I might have made something that relates to this Insieme per la vittoria !

My personal hope would actually be Lora / Jin for Smash, as Lora's fighting style in particular is super unique with her elemental whip mixed with hand-to-hand combat. It could also serve as "advertisement" for the Torna DLC, if that helps the justification, but I know honestly that Rex is a far...

It's pretty fun when this happens, but this probably was a story more worth sharing in a social thread than making its own thread :P Still, glad to see you had fun playing Shulk!

THEORY: It takes ~11 frames of holding Special before the Monado Art "Dial" appears. This indication is based on a yellow glow that you see around Shulk as he is changing arts: At first I mistook this glow for Monado Shield, but as you can see when you slow down the clips, this is Vanilla...

Actually, the days aren't gone; it seems as though you can choose to do either the cycling or the instant selection method. I like this choice as it gives you the flexibility to choose which method you want, especially since MALLC relies somewhat on a delay before the art activates.

So far what has me a little :( is the current state of running not crossing up Shields. That means no more Monado Speed pivot grabs through shielding opponents from across the stage. Maybe it was one of the "bug" Sakurai said he saw, but who knows. Now pivot grabs will mainly be used for the...

Hey, I'm glad it was fast enough to mistake for a new aerial :D I smell buffs incoming

Since Shulk has very little content regarding his entry in Smash Bros Utlimate, and is currently unplayable in the demo versions available, this can be a place to speculate and theory craft how Shulk will be in the new game based on what we have seen / known / heard from others. Until we can...

First observation: Shulk appears to be able to select an art both by cycling and by using the instant select. If MALLC is still in, the cycling option will still be nice as you can input an aerial before the art activates. Otherwise I see the latter option as being purely optimal as the art...

For all this negativity, I want to share that I have personally absolutely adored the Smash community + want to say that the vast majority of Smashers are stand up people and really wonderful :) I really only felt awkward in the community when I was first joining, which I think all newbies feel...

Ayyy that's my Monado Boy! <3

Interesting idea using a fastfall to "squeeze" two frames into one! If you say it's possible to get consistent at, it's definitely something worth talking about. Dragonbrain has mentioned to us that he's randomly triggered Vision Sliding (he claims; no video evidence yet) when performing...

This is a confirm that we are aware of, but thanks for the explanations / diagrams! However, in my experience, MABD confirms from Buster -> Vanilla require a lot of commitment, which can make them suffer in terms of viability. For example, in your example, in order to nair confirm into fsmash...

Ahh this is my happy place ! For those who are interested for stuff of a different nature, I have a playlist of some of my personal favourite live renditions of Xenoblade tunes here. If you listen to one of them, listen to this massive collaborative piece (20+ minutes, but spoilers within!)...

Those are actually profile cards I made for a bunch of Shulk mains (link is here)! I described flexibility as their capability to switch between different play styles in a match. In a sense, switching between passive and active play, as well as aggressive or defensive play. All of the values in...
