The Official Conquest Thread

[Splooshi Splashy]

This is the latest I've updated this in quite a while. 'Tis be a change in schedule to catch EVO 2015, that's why.

Wii U Results:
got 3rd place with 18% in the World & Europe & Oceania, 15% in the Americas, and 26% in Japan.
got 2nd place with 29% in the World & Europe & Oceania, 30% in the Americas, and 26% in Japan.
got 1st place with 53% in the World & Europe & Oceania, 55% in the Americas, and 48% in Japan.
Prize for 1st is Risky Respawner Gloves. If clearing Classic 9.0 without losing any stocks still eludes you, perhaps this can help out, since if you don't lose any stocks at all, then its downside is practically nonexistent.

With 1 close Wii U win, and 2 decisive wins afterwards, I think I'm ready to declare that it's official: We're in the DLC Hype Train Era. And the next Conquest is looking to keep it going...

*Repped Kirby last night against a Lucas, Ike, and a Villager, and despite taking Lucas's PK Freeze and crashing parties by shorthop charging it, as well as generally going in super hard and dealing over 350% worth of damage to the whole room, I only scored a measly 1 point, due to not being able to KO anyone, despite racking up the most damage out of everyone via party crashing.* Maybe I should've come down with Stones more often... At least I can go rep Flat Man, Puffy, and Twelve throughout the week.

Since the last patch, Flat Man's DTilt has more knockback and his BAir has less landing lag. I also forgot to mention that Mewtwo's NAir has less landing lag too. Kirby's Up-Angled FSmash's sour spot deals slightly less damage now. Nothing changed about Puffy & Fox.

The 2 people on Team Heavyweights that got changes that haven't been mentioned yet is Bowser, whose UTilt starts up & ends earlier, covers more range, and does slightly less damage, and Charizard, whose DThrow now starts juggles, Jab string has become more reliable in hitting & even KO-ing, and his UThrow is now the KO Throw that we've all expected it to be (try using it on the big tree at the Duck Hunt stage...). Triple D & Ganinnderf had no changes, and DK's had been mentioned earlier.

I really want to rep ThrowZard some more and be a part of the stacked heavy hitters team, but I shall stand by my declaration that the DLC Hype Train Era is here, and rep the Flyweights, even though all but DK on the Heavyweights Team are among the most frequent attendees of the FG FFA room.

 

[IsmaR]

I think Heavyweights got the more solid line-up. Ganon alone will make a significant impact.

Featherweights do at least have Kirby, and Mewtwo riding the coattails of DLC hype train.

Edit: Just repped Fox in doubles. Despite winning, my partner was a Bowser, so bit of a mixed bag.

At the very least I have been seeing a lot of Mewtwo.

 

[Splooshi Splashy]

2015: 07/16 - 07/23

Wii U Results:
Team Heavyweights got 1st with 53% in the World, 51% in the Americas, and 56% in Europe, Oceania, and Japan
Team Flyweights got 2nd with 47% in the World 49% in the Americas, and 44% in Europe, Oceania, and Japan
Prize for 2nd was 1000g

The 1st time on the Wii U (and the 2nd time on the 3DS) that the mighty Mewtwo, 1st member of the DLC Hype Train, has lost! It seems like we've discovered either one of Mewtwo's limitations, or that he might be the weakest member of the DLC Hype Train (Roy not Koopa has yet to show up, so it's uncertain where he stands).

*Has come back from repping Alphimar last night against a Roy not Koopa, a Link, and an Ike in the Wii U FG FFA room, and took advantage of numerous knocked back moments to edgeguard the person who got launched with me, and went to Sudden Death against the Roy, who ALMOST Dash Attack'd my DTilt, but lost to said DTilt, and scored a solid 11 points*

*Has also come back from repping Alphimar last night against a Bowser, someone I can't seem to remember, and a Mega Man who had impeccable timing & guts on his UTilt KOs, and he took 1st place while I took a meager 3 points in 3rd place*

The DLC Hype Train has stopped at a station for now. In its place for this week is the Gardener Team, Villager & Olimar, VS the Gadget Team, ROB & Mega Man.

