play defensive?

[Frost_Bite]

i know Brawl is extremely defensive game, but is there any way for an offensive player to win?
in my opinion, i don think ppl who do not even think to approach anyone chould win, i mean in Melee, both offensive and defensive players could fight equally, but in Brawl, offensive players just die...
is there any extreme offensive player who can tell me how to win, or a good way to play?(not playing like... Ken-too hard for me)

(i use marth, and ike)

 

[znintendotaku]

dude you proved yourself wrong before i could...you sayd that people who dont approach opponents (defensive) cant win, but then you said offensive players will die...so does that mean both offensive players AND defensive players are doomed? And how is brawl "extremely defensive"?
i want you to answer these and no one else...

please lurk more before you ask simple questions, and this should go in the tactical discussion anyway...

When I use charzard, I often approach with Flamethrower (neutral B).

It really depends on the character. Who do you main?

Hey go easy on the fellow. He (or she) was just asking a question that should be taken seriously, and not be considered dumb.

I usually play Offensively and...I agree that the game is mainly defensive. But really depends on who you're playing.

I play Sonic and apparently, I'm an aggressive player ?_?

Aggressive players have to try to maintain the momentum and control of movement.

In a sense, I tend to approach defensively, that is, I look like I'm going to attack, but try to bait out a reaction, and if the opening is large enough, I'll get a hit in, start my momentum, and then play openly aggressive from that point on, until I lose momentum. Grabs are a nice way to start it up, since you can start a grab from a defensive position (shield), and you have 'full' control of your opponent from the grab, then chase/disrupt with your other attacks.

With Marth/Ike, you can do this by creating an attack aura that outranges your opponent (usually F-airs) and punishing moves that a defensive player might try to use against it.

Oh yes, and if you're gonna be playing aggressively, know how to read your opponent's reactions to certain moves (like if you jab x amount of times with Ike, will they roll behind you? Spotdodge? Roll away?) and be prepared to punish those moves.

Some characters are just better when played defensively.

Like R.O.B, Lucario, or worst of all:

META KNIGHT.

 

[Nokon]

i main diddy, he can go either. But I find offense out of no where is amazing, it usually throws the opponent off.

How is brawl a defensive game? Just because shielding is easier?

 

[Sosuke]

Doesn't matter.
Just don't get hit.

Yes. I strongly agree with you. There is no stupid and dumb question when we are in the learning stage.

[stratele]

I play toon link, and hes a defensive character.

I pick my attacks, use projectiles them move in then out. Quickly

 

[1337marth]

I have to say I am more of a aggressive, kind of offensive instead of defense.
