I've heard that Wave dashing is officially gone from Brawl. Apparently, you can no longer control your air dodge thus making wave dashing impossible. I had a feeling they'd do something like this. Though I don't have proof to confirm this, it's just what I've heard from people who played the beta.

Yeah, I've heard that, too. Glad they fixed it.

Good. I tire of "hardcore tactics" in a Melee brawler.

Well, if you watch Pros, they don't wavedash a lot. It's not really all that useful, it's only good for mindgames. Tournament play is mostly about knowing your combos and proper timing. Not really going to miss wavedashing but losing it came at a price. I loved being able to control my airdodge, it was very handy being able to dodge up for extra height or just to confuse someone when trying to get back on the stage. I think it would've been smarter if they had made it so you didn't instantly recover if you hit the ground from an airdodge thus getting rid of wavedashing but keeping the element of controlling your airdodge.

Mini-Megaton? Gray Fox is an assist. I guess that pretty much confirms Tails will be one as well.

It certainly opens up the floodgates. Tails AT confirmed.

I find a lot of his wording in this update a little strange. The fact that he openly admits at wishing he were a playable character is pretty odd. Probably just Sakurai being honest in his comments again, though.

Yeah, it's like "Uh...aren't you the one...making the game? You could of made him playable if you wanted!" He's just a big tease is what he is.

I guess Ness is really out.

Lucas even has two of the exact same moves. Ness is finished.

Aggrivates me so much, I loved Ness. He was such a fun character to play.

...but...Lucas is practically the same character. That's the point.

Subtle differences mean a lot to Smash players, I guess you could say.

I think Gray Fox has been the most exciting thing we've seen.

This week? Easily.

Pretty average week, but we did get some really exciting ones for awhile there, so we can't complain too much.

They have the same B moves but I like the distance on the psy moves, that's what made Ness so good. Lucas doesn't have those moves.

Ness was good? Not in Melee he wasn't.

I thought the common consensus was that Ness got nerfed to hell in Melee.
