    Sexism in smash bros in general and character design:

    Ryu and Ken are the faces of the franchise, with Chun Li coming close. The devs aren't necessarily going to stuff a lot of characters from one of the third party series in Smash. It's one thing to have two non-Nintendo fighters from the same game, but three or more would be pushing it a little...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    I never knew this was a thing. Is this fix something that only matters mostly against parried point blank projectiles? Or will I also be able to act faster when parrying at mid-long range?

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    You adapted to Rivals you say? That's a legitimate life skill right there. Make sure to write that down on your resume, someone else besides me is bound to be impressed by that. Jokes aside, I don't see how this counters my point about your personal failure to adapt in Smash. Most games take...

    Make-a Mario Great Again! (Canonical Moveset Changes)

    Mario is a great example of a well designed character. His moveset showcases his history and they clearly have a purpose in his set. They mesh excellently with each other to make a very versatile and mobile combo oriented character. There is not a single bad move in his kit and I could breakdown...

    We'll just have to wait until the Smash team is completely done updating the game to say for sure. Judging by the situation, perhaps that would be by mid-late 2022.

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    It's not very common, but during the late period of Smash 4 they increased the mobility and weight stats for Mewtwo, Charizard, Bowser, Samus, etc. So I wouldn't say that mobility buffs are entirely out of the question. It's probably just something that the devs aren't willing to hand out willy...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Giving him some scooping hitboxes at the beginning of his Usmash would definitely be a quality of life buff. About his Up B, isn't the SA exclusive to the grounded version? I don't recall tanking hits in the air. I also think that every DK main should learn to B-Reverse and Wavebounce his Down...

    Official Competitive Character Impressions 2.0

    Speaking of DK, what kind of realizable improvements could you guys see to his kit? I've been paying to attention to how some characters have been buffed in the past, and I'm actually a big fan of making seemingly small changes that make a big difference on how someone plays instead of...

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    I understand what those words mean, but I'm afraid that doesn't make what you are saying more meaningful. You are just telling me that movesets are going to be better by making them "more creative, effective and viable", but you are not telling me the how. By that I mean moveset and gameplay...

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    If I'm asking it's because I don't know. There is almost never not a point in establishing dialogue, but it looks that your understanding of it is backwards. I'm also here because this is an open forum and free speech happens to be a handy thing when you got an opinion to voice. It was also...

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    I'm not the one who constantly brings up the idea of a reboot and how it would better the franchise, so it doesn't correspond to me to provide details on it. I'm one of the ignorant ones here so to speak, so if you want sell me on that idea you need to tell me HOW it would be better for the...

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    You know how a politician makes promises before an election on how they will instill better policies and systems than the currents ones, but they mostly fail to convey properly on the hows and the logistics of their operation? A common theme I notice here is that when some people bring up the...

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    Of course, that link goes on to provide examples on how popularity can affect a work in different ways. Not every example is black and white, and this goes to show that popularity doesn't inherintly make a product worse nor better. I've yet to see a good reason why Ultimate has suffered because...

    Critique Super Smash Bros.

    So you are gate keeping then? It kinda feels dysengenous when the point was about a critique of the franchise, rather than saying that something is inherently wrong for being popular. It would make more sense if at least the problem you are talking about was more frequent and the whole...

    What franchise is underapprociated/underrepresented in ultimate.

    You were the one who brought up this supposed view of Sakurai that he has on Sheik, so it falls on you to detail more about it. But anyways, in my previous post I stated how she was as part of a unique gameplay dynamic that kept going until Smash 4 where they decided to separate them and keep...
