i'm that person who just likes super smash bros and nothing else because i'm shit at normal fighting games forever

i prefer ssb because it cuts right to the chase by making all the moves intuitively reflexive instead of building a sacred, ritualistic institution on them

while the top ssb players know the "combos" and attacks which technically deal the most dps and attempt to shut out the other player by rote execution (and practice these things for hours), i like that i am able to compete with them on a fairly level playing field by employing pressure, placement, and prediction while freely discarding the playbook in favor of reading opponents and taking advantage of their habits by tripping them up in the middle of their cycles and employing the full range of my abilities to match the context, instead of trying to sequester the situation to a few, tired "best" movesets i read off of a grocery list of things i need to get to bake a win cake

if i can shape my perception and focus it at the precise moments i need it, my path will take me to where i need to go, and my actions flow as freely as my thoughts
