Also mentioned.
This thread recently got a lot of attention and I thought I'd talk a little more about Brawl Minus, its mechanics, and all of the little gimmicks/'advanced tech' there is in this game.
DISCLAIMER: I'm not a member of the development team, nor a really competitive B- player. I'm simply a fan of this mod and would like to share some of my experience from the many hours that I've played.
Overview and Current Version
If you haven't played it yet, Brawl Minus' aim is to 'balance' Brawl by making all characters extremely overpowered. This includes:
- Buffing standard Brawl movesets to increase their killpower,
- More disjointed hitboxes to compliment said increased killpower, and/or
- Completely changing moves in a character, effectively re-writing the character's playstyle.Get it done right with Avery Design and Print and a variety of other templates and software at Avery.com.

Brawl Minus Wiki
Currently, Brawl Minus is on version 4.0b, a public beta of Version 4.0 before its final stable release.
Special Brawl Minus Mechanics
As mentioned in this video by the devs, the hitstun mechanic in Brawl minus has been re-tweaked to levels higher than Smash 64, making this mod having the highest hitstun in the smash franchise. Also mentioned in the video is that you cannot air-dodge out of hitstun. This mechanic combination effectively allows you to create long, wacky combos, bringing this game's speed close to Melee levels if played properly.
Advanced Tech/Other Brawl Minus Gimmicks
A lot of movesets were changed in Brawl Minus, some of which were showcased in the recent dev video. I'll outline a few below:
Character | Major Changes |
---|---|
Captain Falcon | Knee has been buffed to Melee levels. Falcon Punch, when properly landed, will deal multiple consecutive hits landing over 50% damage in total. Up special has an additional hitbox at the apex of the jump, and will deal ~27% damage. |
Lucario | Up taunts will increase percent, effectively increasing his aura mechanic. In addition, tapping up taunt repeatedly will cause Lucario to raise his damage to 300%. Neutral special (aura ball) will also raise percent if held to charge. |
R.O.B. | Dair now angles about 30-40 degrees to the right or left, depending on the direction he is facing. Doing a shorthop onstage, followed by a dair will allow R.O.B. to slide across the stage, similar to a wavedash. |
Fox | Melee airdodge mechanics have been implimented, allowing Fox to wavedash Melee-style. aerials auto-cancel on landing. Fox can also perform any aerial immediately out of his illusion (side-B), or any other special other than another side-B, not to mention any smash attack if the illusion is inputted onstage. |
Shiek | Airdodges will make her disappear Mewtwo-style. She also has a triple jump. |
Ganon | Warlock punch is a one-hit kill that will deal 666% damage. Enough said. |
Of course, these aren't all the changes found in this mod. Many other changes have been implemented, where a greater list can be found in the wiki below.
It takes place before the events of FF7, giving you the background story of the different characters. It has a new style of gameplay, no longer turn-based but still uses turn meters so it has a bit of both styles. A very good, mission-based RPG with a new style of slot machine style meter that grants bonuses and summons during battle.
You now have free motion during combat, allowing for different strategies.
Conclusion/TL;DR
Have a go at this mod. I'd love to see more people pick this mod up, and hopefully establish a larger fanbase around it, similar to Project M. If you have any questions, I've played over 100 hours of this mod so I can assist in any gameplay-related/technical questions you may have (Except Dolphin, I'm still having trouble making this mod work on the emulator..)
