Smash WiiU & 3DS Miiverse Daily Pic - August 13th

[Smashboards]

Super Smash Bros. for WiiU & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai said: "Pic of the day. "Looks like there was an impostor in the earlier posts, so I introduced him to my sword!" ...I'll leave it up to your imagination if he really said that or not. The veteran hero, Meta Knight, returns to battle!! We didn't forget the Battleship Halberd either!!"

He also included a second picture saying "Meta Knight's Up Special Move, Shuttle Loop, changed quite a bit in this game. The glide is gone, and the attack slashes opponents twice while spinning in a large loop. This has turned into a highly technical and effective move."

HE'S BACK!

 

[Kipcom]

HE'S LIVIN!

 

[poisontongue]

Master Troll did not let suffering last too long...

 

[Shin F.]

Smashboards went down as soon as he was revealed.

Clearly, he's still too broken.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Oh boy let the salt flow from Brawl.

 

[Claire Diviner]

 

[Xigger]

Give it to me straight, Sakurai: just how nerfed IS he?

 

[Deleted member]

YESSSSS!!!!!!! I LOVE meta knight he is like the batman of nintendo!

 

[Katakiri]

Smash Boards crashes as soon as Meta Knight returns. Can't be a coincidence.

 

[Unicorn]

Great now we have to add SS tier to the smash 4 Tier list.

 

[Grey Belnades]

Prepare for METAKNIGHTWINSLOL.

 

[Smashiny]

IS it just me, or did Metaknigh also just confirm axew as a Pokeball pokemon?

 

[Swiftie_Muggle]

YEAH!!!!!

 

[TurnUp]

AIGHT IF THOSE GAUNTLETS AREN'T THE COOLEST THING I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS

 

[Phazon117]

Ridley's wings confirmed.

 

[Dust the Baptist]

Meta Knight to swole.

 

[Mattzarella]

I was waiting for the update so I could finally sleep but now I am too hyped, dammit!

 

[WwwWario]

Victory... is my destiny!

 

[Cerealman]

One word. #BANNED

 

[TurnUp]

IS it just me, or did Metaknigh also just confirm axew as a Pokeball pokemon?

We can see Garchomp, Hydreigon, Axew and Dragonite in that picture.
My guess is that it's Drasna's room in the Elite 4.

 

[Ghostbone]

Any hope of Bowser being top tier just disappeared with the reveal of MK

Oh ok then, that makes sense

"Looks like there was an impostor in the earlier posts, so I introduced him to my sword!"

Please tell me EVERYONE did the Kirby! Right back at ya! Meta Knight voice with this.

 

[ShinyReshiram]

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY LORD SAKURAI

 

[zanryo]

"highly technical"
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

 

[Dunk Master]

A highly technical move, eh? Tell me more...

 

[Tristan_win]

Oh joy, i wonder if they change anything else beside his up B...

 

[Anthinus]

YES! YES!

 

[Hmmmm]

At least Sakurai didn't troll us by making the PotD a new item in use or a gameplay pic or something after that grueling wait!

 

[Zoa]

Sakurai is enjoying the salty tears from Brawl.

 

[Shorts]

#realtalk

if you thought he was cut youre ********

 

[RedRambo4]

Yaaaaaaaass! I wanna see what his B-up looks like in a Gif or video

 

[Ryu Myuutsu]

Aww, his glide is gone as well. Oh well, good to see him back.

Hope he gets the nerf he needed but let him stay good as well.

 

[RascalTheCharizard]

Honestly I despise Meta Knight everywhere except in the anime. So with that in mind, yes I do wish to kill myself.

 

[Mr.Seven]

I swear, he better be fixed this time around. He was easily my most hated character because he was so overpowered.

 

[mark welford]

<------ this guy needs to get revealed but other than that I'm glad metaknight returns

 

[IsmaR]

I really hope this means that they'll reveal Samus next.

 

[Dust the Baptist]

Honestly I despise Meta Knight everywhere except in the anime. So with that in mind, yes I do wish to kill myself.

hey at least pm showed that he can be nerfed, and also the glide mechanic is now gone, and balance does seem to have a very heavy focus this time. So maybe he wont be broken. Maybe

 

[-LzR-]

Don't worry guys! I'm sure 90% of smashers will still be playing him in Smash4 even when he is super nerfed because they just really like how technical the guy is right?
