    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    People have been saying that but I doubt it. People always like to ride the hype and say edgy is better but meh. Dark Pit’s arrows are very strong now but Pit’s arrows still do a lot more for him. Some characters straight up die to Pit’s arrows offstage and it enables him to fight against...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Yaknow, for all this talk of wanting consistency in a swordie, nobody actually wants to play Pit. He’s got plenty of kill confirms now, his reward in damage is ratcheted up to ridiculous levels, his projectiles are crazy good (counting Dark Pit together), he’s got actual landing options, very...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    I dunno, canning EVO Japan for some meme tournament with items and Smash Balls on speaks to me loud and clear. We don’t know anything about these players involvement, and they seemingly can’t say a peep about the game. Nothing really stands out as a change they would of influenced versus...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Don’t get your hopes up. People have been asking for input lag fixes on like every Switch game and they’re not getting fixed. It’s likely inherent to the console. Why do people say this? Like seriously, why. It’s just blatantly untrue at this point. Whenever we get a new game people always act...

    We’ve been polite for years now. It’s high time we make some ****ing noise.

    Who’s ready for waves of nerfs to characters that didn’t need nerfs? Oh boy can’t wait for K. Rool to only burry people for 2 frames max lol

    Pits not as agile.

    Pit’s generally a lot faster than he was in Brawl. In Smash 4 they decided he was more about autocancels, and as a result every aerial short hop autocancels. In Ultimate they reduced his landing lag by a ton making it a more viable option to just land. Landing with multihits leads directly...

    Sounds like it was supposed to stop people from running away forever on bigger stages in FFAs more than punishing defensive players in 1v1s.

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    I get the concern, but like... Smash 4 was still probably a better game in the end, even with Cloud and Bayo. We don’t have a choice with patches. They’re inevitably going to nerf the **** out of several characters and we just have to take it. If nerfs bother you then come back in a year...

    Why does the Smash community have a stigma against sword-wielders?

    No, not really. You must of missed the entire part where I went over how many characteristics are shared.

    Wasn’t he at 4mill and some change? I currently have several characters at 3.2mill in Elite.

    Why does the Smash community have a stigma against sword-wielders?

    Sword fighters (anybody that uses a bladed swinging weapon in the majority of their normals) have a lot of similarities on top of the sword thing. For instance they overwhelmingly have bad recoveries, except for the ones with wings. They almost always have problems being juggled as well, again...

    The online in this game will stay garbage, wont it?

    I can play like 50 matches in a row on Pokken and have them be spotless, but then in Smash 70% of matches have either horrendous studdering or half a second of input lag. It’s not my connection. Hell, going back to my Wii U for Smash has been much better overall. Both are wired with proper...

    Isn’t Elite Smash more like top 30% than 1%? Which is what they said that they’d be balancing the game around... I wouldn’t be so hopeful. Especially since I doubt many actual good matches happen in Elite.

    The online in this game will stay garbage, wont it?

    I still get item FFAs in Elite Smash all the time. And the lag is still objectively worse than before.