As of this patch, Villager's DThrow got a damage buff, his standing/dash/pivot grabs all have reduced endlag, and his Up B's fuel time is now more similar to ROB's in that it now recharges noticeably slower, hurting consecutive usages (this nerf is real, I once outlasted a Villager who tried to outledge camp my Side B Jump Cancelling Iggy during Sudden Death in the 3DS FG Teams room!). Olimar's only change is that the Pikmin lineup no longer reverses from ledge grabs. No changes for either ROB or MM in this recent patch.

Considering how strong of a showing Villager had against Diddy & Olimar the last time he showed up (pre-latest patch, mind you!), he's looking to be a strong contender for this round, and Olimar's paired up with the Mayor that bodied him, so Alph will at least provide some minor support for the Mayor.

Mega Man's no slouch, considering his wonderful 2nd to last Conquest performance. ROB's UThrow nerf in the last patch has put a dent in his player base (I feel for ya, AceStarThe3rd), so like Olimar, ROB's likely going to be providing support for the Blue Bomber, though I'm suspecting it'll bring more of it than Alph will.

And now I'll ride Villager's Lloids coattails as Alphimar to what I'm expecting to be a 1st place finish. >

*Also goes back to tuning in to this Mario Marathon stream for St. Jude: http://www.twitch.tv/thespeedgamers

 

[Nexin]

I think Gadget Team is going to win this one. While I don't see any of these characters very often, R.O.B. and Megaman are, from my experience, both more common than either Villager or Olimar. While I wouldn't be surprised to see Villager become super common during this conquest, Olimar is probably not going to see that many players use him so he'll likely hold his team back.

With that said, as a former Olimar player, I'll be supporting the Gardener Team, so I want my prediction to be proven wrong.

 

[Ze Diglett]

Am I the only one who is seriously bothered by how Conquest points are distributed? Just today, I got on FG 1v1s asfor the Conquest and happened to get matched against the laggiestin the entire galaxy for my first match (which was, of course, the only match I played today with a seriously intrusive amount of lag). Of course, I barely lost because she broke out of my Up-Air twice at KO%, and I honestly feel cheated. If they need to put a limit on the number of points you can get in a day, then why don't they just make it so the first match you win is what you get points for? At least then you won't be cheated because you lost to someone due to sheer lag and luck... better luck tomorrow, I guess...

 

[FP-Takyon]

Reppin mega man this time, and Ganondorf last conquest. I expect to see a win for Gadget by the deadline.

 

[1FC0]

I think that Gadgets win due to Megaman although obvously I am conquering with R.O.B. and getting FG 1v1 wins every day since day 1.

 

[DJ3DS]

Representing the ROBSquad on 3DS, about 20 points contributed thus far.

I would not usually be optimistic about ROB'S chances but he is definitely more popular than Olimar, and Mega Man is more popular than either. Villager is probably the character I see most out of any of them though, so it could be close.

 

[Splooshi Splashy]

From my understanding of how the amount of points you earn works, the factors for earning points seem to be based on the amount of KOs you rack up and the place you earn (1st being best, obviously).

Judging from the above logic, from the order of worst to best room for racking up Conquest points in FG (at least. I'm personally not a visitor of the For Fun rooms at all), it's 1v1, then Teams, then FFA.

1v1 nets you 2 KOs at most. To reliably earn more than 1 point, you'll have to win the battle.

Teams CAN let you score more KOs, but you'll likely have to share those KOs with your teammate, and you'll have to win the battle to reliably earn more than 1-3 points (this includes winning Sudden Death).

FFA is THEE room to rack up the most KOs in, because you won't have to share any of those KOs with a teammate. EVERYONE in there is ripe for KO-ing. Even if you get 2nd or 3rd place, the amount of points you can earn is decent. Even 2nd place's points are pretty good.
THIS is the room where 10+ points is very much possible.

Is this fair for us Smashboarders? Considering that the 1v1 room is the most popular FG room out of the 3 around here, it certainly doesn't seem fair.
FG FFA is my go-to room for this, due to the above findings, and while I wish Teams and even 1v1 could generate more points per win (especially FG Teams), I cannot help but think that such a wish won't be granted. The sheer amount of points that one can rack up in FFAs (even in 2nd or 3rd place) suggests that it might be the creator-intended room for participating in Conquests....

