SSBB. Oooooh boy. I see nothing wrong with dodging, although I can only basic dodge. I find that all the characters have at least one overpowered move, even if it is just their Final Smash. Look at the Ice Climbers. I have yet to see them play well at all, but that Iceberg move is one nasty MF on most stages. In the middle, Lucas. Excellent attacks(yes, I do use PK attacks a lot, thank you very much, but everyone else uses goddamn Ike, and Lucas is light.), but his FS is the exact reason dodges are perfectly fine. Then, Snake and Ike. Heavy, decent speed, and extremely powerful attacks, and their FS' will land at least one kill if the player can aim worth shit.
That was just my rant on OPness. You don't have to read it, other than the first sentence. I prefer playing without items, which is for everyone's benefit. Lucas/Fox team/Pit can't heal himself at 16% per shot/reflect laser shots, and other people can't gain more instant kill attacks. A few items are fine, like banana peels, Screw attack badges, lame little things like that. Pokeballs, hammers, bats, gone. Stages don't matter much, I only protest when it comes to Metroid stages. Glitches, hacks, exploits, GTFO mah house, jackass. Thus the barely readable rants end. Thank you your time.
Oh, wait. Yeah, fine, Lucas is a bit cheap, admitted, but again, I have to play with a bunch of guys who only use heavies and Kirbys stone form drop. Find me a heavy that dies under 100% like the rest of us before you flame me.
