      Esam is the smash ultimate version of what mewtwoking was in smash melee, he's a super computer of info cuz he spends more time labbing then anyone and he speaks very seriously about his findings, wadi on the other hand is just a guy that loves to play smash and happens to be good at it.

      I'm pretty sure you can't actually delete things like shield from your controller scheme because the game won't let you save it. However, you are able to delete grab because it is just a macro for shield and attack which is why the game doesn't see it as necessary to include in a button layout.
      Also as a rule, they shouldn't be able to change the d-pad off of taunting. I only say this because you can just set any combination of shield, attack, smash attack, special, and jump to each of the 4 directions on the d-pad and have every other button be taunt except for 1 button which would be whichever one of the 5 actions that you didn't put on the d-pad. This can be especially problematic because you can make it impossible to grab if you set shield and attack to opposite sides of the d-pad.

      Kazuya is just hard. Even Riddles, the best Kazuya in the world, can't do the combos consistently. It's like you said, Steve might not have guaranteed 0-to-deaths, but he does have guaranteed >60% combos off of safe pokes and they're way easier to do than Kazuya combos, so what's the point in playing Kazuya?

    Agree with WaDi. Steve is annoying as hell, but not banworthy. I believe Kazuya is a problem, because the entire point of the Kazuya matchup is:
    1. Dont get hit.
    2. Refer to rule #1
    You get hit by Kazuya, you lose a stock, because he 0 to Deaths you off most, if not all touches. I basically play keep away and dont interact with Kazuya the whole time, because being close to him is bad, no matter your character choice.
    Also, I will continue to say this about Ultimate: We are so lucky that there arent more Min-Min Mains. I would ban Min-Min over Steve.

      I can agree somewhat, at least you can play around Kazuya by staying away from him all match.

    Like a lot of the characters that are Top Tier in Ultimate were not the best in Smash 4.
    Roy and Wario were both low tier and Pac-Man and Palutena were like Bottom 15.
    If Wolf was in Smash 4, I feel like they would’ve put him like one tier above Falco.

    People don't talk about the nerfs Mythra got in the last couple of balance patches enough when they mention the characters viability. Before 12.0 Mythra was able to get much earlier kills on heavier characters with Lightning Buster and they made the character's recovery significantly worse by reducing the amount of s air dodge had. Reducing Mythra fsmash knockback and making Pyra's side b have more recovery frames so the character gets the gimmicky side b footstool stuff less were also significant hits. Compared to release Mythra has to rely on Pyra to kill much more and the character gets gimped way easier. It's kind of the same thing that happened to Lucina with the fsmash and fair nerfs. You didn't imagine that these characters were broken they just have to win neutral a couple of extra times now to take stocks and over the course of a set that's a huge deal.
