Why Brawl- Kicks Ass!

[SiLeNtDo0m]

For those of you who don't know, the point behind the Brawl- codeset is that if everyone is overpowered, no one will be (in fact, the exact slogan is "if it's broken, break it until it's fixed".  What this means is that every character is overpowered to the point where they could all easily take on vBrawl Metaknight without much of a problem, but as a result of this the roster is balanced (think Marvel vs Capcom 3).  However, the thing that sets Brawl- apart are the unique additions given to each character.  Each character has gained a new "gimmick".  One that makes the character feel fresh to play, but still retains the best aspects of the character, allowing vBrawl players to quite easily adjust to the new playstyle aspects.   Here are some videos that I made showing of the majority (not all though) of the characters in Brawl-:

Now for a quick Pros and Cons summary:

Pros

- The pace is almost identical to vBrawl, allowing for easy adjustment.  However, it never feels slow.
- Increased hitstun means that now combos have never been easier and more satisfying to pull off.
- Each character feels deep and varied.  Even the clones (such as Mario and Luigi) have plenty of unique touches to make them feel new
- There is a universal wall jump
- There are a load of cool easter eggs (e.g. some taunts deal damage, some moves have new and interesting effects etc)
- Includes a custom "fixed" CSPs, Battle Portraits and other cool stuff.


Cons

- Some character changes may be jarring at first.
- Whilst increased hitstun is generally a good thing, it means that you can no longer momentum cancel as effectively as before, removing one of the most effective forms of DI
- There aren't very many PSAs that cater to Brawl- at the moment (if I ever go back to doing PSA, I will change that I can assure you).
- No PAL release at the moment (though apparently they are working on one)

does anybody know why this freezes when I'm trying to use it?
or is it just that it doesn't support usbloaders or something:P

[Xyless]

When does it freeze?

[vm19961126]

when I'm trying to run with a character (I tried with many characters, but just the same result with all of them)

Try it with a fresh SD Card, it could be that something else on your SD Card is causing it.

I honestly don't have a favourite, because I find the majority of them really fun to play as (even characters that I never really enjoyed playing as before).

[Albafika]

My favorite is the Triforce (Excluding Toon Link) xD This is the first time I can play the whole 3 and feeling powerful. Other than them, both Ike and Marth, And Pit/Sonic

oh hey I got brawl minus working right now and its awesome xD
I just deleted all my hacks and now I only have brawl minus on my sd card(and a bunch of other stuff like usbloaders riivo etc.)

=D

[Xyless]

Yeah, some extra hacks tend to throw things into the mix that can break stuff.  Glad it's working now!
