new video! I made this for every person that supports k rool for smash DLC and since the beginning. Share this video with everyone and start the movement! We will get king k rool in smash once and for all!



...Not gonna lie, I was expecting "One of Us" or "Finest Hour" to burst out about halfway through the video, though. :chuckle:
Good video, nonetheless. I could tell a lot was put into it, and the message is clear: We're not finished yet.

I admit, for a while there, I gave up. As many of you know, I was done, and I said so several times. But ya know what? I'm not quitting so easily. Come what may, but if this ship goes down, I'm coming with it. :seuss:

Pssh, this video is clearly sexist as it only says brothers and doesn't say sisters. Pssh, 0/10 would not recommend.
Jokes!

Btw the song sounds like something from a dramatic action trailer lol. Also you spelled comeback and Kremlings wrong. Its a pretty good video though.

um... whats with all the rage? when I said we should band together I didn't mean like that. Also K. Rool's day isn't until tomorrow.
I didn't rage because of banning together, I raged because you are focusing on chances whereas sakurai is the king of bias and probably won't care who us popular unless it fits his vision!

By the way guys, my sample post if any of you want to use it. If it could be got in nice and early that would be great; timezone differences means the rage will be in full swing by the time I get there.

I've got to say, this is the best argument I've ever seen written up for the addition of any character, in any game. Very nice work.

Also, I'm chuckling all over again thinking back on the various King K. Lone movesets. That was one of the best things to ever happen in this thread, I reckon. :laugh:

This is amazing. I've been working on a write up as well but yours makes mine look like garbage. You managed to address every important point and counter any arguments that people may present. You even thought of some evidence I didn't even think to mention. I need to edit my write up now.

Well this got a spam infraction, I know not to post my opinion anymore, thanks.
It's most likely because it has literally nothing to do with K. Rool, and you're posting in the K. Rool thread.

However there have been other tangents that have nothing to do with K rool that have gone on in this thread and did those people get infractions? No. People have even come in here and spoke about other characters if I'm not mistaken and nothing was done. However cherry picking is cherry picking, I shouldn't be surprised, I'm done.

Goddamn it, the victim card again.
You're on your own here.
It's not the victim card I'm just pointing out hypocrisy. Like how the one girl with Greninja tag swears in every post and isn't reprimanded but like I said cherry picking. Anyway back to King K

Didn't you said that first?:crazy:
I swear...I saw it.
You edited it afterward right?
That was in another post by someone else entirely.

Anyway, for want of discussing something more K. Rool-related: I was lucky enough to find a copy of DK: Jungle Climber sitting in a game shop the other day. I'd much rather play a game designed for a handheld on a handheld, so I picked it up.

I have to ask, am I the only one who can't stand Xananab? If we put aside reasons of plot, for the love of all that is holy, why on Earth didn't K. Rool destroy him on the spot, like any sane person would? :laugh:

Going off-topic isn't a good idea in a character discussion thread and is considered spam. This thread pertains to discussion of K. Rool in Smash 4, or at least conversation tangibly related to the DK series. Everything else would be better off elsewhere. It's harsh, yeah, but the mods are well within their rights to rein in off-topic conversation, especially in a thread that moves at this kinda pace.

I'm curious as to others' input on this matter: if K. Rool was the atypical zoner / trap-heavy character we reckon he'd be, which characters would be his best and worst matchups?

I like the concept that @ DJ3DS DJ3DS (I think? Correct me if I'm wrong here) offered, to wit, that K. Rool is an "anti-meta" character who would beat fast rushdown characters, yet be outmatched by strong heavies. If his playstyle focuses on keeping out fast characters and making it difficult to approach, I think he could shut down fighters like Captain Falcon, who are very fast and strong but have no ranged or reflect options and would suffer extreme difficulty in the matchup if they can't even catch up to K. Rool. If K. Rool had "tough guy armour" like Bowser to a certain threshold, he could even be a counter to Sheik: good luck with your needles and combos there, friend ninja!

By the same token, a character that can just blitz through K. Rool's wall of tricks and traps would be in their element - if the character can approach with ease and has a variety of reactive options to circumvent the obstacle course in their way, well, K. Rool would be in a world of trouble! I think a character like Dedede or Robin, who can zone right back and catch up to projectiles, would be a difficult matchup for K. Rool. It'd definitely make the metagame more dynamic and intense, that's for sure~

This just makes me want to play Gordo Tennis with K. Rool all the more, now. :laugh:

Somehow, I imagine some of the match-ups that aren't too favourable for Dedede might be an issue for K. Rool as well, at least as far as reflecting projectiles and that sort of thing goes. I don't think those things are insurmountable, anyway, though.

Shoo, you're "done", remember :p?

Seriously, yes, it has. It has been discussed as a grab, I believe, and iirc maybe a special.
I was done talking about my situation, please don't make jokes at the expense of others. And okay, but I think it would be better suited as a special.

It could work as a special, but when there's so much content to draw from for just four moves, it could just as easily work as a grab.

It'd work exactly the way it does in-game, too: he sucks the opponent up and then whacks them with the butt of the gun or shoots them away!

As a special, I see it as a command grab kind of special : can grab people when sucked in, absorb projectiles to shoot them later (like villager).

Depending on how quick it is to use repeatedly, or if it can be used continuously for a short time, that might add an interesting element to the match-up against Arrow arrow arrow boomerang bomb arrow arrow Link...

Using Bowser Jr as an example, I've thought about and maybe neutral B being a vacuum method and instead of a shooting method would be satisfactory.
