Has the complete opposite strengths and weaknesses as Smash 4/Ult. On one hand, it feels fantastic to play a platform fighter with controls and hitboxes that actually 'feel' good. But on the other hand, you're missing out on the sheer polish, content and budget that smash has. There's clearly a lot of money and passion put into the core meat, but the menus and UX that surround it are totally barren, as is the single-player content. If post-launch updates and DLC are able to improve this, I'd have no shame in saying this is a way better fighter than Smash. I never want to go back to Smash's fucking awful movement and gameplay philosophies.
