Axis by axis
Execution5 vs 6
Super Smash Bros. Brawl leans harder on execution: Slower engine lowers the ceiling but spacing still needs hands.
Reads5 vs 7
Super Smash Bros. Brawl leans harder on reads: Defensive bait-and-punish yomi dominates its floaty neutral.
Variance4 vs 3
Kirby Battle Royale leans harder on variance: Item drops and mode objectives add randomness
Optimization4 vs 4
