Spread this around. We can get Damus fixed in a single patch

Dark Samus for practice and tomfoolery, Samus for tryharding. I care more about Samus and want to do her the justice she deserves. Dark Samus is for memes and walk cancelled crouchspamming. There are days where I do one more than the other.

As stated in the patchnotes, up smash has been made easier to hit multiple times. Is the first hurtbox more consistent? Is it harder to DI out of the hits? What level of jank are we looking at? It hits consistently at 1m during most of Mario's idle animations. I have zero context if this is normal.

It gives you the option to short hop turnaround and fire off a charge shot before you hit the ground. It's an option to retaliate when you're being chased.

Knockback is a factor too. A full charge always sends your opponent flying, and will move you in the opposite direction. It's a good tool and is very threatening, but it can be predictable and has a huge impact on your follow-up if you're always using it at full charge. I personally agree with...

Bomb damage and knock back are ok and could be optimised, but the hit box change and momentum cancelling add extra utility to this move. A welcome change would be fewer tumble frames. HM can be a mixup from SM. Their comparatively slow speed and long lifetime on screen gives you an exploitable...

Ganondorf has been a fun break from Samus because of the differences in mobility and armor, but I do find I underestimate Samus's horizontal airspeed after playing dorf resulting in some pretty dumb SDs. I'd recommend looking for a character that has similar mobility characteristics.
