s in All Stars yet sadly because we only have free for all.


There is no reason to rule PSASBR and not being just as diverse in strategy. Characters use different attacks, their supers are different. Some have more defensive moves, some more offensive move. Close range and far range. Some of the maps might not be as big as the ones in the beta. It's understandable to use SSB as the standard comparison for this game, it's a great game and PSASBR seem to hold a candle to it.

Just wondering what would those 5 strategies be?



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
