    Are DLC characters buffed?

    Hi there, I am part of the mass of enthusiastic players who are interested in the game and enjoy playing it (online and offline) without approaching a competitive level. And in my opinion, most of the DLC are usually extremely rewarding on that level. These are characters with often very cheesy...

    Q&A Smash Ultimate "Mains Advice" Thread

    Thanks. Recently I have been trying Yoshi. I'm still struggling a little bit to KO offstage because of his mobility and timing being very different than spacies. Really enjoying Yoshi though.

    How can I not care about GSP?

    Casual does not mean noob I mean people at 150k are not good but they would win very easily 100% of fights against true newbies who would be discovering the game. 150k do mistakes, don't space well, etc.. but many know how to shield, play OOS, combo with their main, etc...They are far to be...

    How can I not care about GSP?

    GSP has to be taken wiyh a grain of salt but I like QP more than arenas. Not rarely it takes a lot of time before finding the good arena for what you want and you may have to wait too much for my taste. I have no problem focusing on improvement rather than GSP. Just matter of taste.

    How can I not care about GSP?

    I m also a low GSP player. Here is my experience for those who may be interested. At your GSP level, the problem is that winning 1 game raises your GSP by around 1k and you lose it quickly, so you have to be consistent if you want to climb the GSP scale. But that is possible. With my previous...

    Character Crisis

    Sometimes feeling the same. It can be discouraging when you lose after once again Upsmash did not connect or things like that or because other characters may look overpowered in some areas compared to Falco. Still maining him for several reasons: - most stylish and fun - has some flaws but also...

    Real people in online tourneys?

    Btw I think players entering online tournaments are usually pretty decent, aren't they? Being myself a low intermediate at best, I often get bodied in the first or 2nd round. I m wondering what is their GSP.

    Q&A Smash Ultimate "Mains Advice" Thread

    My favorite character is Falco because I love taking stocks off stage and his stylish combos. However I was wondering if I I could find a character that may be played in a relatively similar way but a bit easier.I like Wolf too but his offstage game is too limited and I find frustrating how many...

    Q&A Smash Ultimate Q&A thread

    How is it important to use spot dodge (grounded)? I almost never do that and rely on shield. Watching competitive players footage, I did not notice they spot dodge a lot. Do you think it is a must to learn for an intermediate like me or should I focus on other things to improve? I m trying to...

    Q&A Bad Internet Ban (technical questions/fixes)

    I must confess I m one of these guys playing QP with a WiFi connection and that is not great. Sometimes it is laggy (not always though) and even worst not rarely I get disconnected and lose. I have even been banned for this. BTW sorry for those who may have been bored playing against me :) Now I...

    I Would Buff Byleth

    OP well summarized Byleth strengths Her range and ability to kill very early make Byleth a scary character you don't want to mess up with

    Q&A Smash Ultimate Q&A thread

    I went into an annoying bug tonight and don't know how to fix it. This happened without any reason. I played a few games everything was fine and the next fight pressing X would do a grab instead of jump. Playing with a GC controller. X button assigned to grab and Y to jump. Although I did note...

    Gamecube controllers.

    How does the new official Nintendo GCC compare with the old one and compared with the PowerA? It is true that the original one feels more sturdily built than my Hori one. What about PowerA and new Nintendo official ? The Nintendo official is so expensive... worth it or not?

    Gamecube controllers.

    I bought a Hori controller and was very happy with it until a trigger got broken. Plastic quality seems so so in terms of durability. Then I bought a 2nd hand original GC controller; honestly I prefered the Hori feel, which was a bit softer and more responsive IMO. That said I like my GC...

    Buff wishlist!

    Overall, Falco's UpSmash is a decent anti air but is not reliable against grounded opponents, even close to them.
