I laugh at how terrible the BB community is.
A patch? lolbullshit. It's the same shit SSBB gets regarding Metaknight.
Every game has its good, and bad characters. That's just how it is. I'm not sure how the online community is for other fighters, but the competitive fighters I have met in person acknowledge, and accept that certain characters are better than others.
BB is no different than any other fighter, or any other GAME for that matter that certain characters/etc are better than others. The difference between BB, and games, such as Melee, Brawl, or MvC2 as examples, are that despite BB having low/mid tier characters, they aren't obsoleted by the higher tier players.
In Melee, Brawl, and MvC2, at a high level of play, a lower tier character will NEVER win a tournament. The player may be able to out-play a lesser player, or beat a player who may even be more skillful, but less knowledgeable about certain match ups, or gimmicks, and pull off a surprise win or two.
BB, GG, SF, etc doesn't have this problem. Characters have their good, and bad match ups, but it's much more manageable. (I will admit that Tager vs Arakune is super dumb.), but it's nowhere on the level as a top tier team, vs even a mid tier team in MVC2, or even Sheik vs Pikachu in Melee, where it's neigh unwinnable, unless the player using the lower tier character/team/etc is much more skilled.
At a high level of play (SBO, the later brackets of events like EVO, etc) it all comes down to individual player skill. In that aspect, most 2d fighters, BB included are BALANCED. Bad, and good match ups at a high level of play either become "SOFT" counters, or disappear outright.
In this regard, the BB community seems to be just as dumb as the SSBB community.
"OMFG PATCH THIS."
"OMFG BAN METAKNIGHT."
Using that logic, you may as well remove every character, except one, or give every character the same moveset.
If you're looking for the utmost balance, that's the only way you're going to achieve it. Otherwise, you need to man up and accept that characters have their inherent strengths, and weaknesses.
BB is not a broken game, nor does it have characters that are broken by nature. There isn't a damn thing that should be patched. All the community should do is continue to improve, whilst eagerly awaiting a sequel.
Also; Don't attempt to discredit me using my post count, or experience level. Logic is logic.
