Heir to the Monado. Shulk General Discussion/Social Thread

[Spazzy_D]

I wonder if there will be any capacity for Xenoblade Chronicles items. Seems unlikely, but we'll see.

Spike Gem. When you equip it you get the spike effect, and enemies that attack you will take damage themselves.

Bad memories.

I'm just sitting here trying to figure out how Shulk was able to fight Link and Marth using the regular Monado.

Because he is a BAMF.

Well, some aspects of canon do have to be set aside for any character to really work in Smash Bros., but if you do want to get technical about it Link and Marth aren't exactly people of Bionis, are they?

 

[Rioni]

Been a while since I've been here, but I'm so happy that Shulk's officially confirmed. I literally squee'd a bit once I read that he was announced (I couldn't squee as loud 'cause I was in class at the time lol)

I'm definitely gonna play as him a lot, yes siree~!

He's The Incredible Shulk! Nothing will stop him from having his dreams be fulfilled.

You know how we joked that Shulk would be the worst character against non-robots due to the Monado not harming homs? I just thought about that and...

Spoiler: Actual Spoilers

The Monado can't harm the people with Zanza's blood, and since none of the other characters are created by Zanza, the Monado can slice through them, like a hot knife through butter!

Pretty neat attention to detail.

Spoiler

Then Shulk dittos would be an absolute nightmare to watch! I can't wait to see them give 1% damage to each other.

They aren't homs, so it makes sense. "People of the Bionis," right?

 

[CardiganBoy]

What do you guys think could work for Xenoblade items?

As random as it sounds, i think random Nopons could work as thrown items, in reference of that Riki's introduction cutscene:

Maybe with flower effect when you hit your opponent with them to reference Riki's arts.

 

[lavadeira]

I can't take the hate anymore.

Aside from that, I'm hoping one of Shulk's alts has glasses.

 

[Dalek_Kolt]

What was that song playing when they were revealing Shulks' moves? Sorry, haven't played Xenoblade...

So i'm back, I think I should call the doctor, I've been hyped for over 4 hours straight. I don't think this is healthy.

 

[thecharizardf8]

idk if its unhealthy but ive watched this shulk trailer nearly my whole day on repeat. It was our destiny for him to be confirmed

"Please contact your doctor if you experience hype longer than 4 hours"--Commercial for Erect-HYPE Dysfunction.

And now if you'll excuse me, I have a trailer to watch...again...

 

[Jae]

And why is the Monado cut off in the series symbol? Does it appear like this at some point in the game, or is it just a weird decision they made? I don't remember seeing it be that short in any pictures, but I don't know why they would crop it instead of making the entire Monado's silhouette the symbol.

I don't know if anyone had answered this yet, but it's from the game's loading screen:

 

[Greninja'd]

Holy crap that soundtrack is so good. I need to rack up some money to get the New 3DS to get Xenoblade Chronicles.

 

[skstylez]

It feel so great Shulk having his own sub-page now. All those months, years we were hoping he'd be in Smash 4 is finally real.

 

[MooseSmuggler]

Even though we knew he was in thanks to the leak, it still feels surreal to see it be official. He has his own subforum, we now have a trailer and official pictures, and there's now a page for him on the Smash site. It's...incredible. It feels so surreal, and so wonderful. On that note, I feel like watching the trailer again. I JUST CAN'T STOP <3

 

[Meelow]

So yeah, Shulk will be my main alongside Link.

I've been watching people's reaction videos to it all day xD my friends can't even handle me right now.

yes now all the premium members can have him as their post background character xD

just wait till you hear unfinished battle! its the reason I bought the game and now its my favorite game of all time!

 

[kaliskonig]

Man if only Wonder Red made the cut I would have my most wanted 3 under one roof! Robin/Wonder Red/Shulk master race!

 

[Sheddy]

I can't wait for the shulk symbol to be made on ehre so I cam spam it everywhere to show the victory of the bronados

 

[Hokori]

So many people have Shulk avatars. I have to look at usernames since I'm almost unable to identify users by their avatar anymore

 

[Jexulus]

Shulk is such a jerk. I don't like him.

Bowser was just on a jog, minding his own business, and then Shulk jumps out of nowhere and ruins his day.

0/10 Would not watch again.

 

[BluePikmin11]

More Shulk goodness:

Me!

SuperJAZZ

Finn

Allie

 

[Jae]

I used to be hooked on Robin/Lucina's trailer, but man, I just can't stop re-watching Shulk's video, switching constantly between the Japanese and English version.

I really wished I owned my own copy of Xenoblade.. Guess I can wait for the 3DS version.

 

[firebrand38]

I'm very happy Shulk is playable! Cheers to his supporters and those maining him! I plan on having him as a main myself.

The Heart-to-Heart didn't go so well, clearly.

 

[T.R "River"]

It's amazingly satisfying to think....a week ago, we were all just speculating on how Shulk could play out in Smash Bros.....and now look at us. So much can change on such short notice. It's almost strange.....I no longer have to wait for Pics of the Day with the fear of seeing Shulk getting AT'd

as of now, the 3ds version looks low frame rate and kind of muddy. I'd go for the Wii version, it'll only take a couple hours to get in on the hype

I think it'll still be awhile till it is out and if the New 3ds is stronger then the Wii then I think it'll be able to handle it

 

[Hokori]

@ T.R "River" Your signature is seriously like one of the best things ever in history...seriously. Especially since it features Shulk and Robin, my two most wanted newcomers and the two characters I'll more than likely be co-maining (though Shulk will more than likely have priority)

to be fair, this thread was kinda always like that. Sprinkled with Dunbans, Heropons and a few Fioras of course.

 

[TheFearsomeRyan]

There needs to an event where Shulk has to fight Lady Palutena seeing as she's a god and all.

and then there's one lone Gengar

 

[Hokori]

Some people switched up their Shulk avatar, plus, newer people with Shulk avatars have finally shown their faces around the forums. The first part is the main reason why I have to check usernames now. At least until I adjust.

 

[mini paincakes]

I'm kind of dissapointed Reyn wasn't part of his final smash.

But, then again, I used a party of Dunban, Riki and Shulk for most of the game, so that's kind of cool. (it's also arguably the best setup when using Dunban as the main)

Hopefully Reyn is an assist trophy or maybe...

Reyn confirmed?
