Axis by axis

Execution4 vs 6

Super Smash Bros. Brawl leans harder on execution: Slower engine lowers the ceiling but spacing still needs hands.

Reads6 vs 7

Super Smash Bros. Brawl leans harder on reads: Defensive bait-and-punish yomi dominates its floaty neutral.

Variance3 vs 3

Even - both lean on variance about the same.

Optimization3 vs 4

Super Smash Bros. Brawl leans harder on optimization: Matchup knowledge and ledge play reward study within a campy meta.

Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