And now we return you to our regularly scheduled program.

Wii U Results:
Team Gardeners got 2nd with 46% in the World & Europe & Oceania, 45% in the Americas, and 47% in Japan.
Team Gadget got 1st with 54% in the World & Europe & Oceania, 55% in the Americas, and 53% in Japan.
Prize for 2nd was 1000g

3DS Results:
Team Gardeners got 2nd with 46% in the World, 45% in the Americas, 44% in Europe & Oceania, and 48% in Japan.
Team Gadget got 1st with 54% in the World, 55% in the Americas, 56% in Europe & Oceania, and 52% in Japan.
Prize for 2nd was 1000g

For as much as Villager pulled Olimar's light weight, even the Mayor couldn't single-handedly win this for them. All above this post have certainly called this one.

90s Revival​

1990-1992: , , , , , ,

1992-1994: , , , , ,

1996-1998: , , , , ,

*Has come back from repping Dr. Mario against a Link and another Dr. Mario in the 3DS FG FFA room, and scored 6 points in 2nd place, with the other Doc taking 1st.*

Well well well, what a huge cast we've got assembled for this round.

As much as I'd like to go into detail about what changed for whom, this latest patch literally just came out a couple hours ago, so we've only just begun to compile the findings. If you're wanting to know about the changes, I'd suggest keeping this thread on your tabs: http://smashboards.com/threads/tournament-mode-1-1-0-community-patch-notes.412130/

From a cursory glance, the teams to look out for will be the '90-'92 & '96-'98 Teams. As mighty as Ness could still be, he's saddled with 5 notorious Conquest losers.

I'll fall back on the old adage of "The team with the most people in them win Conquests," despite the weakest member of the DLC Hype Train being on the '96-'98 Team, and rep the '90-'92 Team.

*Also continues watching SGDQ at http://www.twitch.tv/gamesdonequick
As of the making of this post at this point in time, the game being sped-run is one of the DLC for Saints Row 4.

 

[1FC0]

Conquest in FG 1v1 is a bit unfair because in 1v1 you battle a stock match which means that it does not matter how much you kill as long as you survive the longest. Thus, people in FG 1v1 should not get a point for every kill but instead for every stock that they have at the end of the game.

For example, I conquested against a Captain Falcon that I owned so badly that he SDed on his second stock, meaning that I lost 1 point because I played too good.

Also 1990-1992 is probably going to win. I am pretty sure about that. Captain Falcon is a very big one, and Yoshi and MArth are very common too. The other teams only have Ness and aside from that all their characters are pretty rare.

I think that 1990-1992 is going to win with 1992-1994 second and 1996-1998 last.

Although this is from FG 1v1 experience only since I very rarely play the other modes.

 

[abx]

Holy, I got 10.000 G this time. Pity I can't spend it on anything.

1v1 FG has one advantage: One can chose a character not participating in the current conquest and wait for a total scrub who actually stays for a second round, then switch to the character one wants to support. It can be pulled off a lot easier than in FFA. I'm not sure how popular this method is though.

I'll go with 96-98 this time, because that's basically the center of my childhood.

 

[Ze Diglett]

I'm not gonna participate in this one, but if I were a betting man, I'd bank on 90-92 winning this one, not because these have the most people, but because they have the most popular people. Falcon is basically FG the character, and Sonic and Yoshi are pretty common as well. Meanwhile, 92-94 has Ness and Fox and 96-98's got Ganon, who probably sees as much usage as Falcon, but that's really all his team's got. 90-92 1st, 92-94 2nd, and 96-98 last seems like a pretty likely scenario to me, though Ganon alone could potentially overtake the entire 92-94 team.

 

[abx]

How about working for the characters you like most? It's not like somethig were at stake.

 

[1FC0]

I conquest for the group that is going to win for the bigger prize! The previous conquest gave me Faster Shield Recharge Booster or something like that! Although I conquested for R.O.B. there because I like R.O.B. and that I expected to win was an added bonus!

 

[Nexin]

I'm going to have to say 1990-1992 is going to take this next conquest. While every team this time has one or two major characters, this team overall seems to have the most solid lineup.

