Exactly what I hoped for
After many hours of playing the monthly playtests, and demo leading up to launch i can confidently say this is one of the most fun platform fighters i have ever played. I have full confidence in this dev team and i hope this game succeeds. I highly recommend this game.

It's a fun platform fighter, however it lacks a proper tutorial as of right now
It's a fun platform fighter, however it lacks a proper tutorial as of right now. When I refer to "proper tutorial" i'm referring to an interactive space that tells you how to play the game, not video guides, so if you're not an experienced rivals 1 or melee player, it's generally going to be a hard time for you.

Great ideas, rough execution
If this game ever becomes fun to me, I'll happily change my review to a positive one, but as it stands this is the most disappointment I've ever felt in a game, especially a sequel in a franchise that I've loved and enjoyed for thousands of hours. I really, really wanted to enjoy this game for thousands more, but there are far too many ever-prevalent reasons in the current state of the game as to why I can't after trying over and over to over the past 7 months. A lot of my feeling is "would you like to play a balanced game over a fun game?" and the feeling in my heart, to the dwindling playerbase, would be a resounding "absolutely not." But on top of that, the game is nowhere near a balanced state either, and the playerbase has been feeling that as patches go on. Every other balance update buffs top tier characters, and doles out endlag and makes other characters slower as a way to balance around the bloated and suffocating system mechanics. It just isn't fun. I'm putting the big one up front before the pros and the [rest of the] cons, because this game is a blast when both players are new, but once you find the mid-level redpill, you can't go back.
