"Pikachu
Shooting Quick Attack into the ground puts Pikachu into a tripped state, where he can immediately roll forward/backward, getup attack, or stand.
Quick Attack cancels into Footstools to compensate."

it's under the spoiler labelled patch level 3

also under that spoiler

"Pikachu
aerial jolt jc delayed 20 frames
grounded jolt "ground" cancel removed
BAir momentum -2 -> -1.8
USmash damage 18 -> 16"

So basically all he got was nerfs, and he wasn't even the best anymore

those jolt cancels were so good and they just decided to kill it completely. I wish they'd just lowered the damage on jolts instead, would've made me still feel good and be able to use them for combos



By the way, Dawson and I are gonna live stream a low-level pit of 100 trials run for paper mario 2 sometime, y'all should watch. And by low level, I mean I've planned out a way to do it right after getting back from glitzville

[the changes + link]

So just because he's not the best he shouldn't recieve nerfs?

those jolt cancels were so good and they just decided to kill it completely. I wish they'd just lowered the damage on jolts instead, would've made me still feel good and be able to use them for combos
Have you tried to do any of what your saying with the new changes? The ground cancel change isn't a removal of the jump cancel, and the jump cancel was delayed because kirby, yes kirby, could make a wall of tjolts with pika hat.

so pikachu was nerfed because of kirby? That's even lamerrr


I'm just saying I thought the whole point of Brawl minus was that if a character was overpowered, they'd bring everyone else up to that level instead of bringing the overpowered character down. Yes I understand that's pretty unrealistic to expect and could easily result in a completely destroyed game, but when they're nerfing characters who aren't even the best, makes me wonder if they changed their philosophy.

I'm not necessarily saying that what they did was a bad change from a competitive standpoint, it's just my opinion that it contradicts the original goal of the project. Which is that if the game is broken, break it until it's fixed.

In my opinion sometimes characters need the nerfs. Characters are supposed to be super good, but they still need to be balanced. Theres necessary stuff like robs bair was ********. If they wanted characters to be too good then they'd put in IC chaingrabs and such.
What they tried to do is get rid of the gimmicks, like bowser as a character, marios metal cap or (maybe) pikachus quickattack cancel? This is all my guesses is all.

In what situations does this actually nerf an action that you would want to do with Pika?

They never changed their philosophy.

It was just never that to begin with. A long time ago they nerfed wolf, because he was insane too.

You could consider that the artistic goal, not the technical one.

arcansi is probably right. might take less work to fix one character than the whole roster