For second place, I'll predict 1996-1998 as there isn't really anybody that is holding that team back heavily, but some of the characters aren't quite as strong of contenders as 1990-1992.

Finally, third place will most likely be 1992-1994. Ness is already a super common character online, plus Fox and Falco will most likely pull their weight as well, but the team also includes Diddy Kong, Wario, and Meta Knight, all of whom are pretty rare online. Since half of their team is most likely going to need to be carried, I don't see them doing way too well.

As for which team I'm going to support, it's most likely going to be 1992-1994. Its hard for me to get behind any team 100% since I don't really care that much about any of the teams. The only character I really enjoy using is Wario, so I guess I'll just play him.

 

[IsmaR]

1996-1998 very clearly has this one in the bag.

Even discounting that it's the gen most grew up with, it's comprised of both Pokemon and OoT. In other words, Mewtwo/Ganondorf.

The Key to Victory Lies Within​

VS ​

*Has come back from repping in the 3DS FG FFA room against a and a (!), and despite shaking up the crowd with many a Hydrant and Key, only scored 5 points in 2nd place against the Watch who got 1st place.*

Where's ? And when's ?

Anyways, this may seem to be a simple round, yet actually guessing a winner here might be difficult.

They have much in common; Neither have had good track records thus far, especially when they were by themselves. Neither have fast Smashes. Both have some rather quote-on-quote "janky" ways to KO folks (Pac-Man's Hydrant's Water Pushing & folks Trampolining through the stage (1.0.8 patch only??). G&W's DTilt & UAir windboxes and the Bucket when paired up with Sheik in actual Team battles.). Both have generally been left alone during the 1.1.0 patch thus far, and both have at least 1 high profile player representing them that tend to come first in peoples' minds: Abadango for Pac-Man, and GimR for G&W.

From personal experience thus far tonight, G&W seems to be the most common. Whether or not this is a sign of things to come remains to be seen.

For now, I'm repping Pac-Man. This MIGHT be the very first Conquest where I very well MIGHT change sides in the MIDDLE of it....

*Looks back at the previous Conquest results where Pac-Man and G&W were by themselves, and notices something....!*

Pac-Man's last 2 solo appearances had him in last place, and G&W's solo appearance had him in 2nd place. All 3 of my 3DS FG FFA matches featured 3 different G&W players... GimR makes more weekly appearances than Abadango does... I think I might know who to rep now. ;o

*Cue the Characters Selection Theme from Skullgirls* "Let's go Flat Man!" *Cue beeps 'n boops from a dark blue-green G&W*

 

[Wintermelon43]

YES TEAM KIRBY WON!!!!!!!! Although I guess it was obvious since Marth and Captain Falcon were in it.

 

[Splooshi Splashy]

As some of you may have noticed, I've finally tricked out my avatar and signature with MegaYoshi, made by HedgehogMac, aka HM Hibiki, over at YouTube and the Mugen Wikia. Sadly, MegaYoshi's nowhere to be seen at Mugen Wikia, greatly limiting his exposure to the world. Thankfully, he IS available for download, over at HM Hibiki's YouTube channel if you want to check him out for yourself. In terms of gameplay, he is one of my absolute most favorite characters to play as in Mugen, alongside Zangoose, Seku's D4 Kirby , and even Royce's Duck Hunt Dog (though his inability to do Normals xx Special/xx Supers does hurt his punish power), for MegaYoshi is a fusion of the best parts of Marvel VS Capcom 1/2 Mega Man and Mike's second version of Yoshi, plus SF3:3S Parries, KOF-styled Rolls & Spotdodges, a more practical & longer (instant) airdash that knocks down on hit, and so much more. While Bowser Jr may not exactly be there in Mugen, but give me someone like a Melty Blood or Scarlet Weather Rhapsody character and I'll have my lovely Jump Cancels on deck.

The orange Yoshi in my avatar isn't actually normally selectable. I got that orange color from Mike's second version of Yoshi. That particular firing stance is from the most recent version of MegaYoshi (as of the making of this post) released back at the end of January. It's from one of his new intros where he starts off that small, firing lemons (with the classic MM7 sounds :D) that don't actually hit the opponent for some reason, until he spontaenously enlargens himself Mushroom-style to the size you see in my signature.

