    I personally love Smash 4.
    It's what got me into competitive Smash before Ultimate got me out of it. All the games in the series do things right and wrong, and the rights in 4 just felt better to me. Was it a balanced game? Not damn shot. Was it a game where characters actually had combos even if some of them were cheesy as hell (I'm looking at you Mario uptilt into itself 30 times)? Absolutely. I think if you took the tiny bit more serious balancing (lul) that Ultimate had and put it into Smash 4 with 30 less characters you could have the best game in the series. That said I'm a Robin player so I have a lot of bias towards the game that introduced my main and also let me combo into super crazy shit/actually use projectiles to punish shielding unlink Ultimate which is just gimmick central featuring non-stop aerials.

      My suggestion would be to keep the whole “preferred rulesets” matchmaking option, but also bring back For Glory as a fixed mode that strictly uses competitive-like rules (and just cut GSP out of the equation altogether, because it causes way too many of the core problems of Ultimate online, and is probably the main reason why you can’t freely switch characters when rematching)

    it's so weird to me that everyone agreed that smash4 is the most volatile smash game where people lost their stocks to cheese at sub-50 percents all the time but nobody wanted to make the call to switch to a 3-stock meta. l get that the game itself was pretty slow-paced, but it now if you get cheesed it's half your game down the drain which seems a bit excessive for how common it was to get cheesed

    Main thing for me with smash 4 is that not only did it feel bad to play competitively, but there was nothing to do casually. Brawl has subspace, melee has adventure mode, ultimate has world of light (and even if you dont like world of light because it sucks, at least the gameplay is smooth). Meanwhile, smash 4 had a crappy mario party knock off, and collectable custom moves that took way too long to unlock.

    I was a smash 4 defender for a long time, but when I started playing ultimate it just opened my eyes to how bad smash 4 was. People say DLC ruined the game? NAH! That game had some of the dumbest and most ridiculous things to play around. People forget that bowser and dk played exactly the same yet everyone (including me at the time) got hyped to see the same cargo throw into up air or upthrow into upair combo again and again and again. People will forget that you could not be considered a solid character unless you were DLC if you didnt have a strong grab game because of how broken shield was. People act like perfect pivots was this amazing thing, even though 90% of the competitive player base never even bothered to use it because it was incredibly impractical in majority of situations outside of a couple. Ultimate is just so much better and no matter what Mr.R says I will not be gas lit into thinking it was a good game

      what I mean by eSports killing it is that the community could have kept going on the last released version of PM and it could have surpassed Melee with enough community support, but the community pretended to hate "illegal" mods as much as Nintendo does, delist the game from twitch, and exclude from all the major tournaments in the years Melee was absolutely blowing up and Smash 4 was brand new.

    I think I'll say Melee is still the best competitive Smash game to exist. I don't think anyone can argue after Ultimate's DLC lame characters, but I'd still rank Smash4 as one of the most fun for me.
    Although I still think I hold that opinion specifically because of Steve, Kazuya and Sonic in Ultimate. If we didn't have really lame characters in Ultimate, I probably wouldn't be saying this. I'd take Smash4 Cloud over the meta we currently have in Ultimate.

    7:14 The character expression issue is something Smash struggles with in general. Characters feel super formulaic when they aren’t doing one-to-one moves from their games and it starts to become a quantity over quality issue when you have characters like Ganon sharing animations with Ike and Cloud for some reason. Other platform fighters like Rivals and NASB try to give more player expression with a more limited roster, the former doing so with each character having unique interactions with the stage and how they control space and the latter doing so with the whole meter system. I truly think the only way Smash could evolve past this is by redoing the entire roster move-wise and cutting it at least in half for the next game.

I used to lovc playing zss in smash 4, pressuring peoples getup options from ledges was such a mind game, hold the ledge to long i'd trumph to back air, nuetral getup and not shield down smash into flip kick. As much as we harp on smash 4 for being too defensive, i'd argue smash ultimate's OoS options just make it even easier to just turtle back and play reactive rather than predictive.

Plus why are people acting like jank isn’t fun? That shit will make up for a different scenario 24/7 and keep the game interesting. Besides, the combos were way, way cooler than Ult. Genuinely haven’t seen many draw-dropping combos in Ult at all, whereas there’s many in Smash 4. Watch a Zenyou highlight reel from Smash 4 for example - shit like that will never happen in Ultimate as the game is so much less fluid.

If smash 4 was actively played still then sure the competitive scene might be better without her. However if you have a one off tourney to fool around in an old smash game it seems like a waste not to get the full experience cause it's to see the fun wacky shit again. It would be the same deal if you ran a brawl event but banned meta knight. A ton of people want to play/see MK/Bayo to see/experience the BS again or for the 1st time if a one off event like this is held.

"Oh wow bayonetta killed me at 0% 4 is so thrash!" And yet ultimate is filled with 0 to death characters such as luigi and kazuya, and while you may point out kazuya being hard in execution makes up for it, it doesn't erase the fact it is a pretty flawed gameplay philosophy. What im trying to come with this is that people jump quick to sh*t on 4 but apparently ultimate doesn't recieve such harsh treatment, is it really that much of an improvement over 4 or yall just like it cuz is the new game?

      I mean, Ultimate has the most characters, stages, music, etc., and that’s really all that matters for a lot of people

      @@jomaq9233 so? Content doesn't equal gameplay quality. I don't see people ranting about meele for having fewer characters/stages in comprasion to modern smash games. Im talking about a gameplay perspective and how people are apparently so quick to point out 4 gameplay flaws while ignoring ultimate , not content.

      @@Bike-chan I mean, Ultimate’s gameplay flaws are also less glaring than 4’s… which was also less glaring than Brawl’s, the point is, there were improvements over time (wonky DLC shenanigans aside)

      @@jomaq9233 saying ultimate flaws are less glaring is pretty debatable, but i respect your opinion. After all, both games are meant to play differently, so it all depends with which one you feel more comfortable playing. (Even through people just seem to overhate 4 gameplay as if ultimate wasn't very flawed either).

      @@Bike-chan I mean, I usually look at game sequels with a “does the new stuff that’s here compensate for what isn’t here anymore?”, and imo, the stuff that Smash 4 does better isn’t really enough to compensate for the stuff it’s missing compared to Ultimate (also, being able to freely select music tracks for stages along side the my music feature is an underrated feature)
