Super Smash Bros. Brawl leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Rising Storm 2: Vietnam
Predicting human pushes, flanks, and tunnel placements.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Random tripping injects genuine uncontrollable RNG into movement.
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
