It wouldn't be possible to make them carbon copies of what they were in their franchise games since the mechanics differ so much. Their abilities and traits from the franchise games should make an appearance in Smash in order to make them more unique. I fail to see how it's lazy, since taking the time to incorporate the distinctive features in a semi-balanced fashion can't be done if you're lazy. Mario's FLUDD is only one instance in which the move sucks. Look at every other special attack in the game. The FLUDD is an example of a poorly-executed effort to incorporate it into the game. It doesn't represent every other potential move that could be used, or every other move already in the game.
Wouldn't it make more sense for him to release the ghosts from the poltergust, letting them wreak havoc on the map? That would be pretty entertaining. In fact, I'd like it if Luigi got a complete overhaul with moves from Luigi's Mansion, but I don't think that's really likely at all. Down-B as his poltergust is good enough for me.
Yeah, and this could be a chance for King Boo and friends to make an appearance, too. I'm liking this idea.
Then you have misunderstood the concept of Smash. The more elements from the character's respective series they can include, the better.
Because god forbid a character use actual abilities from his actual franchise. That would just be stupid! I mean, what next, Mario shooting fireballs, or Kirby inhaling enemies?
Or we could just remove Kirby and give Jigglypuff a gigantic hammer and the ability to turn into a stone.
:b Jokes aside, while I primarily put gameplay on the forefront, it would do well in the way of fan service if the more important character was given the forefront. We got a character with awesome aerial attacks and cute hats, uninteresting ground game and two complete bogus special attacks... and then another character who they have struggled to make competitive since SSB64 compared to the roster in general. The hammer is kind of bogus as well, though the design is sound and it just needs some tweaking
She has an uninteresting ground game because she was created to be the aerial queen. Don't you think if they gave great ground attacks she would be a little monstrous to fight?
I said interesting. That is not necessarily a statement on capability, so much as moves that are more fun. That said, unless we get hitstun akin the first two entries, I am having a hard time seeing Jiggs thriving off the aerial capability on its own. so I am not opposed to a more adaptable character kit anyways. Not like I am asking for the character to have a strong ground game so much as rounding off the edges and enabling more of their kit. Generally what happens in every fighting game is the more characters you have, the harder it is to keep them balanced and diverse. :/
I agree about the size of the roster and the balancing capabilities.
Then you are in favor of well-executed moves that have been integrated into Smash in a practical and useful way.
All he need is a longer sword, fire arrows, and bombs with a larger area of deflagration.
Yup, same here. But it's kinda rewarding when people totally diss your character and come at you with characters from a much higher tier. And then you utterly destroy them hand them their rears on a plate and they have nothing else to say.
If Link is a heavy, I'm a purple pikmin, bro.XD
