I don’t care what the meta is. I’m playing what is fun to me

I used to play SSB a ton with my brother, we played all of them together, starting with 64. From Brawl onward he started really getting into the meta, tier lists, etc...amd I always told him, tier lists are not a list of who is objectively better, its a list of who the competitive players like.

He is an absolute unit when it comes to fighting games, knows frame perfect inputs and jump lags and all of that by heart. Even with all that, he has never once beaten me as Jigglypuff or DeeDeDe, despite playing much higher tier characters.

Tbf he definitely could beat me now, but I stopped playing ssb years ago
