If instead of having Kirby's traditional swallow ability you chose a B attack of another character how do you think that would affect the game? Would any be unbalanced and would you use them or stick with the traditional power stealing?

Let's assume for the sake of argument

* If copying Robin the hat would regenerate instead of going away after the tome ran out
* The Olimar and Rosalina ones work as they do now with disapearing Pikmin and Luma
* Only the other character's standard B specials. (i.e. no Heavenly Light ect.)

In my opinion, most of the copied moves are balanced by Kirby's small size messing up projectiles or his short reach hampering punches but I think Monado Arts would be broken on Kirby with proper use. Jump Art+Multiple jumps, anyone?

Everyone would just pick Shulks. Also, projectiles arent messed up by his small size unless you're standing. He has lower risk using jumps and double jumps than most of the cast.

...Yeah, we would all just pick Shulk's.

EDIT: And projectiles are better on Kirby most of the time. Too close to the ground? Maybe we can hit them on the ledge (e.g., Charge Shot and Aura Sphere). Or maybe we use our multiple jumps for effectiveness (e.g., thunderjolt, fireballs, etc.).