As for the other colors, from left to right:

1. The Proto Man outfit with the MMX4-6-esque (?) standing stance is MegaYoshi's 2nd Color (MK).
2. The classic Green Yoshi with the equally classic MM7 standing stance is MegaYoshi's 7th Color (Start+LK).
3. MegaYoshi's 12th Color (Start+HP) is the NES Punch Out stance, which is actually an unused stance that's located within the megamanyoshi.def data file in MegaYoshi's folder that I've investigated using Fighter Factory 3.
4. The 16 Bit MegaYoshi that's nervously shaking his foot (one of his win poses that he does over the opponent's fallen body) is the 11th Color (Start+MP).

I COULD have used one of MegaYoshi's other colors like his 8th Color (Start+MK for -- Don't fret, folks. While MegaYoshi is very much capable of being as campy as he is, he's got just as many, if not more tools to aggressively rushdown folks with, I can assure you. Plus, aggressive rushdown is usually more rewarded in traditional 2D fighters than it is here in Sm4sh, for there's blockstrings, 50/50 mixups, chip damage, attacks/grabs that can score hard knockdowns setting up for said 50/50 mixups, and more.) for his pinpoint accurate to MM7 walking style (which is actually one of the absolute fastest walks out of all the Mega Men and even Yoshies out there in Mugen), but then I wouldn't have any room in my signature for giving credit to HedgehogMac / HM Hibiki.

And now for our regular Results broadcasting:​

Wii U:
got 2nd with 48% in the World, 49% in the Americas, Europe, & Oceania, and 45% in Japan (!?)
got 1st with 52% in the World, 51% in the Americas, Europe, & Oceania, and 55% in Japan (What about the rest of Asia?)
Prize for 1st was a Thistle Jump Microchip with +71 Speed and -32 Attack (!?)

3DS:
got 2nd with 48% in the World, 49% in the Americas, 54% in Europe, & Oceania, and 44% in Asia (THERE we go. That's more like it.)
got 1st with 52% in the World, 51% in the Americas, 46% in Europe, & Oceania, and 56% in Asia
Prize for 1st was a Thistle Jump Microchip with +71 Speed and -32 Attack (!?)

The 1st time that I switched sides in the MIDDLE of a Conquest actually paid off! 8O As the Stream Monsters would like to say, "The Gimz Always Winz~!" *scrolls back to a previous Conquest where G&W lost to Bowser Jr* Well, ALMOST. XP
Also, what's with the discrepensy for Europe & Oceania's 3DS numbers? Are there more 3DSes over there or something? A privileged imported Pac-Man game that America didn't get like Terranigma or DBZ Super Butouden 1 or something??

08/13/2015 - 08/20/2015
Battle of the Alter-Egos
Team Dr. Mario: &
Team Zero Suit: &
Team Sheik: & ​

*Has come back from repping against a , , and a , and while I've made to Sudden Death against the Villager, I confidently Caped his Lloids, and when I was about to come down on him with a NAir while his Lloid's in front of him, I was thinking "I clanked with his Lloid! Now lemme just Jab string him outta there..." However, the Lloid stuck around, blowing up my last sentence's plan to smithereens, and I scored 8 points in 2nd place*

I've definitely chosen my alter-ego, and it's . I'll be repping him instead of the Plumber, whose last Conquest performance is what I'm trusting in.
"But what about Miss FAir?" you may ask. "Wouldn't you want to be repping as a way to have 's support without actually being Miss FAir?" While that DOES sound like something I'd do, with the question "Isn't she errywhere in FG 1v1 due to being teh #1 character in all of Sm4sh right now?" getting a yes being one of my reasons;
1. There's that one time where I sold out to Sheik in a Conquest and utterly lost for it against ,
2. Her track record thus far isn't that good either,
3. She's apparently hard to play online when there's lag,
4. I personally don't see her that often in FG FFAs, where the biggest source of points are located, and when I do, she's usually getting wrecked by folks like , , and , because of her low weight, low on-stage KO power (off-stage gimps at crazy low %s are what she's great at, though), and a lack of super-quick/strong crowd-clearing moves.

