What's the smallest change to a character that would make them broken/overpowered?

Well, like the title says. Try to make them small changes ("Little Mac's up and side specials go the same distance in the air as on the ground") instead of total revamps ("Meta Knight becomes his Brawl self").

Giving Mega Man's Mega Buster the same attributes it has in Mega Man games. Which includes storing the fully charged shot for later and giving him the ability to move while it's fully charged.

The ability of any character to cancel any input into any input.
So, turbo mode.

Well, if every character could do that, they wouldn't be overpowered because of that. Though I imagine certain characters might benefit more.

(I just contradicted myself, didn't I?)

:4sonic: More speed.

Or a Homing Attack that KO's at around 110-120% on average.

Shulk's Monado Arts stat boosts are increased while his debuffs are decreased to the point of minimal.

Not having a cool down in Shulk's Monado Arts, if that happens everyone that use shulk will be using buster, smash and shield all day.

:4peach: Always pulls out a stitch face. :troll:

:4jigglypuff: Double the range of bair or double the size of Rest's hitbox.

:4kirby: Can act out of the descent of Final Cutter.

:4villager: Can pocket his own tree.

Villager, but with Little Mac's recovery.
(Am I doing this right)

Seriously though, if Duck Hunt Duo's smashes had less ending lag.

Palutenas USmash has the same horizontal hitbox as it does vertical.

Allowing Sonic to stay in Super Sonic form for 50 seconds. Equivalent to the amount of rings required to transform.

I'm pretty sure he can do that if it's reflected.

Happens to me all the time when I play as Pit.

Villager, but with Little Mac's ground game.
Now that I would like to see~

Pit's recovery has no freefall, Palutena's smashes have no endlag.

Job done, good fun~
