I used to main Snake, though I haven't played as him recently, so I'll leave this one to you guys. What's your opinion on Snake in Brawl? Was this a good move by Sakurai and Kojima? Would you have preferred Snake to use firearms instead of explosives? If you main the soldier, what do you like about him? What do you not like? Should there have been more Metal Gear representation? Discuss.

And in the end, I actually managed to get on the computer. Well, thanks for the very early poll. XD

Well, let's go. It sure was a great move; personally, I was barely aware of the existance of MGS before, but Snake's Brawl appearance brings up a good display of how the series should be like. Except it lacked firearms, which as I read, weren't in because they thought this sort of weapon would be too dirty for a [T] game. I used to main Snake and I use him every so often, and I'll tell you, what I most like about him is that he has a moveset that is ready for all sorts of situation. You don't even get fully helpless after using the Cypher so I can even use it as a defensive measure, too.

[Small Sammer Guy]

IMO Snake is one of the best character in the game (Last time I checked, there are DOZENS of Snake pros)
He has many potentials including STRONG projectiles, immense power, and the ability to plant two types of mines. He is really strong both long and close range.

[Super Jetfire]

Snake is a pretty good character. Strong smashes and interseting projectile smashes and spiecal attack. The NIKITA (poor memory) is one of my personal favorite moves to finish off my opponets.
The down-side is the projectile. One well-place Gardvoir, Franklin badge, reflector shield, or Psi-magnet, and those moves become almost useless, tnen again, if you play by tourney rules, the Starfox character will be the only problem.
Overall, a great addition to smash.

[Twytch]

Snake in Brawl is what challenged me getting a PS3 instead of a Wii early on. I love playing as him, not just because he's from my favorite series, but because he's one of the characters I'm actually good at. His explosives are awesome, and I'd rather he had a grenade strapped to every part of his body and pulled the pin for an attack instead of being like Fox and having a blaster/gun for ranged. Using his C4 as a recovery move in order to use the Cypher again after letting go is one of my favorite tactics as the Inferior clone of the Les Enfants Terribles.

Overall, I'm glad he's in. At least now I can kick Mario's ass as him.

[Tyler]

Oh lawdy, he's slow. And he relies on tools and B moves, which I'm not good with... I'm good AGAINST Snakes, though.

[ZONED OUT]

He is ok. Although most of his moves are great for plain out attacking, he is a great tactical character.

[Lord Bob]

I'm okay with him, it's just that I don't like his attacks. Too indirect for me, really.

[Goron Mask]

He's a pretty decent character IMO. If his moves weren't so damn indirect and slow I might've actually mained him or secondaried him.