As for the Samuses... They've usually been pretty far in the background as far as I can tell. Their track records aren't too good either. I myself don't recall documenting either of them winning too often either.

The teams to look out for would be the Marios and Zelda/Sheik.

 

[1FC0]

I supported G&W too but I got only 1000G. Did I maybe not submit enough points? I gave 0 to Pac-Man.

 

[abx]

I'm going to rep Zelda because I'm a Zelda fanboy. Screw calculations.

 

[Wintermelon43]

I'm going to rep Zelda because I'm a Zelda fanboy. Screw calculations.

Oh no NOT THE FANS!!!!!!

(Although I guess only the fangirls are problems)

 

[1FC0]

Zelda might have a decent chance because of Sheik though.

But I think that she will end up last and Mario is going to win. Personally I am going to try to rep Dr. Mario because I think that he is going to win and also because he happens to be my favorite of the 6.

 

[Nexin]

Samus and Zero Suit Samus, simply due to the formers constant use online, likely have the best chance of winning, though Mario and Dr. Mario have a decent chance as well. Zelda is not very common, and most For Glory players that use Shiek don't have the execution to land any of her kill moves (which is even harder to do if the lag is bad), so I believe they are getting last place.

I like playing both Mario and Dr. Mario so I'm repping them.

 

[DJ3DS]

I supported G&W too but I got only 1000G. Did I maybe not submit enough points? I gave 0 to Pac-Man.

I got 10000 and I submitted 2 points.

As for this conquest, submitted a couple for Mario as that's who I expect to win.

 

[1FC0]

I contributed 6 points to Dr. Mario which is nice seeing as how I sometimes cannot find people even if I leave my 3DS searching for hours, which means that I may not be able to contribute every day.

 

[Splooshi Splashy]

There DOES seem to be a minimum amount of points needed to get the Equipment Prize, but I have no idea what that minimum amount is. If I had to guess, it'd be.... 10 points?? If that's the case, then either 1 good (1st place) or 2+ decent (2nd or 3rd place) FG FFA session(s) in 1 to 3 days should net you that amount easily, depending on the character/side you're contributing towards. Folks like , , and have it pretty easy, due to their immense KO power in their normally laggy moves that's easier to smuggle in big crowds, whereas folks like , (if you don't go off-stage), and (as much as I don't want to admit it, he's not common in FG FFAs for a legit reason) tend to struggle, due to their low on-stage KO power (at least DH's FSmash got bigger in this most recent patch FrankerZ). For ease in KO-ing amongst this cast, try , , and .

I probably should start including the amount of points I myself earned during a week, in which case, I earned 59 points for and 5 points for on the 3DS version. For those not aware, you have to wait 16 hours before contributing any more points for anyone. The Wii U amount I do not recall off the top of my head, aside from 1 point for , so I cannot report the exact amount just yet. It was at least 20+ for , from what I recall.

 

[1FC0]

I think that I am going to keep track of what prize I get and how many points I contributed to each character.

Pretty unfortunate for me that I did not know this because I would have liked the Thistle Jump Microchip, and I assumed that it did not matter how many points that I contributed =(

What is even lamer is that R.O.B. can not use microchips. R.O.B. is a robot he must have microchips and I am sure that the original had them too so why can only GaymenWatch use microchips?

I think that the logic is that faster microchips make for faster processing thus making G&W faster. But R.O.B. needs fast processing too because Laser & Gyro Logic is very complicated I am sure!

 

[IsmaR]

I also got 10,000g on the winning Game and Watch side. (surprised that we won, honestly). I had something around 17 points.

New Conquest!
August 14th August 21st.

Battle of the Alter-Egos

Red Team: Team Dr. Mario:
Blue Team: Team Zero Suit:
Green Team: Team Sheik:

There's been an odd Gap in the 3DS Conquest in my absence...odd...

 

[1FC0]

I also got 10,000g on the winning Game and Watch side. (surprised that we won, honestly). I had something around 17 points.

How many points did you give to the other teams?
Today I lost on purpose in order to get 10 points in total. But if you got the bad prize with 17 then that was for nothing.
In that case it would probably be better to get 20 points to see what the minimum amount of points to get the good prize is. So I should have won because now I probably cannot get to 20 anymore if I lose a battle.

