yes
Melee is 7000
SF is about 6700
Smash 4 is 4600
Melee and Smash 4 is also doubles which isn't the highlight of competitive Smash. I hate watching doubles Smash but love 1 on 1.
Not even a 1000 yet lol
Damn.

There's probably more overlap among those four games than there is overlap between the two Smash games which share 102 entrants.
yes for FGC events, not so much for Smash-centric events (which is why SmashCon is mildly interesting)
Typically no. The $500 bounty for knocking Zero out plus a recent movement by the 4 community to develop a community infrastructure are mostly to owe for that. This is 4's biggest tournament until Evo happens so for them it's a proving grounds.

At FGC events (NCR, Texas Showdown, KSB, Spring Fighter, etc.) Smash 4 usually gets more. At Smash events Melee usually gets more.
Also Ryo & Sol. OMG.
i want to see him

No. Melee usually beats it out on all fronts, from entrants, to stream numbers. I believe this is the first time for a national.
This is good for Smash4. But it's not too surprising because the main event of CEO 2015 is clearly Smash4 with the whole "undisputed, undefeated best" ZeRo in attendance with people that can legitimately beat him for the first time since Apex. A bounty has even been put on his head, whoever eliminates him gets a bonus. There's a lot of hype for it.
Although Melee singles could end up reaching the CEO cap too as late registrations are being allowed and the Melee community is notorious for late entrants. EVO 15 is where the hype for Melee will really show, with the whole "Mango 3VO" coming into play.

Lol don't. He does this every thread.
Most people are still at work right now.
No updates
I think it became stagnant before that since it is never going to get updated.

Capcom dropped support for UMVC3 soon after its release. No patches, no support to the community.
The channel you are on is very important. VGbootcamp 1/2 and TeamSpooky are the most popular Smash and FGC streams respectively. Whatever channel Marvel is on just won't be able to compete with that.
When Marvel has top 8 on Sunday, it will get the numbers it usually gets.

Marvel is a game that thrived on finding new things, such as team compositions, setups, and combos. More than other fighting games I would say. Once the novelty isn't there, it's not a game that captures people.

Zero balance updates + game is figured out + some stuff is really strong compared to other options.
I think it is more that people like playing their own creations, and the current state of balance is not very flexible in that regard. I still enjoy playing my teams.
