The thread's not as lively as it used to be for obvious reasons, unfortunately.
You may have missed a few "Xenoblade characters comment on [character] reveal" posts though.

This had to happen at some point. I loved Shulk's reactions for when Robin showed up! :laugh:
We should have the Xenoblade cast commentate over every Smash trailer.
So soon we should be expecting to see a cross of 2 on Shulk's reveal, then once all combinations are done we move onto combinations of 3, and so forth until the whole party commentates on every trailer.

Now that Shulk is in I hope they add Mechanical Rhythm to the song selection list. That is one of my favorite video game tracks.

There is a point at which this should have stopped and we have clearly passed it...
This is great.

I'm late to the party, but I made a Mumkhar one for Shulk's reveal. I'll upload it tomorrow morning my time. Might make an Alvis one if I find the time.

Is it just me or have y'all noticed how a lot of people are complaining about how there are too many sword characters in this game. I'm not sure if I'm the only one but its really annoying me, I mean how is 8 out of 46+ characters a lot. I just thought I would mention this to see if other though the same or not.

Yet people never complain about the amount of hand-to-hand fighters. Logic.

I noticed, and it really annoys me. Shulk and Robin are two of the most unique characters in all Smash Bros. even if they wield swords.

I think people don't mind hand to hand fighters cause it IS a fighting game(i know its classified as a party game, but come on, we all know its a fighting game, its just not super competitive besides Melee and PM), usually those are about people who fight in hand to hand combat. Plus, a "Brawl" usually isn't about sword fighters, but rather a fist fight or something like that. That being said. i'm fine with swordfighters being in the game.

Soul Calibur/Guilty Gear/etc all say hi. And relying on the etymology of "brawl" is really...ah...

Seriously, there's no solid argument, no matter how you look at it. Smash has never had and never will have a quota on characters with a particular fighting style or weapon, people need to grow the **** up and accept that. All Sakurai cares about is what a character can bring to the game. And having a sword doesn't mean a character can't be unique.

Yes, that is exactly what I was thinking!

I made one of those things last Friday, only able to upload now. How'd I do?
He's got rather few lines compared to the rest, but some are excellent.

I'll change the video display image later.

Not sure if enough people are really feeling it in this thread. Not enough feels.
We're conserving our feels so we can fully feel it when we get to actually play as him. We'll be really feeling it 24/7 when that comes around.

Oh don't worry! I'm really feeling it! I am waiting to finally behold the power of the Monado in Smash! I just can't believe that we are in the final stretch of the waiting game!

Video has one downvote already :laugh:

I'm planning to make an Alvis one. He has a lot more voice clips than Mumkhar does, but unfortunately it's all vague kind of stuff.

Nice to know you two are really feeling it @ AlvisCPU AlvisCPU @Brawler610. My eyes will be glued to the streams to watch Shulk in action come this weekend.
If I'm not one of the users who are "Really Feeling It" I don't know who is I've been liking all of y'all's posts.

Let's storm the forum suggestions thread and ask for "likes" to be changed to "feels".

Let's see how many scrubs keep walking into Shulk's down smash and complain he's broken.
I'm pretty sure plenty of people are already convinced that he's broken now because of Zipzo's impressions. I'm too ready for the "Shulk is OP" topics.

Has no one made this yet? I'm surprised. I thought they were standard.

Haha! Just perfect.

Wait what?? Wow, I wonder what warranted that...

I am definitely feeling it. I just changed my mii plaza mii to my Shulk mii, changed my saying to "SmashHYPE!SHULK!" and changed my outfit to the 3ds one so it looks like Shulk is popping out of it..

Oh yes. All of my free time will be Shulk Smash time.

If I saw it, I would've locked it (more than likely consider deleting it completely :troll:). Preemptive topics like those don't do any good around here, especially with little evidence to really go by.

On another note...woop, woop, I've reached 3k posts

If I'm really feeling his taunt where he's really feeling it, that will be the only taunt I can use.

People will believe anything without stopping and thinking for a second whether or not it's truly overpowered.

Like there's a difference between claiming that Link is OP because of his Spin Attack and Meta Knight is OP because he has a lot of advantages like lightning fast attacks with surprising power and the best recovery in the game. For Shulk, I'd easily wager that he's powerful but is balanced out by the learning curve the character has.
