Poll: Super Smash Bros: Brawl, Most Overpowered Characters

[ungulateman]

For those people who think Ike is overpowered: I think you've forgotten that offline, Brawl doesn't actually lag. :0

And those who think Sonic is overpowered should stop using items already.

Meta Knight, on the other hand, is the only character in Brawl who more than 3 people on the Interwebs have decided is overpowered.

Anyway, I'm currently busy enjoying Zero Punctuation, so that basically concludes my post.

Have a nice night/day.

Hooray for bringing forums back from the grave!

Ike is easy, wayyyyy too slow to be overpowered. Now Meta Knight on the other hand...

Either way Kirby has got to be my favorite; so cute...so deadly...

 

[Yegargeburble]

As much as I like him, Ike is really a bit too powerful. Ah well.

 

[TaborMallory]

Ike kills with barely a smash attack, let alone final smashes. I should know, he is my second favorite character next to Roy (who is 1st) and Snake (who is 3rd). Doesn't really matter to me though. I play and like Melee much much more. But for cheapest and overpowered in the next Smash Bros., I'd say any Castlevania character that has a chance to get in.

But... but... Roy isn't in Brawl! Ohmygod help me.

Anyway, my vote goes to Captain Falcon. Very fast and very powerful. He's often banned amongst my friends who own the game.

Guess i'm just an odd person, but I feel like I'm cheating when I use Samus, and she's not even listed. Of the choices though Ike wins the OP contest

 

[Snotnarok]

Fox, Falco and Wolf, who else drops a tank on the ENTIRE battlefield long enough to kill you twice if you work it out right.

Hahahahahahaha wow.

I guess you and your friends aren't incredibly serious at SSBB, but Captain Falcon is (unfortunately) pretty bad. Mainly because A: his moves are slow and B: He lacks range / a projectile attack.

 

[Sark]

Where is Kirby on this list? He is the pink marshmellow of death.

No, we play SSBB for fun, but I can understand your point.
To each their own, but he's still deadly amongst my friends and I.

 

[Neosage]

Well the tier lists say it's Meta knight. But I think they are all pretty balanced.

 

[Cxizent]

Overpowered is one of my most hated words. None of the characters are over powered. If you think so, you probably just suck at the game. If you say sonic, he's fast but his moves are terrible and his final smash is easy to dodge, he has no kill moves also.

Everything is balanced! Each one of twenty million characters with their own separate moves and specials is exactly and precisely balanced to within a hair's breadth of each-other, and anyone who says that any of the characters is marginally better than another one is just a big sook who is bad at the game and can't beat me when I play Ike because I pwn so much. Why would they put it in the game if it weren't balanced?

 

[Azazcyh]

I wouldn't use the word overpowered, but the one that can get the easiest kill is Ike.
I just use him when my friend decided he's going to spam every match.

 

[Cartman2nd]

I don't want to be a bastard or anything, but you know... go to a SSBB forum.

I enjoyed this sarcasm greatly. Well played sir.

I think Metaknight is. Then again I don't play Brawl a lot, it's not great. The item inbalance is worse - the Final Smash is just silly as is the Dragoon and Spicy Curry.

 

[rosac]

Metaknight. If only because he can fly and all his b moves can be used as recovery.

rosac

 

[suhlEap]

ike, but it's not a bad thing. it's compensated by the fact that he is very slow. and he's my favourite character so yeah.

 

[Scythas]

Nobody mentioned Pit?

Seriously, like every one of his moves reflects shit. And the flying, so annoying!.

I hate the dragoon, it kills in one hit and is a pain to collect. Like when i get 2 pieces and a comp gets 1. It takes me to deliver a beating to get that one piece whereas that comp hits me once and i lose both. I don't even know how that works. The Fact that the game has basically just become a one hit kill fest is just a bore. Almost anything can KO anyone instantly (i exaggerate, but you get the point) This, and the fact that the games pace has been slowed down immensely is why i feel it is not as good as Melee, despite the great amount of features.

OT-Ike or metaknight, Ike is raw power whereas MK is speed (or as i call it, harassing my opponents) I hate how link was so badly toned down for this game, i kicked ass with him.

I hate the dragoon more than anything, bar the Subspace Emissary which was 8 and a half hours of solid boredom. And yeah, I had that same problem too - they tap me and I lose the piece yet I smash his fucking head in and it only drops after I KO him. And cause I play against the hardest AI they almost never miss with the Dragoon...in the end I just get pissed off and turn the items off.

And yeah, Link kicked arse in Melee, which was a much better game. It was just more fun than Brawl...although four-player brawls are way too random for my liking - I prefer one on one.
