True story! I think they just can't adapt to new play styles and a lack of exploits and other nonsense.. Shame really but oh well

This is actually pretty false considering about 60% of the competitive Melee community has started playing Melee in the past 2 years.  I can give you statistics on this if you want, but 2014 was actually Melee's biggest year by a wide margin and it shows the majority of the community is really new to Melee and they simply chose to play Melee over Brawl/SSB4.  I would venture to guess that about 80% of competitive Melee players started playing Melee competitively after the release of Brawl.

Well... Melee has been out for a very long time so of course it will have more new players than SSB4 and Melee has also been played very competitely compared to brawl and brawl had a lot of nonsense about it like that tripping mechnic so of course there would be more Melee players in the past 2 years than in Brawl or SSB4... And not to mention Melee has been in all the big tournaments for a while now and SSB4 just came out a couple of months ago. Lets see what happens in the future however