Welcome back @ TaRtOoN-Hand94 , I was wondering what happened to you. It's great to have you back, safe and sound. Thankfully, I've been holding this thread down in your absence throughout the month (I've been wanting to say "holding it down," ever since those Twitch Streamers started saying it while giving shout-outs to peeps. XD), and thanks for updating one of the 3DS Conquest results I myself forgot to cover. As for that missing 3DS Conquest between the Gardeners and Gadgets, I've got it covered earlier on this page. I didn't use any faces for it, though, so look for a post devoid of faces.

It seems like my guess of 10 points minimum completely blew up in our faces. I'm shocked that you would sandbag on your own Conquest point gathering attempt, 1FC0. I've never even thought of trying that, and I'd only sandbag via focusing on damage building and not deliberately KO-ing anyone with the proper KO moves if 1. it's my 2nd+ round in the FG FFA room that I usually do after my Conquest attempt (usually up to 3 rounds total in any given session), and 2. I'm certain that one of my opponents is using a character that's in the Conquest attempt. To me, the allegiances doesn't matter, for even if that character is on a team I'm rooting against, I'll contribute to the damage building, for I want those other players to earn 20+ points for whoever they're rooting for, so that if said character(s) win, they'll actually get Equipment for it. *INB4 Stream Monsters calling me out for "Collusion" with SwiftRage Twitch faces*

I usually give 0 points to other teams, and as I did so in this instance.

I believe the way points add up is you get points equivalent to the difference between your highest scoring team - combined total of any points for any other team.

And the Results Are:

Team Dr. Mario Wins with 42% in the whole World, 44% in the Americas, 37% in Europe and Oceania, and 42% in Asia.
Team Zero Suit Second with 34% in the whole World, 31% in the Americas, 35% in Europe and Oceania, and 36% in Asia.

New Conquest!
August 21th August 28th.

Verdant in Victory

Red Team: Team Link:
Blue Team: Team Palutena:


Welp, Team Palutena has 2 of my mains on it, but Team Link has 3. Team Palutena also has Little Mac on it. they don't need my help.
...
Reppin' Team Link all the way!

I can confirm the 2nd to last post above mine with a previous Conquest result earlier on this page. In the Pac-Man VS G&W Conquest I've mentioned above, the 59 points I've contributed to G&W on the 3DS version was reduced by the 5 points I've contributed to Pac-Man on the 3DS version, making the total amount of points I've contributed to that Conquest on the 3DS version 54 points. The lesson here is that if you want to qualify for any Equipment prizes, you must pick a side and stick to that selected side. Wavering in your support for one side by trying to balance it out with points for another side will reduce the total amount of contributed points, and depending on how many points all the sides have, you may end up disqualifying yourself from earning the Equipment prize, even if the side you have the most points for turned out to be the winning side. As for the minimum amount of points needed to earn the Equipment prize, the jury's still out on that fact, but my current estimate is 20 points minimum until proven otherwise, due to 17 points not being considered high enough to earn it.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Wii U Results:

08/13 - 08/20
Team Mario got 1st with 43% in the World & Americas, 39% in Europe & Oceania, and 45% in Japan (/Asia?)
Team Samus got 2nd with 31% in the World & Americas, and 33% in Europe, Oceania, and Japan (/Asia?)
Team Zelda got 3rd with 26% in the World & Americas, 28% in Europe & Oceania, and 22% in Japan (/Asia?)
Prize for 1st is a Lingering Edge Tie. Stats unknown for now.
Points given on the Wii U version for Team Mario was 42.

Prize for 1st is a Lingering Edge Tie with +80 Defense and -31 Speed (!?)
Points given on the 3DS version for Team Mario was 81. Could this have any correlation with how uber the last 2 Equipment pieces I have gotten are?

Team Zelda got last place? I should've known something was up when I kept seeing Full Suited Samuses surprisingly often throughout last week...


