Summary

Super Smash Bros. Melee is the second installment in the Super Smash Bros. series and the follow-up to the Nintendo 64 title. It includes all playable characters from the first game, and also adds characters from franchises such as Fire Emblem, of which no games had been released outside Japan at the time. Super Smash Bros. Melee builds on the first game by adding new gameplay features and playable characters: it's major focus is the multiplayer mode, while still offering a number of single-player modes.

Defintly played melee the least. Kinda don't like playing it. But yeah no this is like the coolest competitive game. Bowser main.

Pros:
- Pretty much invented the competitive platform fighter.
- Invented the wavedash movement tech.
- More than a decent amount of single player content.
- Good roster size.
- Has a good amount of technical depth.
- Great music and sound design.
- Iconic character select screen.
- First appearances of more than a handful of characters that'd go on to be beloved by many players.
- Has stood the test of time.
- Game speed is fast and fun.
- Character attacks are weighty and impactful.

Cons:
- Very unbalanced. The bottom half of the tier list is so bad they are effectively unplayable in a competitive setting.
- Every top/high tier character has at least 1 overpowered move.
- Barely any of the stages are legal.
- With the exception of Falco, clones in this game are not distinguished enough from their original counter parts, and some (like Dr. Mario) don't even need to exist.
- Weird issues like dash back not really working properly.
- UCF is needed to have an even-playing field.
- Ganondorf's moveset does not fit his character at all.
- Shine should not be frame 1.
- Nearly endless led grab invincibility.
