I'll try out ZSS, but my priorities are on Ivysaur and Squirtle <3

Then again, I still can't decide which character to main (at least on 2.1).

I was about to call you out on no Ike

So does ZSS not have that horrible short hop height that she had in vbrawl? That was literally the only reason I couldn't use her lol.

I'm just really eager to see how Yoshi will play in this game. I already know I'll have an ubertier main with Lucario, so now I just want my favorite smash character added for friendlies. Plus given the fact that PM does such an awesome job of making butt characters more viable, a higher tier Yoshi should be a real treat. I may even get to use him more than I currently use Lucario and Bowser.

Yoshi for 2.5! Here's hoping.

I don't see why he wouldn't be.

Any changes they made to nerf him that hard would be pretty noticeable, and I've heard no such things. Any changes he gets are probably pretty minor.

His dash attack isn't an instant fast shield pressure from a good distance anymore.

Good riddance to the old DA. Lucarios relied on that way too much and just did DA > sideb all day.

I hope they announce Ice Climbers for 2.5 but since they announced ZZS the other secret character will probably be normal Samus. I didn't see a big article about ZZS being announced on the front page of the website. I just noticed her picture was colored in lol.

They've actually confirmed that it will NOT be Samus.

Wow, didn't even realize I had double posted X_x

Lucario and Ike were both obviously way better than fox by an enormous margin.
I dunno what your point is. Ike and Lucario could both use some design tweaks. If you only want to look at a character's viability being under Fox and use that as the bar for any changes, then you're missing out on the fact that there's plenty of room for improvement design or "feel" wise. Ike being top 5 doesn't mean he's designed well lol.

I don't have a problem with tweaks. or fox or falco btw. I have a problem with how ike and lucario were handled, that being tweak-nerfed. They weren't JUST tweaked, which would have been fine with me, so long as they weren't becoming worse characters.

There are plenty of characters who would love to be anywhere Lucario or Ike, post "nerf". That alone should suggest it's not a big deal since they *hopefully* are going to be designed better and balanced easier. That's the main sticking point: better design. If they drop because now you don't just DA into Side B or because Aether is easier to edge guard, it proves those things were lame to begin with.

Examples: Brawl meta knight. ice climbers in any game.

Lucario got some buffs with his nerfs. Like breverse downb and faster dsmash.

I also heard something about canceling aurasphere charge on the ground without going into his shield animation for easier ASC followups. Don't know how much of that is true.

Is that due to buggy reasons or because you guys are still trying to figure out what to do with her?

Lol, he better :p

just this one simple change would do freaking wonders for increasing his viability. Any other cool tweaks would just be to make him more interesting.
I think the best way to keep yoshi viable is to keep him as melee as possible. The addition of being able to get his double jump out of his side b already gives him a lot of viability with all the things he had going for him in melee, and when I say making him more melee, I mean giving back his melee super armor, the way he throws his eggs, and the addition of parry.

Also has the pmbr seen my post in smash mods about charizard's face hurt box extending in front of a large empty spot in front of his face, or has this already been fixed?
