Got a chance to play Ken in a Smash Ultimate Demo. Some changes that I haven't seen mentioned before: No Red Fireball. Doing HCF B didn't seem to do anything. I could have done a mis input since I'm not used to pro controller but I'm fairly certain Ken doesn't have Shakunetsu since he's never...

What I'm taking from this: -Dash attack is ASS. -Intagibility on weak-ftilt is around thigh area. -uptilt the god. Makes hitting Sheiks/Marios flipping all over the place easier to hit with Ryu's slow legs. -Nair hitbox is on the knee, not the hand. -Bair the second god. -Dair spike hitbox is...

How viable is this DI trap? When hit by FAlvl2/3, most people are DI-ing outwards to live. I don't have another person to test it with me right now, but wouldn't it be possible to FADC and run past, do a B-reversed TSRK and trick the opponent into doing the worst possible DI? I'd imagine the...

Summer time baby, PARTY!

Well now I feel like a massive jerk. Honestly, to me it's incredibly pretentious to name something after youself. If I had known that bit, I wouldn't have been so mean. So, sorry if I made you upset.

Naming a combo after yourself? Seriously? Unless you start dominating years of competitive smash with this combo, there's no reason for you to have that kind of prestige. As for the actual combo, it's only inescapable at certain percents (without even considering DI) and in almost all cases...

Could we get some video of this ridiculous Pac-man? I'm already starting to become wary of customs that are called silly...

If we're talking about counter strats to Heavy Skull Bash then let us follow the words of Isai: "Don't get hit." The weakness of the move itself is the ridiculous kill power disappears after 1/4 of the distance is traveled and it has the same end lag as regular skull bash for about half the...

ESAM still goes out to local tournaments. He's just no longer committed. MVD does play Duck Hunt, except Duck Hunt loses to pretty much all the top tiers. I can't blame him for picking up Diddy as a pocket character, as he doesn't really have bad match-ups with anyone, least of all the top tiers.

That's kinda the point I was making. If people are still going "omg borke da geme!!! bann!!" when they look at customs with 4 days left until the solidified EVO rule set, then it seems the community hasn't been informed enough. Not that I'm trying to blame anyone, but stands to reason that...

To be honest, those two customs are pretty game changing for Pikachu. ESAM talked about in the post-tournament interview. Pikachu as a character, excels at racking up damage but can only kill with a hard read or if the opponent doesn't DI the up-throw to Thunder. Factor in the Thunder Wave...

Dude, even the worst match ups in Melee and Brawl were only around 30:70 at worst. Those involved chaingrabs, infinites, and various other zero-to-death. Smash 4 has none of those. There's no possible way for ZSS to counter Rosalina that hard. Edit: wait forgot ganon had like a 10:90 match up...

Throwing out jabs in neutral stops almost everything except Falcon Kick and Dash Attack. With customs on then we can really harass Falcon with Shooting Star Bits. Falcon's speed and kill power is a headache, I personally think he's one of the best Luma killers in the game. Rosa's moves come out...

Shulk is a character that is deliberately held back by a lot of factors. Terrible frame data, bad inertia, sub-par recovery, etc. He's clearly designed with the idea that Monado Arts are a serious game changer for him. It's been discussed how much of a game breaker Monado Arts would be on any...

Wait customs are official now? HUZZAH! Honestly I believe Luma warp, Shooting Star Bit, Launch Star, and Gravity Pull is the best. The potential and combo ability of Luma Warp is amazing, kill, combo, lock down. Plus it pairs up well with Shooting Star Bit. The only advantage regular Star bit...
