Alright I want to talk about Meta Knight. He's fast, he has combo ability, he can rack up damage on his enemies really fast, and he can glide. Cool right? But there has to be some sort of down side to him. Like, for instance, he can't kill his enemy until they're at 100-125%. By that time the Meta Knight player is already at 50-70% and he dies around that percentage pretty easily. Also, he only has about 2-3, maybe 4 killing moves. His final smash is O.K. because it can kill at decent percentages but the range is pretty crappy and it's very easy to dodge.
So what do you guys think?

It's okay for Metaknight to not be able to kill until 100% because he racks up damage so quickly. Sweet-spotted up-b is his best kill move, and if the opponent still lives, Metaknight is a beast edgeguarder. A good Metaknight player will be able to survive until about 170% - just keep applying pressure and know how to DI. About pressure, Metaknight is probably the 2nd best at controlling the field and pressuring the opponent (Snake is better). His tornado is one of the most annoying moves... it's damage racking, has insane priority, and almost impossible to punish if the Metaknight is good. Metaknight's only real down-side is that his recovery can be a problem if he is out of jumps and he is underneath the stage, since his up-b only goes up vertically for a second. Metaknight is also really light and can be KOed against stronger characters such as Donkey Kong, and that's the reason why Metaknight does poorly against him. That's all I got for now.

So you like Metaknight because he is an unbalanced character?

I hate using Marth. I used him because he was good and I was good at him. Characters I like using in Melee are in this order: Link, Falco, Ice Climbers, DK, Ganondorf, Young Link, and Pichu. Everyone else is cool but those are my favorites.

Mewtwo had an awkward learning curve. When I first unlocked Mewtwo I thought he would be sweet to play, because he is the most bad ass pokemon. As time moved on, I hardly played as Mewtwo because he didn't match my play style and he wasn't that much fun to play (in my opinion).

i think they kinda screwed up with mewtwo. they made him a defensive/situational character in an extremely offensive and aggressive smash brothers game.

No offensive, but I think they just gave him a whole bunch of pointless moves. Side-b, down-b, down-air, up-air, up-smash, down-smash (doesn't hit in both directions like all the other characters can do), and he's got slow tilts. He's also really big for his pretty bad attack power so he's easily comboed. Um...he's got a top tier recovery and a top tier roll dodge but that's not going to save him.

I picked SMaus first and never could quite get the hang over anyone else. Everyone hates her for her missle spam in Melee, but i learned to use her without spamming.
I agree that Mewtwo had a steep learning curve, but not impossible.
Also, Melee being unbalanced is better than Brawl being "balanced".

The reason why Samus was considered good was because of missle spam. If it makes you win, then do it. Only noobs that can't dodge will complain.

But I could win WITHOUT spamming, cuz Samus has (had) awesome aerials.

Well, just edgeguard with projectiles. It doesn't matter if the missles hit, it's distracting them and making them worry about getting back to the stage, avoiding missles, and avoiding you once they get back.
