Smash Club is a club dedicated to improving the skills of those that are interested in playing Super Smash Bros games, specifically Melee, Project M, and Smash 4.
Players of any skill level are accepted - from those who don't know what a "Smash Bros" is, to those who can multishine perfectly until their hands fall apart.
Those who are inexperienced can choose to play against others who are also inexperienced, or simply spectate.
Games in the Super Smash Bros series are unlike those of traditional fighting games. While both require technical skill and game sense (or proper evaluation of the game), Smash games generally have a larger focus on movement and free-form combos, while traditional fighters are extremely dependent on reaction and preset combos.
Every attack and technique done in the Super Smash Bros series generally requires a single button press and a directional input, with more advanced techniques coming from simple techniques being combined (occasionally with specific timings). In traditional fighters, many different sets of button inputs may have to be memorized. As a result of this, games in the Super Smash Bros series have a low skill floor, allowing new players to enjoy the game, while it has a high skill ceiling as well, giving even the most experienced players a long way to perfection.
Simply show up! If you have your own controller you are free to use it. In the meantime, you can check out some other resources we have, such as the intro to Smash page.