"ALL GREEN!" - Litchi Faye-Ling, BlazBlue, during her Forward, Back, Down, Up + C Super (Hey, wasn't that the motion for Fatal Fury 2/Special's Big Bear/Raiden's Command Throw as well? :o)

*Has come back from repping in the 3DS FG FFA room against a , a (!), and a , who I took to Sudden Death, where I first tried to catch with the SH FAir Train, who managed to escape and retreat towards the ledge, only to push me away to the other ledge, and then I retreated to said other ledge after feeding him my Mecha. While I was expecting to challenge his ledge hanging powers (which can been bolstered with the walls present in the Omega stage we were at) with my own Side B Jump Cancel propelled ledge hanging powers, he instead rushed over to where I was for the attempted interception. I hugged the area above the ledge with my USmashes long enough to spook him into letting go of said ledge, and when he lost the invincibility upon having to make a 2nd trip to the ledge, I threw out an down-angled FSmash FTW, just before the Bomb-Ombs started falling, and scored a solid 11 points for it.*
The whole replay for that match has been sent to the 3DS U.S. FG FFA area of the servers under the name "JustBe4 Bombs..."

*Cue Advance Wars's Green Earth Theme*

"When's ?" : The new "When's Mahvel?" As the only character that has yet to be in a Conquest, I legit wonder how he'll do when it's his time to shine. Maybe he'll face off against &/or ...
For me this week, THIS will be my boy. :3

It may not be St. Patrick's Day, but for us, it shall be St. Patrick's Week, in regards to all the green.

Some of you may be wondering if I'm going to rep Yoshi at any point this week, due to all these sprited Yoshies that have recently adorned my posts. Sorry to disappoint you folks (and others I'm certain will be pleased to read this), but nope, I won't, because gameplay-wise, just isn't as interesting or as hype as MegaYoshi. Plus he's frowned upon as a creator of salt piles more than I would like him to be. Were this Mugen, I most certainly would be repping MegaYoshi, due to reasons stated in last week's Wii U Results. Generally, he's a better & to me, due to being able to convert stray normal pokes into specials and even supers, even in the air, on top of having numerous movement and attack options to comparison to their separate Sm4sh counterparts. Alas, he's not in Sm4sh (for completely understandable reasons, of course), and thus I will not rep him. 'Tis unfortunate, for this pinpoint-accurate-to-MM7 walking style of surprisingly high speed probably would've probably been beautifully and smoothly rendered in 3D and HD 1080p:

'Tis be the 8th outfit of his I mentioned last week, btw.

Regardless, I'm still honored to be able to join forces with you as the Koopalings for this Conquest, Tartoon. Our entire team composition got some buffs, and only Palutena and Lil' Mac got any noteworthy buffs on the other team. While I'm strongly suspecting Team Palutena to be the winners of this week, mainly due to Bowser & Lil' Mac, as a Jr loyalist, I shall stand by Team Link's side to the end of this week. Who knows, maybe the Link that came out when he was paired with Shulk half a year ago will resurface to help us out. Perhaps the Jr that triumphed over Doc & G&W all by himself can come out as well.

*Cue Crazy Chocobo by Shootie HG from the Final Fantasy 13-2 OST* *Drives off into the distance in his own Koopa Clown Car as the line "HIT THEM OFF WITH DA GREENS I'M GONNA GOOO!" is belted out by me (because Mondegreens can happen, even with headphones~ Like folks who thought Ryu was saying "Attack that squirrel jet!" during his Hurricane Kick, back in the SF2 days. XD) before being too far out for the rest of the song to be heard by me...*

It'll be an honor serving with you, Prince Koopa. Let's show your dad what for!
Also, Sploosh, I saw your replay. Good stuff good stuff. But if you think nobody saw Little Mac recover when you failed to...

Seriously though, good stuff. Now I have something to look forward to looking for in Share.

 

[1FC0]

I am going to get exactly 20 points this conquest. I think that I now have 18 points so tomorrow I will be playing FF and try to get 1 kill and lose. Then I will hope that Team Link wins and to confirm that the minimum is 20 or lower.

Also what is the theme of this conquest? Most conquest have a theme, like characters with keys or robot vs robot, but I did not see a theme this conquest.

I think the theme is the color green.

Verdant in Victory. Every character is associated with the color green.

But what seperates the characters from one group from the ones in the other group, or what do the characters have in common with the other characters in their groups?
