Pillars - Brawl minigame

Here's a minigame I think the community would get a kick out of. I apologize if it's in the wrong forum.



What is Pillars?
Pillars is a minigame that focuses on Brawl's aerial gameplay. Players start off with 5 lives, and all it takes is just one hit to send your opponent into the blast zone. Stages have been built specifically to enhance aerial gameplay. There are no walls, floors or ceilings. Just pillars, platforms and you.

I don't see how this helps too much with your aerial game if you instantly kill a person by kicking the air infront of them.... can it be played without the 300%? Also, why must the damage meter be removed? I wouldn't know my Aura Boost with it gone....

If so, then this is quite an interesting concept.... I might try to emulate these stages and practice my aerial combos on this set up.

This is definitely interesting, but yeah, it doesn't really focus on aerial moves. It might more if there wasn't the 300% thing because then you actually have to use aerials to do damage.

Edit: I think the 2nd link stage is the best for this.

Hmmm, there's a custom stage minigame thread which I think this would be great to be posted in

Not just aerial moves, aerial gameplay. That includes airdodging and footstooling. If matches weren't set to 300% damage, then players could depend on smash balls to make KO's. On the the other hand, if smash balls were set to low without 300% damage, matches can last a very long time, especially 1v1 matches.
