Also, there doesn't seem to be a method to reliably throw a super ball of your own. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't, even though you are doing the same thing with your joystick and buttons.

I'm going to argue against this one. There is definitely a consistent way to do the super-throw. You just have to get the timing right, and it takes practice. (Wouldn't be fair if even a noob could throw one every time).

The best I have ever done is maybe an average of 75% of the time, and I could marathon that game in the arcade. Sometimes I could throw like 6 in a row and then nothing, couldn't throw another one to save my life. Whatever the exact timing is I've never been able to pinpoint it.

Are you saying that you can throw the super ball every time?

I haven't been able to...the fact does still remain that super dodge ball is very frustrating

I'd have to fire it up and play a few rounds before accurately answering that. Most likely, no, not every time. But it IS skill based. You have to initiate it at a very precise moment in the jump and the window to do it is very short. That's why people miss alot. Kind of like throwing basketballs at a hoop. You don't get it in every time, do you?

Or I play like a strategy game,warcraft II comes to mind, and the AI makes knights and dragons and battleships even before I can get my freakin first grunt made.

See, I get that. I have no need to have the snot beaten out of me, and I will subsequently make no claim as to being the 3733t3 WC2 player. But to give casual players like me auto-cast in one round, and then take it away with Faerie Dragon in the next...  :angry:  :angry:  :angry:
