Been playing a little with Banjo and Kazooie.

They're okay. Not anything spectacular competitively speaking, but I'm actually glad. Seems like a majority of the DLC characters have some type of gimmick that makes people perceive them as OP. Banjo is more of your basic fighter, and that's something I'd like to see more of.

Don't know just how good he'll end up being, but at least his moveset sticks to the source material.

He DOES have a gimmick. It just doesn't seem to be needed for his gameplan

So how'd you rank the confirmed DLC characters personally now that Terry joins the group?

5. :ultjoker:
4. :ulthero:
3. :ult_terry:
2. :ultpiranha:
1. :ultbanjokazooie:
1. Banjo & Kazooie (S+)
2. Joker (A-)
3. Piranha Plant (B-)
4. Hero (C+)
5. Terry (C)

Loved Terry's trailer, but with so little to go on right now and lack of a personal connection it was hard to get too excited. But it's cool he's here.

Banjo is obviously an amazing dream character and Persona 5 is one of my favorite games. Piranha Plant is an endearingly goofy fighter with some great deep cuts in the Mario lore, and the legacy of Dragon Quest is definitely worth respecting, but again, no personal connection.

If fighter 5 is in the B hype range I'll consider the Fighters Pass to overall be a huge personal win.

For those curious on what the SNES Online is releasing with tonight:
  • Super Mario Kart
  • Kirby’s Dream Course
  • Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island
  • F-Zero
  • The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
  • Super Mario World
  • Star Fox
  • Stunt Race FX
  • Super Metroid
  • Kirby’s Dream Land 3
  • Pilotwings
  • Super Soccer
  • Super Tennis
  • Brawl Brothers
  • Demon’s Crest
  • Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics
  • Super E.D.F. Earth Defense Force
  • Super Puyo Puyo 2
  • Breath of Fire
  • Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts
Not bad.

But Super Puyo Puyo 2 marks the FIFTH Puyo Puyo game on the Switch and I'm still ****ing waiting for a Dr. Mario game that's not the NES one.

WHY??!!

Yeah, I know this will be an unpopular and controversial opinion.

Didn't know much about Joker or Terry when they were announced, and I'm still iffy on them as a whole. PP is both stupid and amazing, and I'm glad we were able to get another unique Mario character in some capacity.

I’m going to get a ton of hate for this, but personally, I really hope that all of the rest of the DLC fighters (Or at least a majority) are 3rd Party.

Simply put, we may never get a gaming crossover like this for the rest of our lifetimes (I think that even Sakurai said this). For that reason alone, I really hope the DLC is as many new franchises as possible.

Because like Reggie said, this is probably the biggest crossover in all of entertainment.

Hmm,
  1. :ultbanjokazooie:. I’ve personally got little to no history with the duo, but they’re “the stars aligning once in a lifetime” character, so to speak.
  2. :ultiterry:. I like old school type of fighting games, and Terry’s a pretty solid pick. King of Fighters is up there with Street Fighter for longest running and iconic arcade fighters, so I’d say he’s a great pick. I look forward to what he can do.
  3. :ulthero:. He was going to be lower on the list. But then I actually played Dragon Quest and liked a lot more than I thought I would.
  4. :ultpiranha: .The most amusing joke character thus far.
  5. :ultjoker:.Yeah, I didn’t want Joker in. As an SMT fan, this feels like another batch of salt being rubbed in the wound.

Terry literally only showed 2 moves, there's **** all to get excited about gameplay wise, he's literally only got his SNK legacy to judge him by as we didn't even see the stage properly and I doubt that the opening theme will be a song in the game

Well the internet is totally going to not be annoying with all the obnoxious Undertale fans spamming annoying memes in Smash all day. Sorry but I'm so sick of Undertale.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. I actually prefer more 3rd party characters.

The only character that really appeals to me in the pass is Joker, but I do think all of the DLC fighters have been extremely fun to play so far. Somewhat hyped for Terry since I've had some exposure to Fatal Fury, KoF, and Garou. I just hope that he doesn't play too similar to Ryu/Ken since I suck at using them.

I agree that I want as many new series as possible, but a couple first parties wouldn’t hurt.

I remember back in August last year Noipoi Noipoi was lamenting that most of the newcomers weren't appealing to him.

How far we've come.

I can understand that and I would like a few new franchises both third party and first party (Rhythm Heaven, Golden Sun, Mach Rider, Rayman, Puyo Puyo, Shantae, Etc.) but I also would like for the five never evers to be in Smash all together as they could get removed next game. I would love for Isaac and Geno to be upgraded and have all five never evers together for what is likely only one game.

And I'd also like to see Dixie and other First party characters make the cut like Rex, Waluigi, Bandanna Dee and the already mentioned Dixie. I would love a mix of both cause while I would like to see the crossover continue to grow I would also like a little here and there in Nintendo.

Anyway in terms of the DLC rankings so far I use my own rating system, everyone starts at 3 out of 5 and depending on their stage, music and how fun they are I can add or deduct points
Joker: 5/5 He's fun as hell to play even if I don't want to try and be half decent as Joker, Mementos is beautiful and the music is great
Hero: 4/5, they're already one of my most used characters and I don't even feel bad when losing because it's so fun to just throw out some dumb **** so they earn a bonus point in gameplay. That being said the music is lacking due to Sugiyama being a ****wad and the stage itself is alright.
Banjo: 2/5 Stage is ok from what little I played of it, music sucked big time and didn't even include the one good Banjo track and Banjo himself doesn't click with me at all. I figured out dragdown nair to ftilt on my own and feel up air is a pretty good move but the rest doesn't work with me

Oh jeez, I did not know that. Thanks for the heads up, Gwen! Ha...

And despite that I rank him above Hero and Joker for the sole fact of him being a fighting game character with a severe condition of broken English.

Ehhhh, my point was more "It's not really fair to put Terry on a ranking with characters with full movesets and details available" regardless if you liked him. There's a reason he's gotten overshadowed quite a bit

I may not have a high opinion on him but surely Banjo doesn't struggle with killing or anything? It's a great burst option but idk about overall

EDIT: DP
He can confirm a fair off of a Grenade Egg or an upsmash out of a dthrow but Wonderwing is honestly one of his best options for it. Can catch spotdodges and rolls, can be used to tech chase, can 2frame, deals 25% or so and is fully invincible against anything that isn't a grab. Maybe things will change but so far Wonderwing and Grenade Egg look to be the standouts of his moveset.
