i just thought of the BEST assist trophy (no joke)

[nindgod]

So, you know how assist trophies do damage and disappear and stuff. Well.. what if, when you got an assist trophy - let's say the character is Tortimer, and so he just winks and flies off.

"What a crappy assist trophy" you think.

But then when Mario launches you off the stage and you are just about to die, super Tortimer flies in, and returns you safely back to land, with a 10 second invincibility handicap. That would completely turn around a game for some people.

Are you so sure about 10 seconds? I mean, seriously, spawn invincibility is 2 seconds and it already feels like forever for them to become normal again.

 

[lavamage]

I say 3 seconds at the most

 

[Yaya]

10 seconds is an eternity in Smash, maybe 2 seconds.

Other AT that mght do similar things, could be Balloon Fighter, or the flying shyguy things from Yoshies Island that wear the goggles. So after you activate them, maybe they stay out in the sky for so many seconds, and is you die before they dissapear than they bring you back with now stock loss and you have the same percent before you died, with no invicibility frames.

5 seconds maybe? good idea tho

 

[heypancho]

Or the character you are playing with is switched with your opponent's character :O!!!!! Vice-versa :O!!

 

[Hmaal]

Yeah really nice idea.

 

[HolyNightmaren]

Why does that sound like what Tails would actually do if he was an Assist trophy?

Good idea, but Bokuto's timing is better. Still, Brawl is new, and you can live longer, so I'd say anywhere from 5 to 10 seconds invincibility would be good.

5 is too long, it's like doubling tripling the invincibility when you respawn

 

[Akiak]

Sorry but where does Super tortimer come from? He cant fly!
But with a real flying character like the condor that brings the ice climbers to the stage in the intro would be much better. Besides Tortimer is in the background of Smashville.

That would be pretty clever. And as for invincibility 2.5 seconds would be fine. 10 would be pretty funny though. Not like simple invincibility frames but Super Tortimer giving you invicibility (like a star)
