Super Mario Bros. Crossover

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - Deterministic encounter design

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (7 vs 8) - Tight jumps on narrow paths punish slop

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - Fixed levels

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - Secret Lost World entrances hidden until found

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - Deterministic levels

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (7 vs 6) - Precise jumping and combo movement

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - Open world is static once explored

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - Levels never change between runs

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: optimization (5 vs 6) - S-ranks come from memorising optimal routes and shortcuts

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (7 vs 6) - Speed sections punish sloppy control

Both lean on reads about the same (0 vs 0). Biggest difference: execution (7 vs 6) - Notoriously demanding missions and gunplay

Both lean on execution about the same (7 vs 7). Biggest difference: variance (0 vs 1) - deterministic level design
