It's like the same two guys in most of the videos found so far...kinda annoying cause they like to dodge around a lot but they don't get in each others faces.

Plus they leave Assist Trophies, random items, even a Smash Ball untouched, wtf.

Also that last Youtube vid made me feel better about Kirby's FS...Ike had, what, 100% or so and still survived the cook? That's fine with me.

Kirby seems to go up in percentage fast... It was hard to see what was going on but either the guy playinb kirby wasn't great [in any video] or people keep beating kirby up more.

 It was a computer player in that last video...so I'm guessing the two human players were fighting the AI more than each other.

^Ah, that explains it.

Actually can you tell which players are CPU/human when in game?
I would guess you watched which players they chose at the start to tell, but is there something to tell you who is who when fighting (for instance if someone came into the room whilst 2 people were in a brawl, would they be able to tell who was playing who without asking?)

What is the word on the Final Smashes? Do they really add to gameplay, or do you think they are intrusive.

^ i think final smashes are great
everyone would be fighting each other to get the smash ball
so yes I think it adds a lot to gameplay

^^ Probably depends on who is playing. I cant really see them being involved in tournaments and such, but maybe they will be. Its just that some Final Smashes are a lot more powerful than others.

They're high level melee players from Japan. The video's poster's thread, ITP's, can be found here: http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=139250

@Not Using Items: To them, I imagine that such items are uninteresting compared to figuring out how the characters play. Seeing what Assist trophy X does is not as satisfying -- for them -- as developing, say, a strategy as Ike to break out of DDD's chain grabbing.

I love the videos, and we're going to get a lot more, which is awesome. btw i predict...! I DONT KNOW. something stupid... thats for sure.
