Ike

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

Like I said:

Ike=Heavy

Marth=Fast

Both of them=Perfect balance

 

[SiD]

I don't think I've ever heard marth being near the words "perfect balance"

 

[dingodilemaster]

I think that Ike is going to speak english, cause he has apeard in an english fire emblem game. He wil possibly become my new favorite character

 

[9bit]

I hope that Ike speaks in english. One of the reasons i didn't play as Marth or Roy, was their japanese voices i couldn't understand. (No Need to translate every thing said by them, i have seen Smash Wiki)

Congrats, you fail at life.

 

[xXIke-SamaXx]

Ike Aether looks cool very cool

and the B move to i think it will be more powerful then roy B

 

[Shuma]

Ike's phire=Roy gone for sure?

 

[silver777]

Ike had just copied Roy!! >:O

 

[moledork]

Topic revived.

Anyways:

Aether FTW. This seems to have been made to be a super attack. There's the glow before the strike, and the whole uber flying motion. Am I right?

wow this person had it right on da money amazing lol

 

[Mr_Hero]

Aether just looks like Kirby's Final Cutter to me

 

[Deleted member]

wow this person had it right on da money amazing lol

If Aether ISN'T his final smash, then what is?

A scary thought.

And shouldn't Ike's fire be blue?

 

[moledork]

yea same here...but i still think its a pretty sweet lookin move

aether is his up special move not his final smash

 

[dingodilemaster]

and the B move to i think it will be more powerful then roy B

I can ensure that. Roy was a medium charcter with slide moving towards heavy.
Ike is just heavy

and do you guys think that there are to many new characters using a sword
Pit
meta knight
and now Ike

ima fan of sword weilding characters so im liking all da swords

 

[_Phloat_]

3 is not to many >_<

Anyways, he is invincible during some parts of his special, which is his recovery move


I Will be learning that timing.

 

[silver777]

sowrds FTW.

Ike ^B = Kirby ^B

>:O

[Celsco]

double post lol

 

[Takeshi245]

Guys, notice how it said Ike's invincible to attacks but not to grabs. If an attack can't get through to him, grabs probably will.

Edit: Forget it. At the last part of his attack, that's when he's vulnerable to attacks and grabs.

 

[bijoukaiba]

After looking at these special moves, I'm definitely feeling more confident about Marth returning. Perhaps Ike will be a Luigified Marth?

... or will Marth be a luigified Ike...?

 

[joepinion]

It's different from Kirby's. It doesn't shoot out a projectile at the end. And I'm sure anyone that touches the sword while it is separated from him gets hit.

Or they'll just be two differenct characters?

 

[Zindura]

Ike isn't likely to be a clone in any way, shape, or form. From the screenies in his profile, it seems like he's wielding his sword a lot more clumsily than Marth, due to it's weight.

Example:

And even though Ike is performing Aether on the ground in today's update, the vertical reach on that looks ridiculous. It seems as high as Zelda's Up+B.

At the same time, it looks like it'll have bad horizontal reach as well. Even if he somehow landed on the ground with that attack, you could dodge the blade and punish him for it.

 

[Zindura]

Most characters don't have Up+Bs that are designed for effective ground combat anyways. I could only appreciate this move's offensive value if you were on a stage with platforms really high up, like Rumble Falls.

Ike could throw the blade and hit someone high above him, and jump up to attack them with the second part of Aether. We don't have an idea of how fast the throw-up, jump, and slash-down are executed, though.

 

[shinypaper]

With his Eruption move he clearly sticks his sword into the ground. I think that it's going to be a terribly slow move. Kind of like when link hits the ground with his dair.

As mentioned before looks a lot like final cutter. I don't know if I'm going to use him anymore especially if he's heavy like a brick.

And it seems like we know a few characters with swords so far, but we don't even know half the players so far. So I'm sure that it will be a small number in comparison to non-sword wielding characters.

 

[MirageofMadness]

Hurray for Ike's special moves! I enjoy aether, but I hope it doesn't wind up being too much like Kirby's up-special, the Final Cutter. As for the neutral/standard special, eruption, is this a magic move? And how does he charge it up? my guess ont the charging is that he jams down his sword and charges the explosion. Is eruption in FE: Path of Radiance? Does anyone know anything about this move?

 

[Zindura]

Eruption is not in FEoR, and I don't believe it's in FE:GoD either.

We don't know much about the nature of it's "charge", either. It might be one of those moves that you charge and execute immediately after, or maybe it could be a storable charge.

All of this is redundant with the Ike:Special Moves thread that exists in Dojo Updates.

 

[E.G.G.M.A.N.]

Yeah, eruption is completely made up. It seems as though it will be one of those "I'mma chargin mah lazer!" B attacks that no one will ever get hit by, but I could be wrong.

 

[Jigglymaster]

Well when you see that attack as a recovery it seems he gains height but not distance just like G&W's b up.

 

[xXIke-SamaXx]

he is not heavy between ike and Espions "the promotion of the rogue in
fire emblem :god "is 3 points in speed

in the real game ike is very fast

he is maybe heavy like roy he is not heavy

And is Eruption a made up move

but ike fire must be blue

and eruption it's a name for a powerful pokemon move groudon can use it

 

[ClarkJables]

****, those are some nice specials. and sakurai also said some heavy characters have moves similar, wonder if that applies to bowser or dk... somin also tells me he isn't going to give us peach till the end of the week now

 

[Super Smash Master]

That probably applies to a bigger character who is yet to be announced. But anyone who says this disproves the fact that Ike is replacing marth and roy, is wrong. Aether is just a fancier version of both of their recover attacks except he slices down afterward. It's not like that was that great of an attack anyway. It didn't even help in recovery that much. And Erruption is obviously a powered up version of Roy's B attack with more fire effects.

 

[xXIke-SamaXx]

Aether it's from FEoR Aether it's Aether And it looks the same in brawl

ok

no more about aether now about eruption k

 

[ShoDan]

i think characters like bowser and dk are getting better becasue of this
maybe brawl wil have all high tier characters, i hope :D

 

[DonkeyPirate]

Erruption is going to work similar to Marth/Roy's shieldbreakers. The longer you hold B the more powerful it will get, but you can still just tap B to get a decet attack out

 

[ClarkJables]

shodan i was thinking the same thing when i saw that

 

[SniperRy]

What do you guys think about the fact that eruption is a stab in the ground like link's arial down a and wether or not it'll have a meteor smash effect in it?

 

[ClarkJables]

dunno, i guess it could work similar to marths in that it is charged but other then that i think it will be original. what i want to know is how do these moves change depending on which sword style ike is using (two handed or 1 handed)

 

[Saph66]

the picture looks like Ike is stabbing the ground with two hands held onto the sword. I hope Ike isnt too heavy and slow, he is supposed to be fast. Atleast at Roy's speed is decent.

 

[helterskelter]

Hmmm to me the sword plant attack reminds me more of DK's Down B attack. They both are sitting ducks but they are surrounded by a forcefield on the ground (Not necessarily in the air)


And this is also a good sign of heavy characters getting a revamp and being more of a force to be reckoned with.
