Whether you are a casual or competitive player, Super Smash bros has something in store for both casual and hardcore players alike. The question is simple, how do you like to play Smash Bros? Do you like to play with items on or off? With or without stage hazards? Do you like to play on the chaotic form of stages or do you prefer the Omega (Final Destination)/ Battlefield version? Is your playstyle more aggressive or laid back? Post below.

Personally, I like to play both casually and competitively depending on the people I play against. When I am alone, I like to play against computers and online (I eventually plan to buy the online service for Switch) to develop my skills and techniques. When I am playing against my brother or casual friends, we usually end up playing on normal or semi-chaotic stages with items and final smashes on. If I am playing against more competitive friends or players, we usually only play on Final Destination or the Omega/Battlefield version of stages with items off, using our main characters. I like playing both casually and competitively because I'm able to derive some form of enjoyment or satisfaction either way I play.

I'm a very competitive person, so I prefer to play without any BS. In other words, no items, and stages on either omega or battlefield versions.

That being said, that is just a preference. I have no problem playing regular stages with stage hazards and/or with items if the people I'm playing with want to.

It really depends. With the same friends I can have fun playing with items beating up CPUs while also having fun with 1v1s without items.

Right now we're playing 1v1s a lot as he just got Smash Ultimate and I've only played it with him so far. Still need to get my own copy. So we're both practicing and finding our mains.

So my thing is that I love Smash Brothers. Been playing it forever and ever. I even have it for the Nintendo 64 still! My biggest issue is that I'm god awful at it. Like I can beat a bot on level 7 difficulty but no higher kind of bad.

So that leads me to only play it for the fun and not competitive aspect. I love to play with friends more than anything else but in a party kind of way never to see who's better than who. It gets heated sometimes when I win because everyone kind of knows me as the bad player and my friends come up with excuses on why they lost whether it be their controller, or the move didnt input, or I was cheesing it, whatever. But I always have fun in the end.

For game type I play it with the Omega or Battlefield mode in Smash Ultimate. I prefer with no items just because then it's more a 1 on 1 type deal without the assist from RNG and who's quicker to grab the dropped item.



Maybe I should work on getting better so I can surprise my friends one of these days.

I don't really care for Smash too much in the first place. I love the concept but I really can only stand like, an hour or two of it at most before I'm tired of it for 2-3 days. Probably just me. With that being said it doesn't really "depend" for me who I'm playing against, I'm not competitive at all with the game. I don't like items or stage hazards but I also feel no "competitive streak" when I'm playing/losing against someone. It's all in fun. My irl friends say I'm a bit better than I should be for someone who hardly plays, so I imagine I could actually get some valuable practice in and become better if I ever decide to, but for now I'll probably never do that.

I love the game but not as much as others. As for casual vs competitive, I haven't been competitive in years, for the last couple of games I've only played by myself. For me, I always play with items and hazards on because I think that they make the game a lot more fun and challenging.

In the newest game, I focus more on spirits than anything else though.

No items, no hazards, extremely aggressive. I need to work on my aerials though. I find it difficult to hit kill moves. I can get you to 200% easy though.

I play 1-on-1 fights in Brawl. I use just about every character in the game excluding; Olimar, Ice Climbers, all the Pokémon excluding Lucario, Peach, Samus (I use Zero Suit Samus, however.), and Link. No combos, none of that fancy s***. I either play on custom stages, Battlefield, or Final Destination.

Super Smash Bros. is a trilogy, not a series. The only good Smash games are Smash 64, Melee, and Brawl; all the later games - Project M included - suck ass.

Items gotta be on for complete madness! For just playing with friends

If you wanna be competitive in a serious match no items.

Back in the brawl days I played a ton of casual smash with friends with items as well as timer, but ever since Smash 4 came out I got more into competitive and learning characters so 99% of the time anymore for me it's not items 4 stock.

It really depends for me. When I play online, I rather play in the Battle Arena with others instead of random battles and tournaments, although the whole lack of friends I have on Switch, I have really no choice but to go on tournaments and random battles, but some fighters are competitors that takes pride in their battles, but others just flat out cheats, or doesn't even care, but that's the risk I take with a grain of salt.

I've never played it before although it seems fun it's just not really my kind of game I don't think although I can see why it is so well liked by many different people.

so you like to alternate play styles, huh? nice! i do that sometimes, but except that i consider myself to be much closer to the casual side than the competitive side. despite that, i usually play against cpus with no items (only smash ball is enabled though), omega stages. i feel like its more epic that way hehe!
i tried playing online a few times, and the experience was okay. the internet tends to a lag a lot so the matches don't go really smoothly. it doesn't matter to me much however

i love it and i have watch people's videos on youtube and i do like battle tournament too and the story has few problems. i haven't got cloud yet.

I play only casually. I like having all the items on. I play with random characters and on random stages. I like to mix it up, and avoid falling into habits where I only play one specific character.

I also play the game default (IE items on, hazards on, etc) because that is typically how the game is meant to be played, according to the directors of the game. They just gave the option to play in other ways to appease a broader audience.

does anyone had found ff7 cloud yet? i haven't gotten him yet?

I don't own any Smash Bros games like I used to. I used to own the original Nintendo 64 game on my Wii, but when I switched my data over to my Wii U, not all of my games transferred sadly.

Thankfully, I get to play Smash Bros. games with friends once in a while. Two of my friends own a Nintendo Switch. When I play with them, I LOVE having the items on! I have so much fun with those. I usually don't like playing with stage hazards, but it depends on the map. I have no preference for the types of stages I play.

I have a pretty laid back playing style. I still need to get good at Smash Bros Ultimate XD I don't show mercy, but I also don't button much THAT much.
