I could never get into Smash, but then again I never tried that hard. Love me some Street Fighter but I get destroyed when playing online.

People keep claiming that there is depth in Smash Bros. Can someone please explain to me where the depth is because it seemed pretty simplistic to me? I'm not trolling I'm being serious because I have a Wii U and would love a great fighter to go with it.

It is very hard to explain, you kinda need to get into competitive smash to understand the depth

Melee was the most technical with Lag cancelling, wave dashing etc.

But in general Smash bros has many nuances that create depth similar to many fighters out there - spacing, frame counting, hit boxes, edge guarding, stage advantages, matchups etc.

I think what sets smash bros apart is that each character has their own unique techniques and strategies

Watch this, it might be a good example

Thanks. Looks interesting. I might grab a copy of one of the older games.
