    Competitive Viability

    Either chase them off the edge and knock them further away, drop a Mechakoopa on 'em, or drop your ride on their face. Those are Ludwig's best gimping tools. The Mechakoopa less so, but if their percentage is kinda low it's a better option. You can also d-air to great effect, there's some...

    Yeesh. I knew Ludwig had some really low killing power, but that's just abysmal. My guess is that his low killing power is to make up for the fact that he's tough to kill (he's pretty dang heavy considering) and he's got great recovery options. At any rate, most of your kills are usually going...

    Competitive Viability

    Yeah. Ludwig is in that unfortunate middle grounds where he's mostly considered a projectile character, but he doesn't do it as well as actual projectile characters. Yet, he's still considered a close range character, but he doesn't do it as well as actual close range characters. He's a very...

    Competitive Viability

    Which is why you typically release it behind you, or you chase your Mechakoopa to keep up pressure. Being afraid your opponent is going to grab your Mechakoopa so much that it keeps you from using it is silly. It's like ROB players not using the gyro because it can get caught in mid-air, or...

    Competitive Viability

    I've been playing Bowser Jr. (henceforth referred to as Ludwig in this post, because he's the best Koopaling and who I personally use as far as alternates go) quite a bit since I acquired the game. I've been doing quite well with him. 120 W/29 L so far with him. Not particularly spectacular, but...

    Important The Ridley for SSB4 Thread - End of an Era

    Considering we've got Mewtwo as DLC coming, I'm not willing to take anyone off the table 'til they show us more of what they have planned for DLC.

    New Survival Mechanic In Smash 4 - "Vectoring"

    It's probably a glitch. ;)

    New Super Mario 3D Land, Tomodachi Life Music Added to Smash 3DS

    I can't be the only one thinking most of the music being shown on the website is a bit on the meh side. Here's hoping these tracks sound better on an actual 3DS.

    Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

    D L C I mean, Mario Golf and Mario Kart of all things got DLC, and not just trivial DLC. They actually considerably expanded content in both games. The empty space isn't there for more characters in the final roster like people are saying. The empty space is there for character DLC. At any...

    New Kirby, Mario and Luigi Songs For Smash 4

    Can't say I'm surprised that the Kirby song is one of the best sounding ones revealed so far. Next Up: HQ samples of Kid Icarus music.

    Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

    Once the dust settled on the Gematsu Leak debunking, everyone pretty much agreed that if any of the remaining two characters in the Gematsu Leak were to become reality regardless of the leak, it'd be Shulk. Turns out we were right. Don't really need the names on the 3DS version either way...

    Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

    I can see it. How nice of the leakers to soften the blow for us.

    Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

    To make it seem like they have actual credibility so they can stir the pot later with more fake stuff. Let's be honest with ourselves here a moment. The average person is gullible as hell. I mean, even though we should've learned our lesson from other fake leaks, people are still believing text...

    Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

    It's safer to assume everything is fake until proven real. We actually know we have a real leak because we have constant instances of pure, irrefutable evidence. Metal Sonic is realistic - after all, Sonic is a third party character and we can argue that they'd not follow Sakurai's wacky clone...

    Potential Roster/Stage Leak Thread

    Right. Good game design for unlocks would be "beat Classic Mode with ten characters.". Forcing you to replay with a single character is both boring and bad game design, as you said.
