Let's see how our modder friend who tried to convert Ultimate to Melee at the risk of bricking his Switch is doing.
Woah, hey. You can beat quickplay Belmonts by using your shield button. Just play arenas if they make you that upset.
"Why doesn't Ultimate have long combo chains and fast gameplay? I hate it."
"Pichu's combo chains are too long and he's too fast. I hate it"
At least he's finally being honest, though--but at the cost of a telling revelation:
He says he plays Game and Watch, who is one of the worst characters in Melee. He's fun casually (or against low level players), but when you play serious players who actively try to bait you out, punish you, and space you, he's probably one of the least fun characters to play (for a variety of reasons--the biggest one being that his shield literally doesn't work). Say what you want as to how competitive play in essence removes a lot of the fun from the game because of that fact, but that's just how it is.
Which is substantial evidence to suggest that he doesn't actually play at a considerably high level. Which also means that both he and his opponents likewise don't play at a considerably high level. Which means that he's one of the 99% of Melee's fanbase who actually just watch tourneys rather than actually compete or place significantly. In other words, the quintessential stereotype of the Melee fan who goes to tourneys to spectate the same eight players play while they don't actually enter, and spend the rest of the tourney either booing other games, stinking up the place, or both.
Honestly, I kind of like how he checks every box in the "mindless Melee fanboy" criteria. More amusingly, his followers are somehow even more brainless and rabidly devoted to Melee than he is.
