Only the 3DS patches contain all the previous patches, while the Wii U patches are able to patch previous patched versions, hence the much smaller patch size on Wii U. Patching a vanilla copy of Wii U to 1.1.6 would actually be 3.1GB (according to the pages linked above).

For anyone wondering why the 3DS patch is so much larger than the Wii U patch: The Wii U patch is actually 3.1GB (this is mentioned on the page linked above), but the Wii U is capable of patching from a previous patch, and it's only 61MB to patch from 1.1.5. The 3DS patch is 325MB but has the...

I think we can all agree that Monado Arts is the best ability in terms of just how useful it is, but one in particular that I really like is Link's Hero Bow. Kirby being able to stay in the air for long periods of time gives you a lot of options when it comes to charging mindgames with a fast...

I've been maining Kirby since Smash 64 and this was long before I knew what a tier was. I am someone who likes to play on random because I like a lot of diversity between matches. When you main Kirby, each matchup gives you an entirely new move in his copy ability, and thats why I main him...

Oh, is there no medium tatsumaki?

Kirby is a useful counterpick (wrecks a lot of fast-fallers with his new fthrow combos) but still has a hard time against a lot of high tier threats. Upper mid-tier sounds about right.

Dair into Inhale works on nearly everyone in the latest patch (basically everyone who isn't Jigglypuff), so at low percentages you can easily get an ability with an Fthrow -> Dair -> Inhale. Less situational than Utilt, if you're looking for reliable ways to get an ability.

I should probably point out that I have nobody to help me test things, so if the Run AI doesn't DI away, then this list is only accurate for no DI. Still useful, I suppose.

Something I've been wondering since Ryu was released is what the frame windows are for performing medium specials. As in, what is the minimum and maximum number of frames you can hold the special button to perfom medium specials? Light and heavy specials are easy to do, but I have trouble doing...

You can do even more than that. http://smashboards.com/threads/kirbys-1-10-buffs.412198/page-3#post-19804159 Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Uair works on Wario.

Made a list of how many times you can dair in an fthrow chain from 0% on each character. To be more specific, 1 time means you can do Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> not Dair, 2 times means you can do Fthrow ->, Dair ->, Fthrow -> Dair, -> Fthrow -> not Dair, ect. 3 Dairs (44%-47%) :4mario...

From 0%, I was able to make a 48% combo using on Run AI Bowser in Training. Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Dair -> Pummel -> Fthrow -> Jump -> Fair Is this escapable? I know the Run AI will attempt to airdodge (it couldn't in this combo), but are there other ways to escape it...

From 0% against a level 9 Run Bowser in Training, i was able to deal 48% using Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Dair -> Fthrow -> Dair -> Pummel -> Fthrow -> Jump -> Fair Can't get the last fair to link without throwing that pummel and that jump in there. I've tested the top row of the 3DS CSS so...

Despite dealing 2% less damage, Kirby's Fthrow actually KOs 24% earlier than before (from 238% to 214%). I don't know if the scaling was increased or if it's the result of a new angle.

The 1% damage nerf on Kirby's upward fsmash sourspot made it KO 11% later, if thats worthwhile information. 146% -> 157%. I figure this wasn't really meant to be a nerf so much as an "evening out". His fsmash angles do 16%, 15%, and 14%, and previous the sourspots did 13%, 11%, and 10%. Now the...
