Iirc, Balancers, as the name implies, "balance" characters and make them not so overpowered, and not so underpowered.

At least, that;s what I believe is a Balancer anyways.

So they don't have to sprite and all that stuff?

For new sprites, they probably have to balance them too.
However, I think they have special people that make sprites.

In a SSF2 battle, Balancers make sure characters aren't overpowered or underpowered.
I don't know how the Balancers do that.

No, you were talking about sprites, not characters.

Sometimes I confuse sprites with characters, even though they seem like the same thing.

Um. I've heard of double posting, but quadruple posting? That's a new one for me. :roll:
But anyways, I wanted to know that because I'm sort of interested in becoming a balancer. The only problem is that I can't sprite to save my life! :x
EDIT: you didn't quadruple post. I had someone foed on here. that's why. :P

If they don't sprite, then maybe I should try to join them. 8-)

I know what I'm talking about.
Balancers have the job of balancing characters, making them equal in power.
Not overpowered, not underpowered.
The characters in SSF2 are ripped from a game or made as sprites.
Sprites and characters are the same thing.

So food is a character too?

No.
Food is an item.
Why would that need to be balanced?

It was a joke. (You said characters are sprites are the same thing.) Food is a sprite, too. :lol: But anyway, so, balancers have to sprite things, don't they? And what about coding? Do they do that, too?
