I've noticed that Amiibo can only be used in offline Smash mode. I suppose each of the other modes has some kind of justification for not allowing Amiibo: Online with Friends would require its own mode, the Amiibo presumably have no AI for Master Hand/Fortress, Event Matches, etc. Well, first...

I used it for a while. Honestly, I just never found it that useful, even though I really want it to be awesome. The range is really small, the charge time is too long for my tastes, and even when I do land it, it's powerful, sure, but not really powerful enough to warrant using it. It's not like...

I got a CPU character with it on the 3DS version, once...I don't think that counts.

The second custom move is built for reflecting, as it comes out a lot faster, R.O.B. stays in place and doesn't lean, and I'm pretty sure it reflects better, too.

I sometimes try to taunt at the beginning of a match, but it's risky, of course. I don't get salty about those who take the opportunity for a free hit, though; That's the risk you take when taunting. On a semi-related note, I wish Falcon's up-taunt was a fiery pelvic thrust accompanied by a...

Bowsercide got nerfed? Laaame. And to add insult to injury, the update disabled previous replays. So now I don't have my replay of my Bowser piledriving Link into a Star and offstage in the last two seconds of a match. Alas.

It seems the primary difference between Pocket and Chomp is that Pocket has invincibility frames, while Chomp doesn't. I imagine this had led to some misconceptions about Villager "Pocketing" things that were actually just avoided with the invincibility frames, like it did with Link's Final Smash.

Pikachu's Skull Bash is easily shut down with Chomp. I assume the same applies to Green Missile. Fairly certain all "Item" projectiles like Gyros and Peanuts can be easily and consistently eaten, as they could in Brawl. Mr. Saturn and Pokeballs still can't be eaten. Rob's Laser couldn't be...

Stop that. There are no "slots." It's not "Well, we were going to put in Ghirahim, but we decided on Dr. Mario instead, and we can only have X amount of characters." It's "Is Ghirahim worth putting in the game?" Not to mention the fact that clones require considerably less effort and resources...

Huh, so Mighty Falcon Punch deals LESS damage and knockback? That's unfortunate.

Is it just me, or does Gyro not fly as far as it used to? Something about it just seems weaker to me this time around, and I feel myself using it a lot less than I did in Brawl.

I will say that the range of Diffusion Beam sucks compared to the other laser final smashes.

I, too, am biased toward the Brawler. Fast, powerful, and so, so satisfying.

Huh, Dog feels a lot faster than he actually is. I would have guessed he was closer to the top.

Damn, Bowser can outrun Toon Link? Dude's a beast in this game.
