I fully agree, every defensive move is way too powerful in this build, hope they tweak it.
Just to throw it out there. There was a combo found for Samus that involved stringing Zairs with a couple other moves that I forget repeatedly. Also, many people didn't expect MK to be such a good character in Brawl, let alone virtually broken. Most people felt he was pretty good but not great since he lacked ways to kill. A couple months later and people realized that he has great ways to kill.
Oh, I'm sure there is, but at that point, we're talking about pro's. I was specifically referring to Bowser being OP for Sakurai's intended audience, low to mid-skill. Whether Bowser will fare well against pro's later in the game's lifecycle, like I said, remains to be seen. A random player picking up Samus right now facing off against a random guy using Bowser is probably going to get schooled.
I doubt that's the case at all. The only way certain balancing issues wouldn't be fixed are if there isn't enough time or they don't know about them before release. Even then nowadays there are patch updates for fighting games that can address this, so I wouldn't worry too much They'll figure it out.
There's hope indeed. The E3 build was made in January, so they're far ahead of what they are now. On top of that, they had plenty of feedback from the E3 builds, so who knows, they may still get it right. My major gripe was just that Sakurai somehow thought Samus was the most powerfull in the E3 build when she was clearly not. It makes me question what his idea of "powerfull" really is. It's almost Smash tradition at this point for some characters to be much better than others, so excuse me for my skepticism.
Ah, ok I getcha now.
What made me confused was how the sheik didn't get a second chance in the loser bracket they just dropped the player entirely like 'haha you should've lost sooner.' Weird.
Numerous people have confirmed that even though you can multidodge in midair, it has significantly more lag than in Brawl, and is thus punishable.
This may be true, but Bowser had PLENTY of lag upon landing after that airdodge. Shiek had little to no lag when she landed, so she could've punished Bowser with one of her attacks.. The Shiek player used an up tilt instead of something like her ftilt, so Bowser wasn't punished at all.
Get Smash 3DS. You can get Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire on the eShop when they're released.
I think SSB4 is looking great, but that GIF was really starting to worry me for a second, but thanks for pointing that out! Faith restored in SSB4!
Online tournaments will be the main thing for the 3DS version. Like you were saying, chat rooms and all the other stuff will be used a lot.
While the Wii U will probably still be best for event tournaments at cons and the like, maybe the 3DS will open up the market for online tournaments throughout the year? I mean, it'd be pretty cool to have a 3DS tournament once a month or something, but since 3DS is internet based you could just take your time. a couple matches from the tournament a day or something, you know. At least it'll be easily accessible to everyone.
Maybe. I think the 3DS should have as many tournaments as possible. It doesn't matter in which way they are (local or online), they're still tournaments and will most likely be fun to watch because of the nerfs to defensive gameplay.
