I've been playing Smash on and off for the past few years as well as frequenting this wiki. Due to a lack of game consoles (my parents did not wish to buy any until the Wii), I have played the original SSB and SSBM on my laptop via emulators. Going to a friend's house once in middle school and playing some casual Brawl was what first exposed me to this game series. From that point on, I was captivated by the innovative gameplay, and I started my playing Super Smash Bros. on the Project64 emulator. I was fairly decent at it, although I found it to be a little too simple and combos to be unnecessarily long. I was impressed by Isai's competitive ability, and I soon found that Melee had a much bigger competitive scene. After watching many videos of Ken, Isai, Bombsoldier, Captain Jack, and countless other professionals, I finally got a computer capable of running Gamecube games on the Dolphin Emulator. After many months, I became pretty good at Melee despite having to play on a keyboard (which to me is as natural as using an actual controller). Some of my classmates in high school played on my laptop as well. In high school, my parents finally relented and bought a Wii for my brother and I, and naturally my first game was Brawl. It was in many respects easier than Melee, but nevertheless I found it to be extremely fun and better than Melee as far as competing against others is concerned. I first mained Marth due to my experience with him in Melee (and the fact that Ken was my Smash role model), but I soon grew to know the moveset of each character pretty well and I can play at a decent level with many characters (and I have a few mains now). I've never had the chance to attend a real tournament due to school-related time constraints, but in competitions against my classmates I've usually come out on top. Also, as you might be able to tell from my username, I'm a Metal Gear fan. I like the stealth gameplay, and the storyline is great.

About Me

I live in Nevada, and currently I'm a high school senior. I am currently ranked number one in my class, and I have earned numerous academic awards and gotten a 5 on eight AP exams. That said, I am not at all averse to video games (as many of my classmates initially thought I would be). Smash is probably my favorite series, and I play it at home on the computer and Wii. There's also a Senior Lounge at my school where there's a TV and a Wii, and I've gone in there a few times as a junior and I plan to frequent the place as a senior. I'm better than most of my classmates/relatives at Brawl, even with "bad" characters like Ganondorf. Since I focus a lot of time on academics and sports, I don't have time to go to any Smash tournaments but I follow them pretty closely and I have a pretty extensive knowledge of Brawl's mechanics as well as every character's moveset. Finally, as far as contributions on this wiki go, I am keenly aware of the importance of proper grammar and spelling. I strive to do my best to make myself logical and clear, but of course, I am not perfect (English is actually not even my first language, my parents taught me Chinese first), and I will occassionally make mistakes while typing. Please feel free to correct me if that occurs.

Character Ability Chart

Simple table of the characters I use most. Bottom numbers indicate relative skill level. Hover over the character's image for a short blurb.

Brawl Competency Tiers
Primary Secondary
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
I've played him since Melee, and I have a very extensive knowledge of his moveset. I can also edgeguard with him very well, especially against characters like Fox and Falco.
100
He's my main now, taking Marth's place. While I consider myself pretty good with him, I haven't mastered the art of placing and detonating explosives and I need to work on my C4 recovery. Still, I'm good with his tilts and I know his moveset well. DACUS is also fun, but I don't use it too often.
95
Even though the tier list says he's terrible, and I agree to some extent, but he's just fun to play with. Especially against people who don't know how to react (chaining Flame Choke is fun).
92
Again, a character who isn't very good at all competitively. Still, due to his long prescence in the Smash series, I am extremely familiar with his moveset and he is strong enough so that I can prevail over casual players that can't predict what I'm going to do (e.g. second hit of f-smash).
90
He's insane in 2v2 team matches (especially when team attack is off), with down smash trapping players who don't know what it is and Thunder KO'ing people who don't expect it. His recovery is also very good.
88
I like him as a character, and I can pull off chain throws and meteor smashes without much difficulty. However, I'm not too good with him on the ground.
85
He's one of the first characters I ever played when I picked up the game. I know his moveset well and I can use his aerials to my advantage, but he's just too slow on the ground and I have a tendency to get punished for spamming smashes.
82
A great character in Melee (albeit difficult to master). I still like him due to the fact that I mained him in the original SSB, but I feel that he's also not the same and I don't play him as much anymore.
75
Definitely an overpowered character, and cheap techniques like spamming neutral-b the whole match against my classmates works out too well. Nevertheless, I don't like his playstyle, and although he is good enough on his own that I'm pretty good with him, I don't use him much except to annoy people.
