Watching pro matches, the amount of work that Mario has to do is just depressing. Watching his up-tilt fail when the opponent's right next to him is disgusting. I expected him to be worse, but not as bad as this.

I was excited to see that I could play 1v1 games and not be stuck on final destination for every match, but it seems to have equal weighting with every other preference. I'm sure I'm far from the only one with no interest in free-for-alls.

Regardless of the characters they picked and how the audience acted, stalling a match during the Grand Finals and requiring an organizer to intervene and get them to continue is simply disgraceful.

I'm not not saying that it needs to rocket people horizontally. I'm not even necessarily saying that horizontal physics need to be adjusted. It's having characters being shot up, aiding their recovery and making their landing more ambiguous with which I have an issue.

I've noticed in a lot of matches that FLUDD only sends the opponent upwards because it's adding to their vertical momentum. In most cases, I don't think this has any benefit for Mario. Do the physics for FLUDD need adjusted slightly to compensate for this? Or is this desirable in some cases?

I picked up Ganondorf as a secondary to Mario and my god, I never realised how fun this guy is to play. Everything is just so powerful. It's so satisfying to blast Links and Mega Mans into orbit after they spend all game running and firing projectiles.

I've got to say, I really did not respect Mario's fireball enough. It makes approaches so much easier and helps deal with stuff like Falcon Kick.

Thanks for the tips, guys. It's sad the way back throw sends them so high, meaning you can't use FLUDD. I feel like Mario really has to work for each KO in this game. Hopefully it's just my inexperience.

I'm having real trouble in For Glory finishing off opponents. Once you get them up to a high percentage, how do you finish them?

So were Street Fighter 4 tier lists irrelevant through each of its revisions? Tier lists are not irrelevant just because the game can be patched. Anyway, from a quick play with Ganondorf today, it seems like they cheaped out on him. His model looks poor, his animations are disappointing...

You've been playing this what, two days? That's way too early to start looking at winrates. Give it a couple of hundred matches. But hey, it mightn't go up.

Fludd feels like it actually has some use to me in the demo. I'm not sure if it's just pointless optimism or not, but it does seem to actually have a function, if slight.

In Smash Bros 64, the characters were actually dolls. It's totally realistic in the canon for Mario dolls to exist from multiple game series, just like in real life.

I tried using FLUDD today briefly but I just couldn't find a use for it. Maybe against Ness, it'll prove worthwhile.

I tried a match today (3 actually) and the lag made it unplayable. I was very, very disappointed.
