    How id balance Mewtwo in Ultimate: Better grab and dash grab range (his grabs are extremely short and he goes for alot of grabs) Give upsmash a better scoop ( would make it more consistent to combo with and would be better out of shield) Make his tail hurtbox smaller ( would prevent him from getting cheesed by moves that shouldn't hit and would increase his disjointed range) People saying to buff his weight need to realize Mewtwo is supposed to be a glass canon. Make his strengths stronger to make up for his weight

    I mained Sm4sh and Ultimate M2, I recognize what players find unfun so I propose a middle ground of giving the character flexibility like returning side b's (Confusion) mobility and/or neutral air's bigger hitboxes from Sm4sh to help alleviate the sub par disadvantage by giving more landing mix ups As for the tail hurtbox, it comes down to having to change animations to reduce the janky interactions that get clipped, if possible move it into the Z axis but keep the hurtbox as to not create an absurdly braindead disjointed sword tail when using the moves that utilize it

    Kinda disappointed on how Mewtwo is included in this series, given that melee is a 2001 game, there's not much to really to take after, resulting in his moveset being pretty dull, especially after playing pokken. Maybe if melee had a couple more months he could also make for a sick ass boss character akin to Sf3 Third Strike's Gill, and the unlocking method is to defeat him with every other character prior rather than that disaster of a method we got. 😂

    Regarding Mewtwo's Melee unlock method you can actually reduce it to single digit hours if you have 4 human players in a match as more human players=less hours required. That aside Mewtwo has always been a favorite of mine. While I'm not particularly the biggest fan of glass cannons I think Mewtwo strikes that nice balance of being fun but also not too frustrating to play. That said I do think making him a lightweight is a mistake, and I think making him be a middleweight would be a nice and fair balance between durable and powerful but not overwhelming and immortal. Hopefully more people will be able to do well with him in Ultimate tourneys in the future but we'll see how it goes.

    Well, in official Pokemon tournaments Mewtwo is considered trash, because you're only allowed to bring 1 or 2 of the strong legendaries, and Mewtwo definitely can't keep up with those because they usually have better stats and abilities. But it's not the worst of them because this list includes several Pokemon that are made bad intentionally.

    Glass cannons work in Pokémon the game but not very well in smash bros despite all his flaws I think he has potential in melee I just really enjoy playing him in that game over any other game I have tried in every game to make that character work & really he is a tough character to use any game so pick your poison, I think melee having more basic fighter movesets gives him more of a favor in melee I just feel like the way 4 & ult are played the games evolved too much to where there r pretty much rush down characters that hit like heavies and with how fast the combo games r in both those games he just doesn’t work being a big slow floaty lightweight is just brutal he does hit like a dump truck and has a nasty nasty jab in ult I’d argue better the villagers and Jrs jabs from just how fast it racks up damage I just wish in ult they gave him a project M buff and let him act outta teleport that woulda been what kept me playing the characters XD

    I think ult M2 sucks ass. Melee M2 is actually decent, just hard af to use. He's the heaviest variant and the fastest movement wise if you properly use his djc and teleports. Sm4sh M2 was topps. Didn't like how he felt, but he was objectively better than in melee, so I played him. Side B was so cracked. Reflected shit, combo'd used for movement and recovery, it did everything! What ult did to M2 was a fucking disaster. They took away everything that gave him some sort of edge and gave him a buff where he didn't need it. No djc aerials or NiL teleports like in melee, no cracked side B like in sm4sh, no, they gave his ass "better down B" like wtf lol down B is too situational to benefit off of... Either give M2 back his cracked side B, djc aerials, or NiL teleports, at LEAST one of the three..

    @@armandomorfin3845 I'm not wrong though. Melee has tons of movement options, so you can make underdog characters work because of how much movement there is in melee. From sm4sh and further, a character needs to have the full package or at least damn near it because the modern smash titles don't allow interactive movement, so players can't really push a character as much. Look at Yoshi in melee, ppl thought at first that character sucked lol you can't replicate that in modern smash. Platforms are hazards, can't shield drop, no wavelanding, nothing. They gotta make ult M2 more like sm4sh M2 especially with all the crazy DLC fighters.

Players in melee can pick up a slow character and boost their speed significantly. In modern smash titles you can't really do a whole lot about a slow character.
